She also discusses the departures of Representatives Eric Swalwell and Tony Gonzales, and reacts to Congresswoman Ilhan Omar’s comments urging Democrats to show grace to former MAGA figures like Marjorie Taylor Greene. Ana breaks down what unity, accountability, and political reality look like to her right now. Plus, Ana dishes about her recent trip to Costa Rica and what the getaway meant to her.
