And trumphf just got off a 1 hr long call with Putin! Imagine he’s patting T on the back for getting this bill thru. Republicans always show their true colors & we know they will all fall into line & vote YES! Good try tho Hakeem.
I give him credit so they couldn't pass the Bill in the middle of the night or early morning. At least people will know when they vote on it and not just a News "clip". I don't know if he threatens their families or what to get them to capitulate, BUT THEY TOOK THE JOB AND OATH -- now they are puppets of this Administration. God help us all.
The jab at Elise Stefanik should serve as a reminder to Republicans. Trump is not loyal to them or true to his word. He will hang them out to dry if it means advancing his personal agenda.
Nasty, Dr. Lisa. Did your book not make publishing? Did you write a book? Sorry, off topic. This is not about buy my book. It’s about caring about something other than money or personal gain. Oh yeah: children, education, elder care, healthcare and not making a deal with the devil. Literally.

THANK YOU MR JEFFRIES. YOU ARE SO ABSOLUTELY CORRECT THAT YOU ARE STANDING AT PERHAPS THE LARGEST CRIME SCENE OF ALL TIME!!! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU FOR CARING SO DEEPLY ABOUT YOUR FELLW AMERICANS, UNLIKE SO MANY RAPACIOUS OTHERS.
Absolutely true. All across America people are appalled at the cronyism, the grift, the billions snd billions of dollars given to ICE (the bill includes hiring thousands of more ICE Agents—which barrel will they scrape them off of?), constructing Alligator Auschwitz type facilities in EACH STATE. So many parts of this bill point to thumbscrew control and hardship of the electorate and fancy perks and license for the ultra wealthy. And the timing of when the pain of many of these changes will hit the electorate is AFTER the midterms, in many cases, assuring that those who get their news mostly from ephemeral tv and video will glibly vote GOP in again and then get slammed when it will be too late to respond. The bill needs the time to be completely overhauled and the administration is pushing threatening cajoling and pushing some more to have it signed into law by July 4th as a flashy photo op for the president rather than a serious benefit to the citizenry.
Called my rep and reminded him that eventually he’ll get thrown under the bus just like his constituents, so he should take this last opportunity to do something right. Gorram Trumpkin Latino doesn’t grok that he’s already on the deportation list from those Nazis running the show 🤦🏽♀️
As my mother used to say- I’ve got the prayer wheel spinning. The lack of conscience or minimal care is not part of this administration. The Republicans will be responsible for every person who can’t access healthcare, housing or food. These deaths are on them.
I'm watching Jeffries speech live now. It is quite amazing. I'm doubtful it will change any GOP Representatives' votes, but it does reveal how horrible and evil those people are who can vote YES on this Big UGLY Bill.
Way to go Jeffries 💙💙💙💙🙏🙏🙏🙏
Happy to see a filibuster that isn’t performative!!
He will speak as long as he can in hopes that someone listens.

Republicans fold quicker than lawnchairs
Yup..like Taco Trump, our Congress is CACO Congress!!! Oy. Glad Jeffries is doing this. Im calling my Rep.

Oh I'm sure he threatened with a multitude of things seeing that's how he works.
Very true. Reminds me of Don McClains Bye Bye Miss American Pie. This feels like the day the music died. :(
I have lost all hope, but I still appreciate the coverage. Thank you Aaron.

Excellent point! He will turn on all of them, when it suits him.
Finally, Jeffries does something useful instead of promoting his book.

Oh please, he literally stopped a vote not long ago with another filibuster. Stop it. Is that your rep because he’s doing really well.

Thank you. I appreciate that.
I'm lost. Who do you mean by she?
Literally a typo since "he" is used later. Read the whole comment for context if you get confused that easily.
Another dirty bird comment. Rarely make errors, Danielle. It’s ok- really. Pronouns have become a thing, that’s all. Easy typo, logical confusion.

GOOD. They deserve to be anxious and annoyed because that is but a fraction of how we the actual people feel.

This is perfect response!
Called my rep begging him to vote no.

Me too...and I never do that. This is literally a death sentence of a bill. :(
I don’t care if he reads all GOSPELS, slowly, taking pauses for reflection. I’d stay up to listen to it. I need a refresher anyhow!
Ive always said Jeffries and Lin Manual should get together and write a musical. Its very cool we have a hip hop representative.
Good ALWAYS OVERCOMES
EVIL. Thats what I am holding onto. Thank you Hakeem! For the love of God! Please drive some senses into the nonsensical! This should be a no brainer!

Keep going, Hakeem!!!! 💙💙💙💙💙

Sadly, just a delay. These civil servants refuse to do right by the people.
