Many Democrats have just shrugged when I asked them whether they're backing Hakeem Jeffries as leader: "He's unopposed. He's going to be the leader."

But they wouldn't say one way or another what they'd do if someone else actually threw their hat in the ring to challenge him…

Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer will take your energy, your righteous anger, the mandate you’ve handed the Democratic Party and they’ll sit on it until the air is out of the bag.

The Democratic Party can’t be this corrupt any more. We need new leadership.

[barbarism critic @barbarismcrit]

Can’t even whip a fucking vote lmao. Fire Jeffries.

[Mike Figueredo @HumanistReport]

@RepPressley Take the swing against Jeffries and run for speaker! The people have your back!

[Mike Figueredo @HumanistReport]

@GeauxGabrielle Major congratulations! ❤️

Jeffries couldn't even get Democrats in line to vote to impeach Hegseth. Truly inspiring.

[Ben Rhodes @brhodes]

Democrats not showing up for the Hegseth impeachment vote is a giant warning sign. Forget Republicans - did Democrats and their leaders watch the election results last week?

[Laverne Cox @Lavernecox]

We do not want @SenSchumer and @hakeemjeffries in Leadership. The people have spoken and are speaking. Democratic elected officials figure it out. Get it done! Thank You!

[Mike Figueredo @HumanistReport]

It's so obvious to everyone that @RepPressley would be an incredible speaker.

[Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @RepPressley]

Republicans have been flooding the zone with lawlessness, cruelty, & corruption.

And Democrats have a mandate to match their energy—boldly & unapologetically.

It's not enough to be the adults in the room. We have to prove that we are the FIGHTERS in the room.

TO EVERY NEW DEMOCRAT ELECTED IN THE HOUSE:

TELL ME SPECIFICALLY WHICH DEMS ARE THREATENING YOU TO FALL IN LINE.

IF THEY MAKE YOUR LIFE HELL, MYSELF AND ALL LEFT-WING MEDIA WILL MAKE THEIR LIVES HELL. REACH OUT.

[Prem Thakker @prem_thakker]

Split screen at Capitol Hill today:
Hakeem Jeffries is arguing that he should be the leader of the Democrats — and then, as the current leader, he couldn’t get enough Democrats to show up to impeach Pete Hegseth

[Mike Figueredo @HumanistReport]

House Speaker Ayanna Pressley
Senate Majority Leader Chris Van Hollen

Fuck seniority, we want RESULTS @TheDemocrats.

@drdanchoi It’s not “government controlled healthcare.” It’s a governmental insurance program. You don’t know what the fuck you’re talking about. Adam Gaffney is objectively and factually correct.
