"honey, TONIGHT ONLY there is a special offer for matching funds, anything you contribute to the 'let's get takeout' campaign will be doubled while I organize a planning committee to put together a non-binding statement of intent about the dish situation"
I’ve likened this to standing outside your house while it’s being robbed, screaming 😱 into the void. It may look effective, but it’s not helping in any tangible way.
Actually, Jeffries packed up to go stay at *his* parents first, because he couldn't handle his anger and frustration at the clean-dish lobby's mobilizing his wife in an attempt to provoke him into a more aggressive dishwashing posture. Why can't they see the bigger picture?
Wife: "Remember to clean both sides, they can get dirty underneath too!"
Jeffries: "Now that's just counterproductive criticism, and clearly these plates got dirty from being stacked! Clearly whoever moved these plates to the sink is to blame for this mess!"
He and Schumer are not the ones to lead the charge or even order lunch for everyone at that point! Schumer would put the host to sleep waiting on him to finish the order and the other would send such confusing hand gestures that one couldn't be sure if there even was a lunch order #EatTheRich
Hakeem Jefferies is a buster. Remember that one from the 90's, Brooklyn? Yeah, I thought so. You know what I mean. wonderful allegorical style you show there.
This dumb crap never elected anyone or got anything done. Congratulations on saddling us with Trump. There is a political strategy in which you make your opponent unacceptable. You twats are doing that FOR THE MAGA REPUBLICANS. Can you political know nothings find some humility?
My hunch is that he’s being paid by some billionaire to be a pied piper leading the left away from the Bernie/AOC wing. He screams at people who criticize the Schumer/Jeffries types and he says nobody should be protesting in the streets. His show is informative but be careful following his advice.
Shut the fuck up dude. Democracy needs criticism of our elected officials - all of them. If posting online is all it takes to get these losers losing then they're dogshit at politics.
The people responsible for saddling us with Trump are the DNC ghouls who forced the VP of a wildly unpopular president on us and then told her to say she was going to do everything the same as him.
Or, perhaps, we could differentiate ourselves with our a willingness to hold our electeds & govt officials accountable, speak truth to power, and motivate those in charge to act in our interest with urgency.
"I'm going to ask the water nicely to turn on again, out of respect for me and the house that affords it any water at all to begin with! As soon as it turns on I will gladly wash the dishes, in fact, your insistence I NOT honor water autonomy is probably why it is too disrespected to respond."
Weaponized incompetence at its finest, except he leads the Democratic Party in the House and therefore has the responsibility to not be incompetent for the millions of people he represents.
He's trying to figure out how to keep and work with Eric Adams. If I didn't hear him say it I wouldn't have believed it. Eating our own is a good thing when they're a worthless POS.

He’s capable of withholding government funding.
In 2007, he threatened to withhold NY pension from Universal music cause Nas put the n word on his album
So he’s capable, but just about really really dumb stuff
Democrats were in the majority in 2007. Currently, Republicans are the majority.
The majority Party:
Elects the Speaker of the House
Decides which bills can come to a vote; can block legislation it opposes
*Holds a majority in all committees*
Oversees the budget & appropriations
I totally understand what you are saying. I am also tired of you saying "it's up to you now." Damnit! Fight alongside us. Show some spunk. Get mad, I just don't feel it coming from you.😡
Jeffries has no spunk, he's a corporate mod Dem who was under the tutelage of Pelosi. We need real Dems out there fighting for the working class. Time for major revolution to replace paid whores with a real Working Class Party! Except for a few it's a R lite party, and has been for decades.
He's just there to hold the title as leader but not.....you know....leading.
@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social Webster Dictionary is still allowed on Google so you can go look up the definition of 'leadership' since you don't seem to know.
He can deny quorums, he can whip dems to vote against everything, meaning repubs have to own EVERY confirmation, he can do daily media blitzes and organize rallies,he could start shadow impeachments 4 midterms,he can do everything McConnell did to Obama
He can, and should, be working in concert with the Senate to apply pressure EVERYWHERE.
Saying "We have no leverage" - when he is talking about house, senate, executive, is a barefaced lie, especially when activist groups are using THEIR leverage every damn day.
ABSOLUTELY NONE!!! He can do nothing, not one thing, all he can do is squirm as the democracy of the USA is destroyed. Oh and point out that it's not his fault there was nothing he could do and don't you dare point out that the Republicans managed to.
I feel like she'd have to go start an affair. I mean when your partner is this cucked in politics your body has to start begging you for someone competent.
I should have made a list of all the completely out of touch with reality excuses my ex made for not doing small tasks. I'd be sitting on a comedy goldmine.
Good one. Jeffries is part of the problem! Got to go!
Stop meeting privately with Silicon Valley to “mend fences” fucker!
Another domino has probably fallen to greed.
We need to COOPERATE with the lack of water. We need to ask the lack of water what economic conditions lead to it being a lack of water. There is a way that both the Jeffries household and the lack of water can all get what they want here.
He’s proving to be an airbag. He talks too much while not saying much. I’m very disappointed. I thought he had some fight in him. He’s a status quo type of politician. And I wish he would stop using his hands so much when he talks. It’s distracting.
Most of the Dems are IMO. The guy they just elected to lead the party? OMG - what a joke. I say this every day now - my safe seat federal and state Dems refused to meet with me for ten years while I was doing health advocacy. If you don’t talk to your constituents, all of them, you’ll lose.
Considering she decided that the water department wouldn't shut off the water when she didn't pay November 5th's bill, yet it did, perhaps daddy's house is the best place for her.
If we're in the majority sure expect work product otherwise we're just taking the next two years off. Learned helplessness is a thing and we're nothing if not learners -- AMIRIGHT?!
It’s mind boggling to me that the Dems can’t figure out that a positive vision for the future is more compelling than “we aren’t as bad as the GOP” as a campaign strategy.
Throwing up their hands makes perfect sense given how the party campaigned.
Everyone, we will get through this. However, we should not forget how he, and other dems like him, have failed us. He cannot be working 100% for us while he is beholden to corporate donors. Support the progressives reps/sens. They are the ones who care, and also have something to lose like we do.

This white woman won't vote republican and have been voting blue for over 52 years. Hubby votes blue too and all our friends. Geeze don't believe everything your told.
Too bad all the other white people around you contributed to the 70% of USA white voters that vote Republican every election since the civil rights act passed. Focus on that instead of patting yourself on the back. Find all those white heroes we've been told exist. Because they're missing in action.
Actually we helped vote in Biden, Obama, Clinton, and Carter. Your number is not accurate. Maybe in the southern states but not nationwide. Your argument would hold water if the facts were behind it. Otherwise you come across as brainwashed.
Sure, but who are you arguing with? You sealioned your pet cause (unlimited war on KKKrackers), which is worthy of support, for sure, in response to a joke about how much of a useless, crooked jackass Hakeem Jeffries is. What are you doing, pal?
Yes, when government is so weak that it can do nothing we can do little. Fortunately, there are some young women with no power, authority, or money, who created Bluesky.
Funny how power flows to those who think and do, rather than complaining that the water isn't on.
There’s dishes in the sink and they are dirty. You can’t put dirty dishes in the cabinet. That is unsanitary and just wrong. We must find a way to clean the dishes.
Interesting how the Rs aren't following any rules but Jeffries et al is following the same old play book of finding common ground and business as usual. They need a 24/7 communicator like Buttigieg to lead with rapid fire response...why is it come up with these ideas? Where are the fng Dems?
Gavin might not be the best person to trust to do the right thing, even in easier times, but the point stands. Also definitely check out Montana State Rep Zooey Zephyr.
Some of those homeless encampments were dangerous for the people living in them like right off the freeway 80 mph dangerous! i should know i drive past them when I'm in downtown LA! just saying, LA freeways are crazy enough as it is without the threat of hitting a homeless intoxicated person
There’s clearing homeless camps alongside some new initiative to help them become housed,
And then there’s just straight up clear the homeless camps, vanilla style.
Guess which one Gavin is doing
i don't condone any actions that take away people's rights to exist but the root cause of all homelessness is simply greed in the real estate market to me basic things necessary for life like health care and housing should be regulated, not for profit, i get your point there is no perfect politician
this might be true but is the solution just to leave them there to get hit by a speeding car and die? i guess that would be one way to solve them being homeless huh?
Do you think they prefer living there compared to a park or under a bridge? That they looked at all the places to camp and said "yeah right there seems nice"
We can’t gather together a small group of military or mercenaries to quietly cull this herd of alt+right loving leaders who are hell bent on destroying the Nation.
We can think about it, but we can’t do it, right @sengov.com ?
Legally, they are doing what they can do and waiting on GOP to awaken

He told me "what can I even do, the bad tire is still on the car." So I drove off
inept ha

Jeffries: "Now that's just counterproductive criticism, and clearly these plates got dirty from being stacked! Clearly whoever moved these plates to the sink is to blame for this mess!"
that's their whole job now
We are finally fighting fire with fire!
More like Real Kansas Karen

He just wont. Because hes bought and paid for
He can, and should, be working in concert with the Senate to apply pressure EVERYWHERE.

Thats leverage,as is forcing every Republican to defend these acts rather than being complicit in "bipartisanship" bullshit
Trump won by 1.5%,not a landslide
Worthless BlueAnon cultist.
Stop meeting privately with Silicon Valley to “mend fences” fucker!

Idk how we expect anyone in Congress to actually resist after the J6 pardons. They are all under duress.
The only ones who are the people who aren't safe anyway.
Sounds pretty sus
They've run out of time.
It can hurt.
Stop ignoring that.
Funny how power flows to those who think and do, rather than complaining that the water isn't on.
She promised clean dishes.
Is anything she's doing here going to get these dishes clean?
Where are the people with fire?
Yes, Jasmine, yes, AOC, yes, Pete, yes, Gavin.
Give these people the microphone ffs!
And then there’s just straight up clear the homeless camps, vanilla style.
Guess which one Gavin is doing
What leverage did Comer have when he was plastered on nightly news shows for months over fake Hunter Biden outrage?
Jeffries doesn’t need that.
