Hakeem Jeffries is on with Ari right now, calling for some Republicans to show courage. That's fine, but why isn't he asking the same of his Democratic colleagues? I'm going to keep calling this BS out until it changes. YOU do something!

Hakeem Jeffries is a great leader with character, and restraint - the second he goes out and acts like a fool people will complain about that too.

1. You're right...he is not in power. Nor is he, or any other Democratic leader, utilizing their power to take massive action...that I have written about extensively. 2. #1 covers it all.

No, he's not wrong. However, it isn't going to happen, and he has no power to make them. He and every other Democrat, however...DO have the power to take massive actions (all of which I have written about in detail)...and one thing is clear: None of them have. The party is leaderless.

32 years as a concrete mixer driver, pump operator, and batch plant operator. Never once did I tell new hires to “try not to lose an arm greasing the tail pulley,” because it was too time consuming to show them how to properly lockout/tagout machinery. Leaders are participants, not spectators.

man, like i agree with you, but the Democratic party is a flaming trash pile. They are proof that term limits are needed in all elected officials. Boomers and A few Silent gens still taking up oxygen and trying to implement an 80 yr old dream, all the while disenfranchising MILLIONS...

How is it that the leadership of the Democratic party is still at the point that they’re asking for some Republicans to show courage? As evidenced by the recent passage of the “big, beautiful bill,” Republicans are nothing more then the elected members of the cult rubber-stamping the destruction …
