2. Why are you throwing Hakeem Jeffries into this? It makes me not want to read the thread.

Saturday

I was reading about a Texas man who was threatening Mamdani and then I see a dig about Hakeem Jeffries in it.

Is this gonna be about Jeffries? Is it gonna be about Democratic leadership? Really?

No wonder Democrats don't win. With friends like that who needs enemies. Tying a Black Democratic leader to hate crime??????
