Next, Brad is joined by Congressman Ro Khanna. The two discuss his new book, "Dignity in a Digital Age: Making Tech Work for All of Us." In the book, Rep. Khanna offers a revolutionary roadmap to facing America’s digital divide, offering greater economic prosperity to all. In Khanna’s vision, “just as people can move to technology, technology can move to people. People need not be compelled to move from one place to another to reap the benefits offered by technological progress” (from the foreword by Amartya Sen, Nobel Laureate in Economics).
Representative Khanna sits on the House Budget, Armed Services, and Oversight and Reform committees and is first vice chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus. He also serves as an Assistant Whip in the Democratic Caucus.
His Twitter handle is @RepRoKhanna.
Finally, Brad is joined by his Executive Producer, Mark Grimaldi. The two analyze former President Trump proposing a drastic expansion of presidential power, as well as the Koch Brothers continuing to do business in Russia, despite Putin's invasion of Ukraine.
Mark Grimaldi has been a progressive political activist for the past 12 years. He volunteered for the campaigns of President Obama (2008 and 2012), Senator Bernie Sanders (2016), Secretary Hillary Clinton (2016), and President Joe Biden (2020). Mark is also involved in campaign finance reform efforts around the country, and philanthropic efforts for Cancer research. His Twitter handle is @MarkJGrimaldi.
