I didn't believe in evil until I met a Zionist.

He disgraces the meaning of his first name and black Americans in one go ,his name means wise by the way.

Hakeem Jeffries is the worst kind of person. Slimy, self-serving misanthrope who actively works against fair laws. May apoplexy take him.

He’s just doing what every politician does: serving those who got him into office

As progressives and DSAs have been winning special elections and primaries, the establishment Democrats have been openly voicing their concern that the left-wing divisions of the party are changing what the party stands for.

To them, apparently, it's a big-tent party only so long as we offer our votes but not our opinions.

Fortunately, the party's leadership is beginning to recognize that blanket support of Israel has turned into a non-starter position. AIPAC support has become an albatross in many elections, to the point that AIPAC is using shell PACs to anonymously support opponents to pro-Palestine candidates.

More and more, it's evident that support of Israel is less about support of the Jewish peoples and more about support of a stratified world order that is controlled by an ultra-wealthy oligarchy.

The MAGA comedy act of Schmuck & Jeffries has grown boring. It's time to give them the hook, and drag them offstage.
