Democrats are taking the House back in 2024

And Hakeem Jeffries will be voted in as Speaker of the House on the FIRST VOTE in January 2025.

And we have plenty of videos to use in TV ads about how bad Republicans are at actually running anything.

And I am NOT taking no for an answer.

And that was BEFORE Roe vs. Wade was overturned.

They don't have much of a lead right now. That's what caused so much trouble for McCarthy. They expected a huge red wave last year and it didn't happen. They thought they'd have a margin of at least 25 seats.

Democrats are working very aggressively with the aim of getting the House back. Remember how Dems messed up getting those House seats in New York in 2022? We're not making that mistake again.

I believe this is correct. The RepubQcans have elected another Trump Svincopath to do his surrogate bidding. They've rehitched their wagon to the Trump Wagon Train of chaos.

Normal people (75% of the voters) know the truth about Trump.

I remember crying with frustration in 2018 and 2020 because I was so sick and tired of working 20 hours a day to flip House seats and keep the Presidency.

But we MUST do just that next year!
