32. Ro Khanna & Massie worked together on sponsoring the bill
Wed Nov 19, 2025, 02:10 PM
Nov 2025

And MTG worked aggressively with them to get it through. Trump has let it be known he hates Massie & MTG and will get his wealthy donors to primary them.

Top Libertarian podcasters who have millions of views are backing Massie & MTG against Trump. And top Republican podcasters - Candace & Tucker very into Massie & MTG. . Candace apologized to her audience for telling them to vote for Trump. (Candace had the number one podcast in the world this week because of her Charlie Kirk murder sleuthing)

MTG has a good chance for the Republican VP spot because Republicans like how involved she is in Epstein case and young Republicans like her anti-war, anti genocide views.


Ro Khanna is getting very popular with the young Democrats especially after co sponsoring this bill. He’s active on X, ( one post of his got 23 million views) goes on lots of podcasts and live streams, does town halls, roundtables in colleges. He knows how to promote himself to the youth the way Mamdani does.

The Epstein files bill would not have passed without the work of Congressman @RoKhanna.

It's a rarity discharge petitions reach 218 signatures.

It's even rarer for them to pass the House and the Senate in one day.

NEW - I spent yesterday with @RoKhanna, as *his bill* passed for the Epstein files release. He explained how he did it, and what that means:

“On one of the biggest things, which is getting MAGA on board, it’s not just ideas. I’m able to get things done.” https://cnn.com/2025/11/19/politics/epstein-files-ro-khanna
