Podcast Bro Theo Von Questions How 'America First' Trump Really Is Amid Potential Iran War
HuffPost
The podcaster who helped lift Trump's voice to younger male voters during the 2024 presidential election told Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.), “It feels like we are just working for Israel.”
Popular podcast host Theo Von joined Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna (Calif.) Friday in taking a hard stance against potential U.S. involvement in the Israel-Iran conflict.
Khanna appeared on Von’s podcast “This Past Weekend” to discuss several topics, from foreign affairs to AI. At one point in the segment, Khanna promoted the War Powers Resolution, a bipartisan bill he introduced with Republican Rep. Thomas Massie (Ky.) aimed at prohibiting U.S. armed forces from unauthorized hostilities in Iran.
During his discussion with Von, Khanna noted several people in MAGA’s base who have been vocal about the U.S. not going to war with Iran, including Tucker Carlson and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (Ga.). Von agreed with the two conservatives, stating, “this is a horrible idea.”
“Yeah, people say, ‘Well, you don’t know a ton about the Middle East.’ Like, that’s fine. I don’t want people I know, my friends, getting called up. I don’t want the children of my friends getting called over to die,” Von said. “I don’t even understand how it’s an option.”
Von, who had Donald Trump on his podcast last year, helped the president reach younger male voters during the 2024 presidential election.
