How is it that when the Dems are in control, the Republicans figure out how to sh— all over them and when the Republicans have power , the Dems want to “work across the aisle”? There hasn’t been an aisle since 2000.

Mr. Jeffries is not the man for this moment. Maybe he needs to be investigated for colluding with the opposition in secret. He should not be speaker of the house ever.

We need another leader in the House! Jeffries is weak We need a “Nancy”. I sure hope we take over the House and possibly the senate with new leadership. Both have past their prime.

Thank You Edwin ...Read the room is right. I want Schumer and Jeffreis to step aside . We need leaders in there that are ready to do the hard work of restoring the rule of law. I don't think they are capable. I don't want to hear that the dems are in bed with corporations . I want to see investigations and prosecutions. If the 30% that supports the monster grows to a larger number so be it. If they don't tell the country and the world things are going to change we are sunk for good. lost in america

I never had any faith in the leadership of Jeffries or Schumer. His decision to meet with Jared Kushner makes me livid. I think it is time for Jeffries and Schumer to be stripped of their leadership position. I believe they are DINOs. They are bought by AIPAC!

I’d love to know why he did it in the first place. What could he have possibly gained from that shmuck?

I am profoundly concerned about the apparent naïveté of Jeffries. He’s a good guy, I am sure, but not the leader for this moment. Is it inevitable that he will become Speaker, of can the Dems put this to a vote?

Glad the Jeffries leadership scam has been exposed before he’s in position to advance to the next square on the game board. He’ll be challenged, right?

Yeah, very disappointing about Jefferies. If he were up for reelection, he would be voted out.

Uhhh, Jen—

He and every US House Representative is up for reelection in even number years (if they choose to run again).

Thus, if he is your Rep., you can vote against him if there is still a primary in his district. Not voting in the November election is not a good strategy, if the only remaining step is him running against a Republican. I really think tRump's 1st term win was partly due to some "Bernie Bros." not voting for Hillary Clinton in 2016.

And then they immediately do AIPAC bidding and tap Muskowitz to key committee position supporting Israel. Hakkim, we are not stupid. We see you. And we will show you the back door.

Resign.
