Ro Khanna on Stopping the Iran War, Taking on the ‘Epstein Class’ and Taxing Billionaires

US Representative Ro Khanna of California helped force Donald
Trump to release the Epstein files. Now he wants to end the war
with Iran. Earlier this month, the Democratic Congressman joined
forces with Representative Thomas Massie of Kentucky, a
Republican, on a War Powers resolution seeking to halt the
military action, though it ultimately failed in the
GOP-controlled House.

Speaking to Mishal Husain almost three weeks after the US and
Israel began coordinated attacks on Iran, Khanna says he believes
that opposing war in the Middle East and taxing
billionaires could unite progressives and disaffected Trump
voters.
