This is like two straight good things I’ve seen from Jeffries which isn’t a lot but it is a lot for him
Jeffries: "It's unbelievable that for 7 plus weeks Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva has been denied the ability to serve more than 800,000 people in Arizona because Republicans are running a pedophile protection program."

Short version:
Trump: I'm dismantling the Constitution, building a paramilitary fascist army loyal only to me, blowing up the US economy for my billionaire cronies, and destroying the planet.
Schumer: Okay, but you have to extend subsidies for corporate health care
Trump: No

I'm not quite so positive on Jeffries but something that meaningfully differentiates him from Schumer is actually hating Republicans quite a lot for at least directionally correct reasons
Jeffries may be able to elevate his game enough to survive a primary and leadership challenge, and if he does, he might be worthy of those victories

Hegseth is such a grotesque, failed simulacrum of a man

Of course Schumer is facing backlash - he deserves it. In the article, it ponders whether Schumer is “a liar” or “inept”. I’d argue that he’s both. And, oh my, it comes as no surprise to read that Hakeem Jeffries is defending his weak, useless colleague. Schumer must go. Jeffries can go too.

Some Tennessee Libraries Shut Down For “Emergency Closure” Over Transgender Books
It is unclear how many other libraries have or may need to temporarily shut their doors in order to cull their children’s sections for gender-subversive content.

Let's not be naive. He's the leader of the party. He always folds because he doesn't really work for us, and this time he found 8 senators who were not up for reelection to take the fall. It was no coincidence.

This is predatory, just like the maga GOP.
The Flex Loan, a new type of payday loan pioneered by Advance Financial in Tennessee, allows residents to borrow up to $4,000 at a 279.5% interest rate.
It has burdened low-income borrowers while generating huge profits for lenders.
