Sen. RO Khanna EXPLODES Over Trump-MBS Meet amid Epstein votes, Roasts him over America First policy

Oneindia

Congressman Ro Khanna came down heavily on Donald Trump’s meeting with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, arguing that the focus should instead be on supporting survivors of Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse and safeguarding American citizens. Khanna said “America First” must prioritize victims’ rights at home and pointed to bipartisan momentum for confronting corruption and pursuing accountability in the Epstein case.    #RoKhanna #Trump #MBS #EpsteinSurvivors #AmericaFirst #EpsteinScandal #BipartisanSupport #USPolitics #Congress #EpsteinCase #PoliticalDebate #BreakingNews #PoliticalUpdate  Also Read  US President Trump Threatens To Sue The BBC For Up To $5 Billion :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-president-trump-threatens-to-sue-the-bbc-for-up-to-5-billion-7917341.html?ref=DMDesc  Donald Trump's H-1B Visa Policy: 'Come to US, Train Americans, Go Home' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/donald-trump-h-1b-visa-policy-come-to-us-train-americans-go-home-7915151.html?ref=DMDesc  Donald Trump Admits Shortage of Skilled Workers in US, Says “We Need Foreign Talent” Amid Visa Crackdown :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/donald-trump-admits-shortage-of-skilled-workers-in-us-says-we-need-foreign-talent-amid-visa-crack-7915017.html?ref=DMDesc    ~ED.194~HT.408~

00:00Now, as we are here today, I saw on CNN that the president is meeting with the Saudi Prince.

00:08You know what America First means to me?

00:11How about meeting with the survivors?

00:13How about making sure that America's girls are not being raped?

00:18That's what it means to be America First, not going and just meeting with Saudi princes.

00:24You know, I am so honored to be here and working together with Congressman Thomas Massey, who's

00:31shown so much courage and principle, and I'm so honored to be here next to Congresswoman

00:36Marjorie Taylor Greene and Congresswoman Nancy Mace.

00:41I was telling someone, they said, what did you learn through this process?

00:44I said, sometimes we have to see people not just through their caricature.

00:50And I had caricatures of Representative Greene and Representative Massey and Representative

00:57Mace.

00:58But what I saw is they cared as Americans and human beings.

01:04And they stood with courage.

01:07And they looked at this not from politics.

01:10They looked at this as what is right.

01:13And I'm proud today to be a member of Congress.

01:15I'm proud to work with them, and I'm proud of what we are showing this country is possible.

01:23That if we actually care about American values, maybe we can overcome some of the bitter divides

01:28in this country.

01:29If we don't care about just getting the credit and maybe work together, we could actually

01:36care about forgotten and abandoned Americans like the survivors that testified today.

01:43I was so moved by their testimony.

01:45How can you hear their testimony as all of us have heard, see their tears, see them holding

01:50up photos at the age of 14 and think that they're not telling the truth?

01:57This is not politics.

01:58This is humanity.

02:00Sometimes we get into these chambers and we forget what happened of how we grew up.

02:05Most of us, we grew up, we went to barbecue.

02:07We went to Little League games.

02:09We went to church or temple.

02:13We didn't fly around in private jets and go to a rape island.

02:17We didn't buy off politicians and tell them to keep quiet.

02:22We didn't think that it was normal to abuse or rape young girls.

02:28And then they're saying, well, we don't know if they were 18 or 22.

02:31Come on.

02:33It's rotten.

02:35Then they say, well, just care about the price of eggs.

02:37Just care about the price of health care.

02:39You know what's more important than that?

02:41American values.

02:43These rich, greedy men abused American values.

02:48They abused what's sacred about this country.

02:50They abused what built this country.

02:53I yield a gentleman an additional minute.

02:56And it is time that they're going to have a reckoning.

02:59The Epstein class is going to go.

03:03And the reason they're going to go is because the progressive left and the MAGA right and

03:06everyone in between is finally waking up against this rotten system.

03:12And when people are united, when people work across the aisle, amazing things can happen

03:18because the American people are kind and good and decent.

03:22So it's an honor, Congressman Massey, to have worked with you.

03:25And I salute particularly the courage of Marjorie Taylor Glein, Lauren Boebert, and Nancy Mace.

03:32None of this would have been possible without their courage in standing up on the petition

03:37and for what they did.
