The guest host for today's show is Brad Bannon. Brad runs Bannon Communications Research, a polling, message development and media firm which helps labor unions, progressive issue groups and Democratic candidates win public affairs and political campaigns. His new show, 'Deadline D.C. with Brad Bannon,' airs every Monday from 3-4pm ET.

Brad is first joined by Congressman Ro Khanna, who is serving his second term representing California’s 17th Congressional District, located in the heart of Silicon Valley.  Representative Khanna sits on the House Budget, Armed Services, and Oversight and Reform committees and is first vice chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus. He also serves as an Assistant Whip in the Democratic Caucus.

The two discuss the need for a new COVID-19 stimulus package that focuses more on financially disadvantaged Americans, as well as the 'Essential Workers Bill of Rights' that Rep. Khanna co-sponsored with Senator Elizabeth Warren.

Additionally, Brad talks with Rep. Khanna about policing reform, as well as the upcoming 2020 elections.

Rep. Khanna's website is Khanna.House.Gov and his handle on Twitter and Instagram is @RepRoKhanna.

During the second half of the show, Brad is joined by Ian Millhiser, a senior correspondent at Vox, where he focuses on the Supreme Court, the Constitution, and the decline of liberal democracy in the United States.  Ian is the author of "Injustices: The Supreme Court's History of Comforting the Comfortable and Afflicting the Afflicted."  His Twitter handle is @imillhiser.

Ian gives his expert analysis on last week's LGBTQ and DACA Supreme Court decisions, as well as what decisions can be expected from the court in the near future.  He also gives a fascinating profile of Chief Justice John Roberts, who is likely to be the deciding vote on many upcoming cases.

Brad writes a column every Sunday on the 2020 Presidential race for 'The Hill.'  He's on the National Journal's panel of political insiders and is a national political analyst for WGN TV and Radio in Chicago and KNX Radio in Los Angeles.
