If leadership is cruel to people who challenge them, if they bully members "mafioso-style" to get in line, as one incoming member said - that's even MORE of a reason to reject that leadership.
I mean, am I on another planet here? What the hell is going on? They are saying "We must vote for them because they are threatening us". Dude, that's literally DISQUALIFYING.
You're clearly telling us the party is run by soulless bullies and STILL VOTING FOR THEM.
wtf?

Split screen at Capitol Hill today:
Hakeem Jeffries is arguing that he should be the leader of the Democrats — and then, as the current leader, he couldn’t get enough Democrats to show up to impeach Pete Hegseth

Ayanna Pressley hints at a run for Speaker of the House against Hakeem Jeffries
"The people made it clear that they don’t want a Democratic Party that just asserts that they are the adults in the room. They want us to prove that we are the fighters."

Dems who flip heavily Republican districts are usually treated as something between rock stars & a dying bird species that must be protected at all costs. Instead, Dem leadership is explicitly threatening to make one lose re-election if he doesn't get in line.
Incoming Rep. Don Leonard says top House Democrats have threatened to “make [his] life a living hell” and cost him re-election if he continues attaching conditions to his support for Hakeem Jeffries for speaker.
His conditions: 1) a vote on an amendment to end Citizens United and 2) “end U.S. support for the war in Iran and the country, Israel, that led us into it.”
He says Jeffries is refusing to meet with him and the threats are like something “out of a movie.”

nice! really great point from Stavros Halkias in this segment: "I do think people should face social consequences for helping evil, because we've gone completely away from that."

Somehow there's a march in NYC yet you'll struggle to find direct mention of this march from MSM which is located in NYC(!!!).
This march is happening in the districts of Jeffries and Schumer. This would seem to be a big deal. No?
🇺🇸 Thousands march through Times Square under “No Schumer, No Jeffries” signs after Democrats win the House and Senate
It's called "March for Our Democracy", and it celebrates the midterm results while pressuring the party’s incoming leadership.
Progressive groups are calling for contested votes instead of automatically returning Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries to their posts.
The split within the Democratic Party is now openly visible, even before the new Congress takes office.
