House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) on Sunday said Democrats will not focus on impeaching President Trump if they regain a majority in the lower chamber after midterm elections.

“I’ve made clear from the very beginning that our top priority is going to be to drive down the high cost of living,” the House minority leader added.

The House minority leader has lauded Democrats’ push for redistricting nationwide in an effort to pick up additional House seats and signaled that the party will advocate more for working-class Americans, after Democrats saw losses from the key demographic in the 2024 election.

Since you don't want to understand why Jeffries is intentionally trying to depress Dem primary turnout and you're doing exactly what he wants...

What is that weird "obligatory" thing you've included?

Edit:

Never mind, it's super old propaganda aimed at dividing the working class along racial lines so we don't unite against the wealthy oligarchs...

Settlers argues that the class system in the United States is built upon the genocide of Native Americans and the enslavement of Africans and that the white working class in the United States constitutes a privileged labor aristocracy that lacks proletarian consciousness. Arguing that the white working class possesses a petit-bourgeois and reformist consciousness, Sakai posits that only the colonized peoples of the United States constitute its proletariat.

The solution is abolishing the class structure, not squabbling over who's where on the bottom of the pecking order.

If we abolish it, it doesn't matter where someone was, because it's gone.
