Jeffries: I think it was because the framers of this great country, they were fed up with project 1775. So they implemented project 1776.. Understand what our journey teaches us is after project 2025 comes project 2026. And you will have an opportunity to end this national nightmare
F*ck him an his theatrics.
Best lines ever.
Better f****** in this damn nightmare better hold those that have committed treason fully f****** accountable no exceptions and yes that does mean enforcing the f****** death penalty!
The U.S.A Born 1776 Died 2025 RIP.
A voice of truth, justice & the American way is speaking! I totally & fully support that!
The Republican Party will be remembered as the bloated, slovenly, glutenous, murderous ghouls they are. They performed patriotism, spewing feigned honor and fight for the very people they now leave bereft of every source of self preservation. They have no idea the American spirit. They will pay.
I sincerely hope project 2026 includes jail time. Lots of jail time.
Hmmm there’s not a good firing squad gif
What does this bill say about America's values as a Country? Expanding the debt ceiling astronomically - providing MORE tax cuts for the wealthy (GOP can always be counted upon). Cutting healthcare for hungry kids, Veterans, Seniors & Disabled? Prayers up for regular Americans!
Did Hakeem standing in his office with a baseball not do anything? Oh my gosh, I’m so, so surprised that didn’t work Maybe they can make more strongly-worded statements, it seems like those are super effective
Until Mike Johnson uses his chair powers to silence them whenever they go beyond "strong words."
His chair powers won’t protect him from getting his teeth knocked in. Maybe we try that?
What disgraceful putz. Taking about "framers" who owned all the land and bought and sold the black bodies of his ancestors. Nothing but the same old lies about a "greatness" that's never existed.
This is the opposition. And the seals behind him lol. These people have no shame.
👍
This bill should be renamed Trump's Billionaire Giveaway Bill" it takes away healthcare, housing, food, childcare and school meals potentially increasing risk of hunger and life of millions of Americans.
Jeffries: Let’s rebrand this antiviral as arsenic.
Thank you. Get loud. Make them Uncomfortable.
Effects won’t be felt until after the midterms. Not helpful.
#Project2026
We wrote this 100 days in and the party didn’t listen a.co/d/2gLFtpq
With what? Voting? It's never happening, fairly anyway, ever again!
Kick ass and name names every day until the 2026 election.
Trump, his sycophants, the Robber Barons 2.0, & MAGAts have, to paraphrase Admiral Yamamoto after the attack on Pearl Harbor, only awakened a sleeping tiger & filled us with a mighty resolve to keep our democracy in tact & to fight the fascist takeover of the US with everything we can!
Absolutely!
2026? Yeah, that'll be when Trump declares martial law and cancels elections. USA 1776>2024 RIP... That's all, folks. The traitors on Trump's Supreme Court will still be driving nails in the coffin of our republic in 2026, 2027, and 2028. www.davedubya.com/2025/06/supr...
I like it!!🌊
Project 1776 after winning the Seige of Boston!!!
If true that counties in Pennsylvania had zero votes for Kamala, why aren't democrats screaming to the world.
They're complicit Greedy corporate owned dems
🔔
@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social Do you really believe we will be able to institute a project 2026? Or does the passage of this bill end our democracy as we know it?
There is something seriously wrong with the “president’s” thinking…but all of the people who do his bidding are even worse
Republicans next project will be to suppress the vote or right the election. Count on it Folks. They aren't acting scared of the electorate, are they?
Hopefully they will reverse a lot of this crap, but hopes not high since Biden didn’t do much reversing. Seems like older democrats will protect their rich benefactors.
DEMs write and give really well worded and meaning speeches vs REPs pass legislation. Which one weighs more?
“National Nightmare”…exactly!🇺🇸
It won’t be easy. The Republican Fascist gave the felon the right to suspend Elections. We’re going to have to Fight for our right to Vote.
Where is this right?
The evil, cheating, lying, duplicitous, Republicans are putting in massive efforts on all fronts to insure that Democrats will never again win an election.
You and Schumer the spineless need to ensure not another bill gets passed nor another nomination confirmed. F 'em
Revolution and violent overthrow of tyranny. Along with accountability for all enablers. Sure there will be due process and a trial by jury. But we’re gonna need miles of rope.
As above, So below: a mirroring between different levels of existence. * As the Pope & Magisterium are the interpreters of Holy Scriptures. So the SCOTUS and the dead-letter-literal-interpretation of the Bible Christian Fundamentalist “Justices” are the interpreters of the U.S. Constitution.
We need to get on it now, and we can and will. bsky.app/profile/jess...
Perfect…gives me hope…Thank you Congressman Jeffries!
📌
By then it will be too late. Trump’s private army will be fully funded and they will simply take the 2026 elections.
PRESS ON!!!!!!
PROJECT 2026! 🗽⚖️🇺🇸
@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social it sure as fuck wont be with you as speaker of the house I know that much. you've been fucking useless until this moment. we need someone who actually does their fucking jobs the OTHER 99% of the time
I believe people who think there will be another election are seriously deluding themselves. These Nazi monsters are not building a massive ICE (Gestapo) army for fun or show. You all have a horrific awakening coming. Now, go enjoy your fireworks shows. I will spend this last day in mourning.
Why wait? We should be starting now.
👍👍👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 right on!!! Can’t wait, vote out republicans 2026 and 2028 and forevermore!
A revolution 250 years after the first one
Johnson is speaking and what a POS this guy is. He looks like a boy scout, is rotten to the core, and speaks pathological lies and propaganda like it's going out of style.
Also closeted hypocrite
Too many goddamn Americans haven’t experienced true, hopeless struggle and it shows. This 👏🏼 Does 👏🏼 Not 👏🏼 End 👏🏼 Peacefully.
End it ? How? Trump will still be in office and SCOTUS will still be the same and all the awful policies will continue. Maybe in 2029 but not sure we can survive.
A Fight for Life MUST begin NOW on behalf of ALL "Good, Honest Americans!" We have NO alternative!!!! 💪💪💪
Like the French did.
A nice sound bite, but it's naive to think there will be elections in 2026.
Agree
And even if so, it really kinda speaks to being out of touch that his sense of urgency is to help people who are being disappeared…. In a year and a half…. Bc remember, the election is 2026 but the term isn’t til Jan 2027. Sorry but I cannot applaud this.
What “next administration”
Excellent!
FAX Congress now. Their phone lines might be busy so fax from your computer at faxzero.com/fax_congress... They all profess to be Christians. Show them their hypocrisy
I hope it won’t be too
So where is the project 2026 (or 2029) by democrats. We have got to stop just reacting to the dictator and present a united plan to voters. Start with abolish ICE, overturn citizens united, imposing term limits, and taxing the rich.
Universal healthcare, universal child.
Way to go!
It's a nice sentiment, but I'm tired of Democrats using this shit as campaign fodder and then not doing anything to counter or reverse the damage once they get elected to office. Actions speak louder than words.
Exactly. They can go back to begging nonstop for campaign donations when they actually show us our ROI.
This guy is fucking useless
Blah blah blah. Please go DO something, anything.
This clown fights way harder against Momdani than he ever does against Trump and his fascist cult. Primary them all.
Jeffries was paid $800,000 to by AIPAC to support the genocide of Gazans. Nothing he says is more significant than that fact. He isn't part of the problem. HE IS THE PROBLEM.
oh look. Jeffries came out from under his bed where he's been hiding for the last 6 months.
I started watching around 5 and he was going case by case reading republican constituents letters🔥
So, then, when are the Dems going to publish their Project 2026 for our review? After all, the Heritage Foundation completed and published Project 2025 a full 2 years before Trump’s 2025 inauguration. Do the Dems have a similar plan, and when will we see it?
💙🤍❤️
Talk is cheap. Dems need to fight fire with fire, not yakking for long periods of time. I like Jeffries, but he and his party need to show their balls are bigger than the GOP.
If you don't win elections, you don't have the votes to stop bills like this. Fire is not votes.
lol. They are not following the rules. They are pissing all over the Constitution. This is where “going high” has landed us. It’s funny, those of us who’ve lived well under the poverty line most of our lives know you cannot win with pleasantries and civility against evil.
We haven’t had the luxury to entertain fantasy. You have to meet them at their level at some point. I’m sure the very bottom will come to the rescue once again.
The fantasy is that you can just shout and yell and that will change the fact that you lost the vote. The reality is that the GOP convinced a lot of the left that "They are both the same" so they would stay home while convincing the right to come out...because they aren't.
Who’s talking about shouting and yelling? That’s not how we get out of this. Too late for words, regardless of delivery.
If you couldn't get people to show up to vote, what makes you think they will show up for what you are proposing? That's the fantasy world you are living in. 5 seats in the House, this bill doesn't exist. But people didn't show up. But you can give them a Reichstag Fire...
We clearly have different backgrounds. When enough people are feeling the squeeze so many of us are used to living - it’ll happen. Happy to revisit this conversation in about six-nine months.
Grew up in a trailer park, got out because I got out of trailer park thinking. I've been poor, I've been desperate, know how bad this will make things, that is why I fucking told people they weren't the same. Win elections you pass the laws, lose they do until there aren't votes anymore.
And it didn't stop the CULT OF THE GOLDEN CALF...well, a lot of American voters put a CONVICTED FELON back into the "white house" and as the cuts begin, they'll feel the pain too, as well as what it's like living in a POLICE STATE...sow the wind, reap the whirlwind...
Let's goooooooo!
He was great today - I would love to see HJ challenge Trump to a debate
The expansion of ICE, the cuts to Medicaid... these will not be automatically reversed unless more people wake up and take action.
If the 2025 project refers to the Republican-controlled Big Beautiful Act, then the 2026 project may depend on the election results. But winning or losing the election is just the beginning - real change requires sustained organizing, legislation, and judicial struggles.
Good trouble
Good trouble does nothing to fight fascism, it is only blue vanilla fluff.
Is he gonna talk until then because that's probably the only way we will survive.
Seriously look at this loser and his loser friends applauding him lol
Whine little weasels
Democrat politicians chan’t come up with a better name?!!!!
Too late. i would have loved to see this rally cry before this big beasty bs passed. Dems always do the same.. Let the Rebublicann hang themselves first before we say a word. I am tired of political theather. Mean it and do it every day or I'm not going to listen. Life time Dem. Just not this bs
💯
Now in true cult fashion endless posts about Jeffries being a hero for running his mouth for hours. Like Booker, he achieved NOTHING. If it gives you good feelies to listen to these weak, 2-faced "politicians" without examining their records & monetary contributors, enjoy your mess. You deserve it
this is all he can do; we are in the minority. We get a chance to change that in November 2026. Be sure to actually vote, and vote blue.
Change is highly unlikely if we keep doing the same shit with the same people. The definition of insanity is to do the same thing over and over and expect a different outcome. Great speech btw, I hear it was dramatic and "heartfelt"🙄
What?!?!! You mean we can’t just talk and wish our way out of this??! You mean we can’t just continue to respectfully beg them to follow the Constitution and play by the rules we all agree on? Fucking shocked. This is my shocked face.
Start writing project 2026 and project 2028 and make them part of the campaign. @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social
I did the homework. So are we starting a new government or what?
Fuck aipac shakur
I hope there are midterms
I'm not counting on it.
That was perfect.
Right! Don’t give up! Vote those who voted to pass this horrific horrible bill out in the Fall. Then reverse it!
AMEN!!
I wish I believed that
Hakeem Jeffries has taken 1.3 million in Israeli/Zionist lobbying money & laughed when confronted on the genocide in Palestine. He needs to be removed.
And seek revenge. Don’t forget. We’re going to want revenge.
Yeah, we'll see. I've watched every situation/ conversation over the past decade & am horrified to see how little Dem politicians & Dem voters actually DID to stop this. Ppl have become very self-centered, lazy & stupid.
Didnt he just fight Logan Paul? Read "ICE seeks to deport Mexican boxer Julio César Chávez Jr., alleges links to Sinaloa cartel" on SmartNews: l.smartnews.com/p-5KePNnTW/l...
Hope he's right. I've been so depressed and worried that there will be no future elections. Perhaps I'm getting ahead of myself on the whole dictatorship thing. Personal pledge: if there is another election, I'll be there with at least 2 others. I brought 1 other last time. 2 shouldn't be a stretch.
Unfortunately, several generations will live with this national rape. We were fed up long ago, and our representatives chose money over people.
I want to hear more of this from ALL DEMOCRATS!!!!!!!
So instead of spouting "Project 2026" as a cool-sounding buzzword, why not actually put down, in writing, detailed explanations of *what* Democrats propose to do and *how* it will help people on a ground-floor level? 1/
Write the blueprint, make it what your voters actually WANT. Stop with the triangulations that you've decided will somehow change the minds of people who have adopted "I hate liberals" as a whole identity. It's a cliche, but you preach to the choir because that's how you make them sing. 2/end
Jeffries saying what he thinks we want to hear. Where’s the plan for Project 2026 to fight trump, his administration, and the GOP? Is it just we the people voting for democrats who haven’t been working for us so far? Jeffries needs to resign.
DO SOMETHING! We don’t need your speeches or Schumer’s strongly worded letters. We need fighters and action. Take the gloves off
youtu.be/LdCpPzDC8dQ?...
Jeffries is so ineffective. I appreciate his effort here, but since the election, his canned political speak and near paralysis in interviews have made me apoplectic.
Don't you realize Donny Two Shoes is working on removing that opportunity?
Nothing will change. MAGA is a death cult
Change is constant and an individual only gets to choose from options. Too many may be no better than too few.
Then let's accommodate them
They’re welcome to speedrun themselves to the death part, I don’t know why we have to be dragged into it with them
Right? I think the Democratic Senator should’ve gotten the Murkowski deal. Let the red states fuck themselves.
Hey I live in one of those fucked red states tyvm
Stay safe up there. I've never been more grateful to live in California than I am right now.
I appreciate it even though I don’t live there anymore. I live in another totally fucked red state! Worried about my friends in Idaho too.
I used to live in ur state, grew up there, am SHOCKED that Boise turned out for demonstrations this year (after outrageous covid behavior). Now I'm in the the Biggest Blue state and paying big taxes to keep YOU afloat. Flip your state and pull your weight!
Ha, I don’t live there anymore, but I too was SHOCKED at the No Kings protest across the state. The Boise event was 3X the size of any protest I attended there.
Do not tell me you moved to ANOTHER red state!
I’ve only ever lived in red or purple states.
The good jobs are in the Blue states. Just sayin'
Unfortunately it depends on the industry, but generally yes I agree
There aren’t blue and red states. Every single state has both. Those designations are made up and used to suppress votes. Don’t do the republicans’ work for them. They’re counting on you to keep using their language. It’s propaganda.
You missed the banter. And I am dogged in trying to get changes made to allow for 1 person - 1 vote in presidential elections while maintaining the all important district lines for local budgeting
I did miss it. Stand by what I said about the linguistics of it, but thank you. Hell yes, that is what is needed! When we get this Nazi infestation out of office, we gotta make big changes.
Do it exactly the way did, quietly and in pieces... local level changes for voting and registering, put your own in office and move FAST.
Sorry. Do you rely on rural hospitals and medicaid?
I don’t now, but life throws curveballs, so who knows about the future.
True. In the meantime, you seem to be safe from the mistakes of your state MAGAts
Oh, none of us are safe. If I have an accident in the middle of nowhere, it’ll take a lot longer to get lifesaving care. And entitlement cuts will cause funding for hospitals everywhere to bottom out. Rural hospitals will be hit hardest and first but the cascade failure will impact everyone.
Yup. Oh well. We're in a dictatorship and we are all serfs now.
1) No, not yet, but 2) Remember how most dictatorships end. Goal-setting is important! 🙃
When they lose their medicaid, snap, and hospitals they'll all finally die off
All of us will.
Read it now to em alllll
I think it was because the framers of this great country they want the free Labour back with project 1775. Immigrants are Trump's Free Labour living in camps! So they implemented Project 2025 No Due Process for the 'Free Labour'! 'ICE'
Right on!
Yes we can 💪
Yowza! Howza?
That is IF we have a chance to end this nightmare. If our new mentally deranged FELON DICTATOR & the CORRUPT GOP have their way there won’t be a 2026 election
No matter what, Americans will embrace our right to vote for sanity in government in Project 2026. So we press on with hope for a better future for all Americans, not just for billionaires!🙄
"Send us $20, or we shoot Lady Liberty!"
Make sure that those plans are being made. Please.
All this dude does is talk. Yawn.
Rigged elections, like they hold in Hungary
I think there is only one way
America is now in a civil war for its future as a democracy. Donald Trump and his Project 2025 administration are the same enemies that our forefathers fought in 1860, 1917 and 1940. Each of these people have plotted for the last 4 years to overthrow our goverment and install themselves as rulers
You never know. The next parade just might be when millions of poor and desperate citizens roll guillotines up onto the National Mall. The republicans will get what they get. And in the end, exactly what they deserve.
I don't believe Vance for a minute. He's lying.
Should be wary of politicians encouraging citizens to wait for a later date to start fighting back. Especially politicians that take money from foreign governments.
Useless collaborators
Oh nice! And then what happened?
I hope this mention of Project 2026 isn’t hyperbole. Democrats absolutely should be working on this and campaigning on it. And please don’t be lazy by just promising to restore what’s been lost. This should be an opportunity for transformational change.
@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social
the brightest minds seem to be democrats
Will we?
Sick of this whiny hack. Definition of walks like dog, but would rather play with his tail. Where are the real reps at?
The only uplifting words I've heard today. Thanx Rep Jeffries.
And it is a nightmare—of great proportion—watching everything we pay taxes for ripped out from under with no context—just pure evil-give to rich take from everyone else including—services they are due!
Not so fast… We haven’t had a free and fair election since… well, I’m old & I can’t remember when. It’s been a real long time.
#NationalNightmare
Preach, baby!
I want to see legislation that undoes all that Reagan put into place during his tenure. That’s how you get my vote.
Words are weak in today's terrorist America. Wake up or risk never waking up. He/they removed protection security for opponents, condoned and committed murder, and disappeared citizens. Do you think domestic terrorists do anything but laugh at this stupid crap? Take collective action to protect. Or
it will not be done by democrats
Democrats are the only actual chance we have in 2026 but of course here’s some bluesky “leftist” doing the GOP’s work for them. 🙄
democrats are not a chance. it's as if you didn't watch biden doing all the anti humanity stuff just like the republicans. the only difference is trump is also loud and offensive. the agenda is the same.
the democrats are the other cheek of the same buttocks and are no chance at all.
The depth of your ignorance is profoundly sad. I honestly believe you can’t tell the difference, but that speaks more to your limitations than anything else.
it's just by accident that the democrats do the same thing as the republicans. sure. i'm gonna say you should watch brian berletic on continuity of agenda but you must love your ignorance too much.
Democrats and Project 2026: we won't to anything meaningful and be out of power in a few years
Too bad he’s spent the rest of his career defending the oligarchs that have ushered in this fascism.
$150 billion over four years for the new SS (ICE) and these folks think there will be free and fair elections in 2026. Gutless speachifying.
What a poser. Thinks he’s Obama. Don’t like that he doesn’t endorse Zohran. Democratic Party needs to evolve and serve the people. At the moment, they’re as bad as GOP. CHANGE NOW!
Yes!
If maga has its way, there will never be another free and fair election.That's the plan..trump told them in 2024. If he won, they would never need to vote again.
Actually a very good sound bite. This is the Jeffries I used to know.
I hope they get a 2/3 majority because trump will veto any Democrat bill in 2027.
Not if Trump executive orders the shit out the elections just days before.
I think most people are unwilling to see how bad this is all going to get.
pls keep talking please keep talking do not stop
he stopped :( dammit
Dems wanted vote in daylight. Not 5 am, in the dark. Last 10 minutes of speech very inspiring. People wanted fight, this was fight.
They were quite literally words, no action. Nothing to stop the bill. Feckless, incompetent, opposition party. Replace them all.
i know, and I am sure talking for that long took its toll, but i wish it could have been longer. long enough to delay the bill until monday - but yes, voting for it in the light of day is best
Great my ass. The Farmer's owned slaves. It has been a lie from the start.
But slaves we're not freed by the USA in 1776 or for the next 90+ years. We're not even following the amendments that we're supposed to further free black people. 2026 will be far worse unless we fight now and fight differently, more effectively, more ingeniously.
Theoretically, if things stayed the same. But does Hakeem think MAGA acts like they’re afraid to lose power next year? Because I don’t think so. 🚨 How do we guarantee free & fair elections under a criminal regime? I don’t believe they plan to let us have one. What’s the plan for that, Dems? 🚨
I'm old enough to remember when people wanted to come to the United States, as opposed to now, when most sane people want to get the hell out!
#VoteGOPOutForeverPrimaries2026
until he cancels it then what does america do?
Losers
Umm, isn’t everything in this bill, now law? They don’t have to put up a fight after this is signed and many will retire or not seek reelection.
All his and Booker’s grandstanding did shit to stop the Big Fucking Bill. 👎😡😡😡😡😡 Democratic Leadership is a joke. Vote Independent.
So you want people to vote independent and further water down the vote. Sounds like a great strategy. Works so well in 2000, 2004, 2016, and 2024 didn’t it.
Fuck establishment dems. It’s time for a great purge of our representatives. Corporate dems are just republican lite. They have allowed all this to happen with nothing but empty and futile gestures and posturing. They are complicit to why we’re here. The whole of Washington is not for the people.
And the new Dems will get their asses handed to them time and time again. What’s worse? Establishment Republicans or establishment Democrats. I’ll take the latter any day. They are not actively trying for o destroy my life.
Gotta say I’m done with this ‘lesser of two evils’ bullshit. A) we need percentage based, ranked choice voting and B) maybe the dems should have a better platform than ‘at least we’re not republicans’ AGAIN. I’m about as far left as it goes and I’m sick of the whole thing. Burn it all down.
Yooo there’s a candidate I can get behind!!! All hail mighty Cthulhu
I’ll take option C, viva la revolución, comrade. Fuck all of them. They’re all on the same team big guy. The AOC’s, Crocketts, Bernie’s, even Mamdani now are the blue I can get behind. Outside of the select few, new local grassroots names or we can give the Declaration of Independence another round
Tell me which Democrat voted for this. I’ll be waiting patiently. Hard to do anything substantive when you are in the minority and only one side follows rules and procedures. Republicans have shown us that ethics and morality don’t matter. Winning is the only thing to them.
How could they stop it when they are the minority?
They did nothing. Nothing but run their mouths.
Need to implement project 2026 and 2028
Dumbest shit the Dems came up with. Let’s ride the coattails of project 2025. They have zero originality or any plan. We desperately need new leaders if this is their big plan. Jesus…
Not if you’re still in charge.
Big beautiful meltdown.
Sure you will. Those elections that will never happen should get you out of this mess. Suckers. You are well and truly screwed.
👍👍👍#TeamHakeem💙💙💙💙
Still stumping for the midterms. But at least they are closer.
Not if you guys don't learn how to fight on their level.
Bomb threats in Canada; Hey you Capitol is south "We the peoples" 340,000,000 vs 🐛kkk terrorists Expose GOP on medias; crypto bribes, insider trading, market manipulations, attacks on citizens and women rights Main target; GOP bbbill steal 3 trillion$ and 47 = king shtt youtu.be/FP808MiJUcM?...
Democrats are against women in sport, but for Illegals and criminals, they are against babies in the womb, but for planned parenthood selling baby body parts, they are against war stopping but for killing Jewish people. Trump is still winning. Michael
Folks - why do you think they’re building a 150 billion dollar “Project 2025 Army”? Because they don’t intend to have a 2026 election. That’s why.
Oh don’t be silly! We’re going to keep relying on words and hope! Our collective naivety will pull us through! 🙄 Sick of this dumb shit.
I really like Jeffries, unfortunately rhetoric won’t change this fascist regime. Elections will be rigged and the terror of 10,000 new ICE ( Trump militia) is just about to begin.
Assuming we're able to stop the republican voter suppression that cost Democrats millions of votes in 2024...
We are ready.
That’s an active call to treason and insurrection weakly veiled.
We won't last until Nov '26... there will be NO VOTE. Why doesn't anyone get that?
"A prince, whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people," is a powerful statement about the colonists' belief in the importance of virtuous leadership. Declaration of Independence
