I'm pretty sure these guys are taking the $$$$. Him, Fetterman, Blumenthal, etc. Either that or they are saying this shit under duress because they're being threatened.

Which is exactly what Biden did, every single day!!!

No one has a problem with innovation. The issue is billionaires buying elections and every politician on both sides of the aisle. Sheesh

“A pretty cool thing” that’s degrading.

I love space exploration I refuse to let that brainwash me into thinking our future success depends on letting billionaires break rules and do whatever they want This is OUR country and constitution, we don't rent our rights or lives

Smart move to go all-in on billionaire worship before the Trump administration even takes office. Just fundamentally good politics. As we all know, Americans always love their presidents 100% or the time and there will be no blowback whatsoever.

Screw him.

You know who built things? The Biden administration. The Bipartisan Infrascture Law built 74,000 things-- bridges, roads, pipes, wifi. Not as sexy as a rocket ship, but benefits many more people.

I am not listening to a traitorous wanna be tech bro. Ro Khanna is a loser

Hey Fremont…you need to primary this one

Sure Jan. Corrupt media has nothing to do with it. Nothing.

@rokhanna.bsky.social sucking up to Musk is nauseating. He is owned by the tech bros.

Every liberally minded person needs to unsubscribe, unfollow, and stop commenting or sharing the content from any of these “news organizations”. We need to support and finance new sources of information.

🤮

Hadris had a plan to grow small businesses to record numbers. Small businesses are innovators. This guy is talking in a vacuum.

How about if the Democratic party celebrated all the great stuff that Joe Biden did for this country? If they had bothered to do that before the election, we may not be in this mess. Assholes

Fuck Ro Khanna.

Ro needs to go.

Khanna is such a dope: I like Space becuz people like Space. No questioning of why are we not just subsidizing but direct funding a space race to nowhere. Investing less in a unproductive series of excursions (who's moving their businesses there?) & more in earthly productive enterprises is unasked.

This is an unserious statement from an unserious rep. Doing things because people think it’s “cool” isn’t going to solve anything

Just saying I was excited about and proud of the buildout of clean energy projects of the last four years.

He is very confused. She was going to give 50k for new businesses. This dude seems like he just wanted a tv spot to slam the dem party. What a stupid thing!

I wonder what the average american thinks of a person who hands out his samples to people to have his babies.

What the fck is he talking about?! The success of Elmo and the other tech entrepreneurs is mostly, if not completely, due to policies championed by democrats. But Elmo, now that he made it, wants to eliminate those policies…

If “weak sauce” took human form…

well ain't that a whole bucket of drivel

1. Messaging 2. Messaging 3. Messaging

Dems just rebuilt our manufacturing base from basically scratch and you couldn’t figure out how to celebrate that and make it cool. But you fall for Elon’s vaporizer. And he’s not in your district anymore, is he?

Yeah Democrats! Stop disparaging rockets!

I thought we were....

Seems like khanna is moving closer to the r party

*taxpayer funded

You can't make me celebrate elmo, sorry.

Musk's only contribution is writing checks to pay people who know what they're doing

Hell is coming, and leaders are still in fantasyland. That's why we can't get an investigation into the 2024 election. Justice failed all term, and we will pay for generations.

Here’s what I heard, ‘blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah, blah’ I watched with no sound!

So what if they think rockets are cool? Do they think broken government is cool? Can they differentiate between being a fan and being a consumer?

That statement makes more sense if he had said BELOW average American. And who also does things like offer sperm to women to denigrate them. Or plays Diablo a lot.

Where has Khanna been the past four years? Just look at Biden's push to get the Baltimore bridge rebuilt.

It’s internalized classism— believing that everyone who is richer than you is smarter, hardworking, and more successful. This is what happens when we build a system where only trust fund babies succeed.

Because most voters don't have a college degree and are frustrated with the status quo, Democrats need to harken back to their roots in economic populism, IMO. heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p/december-4...

This is how MAGA infiltrates the Dem Party. Dems need to immediately do something about this.

Ro is just another of Elons sycophants.

I just want a democratic party that doesn't collaborate with fascists.

Such a pussy.

The media hates us.

He is the worst.

You know who's been putting rockets up into space for over 50 years? THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT. But somehow, we all *hate* the government?

🤦‍♂️

Oratory from another Rich bastard. (Sigh)

What is the over/under on the number of congressional Dems who will have switched parties by this time next year? Because I’m betting it’s a non-zero number.

The democrats should be screaming it’s the big ‘ol federal gub’mint that subsidizes those cool trips to space for the billionaires - make them pay (taxes,etc.) literally & figuratively- class warfare & NASA is rad

No question we need to tax wealth ..

Obviously he was playing to the dumbs who get all wet over rockets. When has entrepreneurial activity been discouraged by the Dems? The U.S. is an economy, not a society. Both parties are in it for the dollars. Repubs just don’t care about human and environmental damage. Dems care a bit.

He was always a plant

Propaganda, propaganda, propaganda. It’s NOT about hero worship except for a relatively small number of macho and religious crazy people. The election was lost (not won) based on propaganda, not on ideas.

Such a ‘pick me’ boy. FFS.

DNC needs new leadership.

Cool, who have we held to account in the past 4 years? All I've seen is money and power slow walking justice until it grinds to a halt or pardons get issued. I want offenders in cuffs, perp walks, charges filed, speedy trials, and real consequences with long prison terms. I want justice dammit!

entrepreneurship… such as internment camps

Innovation should uplift everyone, not just a privileged few.

Why? I haven’t seen any comments saying why this statement is whacky, just a bunch talking about some of his other statements. Are we not able to isolate this?

PR bunk.

Putting rockets in orbit and landing on Mars IS a very cool thing. There was even this Democrat guy named John Fitzgerald Kennedy . . .

Someone needs to challenge him in the next primary. He sounds like he’s been bought.

Yep. And landing one is so fucking hard! It amazes me every time. Still, Musk is an a-hole. He has led important scientific and industry advances. Both things can be true.

Didn't he use to be a liberal?

Fuuuuuck that guy. Every time he opens his mouth he's basically saying, "Yay big tech. It can't do anything wrong. Whatever it wants I support. Gotta get campaign funds somehow right?"

I really hate this guy!

Average American here. I didn't think that was cool when Branson and Bezos were talking about it first.

This suggests have no clue why they lost or what to do now.

I would agree, except I don't watch cable news anymore, so I can't turn them off. But, definitely ✌️

...hard pass on trying to make Leon more palatable. His own children hate him, FFS.

I thought that’s what DEMS did, among a range of other things like support the middle class and the vulnerable 🤔

His voice was kind of muffled from his head being up Elon's ass.

The more I hear Khanna, the more I realize how out of touch he is.

Not This American .

There is nothing wrong with what democrats believe in. Or their candidates. Can’t you guys figure out that an equal amount of voters in the US are just spoiled , racist , tribal, prone to cults, prone to conspiracies, love criminals, hate others and some just mean people. They are trump

I thought it was pretty cool when NASA, funded by we the people, put rockets into space and billionaires paid taxes.

I'm all in on holding people to account. My motto is "Let the truth be known and justice be done".

So he thinks the average American is a f***ing child? Seriously??? Yeah build rockets so I can go woahhhh🙄

YES. This explains everything. "I'm not just a tool, I'm also a suck-up" said Ro.

Bingo.

Glad I quit watching MSNBC so I don't have to watch Khanna stanning Elmo. This average American thought NASA was cool.

The quislings come forth

Translate: "The average 10 year old, they think that someone who puts rockets up into space, that's a pretty cool thing." Your country is fucked up.

No one has to accept his framing of things, it's just solidly bullshit. The Dems have endorsed and funded dozens of job creating efforts these last 4 years while the GOP worked tirelessly to elect Trump who will kill America.

Pretty sure the average American wants their kids to be fed and their parents to have appropriate and affordable healthcare more than rockets, but maybe I'm out of touch

In the 1930s, the average German thought someone who builds the Autobahn, that's a pretty cool thing. And then came the Holocaust and World War II and national and global destruction.

Democrats build infrastructure. The reason that the brains of Space X, biotechnology, and technology live in California is because the smart people are more liberal. Khanna would know that if he talked to people who live in his Bay Area district.

What is the infrastructure law that democrats fought for and that’s drastically changing for the better everything from airports to rail to highways? I think every attempt I’ve read as to why we lost is nonsensical. We lost because too many of us are sick puppies. Cultists really. Can’t see truth.

This guy makes increasingly idiotic statements every day. DINO.

Oh Jen Psaki we thought we knew you lassie

I’m pretty average and I think he is an absolute danger to democracy, general terrible person, pulling the ladder up behind him to end programs he benefited from that could help others.

What a disgusting disappointment. Khanna denigrating all Americans and the party in one comment shows where his loyalty lies. Psaki should have shut him down

I hope Jen Psaki gets canned and works where she belongs- the RNC.

Putting rockets in to space, cool. Universal healthcare, bad. That is why America is screwed

Oh, he is TERRIBLE.

Psaki mute while Rep. Khanna lies! Biden the most PRO-HI TECH POTUS in history! Biden out to make the U.S. World LEADER in Semi-Conductors and the largest manufacture of computer Chips thru the CHIPS and Science Act! It would have also spurred a BOOM in CLEANER ENERGY and created thousands of JOBS!

Oh, millions of americans lick those boots. They all think they are one slot pull or scratch off ticket away from being the next Bezos. Or their “hustle” culture.

Is where @rokhanna.bsky.social sucks up to Miusk?

Groan…..

Giving a meglomaniac power thirsty billionaire citizen with authoritarian rightcleaning tendencies the keys to global communications and space exploratuin seems like a very bad idea for humanity and security.

I wish he was still here. He could update it with Whitey on Mars. m.youtube.com/watch?v=goh2...

"PICK ME, ELON! PICK ME!" - Ro Khanna, probably.

I’m still wondering how the pew-pews from the army men launched into space will work. And also? Who are they going up to fight?

Why is the answer always to play the GOP game? How about you stop working to the lowest common denominator & focus on reversing the decades of damage done to education. Then maybe we dedicate yourselves to slowing the steep decline toward idiocracy. It’s not about the message. You need to do shit.

The Democrats need to get this joker off the TV and primary him. They are bleeding their own base off with this garbage. I'll never vote for another Democrat if this is what they represent.

Bread and circuses and the easy down is apparently what gets the electorate out

Access to quality basic services- what a concept 🥹
