House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) predicted Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that Democrats would win the majority in the House of Representatives in the 2026 midterm elections.
Jeffries said, “Let me make clear that the House is a separate and co-equal branch of government, the Congress. We don’t work for Donald Trump. We don’t work for the administration. We don’t work for Elon Musk. We work for the American people and we have a responsibility to serve as a check and balance on an out-of-control executive branch. That’s the constitutional blueprint that was given to us by the framers of the United States democracy that we have inherited over the last few centuries.”

He’ll certainly be right if Trump doesn’t our asses out of Ukraine as his people DID NOT vote for that.
What a moron. The House is not a separate and co-equal branch. That would be Congress. The House is co-equal to the Senate which makes up Congress. This idiot may be the next Speaker. How pathetic.
ROTFL! Skyhook Hakeem speaks.
Hacky the Lefty needs a date with Madame Defarge.
I would rather see Hakeem “The Dream” Olajuwon in national political office instead of this grifting POS.
NEVER underestimate 1. The ability of Republicans to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. 2. The ability of the Democrat election fraud machine in the big blue cities to move elections from the lose category for Democrats to the win category based on illegal activity including illegal aliens voting, ballot harvesting, etc And finally don’t under estimate the raw stupidity of voters.
Take Jeffries seriously and be sure to get all of your conservative friends and relatives to do the same and don’t sit home on Election Day
RATS have a strategy.

These people always talk big. They need to be shut up.
Someone needs to bet him a million bucks it won’t happen. Would any of them take it up?
Pretty good chance actually. The House has not implemented DOGE findings into law, flipped us the finger on ending Social Security taxes, still loves Ukraine, and has passed less legislation than any Congress since around 1950. They aren’t lifting a finger to stop the judicial insurrection.
The margins are razor thin... the GOP is giving nobody any reason to vote for them, and the communists are going to cheat and game everything they can.
Wait a minute...Is he the same person who said Harris would win in a landslide? Methinks he knows not of what he speaks.
Their shipment of Filled Out Ballots has arrived from the Chinese Communist Party ?
Jeffries, you don’t “work” for anyone...You just sit back and take money from taxpayers...
Why is that statement news? Would he be expected to say anything different? Of course he will say that.
The Speaker is more far powerful than the Senate Majority Leader. And the Congress is the most powerful branch of government.
The “co-equal” phraseology is gaslighting...the founders never used it and would be surprised we called it co-equal.
That’s the last thing America needs is a dem house, especially with Hak’m running it.
Probably will. The other party almost always gains in midterm, and generally has fairly big gains in the 2nd midterm. It’s the lather rinse repeat of American politics.
When I get up in the morning I Hakeem Jeffries for a few minutes to clear my throat.
Is this why Trump is treading so lightly with the district court traitors? Fear of impeachment? As if they won’t do it anyway?
