His policy is whatever his billionaire donors tell him. He represents the opposite of the people.

Aipac and 2pac words sound alike that's all. You are reading too much in this
You are minimizing fucking supporting genocide . Those are not just bad things , those are evil things.
Any time a Democrat refused to answer an obviously unpopular question it means they support it.
It is a meme nickname created by Charlemagne on a podcast. A pretty funny one at that. Everyone knows it is a parody on Tupac and is not supposed to represent the real Tupac.
Weren't you on the real world how the fuck are you running stuff?
I have a slogan which I believe is sufficiently stupid. Send Hakeem Jeffries AIPACing!
Fuckin' appreciated. Full caught me off guard and I was rolling trying to figure out the connection to Tupac that OP was attempting to make.
As I said, this is not everything he voted for. He made lots of other votes that you may agree with, but we can't list that when calling him a bad, bad, little incompetent man.
I don't support Jeffries. He still has to go, and I agree this needs to happen for any meaningful change, but this whole post is a bad look.
He voted for lots of things beside these bills.
It is not everything he voted for. You are cherry picking the bad stuff to insult him.
Again, I agree with you. I just don't like the framing of the title and the title alone.
This is the Progressive Politics comm. We can do better.
To be fair to AOC, she's been burned several times before by not being more tactical with her (what I perceive as) disdain for established party leadership. not saying I agree with the move now; I think now is absolutely the time she could be outspoken in not supporting Hakeem given she'll likely be campaigning for Pres the next two years. But I can see her calculus in playing cautiously.
Ok but it rhymes. Have you met people? If you rhym something people think it's true
More of these lists they show more than anything else what the politician supports.
What specifically is racist about it
He's built a mountain of bullshit.
AIPAC Shakur
Tupac came from revolutionaries and Black Panthers. Hakeem Jeffries does not have a modicum of the class consciousness that Tupac had. Find a different stupid nickname.
"He returned time and again to the themes of class inequality, wealth redistribution, and the moral bankruptcy of capitalism. He described the police as an occupying army in black neighborhoods, spoke of prisons as modern-day plantations, and decried the horrors to which US imperialism subjected the Global South. Despite his popularity, he remained angry, impatient, and unrelenting in his belief that another world was possible."
HELL YEAH BROTHERS
Even if he loses, it'll light a fire under their asses. We want the unhelpful legislators besieged and afraid of progressive challengers money can't beat.
I know he's said he's no longer running for president but I hope that isn't the case if he loses his majority leader bid. He gets a huge boost in name recognition so it's a win-win situation for him.
I'd vote for him over AOC, who has terrible political instincts. Current example: She said she supports Hakeem because he's running unopposed, meanwhile, Ayanna Pressley is making all the moves to prepare for a speaker bid.
I say call out his bluff
He's been minority leader of the house for a bit. His district could have primaried him, but didn't...
Do you know what semantic means?
I don't agree with the name either. He's a black man from Brooklyn, if anything it should be "Mossad Def" lol
Too bad it wasn't happening earlier in the year when he could've been primaried.
He seems to know the mission. This was a legitimately good speech. Feels genuine too.
