About this episode
Sophia Bush and Congressman Ro Khanna discuss the interconnected crises threatening democracy and public trust.
What if the most dangerous threat to democracy isn’t hidden — but unfolding in plain sight? Sophia and Congressman Ro Khanna connect the dots between the Epstein files, ICE abuses, and voter suppression, arguing these aren’t isolated crises but part of a deeper “culture of impunity.” Congressman Khanna reveals what even lawmakers aren’t being shown and why public trust is collapsing in real time. With everything on the line, Congressman Khanna answers the trillion dollar question: what can we do about it? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
