Jeffries: "The cult-like behavior of my colleagues on the other side of the aisle is a complete and total abdication of their responsibility to conduct themselves like a separate and co-equal branch of government"

What we’re seeing from the Republican Party isn’t independence — it’s cult-like loyalty. A co-equal branch of government doesn’t exist to fall in line. It exists to stand on its own. And right now, that’s not happening

So what is Jeffries doing to oppose them? He keeps calling them "colleagues" who support and wildly applauded a dictator! The Dems should have been on their feet screaming and calling out Dump's lies! I know they don't have the votes, but they still have voices!

When Trump said he no longer needed Congress and the GOP members clapped, that was them celebrating the death of their party. That moment should be in every democratic election ad all across the country.

I wouldn't say this if he wasn't a feckless AIPAC controlled-opposition plant, but Hakeem 'face for radio' Jeffries is an attempted forfeit. This party really eats checkers while staring blankly at the chessboard. Having a charismatic attractive leader is a big deal.

The republiturds are no longer a "political party" but an EXTREME FACTION headed by a CONVICTED FELON CRIMINAL whose goals are to destroy the American democracy that these mfers and their families have benefited from since the creation of this nation! It's now us (repubs) vs them (the U.S.)!

Dem party assclownery never ceases to amaze. bsky.app/profile/luna...

Antifahhh@lunaticleft.bsky.social

Faces of Death, Blue Team cont. Hakeem "The Machine" Jeffries (NY) •Paid $1,741,230 in AIPAC gold •Eagerly funds ICE nazis •Approved Trump's $1 Trillion "defense" budget while opposing Medicare 4 All •Voted YEA with 86 other Dems and Repugs on a resolution condemning the "evils of socialism"

Aside from Jefferies being a spineless leader, finding out he is pushing to go to war with Iran behind closed doors, he is putting Israel first. Jefferies can fuck all the way off.

I just commented on another post that congress has abdicated. Their duty is to impeach because the president is not executing their and SCOTUS orders. That is the primary role of the executive branch. There is no other consequence for the defiance of the president to carry out constitutional duties.

Just a reminder that the Dems in Congress can remove their leaders at any time. Ask yourself, if they disagree with Jeffries at a fundamental level, why haven't they? Or do they enjoy letting him take the flak while they pretend to object?

He had to do less than something in this case and it would have been at least a sign he was starting to be more than a man worried about “decorum”. He only needed to not show up and let people know beforehand. Then many more democrats would have stayed home. I am Jack’s lack of total surprise.

Using power and wealth to prey on the vulnerable and now protected by an administration that is an integral part of their plot. This administration has tried to obfuscate crimes against humanity. This song calls out the “Elitists of the Land.” youtu.be/V5W-DfebEN4?...

I can’t tell you how disappointed I am and you guys but then I heard from your dry cleaner and they said your hood and robe are ready then I understood your assignment. Why don’t you go over there with Donald Trump? Weakness above all else I don’t like Jefferies either that’s not the point.

That’s why so many don’t support the Dems - because they can’t understand what they’re saying. People think Trump is being authentic when he’s being a simpleton, but at least they understand it. He comes up and says, SCOTUS did harm to country, made wrong decision. Meanwhile - abdication, co-equal🤨

"a complete and total abdication of their responsibility to conduct themselves like a separate and co-equal branch of government" This is funny because that's exactly what I'd say about Jefferies leadership. 🤨👎

Idiot. He makes me want to leave the party. His complicit behavior and lack of involvement when it comes to ICE terrorizing us in the streets makes him the worst Democrat minority leader the House has EVER had. Israel owns him and Chuck Schumer!

REMEMBER vote for all democrats running running for office and let’s get rid of the spineless despotic republicans bin and running for office.

Here's a clue Mr namby pamby Jeffries: ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS. The vast majority of your politicians are in a cult, either the Turdreich one or the bowing to AIPAC and corporate overlords Dem one. You need a revolution. A coup at the beginning of Trump's reign would have been optimal.

NOW, what are we gonna do about it???? When he defies the SCROTUS, what are we gonna do about it??? When he get us in a nuclear war... there will nothing we can do about it. 😩

This isn’t news, nor newsworthy. He’s not wrong but: Have there been any consequences for anything in government? No. Will there be? Probably not. Both sides of the Legislative Branch are complicit. The people are sick and tired of this drivel.

And Jeffries is an Incompetent, Cowardly Buffoon. He has no plan or strategy to defeat or counter Trump. He mostly just posts on social media. He doesn't know how to weaken Trump via humiliation, ridicule and embarrasment which is very easy to do with Trump & his Shit Show.

Congressman Jeffries and myself are very upset by the conduct of our colleagues and we are giving notice that we will absolutely fold at a moments notice to comply with the president's demands despite our angry faces.

JEFFRIES…………….. %#&&@^/!!!!! YOU MAKE ME SPIT WHEN I TALK AND SAY BAD THINGS! WHEN ARE YOU & SCHUMER GOING TO START ADVOCATING FOR US?!?! YOU KNOW THE PEOPLE WHO VOTED YOU IN!!! YOU NOW HAVE PUT US ON A SINKING SHIP SO DIG OUT THE BUCKETS AND START BAILING BECAUSE WE ARE SINKING FAST!

If the American people understood their own government they would be up in arms. The president is not our leader. He is our employee. He’s an administrator. An office wonk. The congress is supposed to be our leadership. And the courts our conscience. The president is the leader only in times of war.

When I hear the guest on a political show is Jeffries, I turn the channel....constantly repeating in general terms what we already know just makes me want 2 throw up...his corporate owned AIPAC funded ass advisors have their heads up their butts if they think this piss poor messaging wins votes

Jeffries is the wrong leader Schumer is the wrong leader I've looked at the stats and more Democrats than not want Schumer immediately replaced than not, so why are Senate Democrats ignoring what we want. Chuck pledged our money to Israel. Chuck as to go, now.

They both act like they're still at Debate Club in school! There is no debate, only what's right and inherently wrong. Need people that will stop with the words and actually do something.

NONE OF THEM WILL We just follow. Sheep in a different pasture. Everyone here is smart enough to know this situation was all preventable but nobody thought to remove Garland, even as he hired someone to do his job, 2 years later.

I am not quitting the party. Every day I urge Jim McGovern my Rep from Mass. to challenge Jeffries . We should be bombarding our Reps to do this. Not just once in awhile everyday! Or we will replace them. They need to know we mean it. I have stopped donating to the DNC but give to individuals.

I have noticed that "fight" is a word politicians like to use now. We are FIGHTING for the American people! I hate the way it sounds, too rhetorical, poor symbolism, but its hard to "fight" with your hands in your pocket. The Dems should have walked out when he said that they were all crazies.

It’s just not in him… leading, that is. It’s not his forte. Time is not going to change that. Has he even once addressed the $1.5+ million he has received from AIPAC? I see people mentioning this on comments during live streams of his interviews. He is status quo. Out of touch with We The People 😣

his forte is getting money from the donors. That is it. That is wqhy Pelosi hand picked this asshole here. They have completley given the democrats as a party to the same influences as the republicans. The wealthy have two parties. We the people have none but ourselves.

OMG. At the SOTU speech with the 2 clowns sitting behind Tramp, laughing, clapping, smirking, nodding at each other in agreement, and totally agreeing with Tramp's every stupid comment. The first and second in line for dear leaders throne. OMG again. 😱 We are so screwed.

you blew it again Hakeem. You missed your chance last night to do something powerful. Resign and step aside for someone with courage and who knows how to lead in times like this. You are not that.

He has been asleep in his job too long. Bring back Nancy, at least she had guts. Jeffries is allowing all this destruction to happen while he insists on letters and business as usual. He is a failure. Time to get someone else stronger and ready to fight back

The framers never envisioned entire branches of government would abdicate our Constitutional checks on tyranny. But alas! Traitors bought out by billionaires did it for the collective power of 1party rule by their demigod dictator wannabe. Who knew self serving profiteers were so cheap.

People who take money from AIPAC shouldn't be expected to do anything about holding the criminal administration, that is led by a pedophile who raped tortured and possibly murdered children,who are pillaging the country for a profit accountable.

Jesus. I shouldn’t have to say this. “Trump lies” isn’t a winning message. “Trump is lying TO YOU, yes you, specifically you.” IS. Then, point out where he has been lying TO HIS BASE. You don’t have to win me over. I’ve got the message. I’ve seen the footage. You are trying to bump those on the edge

“Those darn cultists who actually do what their party votes for them to do. Unlike Dems who can’t be bothered to give a shit about what our voters want. Get out of the way of my AIPAC dole, peasants.”

I feel for Jeffries. Everyone wants him to totally abandon his adherence to the constitution to do something “dramatic” that will force change from the facists. And the second the democrats gain power they will want his to strictly adhere to those same ideals and convictions. But he’s not smart.
