House Dems mocking the GOP over Elise Stefanik being sent back to the House.

Hakeem Jeffries: Trump won her district by 21 pts, but he pulled her U.N. nomination because GOP "extremists" are afraid they're gonna lose the special election to replace her.

Spokesperson for the House Majority PAC, which fundraises for House Dems:

“House Republicans are in a full-blown panic over their razor-thin majority, worrying about holding on to a seat that Trump won by 21%.

"They know they’re screwed in 2026.”

I'm glad they're scared and I wish the special election would have been held if the odds were that good for a Dem to win.

I mean, most Americans do not wake up wanting to be bossed around by mean-spirited bullies who have their own narrow interests in the forefront while they manage taxpaying US citizens as "suckers and losers," and meanwhile "clawback"
food from the mouths of the hungry.

"Hand over the social security you paid into every working day of your life,
so we can give more tax breaks to the rich." - G.O.P.

Maybe it's just me, but I think that republicon plan sucks beyond bigly.

#BeyondBigly now going viral

For the ephemeral Signal record (so I can delete and deny it later if I'm wrong),
I hereby predict a MAGNIFICENT DEMOCRATIC VICTORY

"There are others that can do a good job at the United Nations."

"Therefore, Elise will stay in Congress, rejoin the House Leadership Team, and continue to fight for our amazing American People," Trump said.

The Democrats can't win when republicans purge voters off the rolls. Or when republicans mess with the voting-by-mail procedures. Or when they gerrymander districts. Or when republicans enact laws the the SAVE act - how many female Dem voters will be ineligible.

No Hakeem, they aren't afraid - elections are rigged now. Trump admitted it.
