It might be triage. The centrist dems still have a slim margin in the House, and apparently leadership is threatening newcomers to stay in line. Basically, if they oppose him too openly he may make their jobs harder next session. It’s petty, but what can we do?
The senate is a winnable battle. That’s where we need to focus our energy.
Even if that is true, its our duty as the electorate to hold Jefferies and every other Blue MAGA mother fucker accountable, and to make their lives a living hell until they surrender to our will.
So protest every time they betray us. Let them know No Kings applies to democrats too. They don’t get a pass just because they offer us placating lipservice.
Additionally, continue contacting your representatives to voice your opinion on upcoming votes, and your displeasure when they let you down. Make notes of any congresspeople who vote against the interests of their constituents. Primary the hell out of anyone standing in the way of the things that need to happen.
There are ways to call a vote to the House floor without going through the Speaker, so the SML is the more important battle anyway. If we can get someone to replace Schumer, that will still be a huge success even if Jeffries becomes Speaker.
If Van Hollen wins the SML, which is seeming more and more likely, it’ll cancel out a lot of Jefferies’s limp-dick MAGA and Israel loyalty.
Jefferies supports the Iran war and ICE, and will tell the house to support them too. Van Hollen will take Jefferies’s approved budget for those items and wipe his ass with it before throwing it in the trash.
And the best part? It’ll highlight to the electorate the absolute trash that is Jefferies. Who knows, maybe they’ll vote for a new Speaker afterwards like the GOP did to get Mike Johnson.
