@DimmieG1983@hakeemjeffries@RepJeffries He have done nothing. If Speaker Johnson was a good leader he could easily expose the cracks in the democratic caucus but he got a too fragile caucus himself to do that.
Melat Kiros defends Hasan Piker and calls out Democrats who have condemned him
"Billionaires are draining our resources to develop a technology they want to replace us, millions will lose Medicaid in the new year to pay for tax cuts for the rich, and we’re spending billions on genocidal wars the voters oppose. But sure, let’s keep talking about Hasan Piker."
Diet MAGA AIPAC Dems did a coordinated smear campaign against Hasan as Trump was carpet bombing fishermen, Hakeem Jeffries was meeting with Jared Kushner and Gary Indiana was without power for nearly 2 weeks. What they DON’T call out is just as important as what they do.
So all those centrist freaks who told us Jeffries was playing 4D chess when he took that meeting with Kushner? Are we still antiblack for saying Jeffries had no reason to meet with him? He’s a fool who got played. Kushner, MAGA, Trump came out winners.
Congratulations centrists.
@groove_sdc Ask the Blue Dog Democrats what they will be doing? They have history of fighting, obstructing, weakening and killing legislation and Democrats agenda.
Dolly Parton was one of the great entertainers of our era. She was not only a talented musician & songwriter, but a lifelong philanthropist and advocate for literacy, education, LGBTQ+ rights, healthcare and disaster relief.
Her music and humanity touched millions. She will be sorely missed.
“First Black Speaker of the House” sounds like you’re putting a whole lot of weight behind that, and maybe years ago that would’ve been enough to move a lot of us. But people are struggling too damn hard for symbolism to be the selling point anymore.
Representation matters, but representation does not pay the rent, lower grocery prices, cover medical bills, raise wages, or make life affordable.
Y’all have allowed economic hardship to get so bad that people are past celebrating “the first Black” or “the first” anything while they’re drowning financially. We don’t need another historic milestone used as a substitute for material change. We need Democrats to fix this shit so people can afford to live.
@shesrightshow Trump does not care about the affordability crisis. He said it himself. If he did right now is the best time to pass his agenda and he is only worried about the SAVE Act. If you think that meeting about affordability you are dumb.
@michaelhardaway Yes, it includes all white collar crimes. Which Kushner dad was jailed for. But need not include and drug (marijuana) offenses which disproportionately affect minorities and low to working class families.
@citizengatsby@tify330 Please go do a deep dive into our minority leaders. Jeffries is not even in the top 10 of them. Tell me what is this agenda he’s going to be hitting the ground running with?
@NikkiBarnes What is his strategy? What does he stand for? What is he fighting for? What is his agenda after winning the House?
