Rep. Ro Khanna claims he was "detained" by armed Israeli settlers and IDF soldiers while on a trip to the West Bank — and released a tearful selfie video describing the ordeal along with a string of secondhand horror stories. But the Israeli ambassador tells a very different story on Face the Nation: Khanna ignored the embassy's request to coordinate his trip, refused their offer to visit October 7th survivors, and instead coordinated with Palestinian activists and J Street. This video breaks down Khanna's viral claims, the video evidence, the ambassador's rebuttal, and how the whole episode conveniently distracted from Khanna's messy exit from endorsing scandal-plagued Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner — all while he eyes a 2028 presidential run.
