congress serves the people, not their dem friends. The People
Hey Jeffy, get fucked.
U mad, bro?
Mr Jeffries,
I am appalled that you, or any Democrats, think that you get to pick who it is that we, the people, vote for. You are a representative for us. You need to smooth things over with the American people because these others were voted in not because Mamdani is a cult of personality, but because they are doing and saying things the people like and want.
When you and the party can do something successfully, such as codify LGBTQ rights (I.e., gay marriage, trans rights, etc), eliminate corporate government influence, ensure proper health care, and a laundry list of other things then maybe we can take you and your “preferred choices” seriously. Until then, watch change happen from the people that actually have to be in the trenches dealing with all of the American government’s fuckery. Please sit down, kindly shut up, and do your job of representing the people’s needs and not presenting your next potential colleague.
Sincerely,
An American Voter in Illinois
High Five!
I am so tempted to send this as an actual email to his team along with a link to the attached article.
How long did Jeffries wait to endorse Mamdani as the NYC mayoral candidate?
Maybe it stings that Mamdani's successes so far have come despite support from Democrat leadership. Just shows what taking your job as a public servant seriously can do.
Ah yes the house Democrats known for their fervor, backbone and hard fought results.
You can't even threaten an enemy properly and you are gonna threaten a fellow Democrat? Fuckin traitors. And they would be dealt with accordingly.
It makes more sense when you realize they're just the paid opposition party all these years. It explains all the ratchet effects and lack of real social progress.
I think it's probably more complicated than that, like sure lots of people in the party end up as paid opposition and certainly the longer they are in Washington making the kinds of compromises they have to make to get anything done the better they get at rationalizing those decisions. But I wholly agree that things need to change from what they are
Hey Hakeem, tough titties shitbird. Read the room, your time has past.
no the incumbent dems should be scared, very scared. he just showed the rest of the country how to take them down. It's time to get to work.
There are 2 parts to taking back the government. The GOP has to be stopped, so voting Dem is a necessity. We have a 2-party system, so anyone who isn't voting blue is contributing to the problem.
"But the Dems aren't what we want them to be"
That's what primaries are for, and Mandami is the perfect case study. Primaries are where the most important elections are determined.
That being said, I live in an area of Texas where Dems simoly aren't going to win, so I'm actually a registered Republican most years. I vote the in the Republican primaries for the least-crazy among them, but then vote blue in the general election.
Very tactical of you, tho that's a hell of an uphill battle
If Jeffries is annoyed with you, you probably did something right. If your incumbents are just there to tow the party line, kiss corporate ass, kiss Netanyahu's ass, and give, at most, flaccid resistance to the Republican agenda before bending to their will, they deserve to lose their seats. The few progressives we have need more numbers. I'll happily sacrifice a few milquetoast party dems for progressives with a backbone and an agenda for change.
The DNC is scared. They see what happened to the old guard Republicans (centrist) they started losing to more right leaning candidates. Now those leaders are gone and we have a crazy right leaning "leadership" in power. The DNC doesn't want that to happen to them as well. Yet, I think it's inevitable, we've swung too far right and there is too much pent up anger for the centrist to keep power.
They aren't centrists though. They aren't anything really. They are all bought and paid for by Israel.
Why do we send them billions every month? Because it reaches them, they skim off the top, and put much it directly in the pockets of congress. How else do they leave office rich? It's a giant money laundering scheme at our expense.
Here's hoping the endorsements keep coming and House corpo losers will have to "smooth things over" with Mamdani. Fuck Jeffries.

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
Of course he reacts like that he’s Israel’s bitch.
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.
Oh where's that big tent at guys?
Well, its right here in my pants after seeing those awesome primary results.
I got a whole mountain poking outta there
Oh how fucking adorable that Jeffries thinks Mamdani answers to him.
This "top democrat" should be ousted too.
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.
