This Congressman Went From Republican to Independent. But How "Independent" Is He?

In this interview, Mehdi challenges U.S. Congressman Kevin Kiley on his decision to leave the Republican Party, specifically asking him whether it was because he is now running for re-election in one of the five California districts Governor Gavin Newsom gerrymandered in favor of Democrats.

Asks the tough questions

Gets great guests and is unafraid to ask the tough questions that listeners need to know. I always learn something new or get great perspective listening to the pod.
Can we cover something in addition to Israel/AIPAC?

I appreciate Mehdi’s perspective on most things, even Israel and AIPAC, but literally the last 4 shows in a row have had one of those as the main issue. It’s a bit much given everything else happening.
Because face palming hasn’t produced better results

Degan J.

Literally interviewing an Iranian congressperson, he can pronoun Iran (eh rahn) correctly but then continually, repeatedly, and incorrectly pronounces Iranian as “I rain ian”. EVEN IN THE FACE OF A CONGRESSPERSON WHO REPEATEDLY PRONOUNCES Iranian CORRECTLY AS “Eh-Ron-ian”. Mehdi’s own name follows this syllable structure and it’s “meh-de”. Everyone should just call this man “May Dee” until he figures it out.
Right Wing Mehdi?

Caught you on the Trigger worms and although you made good points about Biden’s strong economy and Trump’s Jan 6 pardons you came up light in two areas. First you parroted the right wing talking point that Biden only beat Trump because of Covid. Trump’s first term was a disaster long before Covid and Biden built a historic 81 million vote coalition led by black women while also flipping many white men to mop the floor with Trump by 7 million. Also you failed to castigate Mamdani who made a fool of himself promising to be Trump’s worst enemy only to go to the White House to smooch Trump’s butt giving him a photo opp with his lame Ford to City props on the eve of Trump bombing Iran. Mamdani looked like a lackey.
