Jeffries is a narcissist. He is no better than TRUMP. He is BLUE MAGA! He will destroy our mandate!
WATCH — @RepJeffries: “There’s no indication members of Congress have been overwhelmed by any calls.” (This gaslighting seems to contradict what @axios @AndrewSolender have reported, and the million+ signatures on a petition for new leadership @MarkRuffalo helped circulate)

On Veterans Day and every day we’re grateful to our those who have raised their hand to protect our freedom & democracy.   We must never lose sight of our responsibility to turn that gratitude into action to deliver & improve the support & care our veterans have earned.

BREAKING: I just moved to subpoena the classified Volume II of Jack Smith’s report. Republicans BLOCKED it. They won’t be able to, come January. The truth will come out.

Sascha Riley who claims that Jim Jordan was part of the rape team when he was raped as a boy, says his appointment as minority leader is to protect the Epstein class at any cost. He just posted this on Threads.

Here’s @ryangrim pointing out some of the Dems who missed the Hegseth vote were coincidentally at a “new member reception” for a group that served as a pass-through for AIPAC money (Then claimed “stuck in traffic”🤔)

The parasite always kills the host. When are the American people going to say enough is enough.
Katie Wiles, daughter of former White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, is a partner at Continental Strategy, whose reported federal lobbying income rose from $1.8 million in 2024 to more than $27 million in 2025 and reached $35.7 million in the first nine months of 2026. Continental promoted Katie to director in its Jacksonville and DC offices on November 8, 2024, one day after President-elect Trump named her mother chief of staff. The promotion added lobbying and business development to her existing communications role. The firm holds a $35,000-a-month lobbying contract with the government of Republika Srpska, the pro-Russian Bosnian Serb entity. During an August 2026 trip that Continental says was for a separate US corporate client, Katie was photographed holding a rifle at a shooting range alongside the entity’s interior minister, Željko Budimir. On September 21, 2026, Susie Wiles met at the White House with Željka Cvijanović, the Serb member of Bosnia and Herzegovina’s three-member presidency. A White House official says Continental partner Alex Garcia, not Katie, arranged the meeting. The developments come amid allegations by former HHS senior adviser and MAHA advocate Calley Means that Susie Wiles’s office stalled MAHA policies while courting industry money for the midterms. Means also says Continental’s revenue surge was “tied to Katie Wiles working there.” A Wiles spokesperson calls the claims “outrageous, defamatory, and provably false.” Continental calls the claims about the firm “inaccurate and baseless.” Follow: @AFpost

Liberal groups are organizing against Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, whom progressives criticize as too close with corporate donors, too supportive of Israel and too weak to effectively oppose President Trump. wapo.st/3VdtOPk

ABSOLUTELY INSANE. THE HOUSE DEMOCRATIC ****WHIP**** WAS THROWING THE FUNDRAISING BASH THAT KEPT DEMOCRATS FROM VOTING TO SEND THE HEGSETH IMPEACHMENT VOTE TO THE FLOOR.
Katherine Clark is the Democratic Whip in the House, and it is thus her responsibility to ensure members are there to vote. Clark is also a founding member of EDW, which hosted an event tonight from 4:30pm to 6:30pm, overlapping with the 5:30pm vote on the Hegseth impeachment. Of the 11 members who missed the Hegseth vote, 8 have received support from EDW or its AIPAC-tied super PAC EDW Action. Of those 8, two are sitting board members.

This was a failure of Democratic leadership. We cannot have Hakeem Jeffries fumble the ball when the new Dem majority gets sworn in. There's too much at stake.
Kamlager-Dove on Hegseth Impeachment: We knew that this vote was coming, so people should have gotten their raggedy selves up these steps to vote. There is no reason why we should have lost this vote because of attendance issues. You know this man should not be in this position. That’s why he got up at 8 o’clock in the morning with his sorry self to plead to the American people. So shame on folks who are not here. Because these people lost. They lost, and they still found a way to show up to table this bill. Shameful.

Today, at the trade deadline.. The #Chargers have show they are committed.... To losing.. Games, fans, sponsors... #Hortiz, with your smug little comments after 11 wins and the worst Oline in football, you've not added much of anything to this team.. But you could have. 1/2

Hakeem Jeffries can’t even gather the democrats to vote on impeaching a war criminal. Why the fuck would anyone support him as House Speaker? He needs to GO.

Hakeem may have killed Pete Hegseth’s impeachment with 11 absent democrats. First test, he failed. Do we want him for the speaker? Jim Jordan will be in charge of his balls. No thank you.

Asked AOC during my live shot about the 11 Democratic absences that could have cost them a successful House vote to advance Pete Hegseth impeachment resolution. “The people send us here to do a job. I don't know if anyone had any real health issues or anything significant. So I want to leave room for that,” she told me. “But that being said, at the end of the day, we're here to do a job. And the same way I had to clock in when I worked at a restaurant, we got to clock in and do our work here.”

.@hakeemjeffries cannot even get all of his Democrats to vote for @SecWar impeachment - 11 didn't show up at all - So Hakeem has the votes for his Speakership but not for impeaching Hegseth? That's leadership???

Bingo. This is on Jeffries. Never would have happened if Nancy still ran the show

Wait! 11 Democrats didn’t show up to vote for Hegseth’s impeachment?? Did Jeffries tell them to show up? WTF happened? The first job they had to do after the midterms and they didn’t show up? What am I missing?
