Hakeem Jeffries Leads A Better Group!

Patience is a chess game.

The Republicans are still fighting over whether the controversial California lawmaker will be the next House Speaker. 

The incoming Minority Leader could end up the House Speaker if the Republicans sink the bid of Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA).

So far, the noise of the far right is trying to equate him to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO), two controversial progressive lawmakers who often cause havoc within the Democratic Party.

They claim he is an election denier because he believed that Washed Up 45 was not legitimately elected. The accusations were stemmed from the lawmaker's concerns that the former president then a candidate urging Russia to use information damaging to Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton and later Joe Biden.

He was one of the managers in the first of two impeachments of Washed Up 45. 

None of this sticks.

He is a Black Brooklyn based lawmaker who is moderate. He love hip-hop, walks into a bodega to engage with people and is a person who isn't trying to be noise.

He said that he is team Brooklyn not team genitification, to quote his dig at white leftist Jeffrey Shaun King.

Now, Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) is working to help Democrats regain the House of Representatives from Republicans. In two years, Republicans will vow to block President Biden's agenda and possibly the Senate Republicans agenda. 

House Republicans’ plans to open various investigations into the Biden administration demonstrate that they have learned nothing from their fate in the midterms.

“The fact that my Republican colleagues are contemplating revenge hearings tells you a lot,” Jeffries said during an appearance on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.”

“Instead of being focused on trying to address the problems of the American people — the economy, inflation, dealing with affordability throughout America, issues that we’ve been tackling as House Democrats as we fight for lower costs, better-paying jobs, safer communities — tells you that my Republican colleagues perhaps have not learned any lesson from their historic underperformance in the most recent midterm elections,” Jeffries added.

Republicans are set to gain a narrow majority in the House next month. The party has begun previewing its plans to open investigations into areas like Hunter Biden’s business dealings and the origins of COVID-19.

Congress passed the omnibus bill that keeps the U.S. government open until September. Republican House members balked at it and said that it's war against Biden, Democrats and Republicans in the Senate.

The Jan 6. Panel in its final public meeting on Monday recommended a formal ethics inquiry into House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), who is trying to become Speaker in the next Congress, and three other House Republicans who refused subpoenas.

The GOP lawmakers have insisted the committee’s work was a politically motivated witch hunt.

In the new Republican majority, the party may attempt to subpoena House Democrats like outgoing House Intelligence Committee Chair Adam Schiff (D-CA), who said last month on CNN he would have to “consider the validity” of any GOP subpoena.

“In terms of the integrity of their investigations moving forward, that remains to be seen as it relates to the subpoenas and their non-compliance in terms of what the January 6th committee has indicated,” Jeffries said on MSNBC on Tuesday.
