“Leader” Hakeem Jeffries Goes Into Hiding

House Democrat “Leader” Hakeem Jeffries is trying to have it both ways. On national TV, he refused to endorse his party’s own nominee for New York City mayor, radical socialist Zohran Mamdani, with a new pathetic excuse: “we don’t really know each other well.”

Radical socialist Zohran wants to defund the police and abolish prisons, supports open borders, spreads anti-Israel rhetoric, and backs government-run grocery stores. If Jeffries can’t condemn all of this, it’s because Mamdani represents exactly where the Democrat Party is headed.

“If ‘Leader’ Hakeem Jeffries is too afraid to denounce a radical socialist who peddles antisemitism and wants to defund the police, then he’s not a leader… he’s just another Democrat being dragged around by the radical left.” — NRCC Spokesman Mike Marinella
