The White House wants Rep Jeffries to apologize!

“We are gonna fight it legislatively. We are gonna fight it in the courts. And we’re gonna fight it in the streets” has the convict and House Majority Whip Tom Emmer (R-Minn) calling for an apology. These comments from Jeffries came as he pledged to push back TSF’s agenda.

My apologies if this has been posted but I haven’t seen it here. Big protests going on in LA today and one planned for the 5th. The administration better get over their hand wringing and govern according to the Constitution because more protests are coming. I’m pretty sure about that.

Ty so much!

Only thing I've seen that Jeffries supposedly said was something about the old man on a cloud sitting 9n a throne.

I’ve read some posts here about DUers being upset about Jeffries wanting to work with the opposition. Like it or not, that’s the situation we’re in and compromise is necessary sometimes but that by no means sit back and let them run roughshod over us. Jeffries and the rest of us gotta lay the gauntlet down and demand the Constitution be adhered to and that is not up for debate.
