Jeffries suggests Dems won’t help nominate ‘extremist extraordinaire’ Jordan as Speaker
The Hill ^ | 10/14/2023 | STEFF DANIELLE THOMAS

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) on Friday reiterated the need for bipartisanship amid the race for Speaker — but suggested the Republicans’ most recent choice wasn’t the answer.

House Republicans delivered Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) the second GOP nomination for the leadership role on Friday — a day after first choice and Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) withdrew from the race.

ll of this mess lands at Hakeem's feet along with Gaetz. Without the colluding Democrats, McCarthy is still Speaker and the People's business continues.

No, this is the result of McCarthy's broken promises. He lied through his ass to get the Speakership on the 15th ballot, then he broke nearly every promise he made.

Jeffries doesn’t have any interest in the Republicans not being able to elect a Speaker in that he might get enough vote from RINOs to win it ... Riiiight

I’m, still, disappointed that the very first government shutdown isn’t ongoing.

What were Republicans thinking when they ditched McCarthy before agreeing on his replacement? We’re going to end up with somebody worse.

Hakeem Skyhook sure is a rocket scientist. He should be working with the illegals down at NASA.

Bipartisanship with the Dung Beetle Party always means the GOOBs have to buy the KY gel.

It’s not up to the minority party to elect the Speaker....it’s solely up to the majority party. In this case, a minority of the majority is holding the House hostage. There is no way we would want Republicans to help Pelosi be elected speaker if 8 Dems didn’t/wouldn’t vote for Pelosi.

There is no chance Dems are going to vote for Jordan. If Jordan is going to become Speaker, it’s up to Republicans.

Jim Jordan is an “extremist extraordinaire?” Then it’s no wonder I’m on the FBI terrorist watch list. I’ve been to a PTA meeting and to mass, both!

And you don't see the problem with that? Its bettor off shutdown then with a rino/lib as the speaker. Far as i'm concerned they can keep it shutdown until the next election, where we will elect more MAGA conservatives.

This guy was one of the most vocal election deniers.

They get to live their lives normally.

Our people get destroyed.

It is textbook tyranny and it’s sad.

Here’s the math:

8 Republicans voted against McCarthy.
19 Republicans voted to allow drag queens and pride parades in military facilities including schools.

Hakeem Jeffries starts with 212 votes. How many of the 19 Pride Parade Republicans will be voting for Jordan?

As I have consistently said since day 1 - Congratulations Speaker Jeffries.
