Hakeem Jeffries (D).

Last night:

Mark Alford
[October 14, 2023]
Whom do you want to see as the next speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives?

One of the exchanges:

Why doesn’t Jordan have enough votes? what do we not see about him?

Mark Alford
[….] hi there
Our conference is terribly fractured. Some mccarthy people don’t like Scalise and are pushing for Jordan
Some Scalise people don’t like Jordan
The chairman of the armed services is against Jordan because of his stance on defense spending.
I’m supporting Jordan

[emphasis added]

“…The chairman of the armed services is against Jordan because of his stance on defense spending.
I’m supporting Jordan”

Think about that for just a second.

Elect clowns, expect a circus.

Elect republican clowns to Congress, expect a clown show (October 3, 2023)

This. Exactly. This. (October 4, 2023)

When all you ever do is feed the beast it will never be enough (October 5, 2023)

You voted for the rule, schmuck (October 6, 2023)

Maybe you should elect a Speaker at some point? (October 12, 2023)

This hasn’t aged well (October 13, 2023)

What else would you expect, Ann (r)? (October 14, 2023)
