@Izard_of_Widd@Whatapityonyou I donโt think she knew about this at the time. News updates change opinions yk - we need anyone but Jeffries to be Speaker in 27
Some of us have spent years attacking Schumer and Jeffries for being useless, spineless, weak leaders of the Dems in Congress and calling for them both to step aside (which 60%+ of Dem voters want). We have the receipts to prove it. I, for one, have been more vicious about Schumer than Jeffries.
So, for some loud but thankfully unrepresentative Black Dems on this hellsite to now claim that anti-Black racism is behind the very understandable anger at Jeffries for secretly meeting with Kushner is just so pathetic and dishonest, and the worst expression of Republican-caricatured 'identity politics.'
Democrats cannot simply be anti-Trump.
They must be FOR a strong pro-working class agenda:
Medicare for All.
Raising the minimum wage to a living wage.
A wealth tax on billionaires.
Free public colleges and universities.
Expanding Social Security.
