You pathetic racist.

Because he did the hard work of earning those positions, and worked with her, an effective leader, and learned from her.

You will not discount his achievements with the same rhetoric MAGA uses to belittle the successes of Black men and women.

In this specific case? Absolutely. She made Hakeem the Number 2 Dem and cleared the way for him when she stepped down as Dem Leader.

You're not going to my waste time on this anymore. We know why Hakeem was chosen for the gig, and it wasn't because he was awesome. #Machine

So the only reason the Black man is in his position is because he was ‘made a successor’ not because he did the hard part of earning the spot?

jakemadtown.bsky.social @jakemadtown.bsky.social · 46m

He's House Minority Leader because Nancy Pelosi made Jeffries her successor. It's not because he has any special skill beyond that, as far as I can tell. So why wouldn't it be a personal, NY machine-related reason here?

But go on and curl up into that Bubble and throw the race card as a shield.

When the American people give Democrats their power back?

And Biden claimed that he’d hold those responsible for Jan 6th accountable. Without committing to specifics, Jeffries is just performing.

Or he could be the House Minority Leader for a reason. And he’s been doing what he needs to do to keep his position so that when the time comes, he has the power to hold them accountable?

Y’all are just angry the Black man isn’t doing what you want him to do.

And also because it affected someone he likely knows personally as part of the NY Dem machine. Funny how that focuses him.

The most frustrating thing about all of this as a Portlander is that there are real issues in Portland that need addressed.

And yes, more law enforcement would help many of those issues.

Denying reality helps nobody.

The influence of Israel is amazing. Were the skinheads right?

If you believe in indigenous rights and right and wrong, you’d care.

This is how we know ‘the left’ is just performative nonsense.

Just think of the type of person you need to be to even think of that. Like who is holding on to that grievance? Imagine, in 2025, being concerned with whether or not the veterans of this massacre kept their medals.

The Serfs (youtube.com/theserfstv) @theserfstv.bsky.social · 14d

US soldiers opened fire on a group of mostly unarmed women children and elders in the Wounded Knee Massacre slaughtering over 300 Lakota civilians. Survivors witnessed troops chasing down children running away to butcher them.

Only a nazi regime would want to honor that
