Ro Khanna: 'The Most Dangerous Man in America'
At 28:00 · chapter starts 27:00
This is the episode's main event. Bongino plays a clip of Khanna explicitly promising subpoenas and investigations of Musk, the Oversight Committee, the Judiciary Committee — the whole apparatus weaponized against a private citizen for the crime of running DOGE. Bongino then pulls up Khanna's old Twitter post calling for Amazon to shut down Parler, exposing the 'free speech' framing as a lie. Then the gut punch: Khanna, the anti-wealth crusader, has a median estimated net worth of $232.7 million.[1] The segment closes with Bongino's framework — Democrats don't run on ideas, they run on eliminating obstacles — and Khanna as its purest current example. He contrasts Khanna's treatment of Musk (investigation, subpoenas) with his treatment of a Maine Democratic Senate candidate with a Nazi tattoo (grace, redemption).

Ro Khanna openly called for subpoenas and investigations of Elon Musk the moment Democrats retake power. Bongino argues this isn't about ideas — it's about eliminating an obstacle to concentrated government power, and it's exactly the kind of government weaponization Democrats claimed to oppose under Trump.
Ro Khanna claimed that Elon Musk possibly sentenced 4.5 million children around the world to death by dismantling USAID.
Ro Khanna acknowledged that Elon Musk created 4,400 millionaires but argued that also justified holding him accountable for USAID cuts.
