From FTC to NYC with Lina Khan
In the wake of Zohran Mamdani’s historic election in New York City, Jon is joined by Lina Khan, former Chair of the Federal Trade Commission and newly appointed co-chair of the mayor-elect’s transition team. Together, they discuss what tools the government has — both federally and locally — to advance policies that benefit consumers, examine how corporate interests are prioritized at the expense of a competitive market, and consider what it will take to build an economy that delivers for working people. Plus, Jon talks about the Epstein files and Jewish space lasers!
