Ro Khanna

It is you who has let them down. I cannot believe we have someone like you in that role--had someone like you.

You ordered--you said, OK, the National Guard should go out. It took 36 minutes before that order was implemented.

How can you talk about this being--you doing everything perfect when you are not even aware of the 36 minutes that took place before you----

Is it your testimony that you refuse to apologize to the American public for what happened?

Your pugnacious style is not going to override the democratic process.

Will you at the very least apologize to the American public for what happened on your watch?

I have never been more offended on this committee by a witness statement than yours.

This hearing is long overdue and I am really grateful to all of you for helping educate us on this and spur us to action.

We need universal health care. We need Medicare for all. We need equal resources.

I think it would be a mistake to let him back on this early, there`s still a threat in terms of the big lie he`s still promoting that but a few months after the January 6 sensitive just seems too soon to me and I do think it would allow…

I think that would be a very worthy project for the Congress, in a bipartisan way.

I wonder if any of the panelists have followed the bipartisan effort that Senator Schumer, Senator Young, Representative Gallagher, and I [have undertaken] with the Endless Frontiers Act.

This is not some clever scheme to avoid taxes. This is flat-out cheating. People who don`t pay the taxes that they`re owed.

President Biden says let`s actually tax the appreciation and capital gains just like most people have to pay -- That raises $400 billion.

Thank you, Representative Ocasio-Cortez, and for your leadership earlier this week in the reintroduction of the Green New Deal.

Would you be fine using standard accounting practices for every other industry for the oil and gas industry? Can you commit to that today?

The answer is it's over seven years. And what the intangible drilling deduction does is for oil companies, they get to deduct expenses on the first year for seven years.

Mr. Khanna, I listened very carefully to your statement because I was perplexed when you said that there was no special fossil fuel subsidy.

We stand with the workers. We stand with those who are job creators.

The argument that the fossil fuel subsidies don't exist is simply factually false. It's a lie.

When we're going to have these conversations, I just hope we could have conversations based on facts, based on data.

We need inclusive and representative laws to make sure that we can close some of these gaps.

It's saying that we need to define the market in a way that is going to promote dignity for all individuals.

If, as some of my colleagues suggested, that discrimination would not be in the interest of the free market, then what was the need for the civil rights law?

This is just a totally manufactured concern.
