Progressive Democrats eyeing a 2028 campaign – like AOC and California Rep. Ro Khanna – are taking a new stance on Israel: no more military aid for offensive or defensive systems, including the Iron Dome.

Rep. Ro Khanna joins Mehdi Hasan for a for a wide-ranging interview where Mehdi challenges him in a back-and-forth on the Iron Dome, asking why send any aid to an apartheid state.

Watch the full video to see Khanna also speak to Mehdi about whether Trump should be impeached for his threats against Iran, whether he thinks there’s a cover up around allegations that Trump abused a minor in the Epstein files, and taking credit for Pam Bondi being fired.

NOTE: This interview was recorded before the 2-week ceasefire was announced.

    Two key points for earning my vote: One, no military aid to Israel. Full stop. Two, full investigations and prosecution of ALL of these cheese dick MAGAts. You did crime? Ok, now time for jail.

      You know I’ve been thinking about this lately. The accusations around litmus tests, gate-keeping, etc, mostly trying to blame leftists for the failures of the Harris campaign.

      Like, if we’re going to catch the blame for saying we have standards for whom we’re going to vote for, maybe just lean into it.
