‘Leader’ Hakeem Jeffries has temper tantrum over Zohran Mamdani

August 14, 2025

House Democrats’ Minority “Leader” Hakeem Jeffries just had a live, on-air meltdown because CNBC’s Squawk Box dared to ask him about Socialist Zohran Mamdani’s radical policies.

Instead of condemning Mamdani’s dangerous agenda, Jeffries lashed out at the question itself, proving once again that national Democrats are too afraid of the socialist takeover to even acknowledge them, let alone stand up to them.

“’Leader’ Hakeem Jeffries’ hissy fit says all we need to know: he’s more upset about being asked about socialism than he is about socialism itself. The Democrat Party is being run by its most extreme members, and Jeffries is their spineless figurehead.” — NRCC Spokesman Mike Marinella
