"Chuck and I grew up, literally, in the same [Brooklyn] neighborhood. I am older than Chuck, but we went to the same elementary school, the same high school. We were on the Banking Committee together when I was first elected to Congress. So I have known Chuck for a long time, and I like Chuck, personally. He’s a very nice guy. But, I think, in this moment in American history, Chuck’s views are way out of touch with where the American people are at—and especially with where [the base of] the Democratic Party is. On issue after issue, I think he is just not in tune with where his constituents are at." thenation.com/article/politi…

I've spent my life reporting on corruption. The "bold anti-corruption" agenda from @neeratanden & @RahmEmanuel are small-bore measures designed to deter/distract from a *real* anti-corruption agenda. This is a real anti-corruption agenda: theguardian.com/commentisfre… Don't be fooled

If this happened during the Obama or Biden administrations, it would be the top news for weeks.
A Tomb Guard from the U.S. Army’s 3rd Infantry Regiment, “The Old Guard” was forced to verbally reprimand Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and a group of his senior advisers Wednesday after some in the group laughed and loudly talked in front of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington. Video of the incident, posted by CNN, shows Hegseth standing and taking photos in front of the tomb with his wife, Jennifer, chief of staff Ricky Buria, deputy chief of staff Patrick Weaver as well as senior adviser and deputy assistant Tami Radabaugh, following a ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery for Veterans Day.

Hakeem Jeffries couldn’t whip a vote out of a wet paper bag.

Dear Democrats, Chuck Schumer is a mistake we can't afford. It will unwind a historic election. Schumer has been in office for 52 straight years. Enough. newsweek.com/chuck-schumer-c…

Sen. Warnock declines to back Schumer for leader, saying: "I think we're at an inflection point in our country. Voters are demanding that we stand up and fight for them; and so any member of my caucus that feels like they should lead in this moment, I look forward to hearing their case."

I see the AIPAC Bloc of the House Democrats failed to show up for the Hegseth vote today. We’ve got a serious fucking problem in this country.

Liberal groups are organizing against Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, whom progressives criticize as too close with corporate donors, too supportive of Israel and too weak to effectively oppose President Trump. wapo.st/3VdtOPk

At the EXACT TIME there's a backlash to the coronation of Hakeem Jeffries as Speaker, he FUCKS UP THE IMPEACHMENT OF HEGSETH BY NOT WHIPPING VOTES!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is a major Hakeem Jeffries fail. You could have impeached the war criminal Pete Hegseth but Dems didn't show up to vote.

Watch “Surviving Ohio State,” a documentary on HBO Max in which Jim Jordan, the new House Minority Leader, is exposed for his role in the Ohio State wrestling team sexual abuse scandal. So he might actually be an appropriate choice to represent the current Republican Party.

All the Democrats in the House are using the excuse that no one else is running for Speaker. That's why they have to back Hakeem Jeffries, who is opposed to all of their policy priorities. Then, why don't one of you run against him? Why do you have to concede power to the establishment? Presumably @RoKhanna and @AOC are going to run for some sort of higher office. What's everyone else's excuse? Why doesn't @GregCasar run? Or nominate a progressive/populist to run? What's the point of being a progressive leader if you aren't going to lead?

The 11 Democrats who didn’t vote on Hegseth’s impeachment:
The 11 House Democrats who didn’t vote in the effort to kill the Hegseth impeachment resolution (which succeeded 210-204) were: Brownley Correa Hollen Hosford Jackson (IL) Pelosi Pettersen Stansbury Stevens Strickland Wilson (FL)
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Jake Tappers' tweet contains errors. Vote was 211-204 (Roll Call 317), not 210-204. Absent Dems: Brownley, Correa, Gillen (NY; not Hollen), Horsford (NV; not Hosford), Jackson (IL), Pelosi, Pettersen, Stansbury, Stevens, Strickland, Wilson (FL).

Sure, house Dems will have 259 seats in January instead of current 213. And Hegseth impeachment can be reintroduced. But Hakeem having 11 Dem absences today on Hegseth (thus losing vote) reveals a Hakeem leadership problem. Embarrassing.

Here are the 11 Democrats who couldn’t be bothered to show up to impeach war criminal Pete Hegseth: Nancy Pelosi (CA-11) Haley Stevens (MI-11) Julia Brownley (CA-26) Lou Correa (CA-46) Laura Gillen (NY-4) Steven Horsford (NV-4) Jonathan Jackson (IL-1) Brittany Pettersen (CO-7) Melanie Stansbury (NM-1) Marilyn Strickland (WA-10) Frederica Wilson (FL-24) If these 11 Democrats had showed up, Hegseth would’ve been impeached 215-211. There are no excuses left to make. The Democrats couldn’t even show up to hold a war criminal accountable who bombed an elementary school and mass murdered children.
BREAKING: Thomas Massie’s resolution to impeach Pete Hegseth fails in the House 211-204, after 11 Democrats failed to show up for the vote. If those 11 Democrats had showed up, Hegseth would have been impeached 215-211.

It has never been more clear that Dems need new leadership. This is unacceptable
Insane that 11 Democrats couldn't even bother to show up for an impeachment vote after the actual voters rejected the Iran War. What is going on?

Hegseth won't be impeached because 11 Democrats didn't show up. But that's not the whole story. Hakeem Jeffries wasn't just an incompetent leader, he told members to "vote their conscience." That's a greenlight to miss the vote. Why? Israeli lobby wants pro-war Hegseth in place.
