It’s not, they have, and by doing this, Hakeem Jeffries is once again supporting a narcissistic sex pest with a record of corruption (who is the reason NY’s gerrymandering is what it is and why Jeffries is not speaker!!) over the rightful winner of the Democratic Primary.

Lloyd Doggett publicly telling the young CPC chair from Austin to fuck off to a gerrymandered red district including none of Austin in the event the Texas gerrymander goes through, rather than step down when he'd be 80 on Election Day, is just...come on man

“With all due respect to Del. Norton,” says Wendy Hamilton, a DC minister who unsuccessfully challenged Norton in the 2022 Democratic primary, “I am just not certain that she is the best positioned generationally to meet the moment.”
