NEW: House Democratic Leaders Jeffries, Clark and Aguilar... "We can do this the easy way or the hard way."

15. Jeffries got a lot of blowback by not whipping votes against the DHS funding bill

He’s now trying to make it up by making this statement but, it’s ultimately an empty threat. The republicans aren’t going to impeach her and Johnson controls the agenda. Jeffries’ only real power is to keep his caucus in line to show that the party is united against the abuses taking place and they blew that opportunity.

Granted even that vote would have been symbolic, but it wouldn’t have given the administration any cover, implying that this funding is bipartisan in any way. It’s time to name and shame these dems that keep crossing paths. I understand their states or districts may be competitive but by not showing a united front, it makes it that much easier for republicans to ram through their agenda, knowing there’s enough Dems they can peel away on these votes.
