How to Actually Drain the Swamp (feat. Rep. Ro Khanna)

09 May 2025

Description

Congressman Ro Khanna joins Jess to talk about reclaiming “Drain the Swamp” from the far right, why he thinks Democrats need to refocus on economic leadership, and what it means to be a “pro-growth progressive.” They get into his bipartisan strategy, his not-so-subtle ambitions, and what he’d do if he were at the top of the ticket.  Follow Jessica Tarlov, @JessicaTarlov.  Follow Prof G, @profgalloway.Follow Raging Moderates, @RagingModeratesPod.

Welcome to Raging Moderates. I'm Jessica Tarlow. And today I've got Congressman Ro Khanna with me. He represents California's 17th district right in the heart of Silicon Valley. He's known for being a bold progressive, but also someone who knows how to work across the aisle when it counts. Whether it's taking on corruption in D.C.

with his Drain the Swamp Act or promoting what he calls economic patriotism, he's pushing for a Democratic Party that's both idealistic and grounded. And he's not exactly subtle with his ambitions. He's got a clear vision for the party's future and maybe even his own. Congressman Khanna, it's great to have you here. Welcome to the show.

93.295 - 94.256 Congressman Ro Khanna

Oh, I'm honored to be on.
