Hakeem Jeffries will keep fighting Trump and GOP congressional leaders unless they agree to these Democratic asks:

“Cancel the cuts, lower the cost, save healthcare. Eight words. Not complicated for [Trump] to understand, and that’s the starting point for our conversation.”

The fundamental underpinning of democracy, which we spread around the world, is an apolitical, independent criminal justice system.

James Comey’s case is a joke that will never stick. But the damage Trump is doing to the rule of law will leave a lasting stain.
