total cowardice

Is anyone in DC working for the American people?

Right?!?!! This!!! They are in it solely for their own self interest - just like the GOP & trump.

Oh fer f***’s sake

Are you listening Dems? Get a fucking leader. Jeffries droning is truly infuriating.

Nancy picked a real dandy, didn't she?

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social resign.

He's not wrong - the leadership Democrats need at this time are the ones in the mold of FDR - fighters not legislators

More like President Johnson. He fought tooth and nail and in your face.

I am really disappointed in Jeffries. Nancy Pelosi had the guts to stand up to Trump.

It’s shocking frankly and so so disappointing. I really thought he’d be more like Pelosi

What do you think he can do at this very moment?

Take a stand instead of having a spine like a wet noodle. I never thought Jeffries would be so mealy mouthed.

Take a ‘look’ at the dam Khanna war powers resolution, for starters!

“Haven’t taken a look at it… But you can book on it… That the crooks on it…” The guy is a joke.

What the fuck??

LOL I'm staggered. Even from him....incredible.

So, what's the problem?

Still arranging the deck chairs on the Titanic.

I miss our Tigress, Nancy Pelosi!

Jeez, except for a few outspoken women, the entire dem party is mostly unless. Don't put all the blame on Jeffries.

I MEANT USELESS!!!

Answers the question honestly and gets slammed. Like he needed to vote on it later today. Can’t turn on ourselves people. The issue isn’t Dems leadership, it’s Trump. And he has all the power! PS reminds me of Magas.

Face plant.

He's been trying to fake it till you make it since Pelosi got him in. It's not working! He's not the one, he needs to step down and take Schumer with him.

Blue State Executive Order: Deport ICE. Fire all Republican Police. Release all inmates.

I am very disappointed too.

I was pulling for him for awhile, but it just doesn't work.

Same. He's not who I thought he was. Not strong enough.

Hakeem Jeffries is USELESS . He should step DOWN !!

Congress loves to complain, but few want to actually vote on this

Ooof

All talk, no walk. What a pathetic disappointment. @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social just needs to take a bow and let someone with balls take over.

Please list what he can do?

Enjoy Barb. Hope it wakes you up, too. substack.com/@robertreich...

Can we send several cases of testosterone patches to Democrats in Congress--obviously there seems to be a defecit in Democratic leaders

At first I thought Jeffries just looked like a terrible Dem leader because nobody could measure up to Nancy Pelosi. But this proves he’s just a shitty and ignorant fool who doesn’t deserve to be a congressman, much less a party leader.

WTF! I wasn’t a big fan of Hakeem Jeffries before, but this ignorance in his part proves he shouldn’t be a member of Congress, much less Speaker of the House. I’m a 77 year old lady and I’ve read the resolution.

Democrats need to fire Schumer and Jeffries. If you’re just going to reward the politicians who rack up the most chits, then you will live under MAGA Nazism forever.

In the past I thought Jeffries seemed strong. It appears he's changed! Even when he does TV appearances his responses seem like milk toast and he looks uncomfortable- like he'd rather not be there. Does anyone know why?

You can't blame Hakeem. He has to check with all of his lobby and corporate donors first before he takes a position on anything.

🎯

bullshit.... every Republican is worse

Time for him to Get a new job. Clearly has no interest in doing his current job. Hop his constituents fire him.

Again, whine all you want on social media but Jeffries and Schumer aren’t reading your posts. So start running their primary challengers ASAP.

Too busy helping Cuomo get elected

Agree. He’s a real disappointment. Does nothing but take up space. AOC would get things moving.

🫠

AOC, Jasmine Crockett, et al - much better leaders for this moment in time!

Agreed. The worst

I'm highly disappointed by Jeffries. It looked like he would be a WONDERFUL spokesperson prior to Felon 47, but somewhere along the line he lost his balls. Somebody please find them and return them. He's crashing and burning.

Just when good leadership is desperately needed we get the craven Democrats. What happened to courage?

Its future in the House is uncertain, especially given the current Republican control of both chambers of Congress. according to Newsweek. Hasan is very quick to criticize when REPUBLICANSHAVEFULL CONTROLOFCONGRESS. 💩, maga admin has the “squirrel” principle running so hard & fast. butblamedems

The resolution has been introduced in the House of Representatives. It is a privileged resolution, meaning it can be called up for a debate and vote after 15 days if the committee doesn't take action. The resolution has not yet been passed by either the House or the Senate.

They all need to go, including Pelosi with her insider trading scheme that’s been going on for decades

He couldn’t figure out what words rhyme with Khanna?

That’s the legislative branch of government gone, and now the judiciary has been castrated by the Supreme Court, so all branches of government are now Nazified. June 23, 2025 - the death of democracy.

My Congressman and Rep. Massie (gulp…) are the odd couple of Congress that can’t agree on lunch orders. But they do agree that this Wag-the-Dog Kabuki Theater War is wrong. 👏

Yeah Hakeem Jeffries has been incredibly pathetic and disappointing

We have no nationally elected officials ready to fight.

For me, the whole democrat congress is out of their mind. This war power bill could not make it through anyway.

Typical AIPAC owned failed Democrat leadership.

FUCK OFF @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social RESIGN IMMEDIATELY!!!! @housedemocrats.bsky.social @petebuttigieg.bsky.social @governor.ca.gov @govpritzker.illinois.gov

Feckless

OMFG. Is Jeffries even worse at his job than Johnson is as speaker?

It’s hard to lead with one’s values when you’re paid by a foreign govt to look the other way while they commit genocide.

Sad

JFC😑

WTF?

So, emulating Mike Johnson is meeting the moment? Wtaf

He and Swalwell are egotistical, narcissistic performance artists.

Fuck you jeffries - resign

Say what you will about Nancy but my girl stood up and fought Trump constantly. In heels.

I mean, isn't the Constitution clear on this? Do we need more legislation?

No but it appears the Dem Leadership in the House and Senate needs to be bitch slapped into, I don’t know…GROWING A PAIR!!!

I agree with that, no doubt.

Sorry, but, is there at least one Democrat to carry on the fight? FFS!

Hakeem isn't the Dream. He's an effing nightmare.

He's just another synchophant protecting his major donors' interests

Absolutely! He and Schumer only answer the calls from their billionaire donors. There has to be change.

Omg. Given up?

Dang I am just a woman in ohio and I know about it ..wtf

He can never be speaker. No way.

The day you people people try to remove Jeffries, you can say goodbye to a lot of the black vote.

This is why dems can’t win elections. @schumer.senate.gov and @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social need to resign.

Aoc should be house leader/ speaker but not presidential candidate

How disappointing that Jeffries resorts to the Republican “I-haven’t-read-it-yet line..

Do it Mr Jeffries!

He has one job in my shrieking voice!

The optics are not in you favor Hakeem . . . . how about you put the petulance aside . . . . and start doing your job . . . . you're making it easy for them to dissemble . . . . seems you've noticed that Khana, AOC, Jasmine Crockett and Bernie are doing leadership (your job) better than you

It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends on his not understanding it. - Upton Sinclair Non-registered pro-Israel lobby pays Jeffries to not understand. This democrat gets it. Do you? www.trackaipac.com/states/newyork

American Kakistrocracy isn’t limited to one party.

💯

Remember when we had faith in the Dem opposition? They are weak and useless.

Ok everyone wants Jeffries and Schumer to resign their leadership positions I tend to agree, we do not need polite & nice at this point! So who do you think can to step into their positions? Seriously who?

I haven’t been thrilled with Jeffries but y’all being upset at him for saying he hadn’t looked at it yet is ridiculous! Frankly I don’t want anymore fucking leaders commenting on, voting on, or talking about important potential life changing issues without first understanding what the hell they are!

Perhaps a remedial education teacher is needed for the entire White House staffing. We already know Drumpf is illiterate.

When George Conway is retweeting Mehdi Hassan, you've reached a new level of hated.

Talking mouth piece for Qatar 🙄

They really should stop calling him a Leader.

I miss Nancy Pelosi. So many demanded that she leave her position because of her age. Congratulations - we no longer have an old person in charge and now have someone much younger. So what if he's not remotely as competent as Pelosi.

Seriously?

Jeffries and Schumer act like they've never heard the phrase "up tempo." There is no sense of urgency or call to action. It's embarrassing. They're doppelgängers for Barney Gumble and Mr. Burns.

WTF @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social ... Trump and Israel hand in hand de-stabilizing the middle east and you "haven't taken a look at it"???? RESIGN now - we need AOC in leadership. Grow a pair in the meantime. and grow a backbone.

what in the actual .... as a progressive I truly hate the lack of backbone and stupidity of the democratic party. What is wrong with these spineless idiots? what an answer ... jfc

CC: @slotkin.senate.gov, @debbiedingell.house.gov D leadership must be changed.

Too busy raising money, along with his colleagues.

Hard to argue with that statement. Haven't seen or heard from Hakeem since the assault started. Conspicuous by his absence.

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social is as useless as tits on a bull. Typical dem. Weakest, most incompetent group of clowns ever.

Jeffries has fumbled this opportunity. Just, tripped at the goal line and watched the ball sail out of the back of the end zone.

At least AOC and Bernie fight like hell.

The WORST

Schumer and Jeffries must be replaced. (And Ken Martin too, while we're at it.)

Ken Martin has only been in for like 15 min.

But where is he???

Beats me. Its not great.

Yeah, and he's already done some pretty dubious things.

Like what?

Just google Ken Martin. Multiple similar article come up.

indeed -sounds like Mike Johnson

Does @daveweigel.bsky.social know that Hakeem often answers things this way? Or is he just too excited to gossip rather than report on actual news?

George, sorry to see you join in on this. Do any of you have a vote as to whether/not Hakeem is elected in NY or chosen as House Leader?

WTF???

Name a good one

Gross incompetence.

Democrats are absolutely leaderless. We should fix that in 2026 as part of taking back Congress.

Democrats are every bit as unfit to lead as Republicans.

Schumer and Jeffries are both terrible.

"Leader"???

Really? A moderate centerist democrat isn’t considering a Progressive’s bill?? Not surprising.
