Bluesky Feed - Capitol Protest

Hakeem Jeffries is right: the pressure is working. Republicans are rattled, and the extremist budget cuts are starting to crack. Now is *not* the time to let up. Keep calling, keep posting, keep organizing—because democracy works when we do. 📞📢🔥

www.npr.org/2025/05/02/n... Trump and Hakeem Jeffries don't agree on much. But their public support of legislation to ban members of Congress from trading individual stocks could revive prospects for a bipartisan effort that's stalled on Capitol Hill for years.

On the whole Hakeem Jeffries has been an underwhelming caucus leader, but this response to Ted Cruz is <<chef's kiss>>.

Ted Cruz tweets: "Hakeem, allowing your members to fly to El Salvador on the taxpayers dime to play footsie with violent gang members was obviously astonishingly bad politics.

Please, keep it up! 🤣🤣"

Hakeem Jeffries quote tweets Cruz, saying: "This from someone who abandoned his state during a historic winter storm to vacation in Cancun.

Nobody takes you seriously at this point.

And that’s Leader Jeffries to you, Edward."

While Hogg claims to oppose the influence of corporate PAC money, it’s hard to square that with his insistence that making Hakeem Jeffries Speaker is an “absolute imperative” considering his top donors include AIPAC, BlackRock, and Lockheed Martin. www.currentaffairs.org/news/david-h...

David Hogg Is Not a Threat to the Democratic Establishment

The Vice Chair of the DNC wants to primary incumbents who are “asleep at the wheel” but still backs Hakeem Jeffries and Nancy Pelosi. He’s offering the appearance of change without the substance.

David Hogg cites AOC as a positive example of a young progressive who took on the establishment and won, but his defense of Hakeem Jeffries and Nancy Pelosi suggests that he’d also be promoting Joe Crowley if she had emerged today rather than in 2017. www.currentaffairs.org/news/david-h...
