Jeffries is such a corpo cunt, what a perfect drop-in replacement for Pelosi. Please for fuck’s sake someone in New York primary his ass.
WTF is with Jeffries? So what if it won’t reach a GOP-controlled House floor; file the papers to make the point at least! No wonder they keep losing, they don’t even try to make the appearance of resistance.

It’s his job to make sure the US House doesn’t actually try to do anything, because he considers any actual effort to do politics a distraction from raising money for 2026

They’ll win '26 in a landslide. And then they’ll claim their Do Nothing strategy was vindicated

Don’t count on it.
Not only are they world champions at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory 40 years or so running, but the GOP are more brazenly disregarding of democratic norms than they have been in decades if not centuries.
With all of the voter suppression (including a high likelihood that they’ll have ICE trawling polling stations for brown people and dissidents to torture and deport) and malicious reinterpretation of the powers different state government bodies have over elections, anything resembling free and fair elections might be a thing of the past already.

THAT you’re right about, though. Regardless of what happens, the infallibility of their 1992 playbook will be their takeaway.
He doesn’t seem to understand that part of his job is performance, now. The world where boring, obtuse policymaking was the norm is gone. People want their politicians to be entertaining.
The GOP understand the role, and it’s what got them a second term of Trump, Project 2025, and the wholesale prop-up of billionaires, all by very publicly pretending to be for The People.
People want their politicians to be entertaining.
More importantly they want their politicians to do things. Conservatives at least deliver on some of their promises (the evil ones, of course); liberals don’t have the decency to even try, because if they did they’d piss off their owners. Good policy is neither boring nor obtuse, because good policy helps people.
Yeah, I didn’t mean to imply that boring, obtuse policy being the norm was a good aspiration, just that it was the norm at one time.
I think the vast sums of dark money, the foreign interference and the decades of voter suppresion, gerrymandering and backsliding on democracy had a much greater role than anything politicians did or said while campaigning.
Impeach HegsethReplace Jeffries, then impeach Hegseth.
