Hakeem for the win.

‘Kevin, Sit This One Out’: Democrats Close Ranks Against McCarthy’s Effort To Censure Maxine Waters

TOPLINE Top House Democrats on Tuesday voiced support for Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) and opposition to efforts by Republicans to punish her for encouraging Minnesota protesters to get “more confrontational” amid civil unrest in the state. . . .


No. 4 House Democrat Hakeem Jeffries on Tuesday pointed to controversial GOP lawmakers like Greene and Reps. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) and Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) as examples of the GOP’s “mess,” stating, “Clean up your mess, Kevin, sit this one out.”

Then again, many think it's impossible for a republican to learn anything. Some of the best minds in the country sit on the Democratic Party's side of the aisle. On the other side............ Boebert, et al.

When is McCarthy going to explain to Jordan how to conduct himself in hearings? First Dr. Fauci, and then Val Demmings. She is a 27 year police veteran and Jordan tried to shout her down on the Covid Hate Crimes Act debate.

Nixon made a public statement that Manson was guilty. This was wrong and could have cost a mistrial.
