It's one thing for a random NY politician to make a quip like this but Jeffries is national leadership. He's the leader my own Rep in the House is supposed to follow. I don't think it's funny, I think Jeffries is undermining the whole party with this insult and by failing to endorse Mamdani.
Following Sen. Chris Van Hollen’s criticism of Democratic leadership for refusing to endorse Zohran Mamdani, Hakeem Jeffries’ spokesman mocks: “Chris Van Who?”

Your electricity bill is going up because data centers are raising demand, not because your utility started scaling out some renewables. Pass it on.

Out of the mouths of ignoramuses: “Numbers always tend to benefit the left.”
CNN: When the jobs report comes out, are you going to believe the numbers?

REP. RANDY FINE: Um, I'm going to look at the numbers. Look, the people who put these numbers together are human & fallible and make mistakes

C: It wasn't that they make mistakes

National Guard soldiers called into service for President Trump's law enforcement surge in D.C. have been assigned to spread mulch at federal monuments.

Normally the Park Service does that, but the administration laid off the workers.

The new EPA requirements, implemented under the Biden administration, would have prevented over 100 tons of toxic air pollutants from spewing out into Clairton and other steelmaking communities around the country. But in July, the Trump administration issued a two-year pause on the rules.

Illinois Gov. Pritzker vows to pursue Trump officials who participate in an illegal National Guard deployment to Chicago:

"If you hurt my people, nothing will stop me - not time or political circumstance - from making sure that you face justice under our constitutional rule of law."

Donald Trump is still hiding the Epstein Files from the American people. 97% of the documents they've released were already public.

We should get more than the interview of a convicted child sex trafficker—just release the full Epstein Files.

No one keeps the powder dry like Hakeem Jeffries.
Jeffries on Trump planning a military crackdown in Chicago: "We should continue to support local law enforcement and not simply allow Donald Trump to play games with the lives of the American people as part of his effort to manufacture a crisis and create a distraction because he's deeply unpopular"

A good rule of thumb: if you’re getting catharsis from someone imitating Trump and it’s paired with a flood of bullshit AI memes and nothing gets discussed about how to materially make peoples lives better and instead it’s just parroting of “strategies” that’ll defeat him, it’s a problem.

One of the biggest blunders (when well-intentioned) and betrayals (when not) in Democratic rhetoric over the years is their impenetrable insistence that what voters respond to is somebody who begins by finding common ground with their opponent, no matter who that opponent is or what that ground is.
