I'm beginning to wonder if our corporate Dems and the GOP aren't colluding to maintain a balance of power that benefits themselves, skeezy corps and, now, fascists.
The minority leader said Tuesday on CNN’s “The Situation Room,” “We have a responsibility to solve problems and sometimes that means meeting with people on the other side of the aisle to figure out what the opportunities will be in order to address the things that the American people definitively want us to address..."
Uh huh. Now, tell me who elected Jared Kushner to a seat on the other side?
Jeffries is not the man for this job. He is incompetent at doing the real work to serve the American people. He only serves the oligarchs, the elite corporate class , and Israel in no particular order.
What if Jared offered up Stephen Miller as a sop to keep the House Democrats from going after his father-in-law? After all, we know that Fat Orange is loyal to no one and will do anything, sacrifice anyone to save his own shit-laden ass. Why not put Nosferatu on the sacrificial altar? He's outlived his usefulness, anyway.
Someone below wrote the content of his letter to his Congressperson.
I don't have the patience to find it now .. but I copied the entire thing, wrote my own story and salutation, did some light editing, and sent it off to my rep.
Thank you, person who made this that easy.
Anyone else who'd like to? Here's the text I reused:
"I know you are somewhat constrained in your public statements regarding the leadership of the Democratic caucus. But let me just tell you, and I speak for many, many, Democrats and Progressives, that Speaker Jeffries decision to have a secret meeting with the utterly execrable Jared Kushner crosses a line. The Democrats have not even won back the House yet and the minority leader is already making nice with one of the most loathsome faces of the Trump regime. It feels like an absolute betrayal to those of us who have been resisting this fascist regime every day for the last 20 months. It also is quite dispiriting. Why should I donate to party candidates when the Speaker is all but telling us he's going to compromise principals to work with Trump? It is exactly this kind of leadership that has driven Democratic party popularity to all time lows.
Now that the secret meeting has been exposed, I expect Jeffries to make some statement about exploring opportunities to advance the interests of the American people etc., blah, blah, blah. BS! If that was the case, the meeting could have been on his public calendar and not at some secret location in NYC.
Maybe you can speak publicly on this, maybe you can't. But I want you to tell your fellow caucus members that this was a giant, disqualifying f**kup of historic proportions. I am not donating to any party committees until he is out as Speaker. I am contacting every contact I have to urge them to act similarly."
I, too, refuse to donate to PACs. Only to candidates.
I think Kushner initiated the meeting (and then had it leaked) in order to get Dems riled up and divided. Jeffries fell for it. He's so clearly not the leader we need right now.
Mr. "Why Can't We All Just Get Along" Jeffriestube is setting up a republicanazi slow roll / lies & reconciliation tour for his upcoming role as House Speaker. Prove me wrong.
I can already hear him declaiming how we need to common ground the shit out of ICE, the Iran Fiasco, Gubbamint Grifty Fraud Epidemic, Biden's Inflation, plus a whole lot more! Which will only lead to more excuses and inactivity against the fascist fucks and their fellow fascist fuck fellow travelers a la Garland.
We're all on hair triggers about the attack on our democracy for extremely good reasons --mostly due to the Orange Cruelius, but collaborationist Dems and even those who appear to be covering for them ain't helping and should cut that shit out post haste.
Jared is kind of a mystery man - doesn't speak publicly much, so this may have been a good opportunity for the speaker to take the measure of a person with a significant role in the evils of Trump. Nothing in his public statement concerns me - I think you're selling Speaker Jeffries short....
“He’s not really directly involved in the admin, at least in the day-to-day in the White House,”
THIS. There is zero, zero reason to be talking to Kushner of all people. It makes more sense if they talked about what a shit-show the Iran talks have been, but why make let anonymous leakers set the narrative?

Or who is Jared representing if not himself?
Jeffries is a worthless vanilla-coated Oreo and corpofascist whore.
He is nearly worse than Schumer, which is quite an achievement.
Jeffries is not the man for this job. He is incompetent at doing the real work to serve the American people. He only serves the oligarchs, the elite corporate class , and Israel in no particular order.
He think he's one of them!
Spilballng here.

For a top government official, I'm sure amazed at the number of things Mike Johnson doesn't know anything about.

I'm happy someone is saying this. I agree.
And Jeffries and Schumer wonder why folks are voting against their primary choices and for DS.
How do they not understand how furious we are???
Step down.
Both of you.
This guy blows so much

So the fact that Democrats in congress don't even bother to negotiate with their republican counterparts is evidence that they're on the same side?
