Offices – Congressman Hakeem Jeffries https://share.google/xfVTRkNSzUw8irrPN
Call his stupid ass. Email his dumbass. Don't be quiet about this.
Don't know if intentional but here's the actual link for people not wanting to click a random Google link
Maybe it's Jeffries who has some serious work to do in terms of the conversations that he's going to have with American voters moving forwards.
Of course he reacts like that he’s Israel’s bitch.
Oh how fucking adorable that Jeffries thinks Mamdani answers to him.
Oh where's that big tent at guys?
Well, its right here in my pants after seeing those awesome primary results.
This "top democrat" should be ousted too.
Jefferies should shut the fuck. Fall in line, or be made irrelevant.
He's falling in line with the old guard.
I just wrote letters to both Jeffries and Schumer telling both of them to throw their full support behind the candidates who won or resign
Most likely, it won't do much; a drop in a bucket.
But enough drops can fill a bucket, and enough letters can at least bog down their mail handlers, send a message and hopefully get on their nerves.
Fuck any congressional Democrats that are upset they are getting ousted for progressive candidates...you work for us not them
Man don't do my man Lurch like that. Clearly Jeffries is a fishman from Innsmouth.
Don’t insult the Deep Ones like that. Jeffries is like the toilet paper stuck to your shoe as you walk out of the bathroom.
She's the new Mr rogers or for us east Tennessee folk... Dolly Parton.
If you stand against Mrs Rachel... You're wrong.
Imho
People against Ms Rachel are akin to that time Mr Rogers had to sue the KKK for impersonating him to spread their hate filled message.
Or when Fox News slandered him. At least the KKK was smart enough (barf) to try to imitate his style for evil. Fox is too dumb even for that.
When you attack the helpers, you're bad.
This may be the best gif ever made
This gif is gonna get a lot of use over the next few years I can feel it.
With my crystal ball, I predict that this gif is gonna become the hottest commodity in the world roughly twice every two years in May and November for a while.
Don't forget about states with off year elections! Virginia legislature and governor elections are on odd years, and I'm sure we're not alone. Every year is an election year!

DNC leadership is pathetic. They have the most popular political leader in the country standing right alongside them and they can't even support the guy, all because they lack the spine to tell their Israeli paylords to suck nut. Fucking corpo leech cowards.
They're not cowards. They know exactly what they're doing. Mamdani doesn't play ball with their established process. He is a threat to their paychecks and control. Mamdani just indicated to all of them "You might be the next one to lose your job if I decide I want someone else in your district".
They are not cowards. They are strategists prioritizing their own wants above that of the voters and human decency

Right, that's what we said. Cowards.

Fuck off with that, DINO
Mamdani for president!
I’d argue that Jeffries is the exact opposite of a DINO. He’s literally the minority leader. He is exactly what establishment democrats want. And that is the problem. He’s not a DINO, because he’s literally the face of the party. Democrats are simply too far right. And Mamdani is doing his best to drag the Overton window back to the left, even with the establishment democrats kicking and screaming.
But also, Mamdani wasn’t born in the US, and is therefore unable to run for president. Nor could he be in any seat that is in the chain of succession for the spot of POTUS. So for instance, he couldn’t be VP, the speaker, any of the presidential cabinet members, etc… Because all of those are potential future presidents, so allowing him to be in one of those spots would cause a constitutional crisis if he is the only one remaining and is ineligible.
I don't think the rules of succession state he can't be speaker of the house. If it came to it he would be skipped over for the next in line
Gosh, wouldn't want a constitutional crisis.
According to The Constitution we should have been having a Constitutional Convention every few years (3 years? 4? 5? 6? Who knows) so maybe we should make up for lost time.
He was not born in the US so he is not allowed to run for president
We have a rapist in office, who is almost certainly a Russian asset. Why should the rules selectively apply to Mamdani?
That's not the bar. You have to be a natural US citizen. You can be born outside of the US with US parents and you would be a natural citizen. Ted Cruz was allowed to run despite being born in Canada because his parents were US citizens. It's just one of the many reasons the whole Obama birth certificate thing was stupid. Even if he was born in Kenya he still would have been eligible because is mom is a US citizen.
Why is this getting upvoted like it's up for debate?
Mamdani is not eligible to run for president. That's just fact.
It's not the same situation as Cruz.

“work to do in terms of the conversations that he’s going to have with members of Congress moving forward.”
Hilarious that he's so worked up about a fucking mayor..... Like what is Congress going to do to a mayor if he doesn't want to talk to congressional members?
Welcome to actual democracy, fuck face. Jeffries is an embarrassment. You want your shitty candidates to win? Put up better candidates. Mamdani isn't a congressional rep. He can do whatever the fuck he wants and Jefferies can cry about it to Israel, his true ally.
he has to apologize for being aligned with what voters want? isn't that, as political scientists call it, the whole fucking point of democracy?

Is Jeffries getting whitening therapy or has he just been dead long enough for that pastiness to set in?
Oh no how unfortunate.
Fuck Jeffries, he is not a "top Democrat" he's been a lame duck for all but two weeks of this term because neoliberals lost the DNC and the accompanying victory fund right after his leadership election.
He has no political power in congress, and no one from his own party has reason to listen to him.
He might as well be an empty chair, but he definitely ain't winning a House leadership position again.

How about Dem leadership has some "serious work to do" to smooth things over with New York voters for failing to represent them?
