“Now, I get known as, they are saying, ‘Oh, Ro, do not pander to the administration; do not appease the administration,'” Khanna mentioned Sunday. “Anytime I help Joe Biden, individuals know I’ve disagreements with the president. However here is what I consider: The celebration must be disciplined. He is our chief; he is the president.
