House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) on Sunday said Democrats will not focus on impeaching President Trump if they regain a majority in the lower chamber after midterm elections.

“I’ve made clear from the very beginning that our top priority is going to be to drive down the high cost of living,” the House minority leader added.

The House minority leader has lauded Democrats’ push for redistricting nationwide in an effort to pick up additional House seats and signaled that the party will advocate more for working-class Americans, after Democrats saw losses from the key demographic in the 2024 election.

    If you’re an American then it is up to you to find a good candidate. It’s not going to work if you wait for someone to spoon feed you the “right”(enough) candidate.

      I regularly encourage people to get engaged in the democratic process, especially primaries, as well as participating in workplace organizing and activist efforts. Please enjoy one of my many homemade copypastas:

      Organize, protest and elect. Emphasis on organize and protest.

      1. Get as involved as you can with activist efforts locally.
      2. Organize, network, focus on building solidarity. Join or form a union. Join the IWW.
      3. Vote at primaries and elections for the best candidate, even if you doubt they can win.
      4. Don’t punch down.
      5. Don’t punch left.
      6. Educate yourself, politically.
      7. Push for voting reform and for anything that breaks the two-party system.

      This is just… Its such a hilariously insane sentiment to express. I’m like, genuinely glad that shitlibs can’t help themselves and are willing to just live with their whole ass hanging out. Just, honestly, thank you. Thank you for always saying the quiet parts out loud. You make it so much easier to identify and understand why and how liberalism ends up at fascism.

      And what you are doing is important, even if its naively so. We need this kind of thinking documented, if only to study in an effort to make sure no one ever repeats it.
