After Democrats’ historic victory, why is this how Hakeem Jeffries is responding?
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries isn’t interested in seeking impeachment charges against President Donald Trump.
Speaking on MS NOW’s Morning Joe Wednesday, Jeffries laid out his priorities for his party’s newfound leadership in the House of Representatives.
“The American people don’t want us to get even. They want us to get things done on their behalf because life is way too expensive,” Jeffries said.

Let me guess: reaching across the aisles and looking forward, right?
Milquetoast
Why would the republican want to hurt or hold other republicans accountable.
The American people want you to prosecute the fucking criminals in office, you wet napkin
We should start with Hakeem Jeffries
I don’t think Jeffries needs to be impeached. I think the Democratic Party to act like their name suggests and ask the voters. They are allowed to choose their own leaders any way they want, right? So instead of having a closed meeting secret vote to keep the same guy as last time, hold a non-binding referendum and mail special ballots out to every registered Democrat. Everyone can rank their top 10 and bottom 10 choices for the next Speaker of the House. They don’t have to commit to going with the popular winner but they do have to publish the results, and it would look bad on the leadership if they don’t pick someone in the overall top 3.
Introduce democracy into the Democratic Party? Crazy talk.
This.
I want justice you stupid fuck. Bury these fucks while you redistribute their wealth.
At the very least, we deserve our tax money back that he stole from us. Every single state secret that he sold should be monetized and redistributed.
What are you even on about… Didn’t you receive your stim check, personally signed from big daddy himself already? Ya’ll would’ve received another $5000
bribepayout! Now try asking dems for the same!
Impeach his ass
“We have won the election, so we obviously don’t need to change or do anything and just keep everything as it is…”
Calling justice and accountability “getting even” is shit abusers say
Hakeem can fuck directly off into the sun.
Half of Congress would probably be perfectly happy caucusing with the other team. They don’t care and tout whatever party line gets them paid. AIPAC and MORON-PAC (i.e. MAGA pocketbooks) have been very lucrative partnerships for them.
All I’m saying is it’s probably all a dog and pony show for Jeffreys. He probably has no interest or stomach for a protracted fight when they can just coast and give some lip service.
because he would have to actually do something if has to even “entertain” some accountability, the files, and even the bbb.
Everyone please write your reps demanding they don’t vote for schumer or jeffires
Do both, get to fucking work.
A narcissist will tell you that being held accountable for their actions is the same thing as punishing them, it’s not.
Anyone who looks at last night and says “voters want Democrats to work with Republicans” deserves a kick in the groin.
No, you don’t understand. Hakeem Jeffries already made plans with Jared Kushner to move forward together so the nation can heal.
Hakeem Jeffries made plans with Kushner to squeeze all he can for Israel over the next 2 years before he gets ejected at the primaries.
You have to call your new reps. You got to write your new reps. You got to let them know that this is not what you voted for.
