Hakeem Jeffries

One big word worth learning is “schadenfreude.” Schadenfreude is “pleasure derived by someone from another person’s misfortune.” Nothing better captures the perverse pleasure that Democrats are deriving from the pain inflicted on our country caused by the government shutdown. Democrats precipitated this shutdown to force Republicans to back off efforts to turn around our suicidal growth of…

Another weekend rolled through, with the elitist media doing their level best to actively avoid covering the biggest political scandal since Watergate: the weaponization of the federal government against Republicans and conservatives known as Operation Arctic Frost. Instead, the Sunday shows ran their clocks out with a mix of off-year election previews and shutdown apologia.

For the late night comedy shows, joking about Democrats in 2025 usually consists of lamenting the party isn’t socialist enough. To help this cause, on Wednesday’s edition of The Daily Show, radio host Charlamagne Tha God swung by Comedy Central to attack party leadership for not enthusiastically falling in behind Zohran Mamdani's New York City mayoral campaign, lament that the party…

It looks like CNBC Squawk Box co-anchor Becky Quick is fed up with the Democrats’ hypocritical nonsense over the ongoing government shutdown.

If this exchange between House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) and CBS’s Margaret Brennan is any indication, it would seem that some partisan gerrymandering is more acceptable than others. Ditto for the acceptability of talk of “rigged elections.”

On Thursday, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffires (D-NY) made his routine shutdown propagandizing to disparage Republicans, this time with Wolf Blitzer on CNN’s The Situation Room. Blitzer teed up Jeffries to redirect partisan blame onto Republicans for violent rhetoric and hurting those directly impacted by the ongoing government shutdown.

If you are a regular viewer of CNN, or most any of the leftist 'mainstream media', you know that left wing guests usually go unchallenged while repeating talking points, are permitted to make unsubstantiated claims, and allowed to dodge tough questions, should one be asked which is unlikely. But this past Tuesday on CNN's Inside Politics, host Dana Bash shocked this viewer during her…

More of this please, NBC. Monday’s Today and co-host Craig Melvin followed through on its promise to speak with House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) about the government shutdown after throwing down with House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) on Friday. To his credit, Melvin used the limited time (3:47) to repeatedly press Jeffries on his past statements about government shutdowns…

Wednesday’s PBS News Hour featured dueling Democrat-Republican interviews on the government shutdown, from House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) and Rep. Mike Haridopolos (R-FL). Can you spot the difference? Nawaz: "We have also seen the president continue to post these racist videos with a sombrero superimposed on Leader Jeffries' head. Why does he keep posting those? What's…

For day one of the government shutdown, ABC’s Good Morning America showed its rancorous liberal bias with back-to-back interviews Wednesday of House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) and Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY). Co-host George Stephanopoulos fully embraced his background as a one-time Clinton official by berating and screeching at Johnson while providing Jeffries a…

It is not looking good for Democrats after they refused to compromise on a deal to fund the government in the upcoming months, but as per usual, their favorite fixer, Google, is on it. 

Despite the only group standing in the way of averting a government shutdown at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Wednesday are Senate Democrats, ABC, CBS, and NBC have all taken their side in demanding a permanent extension of ObamaCare subsides that were meant to be temporary during the pandemic (along with a whole host of other goodies, including refunding PBS and NPR). Shutdowns have long been something…

After a Friday World News Tonight report on the possibility of a government shutdown, ABC might need to rename its network DNC because throughout the segment, host David Muir and White House correspondent Rachel Scott combined to utter the phrase “Democrats say” three times while never once using the equivalent “Republicans say.”

Since Wednesday’s deadly attack on a Dallas, Texas Immigration Customs and Enforcement (ICE) facility by an anti-ICE loon, ABC, CBS, and NBC followed an identical pattern from their coverage of Charlie Kirk’s assassination by cowardly refusing to tie the incendiary rhetoric from their own side about the Trump administration and its supporters to crazies taking matters into their own hands. …
