Why does Mike Johnson keep shaking his head yes to making things better for the poor people when he is going to do whatever Trump tells him, not to do anything for us.

To do what, exactly? Jefferies is there for Jefferies and his career. He doesn't give one fuck about you or me. He's just like the rest of them.

@evaleyst after the Nov 5th election the democrats know they have to cooperate I don't know where u have been. The country went republican and Jeffries knows he has to cooperate or democrats stand to loose again. The democrats are in noooo position to act stupid
Hakeem Jeffries is such a hard working leader of the democrats i wouldn't be surprised if he runs for president one day . I know he would have my vote . 💙 Mini mike is just spouting words not the truth .The house speaker has a fork tongue.
Oh, they watched. And they all sat there like the collective and worthless bumps on logs they are. Not a one applauded when Hakeem Jeffries told them point blank that SS, Medicare, Medicaid and other benefits are OFF their chopping block. These aren't entitlements, they're earned by the workers and their employers.
Let the republicans cut military benefits and VA benefits. The democrats shouldn't be trying to save them anymore . Give the maga voters what they voted for !!
Social Security is just a giant load of cash that when the rich see they’re just itching to get their hands on….just watch..,they’ll be coming after your 401k next……..they can’t resist stealing it when they see all that money!
Omg it was so good. He didn’t have to name call, put people down, disrespect, make up fairytales, threaten, lie, (the list could go on and on) to get attention and make an impact. THAT’S what actual leadership looks like.
Did y'all see Johnson's face when Jefferies was speaking he would nod and then his face would turn red and then he choked a little bit😂😂, Jeffrey set the bar high!! Thank you!!
Just like his reactions to Bidens State of the Union speech. Everyone saw it, even donOLD saw it. Johnson got a whooping from donOLD and his gang of thugs.
Love me some Hakeem Jeffries. He would make a fantastic Speaker of the House. I hope he seeks higher office one day. Great representative of my generation, Gen X.
Now, if the Democrats will just uphold the Constitution and seek a vote on Amendment 14 Sec 3, then I will truly believe they are fighting for the American people... IMHO 🫰🏼
Make no mistake; millions of us are banking on the skills of Hakeem Jeffries. We need this man to help protect Social Security and Medicare. I think he can feel our desperation.
Have pretty much eliminated from my internet diet the constant arguing between 11-year-olds that has become our political landscape. Hakeem Jeffries' calm, mature, measured responses in the midst of this chaos are so refreshing!
I truly believe that Hakeem Jeffries' speech was one of the best. I have ever seen! I think he will be a strong player for many years to come in the Democratic Party. I believe that he could be a formidable Presidential candidate at some point! He's always clear, concise, and right on point, and he says everything with conviction! Great job Hakeem!
Hakeem, used to be my house representative until we were redistricted in Fort Greene /Clinton Hill in Brooklyn. Every couple of months he had designated places where we his constituents could go and speak to him about our issues. One time he asked me, how do feel about me being re-elected. I told him, you'll have no problems. I miss him in my dostrict so much.
Losing my HARD EARNED Social Security income would be a death sentence now that I'm elderly & in fragile health. These people are monsters to even THINK that they have a right to rob us of the retirement WE worked HARD for ALL our lives. Especially when they KNOW it'll be fatal for MANY of us. They've turned positively murderous with blood on their filthy hands
That is what they want. They want us to drop dead after we get a certain age so they can spend all that Social Security money they have borrowed from for so long that it supposedly keeps becoming unsustainable. At least, that is what Republicans say. They have to make room for those unwanted pregnancies children and orphanages for the children their single mother leaves them because of pregnancy complications they can't get healthcare for.
Now that Trumps put so many in his cabinet…we’re also paying their salaries travel and living expenses out of our tax dollars………and you know for sure they want all the expensive stuff and everything ‘first class’!
How come Obama bailed out the banks? How come joe has to pay off college educations when those corporations that hired those people should pay a wage where people can afford to pay off their debt? How come democrats have imported a foreign work force that has undermined the working class for decades?
Unfortunately, that's what the speaker of the house,Mike Johnson say will continue. He clearly said they will extend Trump's tax cuts. Those making close to half a million dollars or more are the only ones getting that tax cut. Those making under a half million or less are paying the tax
Now, if the Democrats will just uphold the Constitution and seek a vote on Amendment 14 Sec 3, then I will truly believe they are fighting for the American people... IMHO 🫰🏼
@Really730-om4ui a game?? When democrats sit back and allow maga reps to takeaway your medicare/veterans benefit etc just maybe you will come to your damn senses and understand that both parties are not the same...
@@Jake-nk4wg Canadian here, are there some rallies going on to stop Trump being President under the 14th? Maybe all the MAGA who are learning could stand up.
Mr Jeffries is the man thank god he said what needs to be said , as a 67 year old proud retired black trucker , I was to worred America was going to lay down and accept these billionaire taking the 💵💰the American people put into our S. S. all of our life’s , y’all please have a great day 😊
Right! I’m your age. Can you imagine them taking our SS. And people that have no families, in a nursing home. Trump just wants to kill us. Like all the people he killed during the pandemic for his negligence.
I’m hoping that the MAGAs gets rid of Johnson within a month. By doing that there will be more infighting on the right. I truly believe when the primaries start again in 2 years Representative Hakeem Jeffries will be the new speaker of the House. He will do a great job for the American people that want a better future and a better way of life.
Thank you Rep. Jeffries and Democrats for actually working for all Americans, not just the rich and wealthy. And thank you for protecting and fighting for our social security, Medicare, health care, veterans benefits and the less fortunate.
Democrats under the leadership of Hakeem Jeffries give me hope that the rights of Average working Americans and the poor will not just be abused without them putting up a good fight. There are the midterms coming. How about if we vote to put them in the majority to make it easier for them to pass bills for our benefit.
Thank YOU Hakeem for supporting our hard working Americans! Trump will be NO president of mine, EVER! I'm marching with the TRUTH and LOVE for our nation and not for HATE.
@@darrenbell6718Um NO HE ISN'T!!!! I'll NEVER recognize him in that position!! He doesn't deserve it nor has he earned it. He's a misogynistic, fraudulent, lying, deplorable, criminal dictator wannabe and nothing more!
I watched and listened to this speech life , yesterday, but when I read the comments left by Republicans I thought that they had listened to another speech that I had heard. My my they are so full of hate and resentment. They would rather be poor than get helped by a democrate.
I listened to Mr. Jeffries’ speech yesterday. I felt so proud to be a card carrying democrat. Life long. I know some people have become “independent” . I feel a person has to take a side. JMHO. I’m a Army veteran and now I’m old enough for my social security benefits and Medicare. I’ve paid into the system since I graduated from high school. Many don’t realize the military also pays social security and Medicare taxes. I was injured on active duty so I get a very small disability check. It has never stopped me from working as a RN. So to touch the benefits that I have truly earned from working over 45 yrs and serving my country during multiple conflicts is appalling. I have always voted for the party that’s in my best interests. I didn’t always agree with some policies, but I knew that overall the Democratic Party had most of my interests at heart. I’m not sure why some think as a person grows older they become more conservative. Definitely not true for my friends and I that graduated undergrad. We recently had a class reunion and it was amazing how progressive we all are. These women were still out there fighting for women’s rights and human rights. We’ve got 2 years to fix this travesty. We have to stop the tangerine turd and his minions from destroying our country any further. Only one thing has he ever said that I agree- we have to fight like hell or really won’t have a country! Thank you for allowing me to rant just a little bit. I’m in the 92% club. We can’t afford for us to go back💪🏾💪🏾💙🇺🇸
Keep hoping... Nancy Pelosi is still operating the machine from behind the curtain. AOC had the votes to lead the Dem side of the Oversight Committee until Nancy pulled some strings.
It’s nice to hear a speaker, speak for the people of America and not for the billionaires or Trump/ Elon/ and the rest of the destructive MAGA party. Good on you Hakeem!
Thank you Ben to show the details of Mr. Hakeem Jeffrey's speech at the House. Such a powerfull, brilliant and strategical speech. It seems like a House Speaker's speech.
And then they MUST pass the voting rights act, term limits and ethics laws for SCOTUS, and a law protecting abortion rights. And they SHOULD enact the change to universal healthcare.
Search the speeches of H. Jeffries , Jasmine Crockett, AOC, Raskins --They are ALWAYS SPEAKING UP FOR US . Search the hearings . We MUST GIVE THEM MAJORITY POWER to see and experience their work
I want my Social Security payments or refund me every dime I paid in and my employer paid in on my behalf, plus interest. MAGAT crooks sre not entitled to my money.

Now that Trumps put so many in his cabinet…we’re also paying their salaries travel and living expenses out of our tax dollars………and you know for sure they want all the expensive stuff and everything ‘first class’!
How come Obama bailed out the banks? How come joe has to pay off college educations when those corporations that hired those people should pay a wage where people can afford to pay off their debt? How come democrats have imported a foreign work force that has undermined the working class for decades?
Unfortunately, that's what the speaker of the house,Mike Johnson say will continue. He clearly said they will extend Trump's tax cuts. Those making close to half a million dollars or more are the only ones getting that tax cut. Those making under a half million or less are paying the tax
We MUST GIVE DEMS MAJORITY POWER.
We MUST some ownership in stopping those disgusting lying Republicans
Thank you Hakeem, you are a Beautiful soul i work for those benefits, 34 year. Thank you again.
Now.that is how a speaker of the house should deliver a speech to the people bravo Hakeem you the man😊
Thank you Rep. Hakeem Jeffries. We appreciate you standing up for us. You should run for President one day. I would vote for you.
Jeffries needs to run for president. That’ll get Trump running for the hills.
Now, if the Democrats will just uphold the Constitution and seek a vote on Amendment 14 Sec 3, then I will truly believe they are fighting for the American people... IMHO 🫰🏼
Hakeem has more intelligence in his pinky than the entire rethuglican party has collectively!
@TB-yp4un
You are so right no matter what others try to infer.
😂😂😂 rethuglican
@Really730-om4ui a game?? When democrats sit back and allow maga reps to takeaway your medicare/veterans benefit etc just maybe you will come to your damn senses and understand that both parties are not the same...
👏⚖️💪🇺🇸👍
Rethuglican party for the win🏆
I just love Hakeem. He speaks from the heart.
Thank you Hakeem Jeffries! A leader America deserves.
I have chills listening to Hakeem and I am not even American.
Thank you and we are doubly proud of him. 🙂🙂🙂🙂
@@Jake-nk4wg Canadian here, are there some rallies going on to stop Trump being President under the 14th? Maybe all the MAGA who are learning could stand up.
@@lisebeaudoin707you're not known for your intelligence are you?
He is AMAZING !
I’m going to keep screaming WE MUST GIVE THE DEMOCRATS MAJORITY power to see and experience their work
Oh that there were more Hakeem Jeffries' in Congress, men of good moral character, sound minds and concern for the American people. 💙
Hakeem Jeffries is a wonderful leader and well respected as a human being
TY Rep. Jefferies for a powerful speach. We are in for a big, long bad ride
Speech, please. The spelling you used was obsolete 100 years ago.
AMEN Hakeem Jeffries!
He is a patriot and true leader.
What a speech!!! Thank you Hakeem!!!! You sure know what you are talking about. You are loved!! ❤ Keep going Sir!! 💪
Mr Jeffries is the man thank god he said what needs to be said , as a 67 year old proud retired black trucker , I was to worred America was going to lay down and accept these billionaire taking the 💵💰the American people put into our S. S. all of our life’s , y’all please have a great day 😊
Right! I’m your age. Can you imagine them taking our SS. And people that have no families, in a nursing home. Trump just wants to kill us. Like all the people he killed during the pandemic for his negligence.
HAKEEEEEEEEM❣️💙🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
I watched Jeffries speaking. It was awesome 👏. 😎🇨🇦
I’m hoping that the MAGAs gets rid of Johnson within a month. By doing that there will be more infighting on the right. I truly believe when the primaries start again in 2 years Representative Hakeem Jeffries will be the new speaker of the House. He will do a great job for the American people that want a better future and a better way of life.
And we need to make it so. 💙💙💙
@ 💯 percent agree
Well done Hakeem. Great to hear a statesman speak.
Hakeem is an intelligent man unlike Johnson
Johnson has smarts; however, he is spineless and the sheep/puppet of "mama" Felon Trump and "pappa Musk".
I really inoquivicly wanted Mr. Jeffries to become speaker
So refreshing to hear someone stand up with courage and truth against Trump and MAGA!
HAKEEM JEFFERIES FOR PRESIDENT 2028!!
Things can happen, especially if he's Speaker OH.
I will be 72 yrs old then but I will be there to cast my vote. 🗳️
A President of the USA? .... or Israel?
@@orainey890He’s only 54 right now.
@@orainey890 I'm 73 be 74 in a couple of months and I would vote for him. I know a good thing when I see it.
Go Hakeem go!!! So much respect for you!
You are the Greatest, Jefferies❤
Thank goodness there are some adults in the room. And not spoiled little babies trying to play government.
Mike Johnson is a weak joke period.
Thank you, MTN, for your independent journalism coverage!
Submission needs to be the new slogan of the Republican Party.
The elephant icon needs an added nose ring...
Try….subjugation…….they are subjugating themselves to the will of Z President Elon Musk!
Thank you Rep. Jeffries and Democrats for actually working for all Americans, not just the rich and wealthy. And thank you for protecting and fighting for our social security, Medicare, health care, veterans benefits and the less fortunate.
Thank you Hakeem for fighting for our rights and being our voice proud to be a Democrat 🙏😇🥰
Leadership is essential.
@kampfer3146 Don't speak with your mouth full.
The Democrats make me proud to be an American🇺🇸🇺🇸
Me too!
@@Hollywhite1
I’m not American but I respect and admire your Democratic leaders. They’re awesome. 💙
Democrats under the leadership of Hakeem Jeffries give me hope that the rights of Average working Americans and the poor will not just be abused without them putting up a good fight. There are the midterms coming. How about if we vote to put them in the majority to make it easier for them to pass bills for our benefit.
Thank YOU Hakeem for supporting our hard working Americans! Trump will be NO president of mine, EVER! I'm marching with the TRUTH and LOVE for our nation and not for HATE.
um, yes he is! 😂
@@darrenbell6718Um NO HE ISN'T!!!! I'll NEVER recognize him in that position!! He doesn't deserve it nor has he earned it. He's a misogynistic, fraudulent, lying, deplorable, criminal dictator wannabe and nothing more!
The man has balls. Stand up far right….
If you're working class and vote Republican you're voting against your best interest
How is it democrats are so bad at messaging they can't get working class votes?
But too ignorant to realize it
They won't listen.
So very true👍
They don’t care.
I watched and listened to this speech life , yesterday, but when I read the comments left by Republicans I thought that they had listened to another speech that I had heard. My my they are so full of hate and resentment. They would rather be poor than get helped by a democrate.
Rather be poor AND RACISTs, bigots
Thank you Hon. Jefferies
I listened to Mr. Jeffries’ speech yesterday. I felt so proud to be a card carrying democrat. Life long. I know some people have become “independent” . I feel a person has to take a side. JMHO. I’m a Army veteran and now I’m old enough for my social security benefits and Medicare. I’ve paid into the system since I graduated from high school. Many don’t realize the military also pays social security and Medicare taxes. I was injured on active duty so I get a very small disability check. It has never stopped me from working as a RN. So to touch the benefits that I have truly earned from working over 45 yrs and serving my country during multiple conflicts is appalling. I have always voted for the party that’s in my best interests. I didn’t always agree with some policies, but I knew that overall the Democratic Party had most of my interests at heart. I’m not sure why some think as a person grows older they become more conservative. Definitely not true for my friends and I that graduated undergrad. We recently had a class reunion and it was amazing how progressive we all are. These women were still out there fighting for women’s rights and human rights. We’ve got 2 years to fix this travesty. We have to stop the tangerine turd and his minions from destroying our country any further. Only one thing has he ever said that I agree- we have to fight like hell or really won’t have a country! Thank you for allowing me to rant just a little bit. I’m in the 92% club. We can’t afford for us to go back💪🏾💪🏾💙🇺🇸
Your rant actually relieved me … Thank You
Don't be afraid to pass the baton in the Democratic Party. The younger folks are ready.
We need the combination of energy, experience and wisdom. That's what Democrats are doing.
Keep hoping... Nancy Pelosi is still operating the machine from behind the curtain. AOC had the votes to lead the Dem side of the Oversight Committee until Nancy pulled some strings.
Pelosi needs to get out of the way. She's done her job and is now out-staying her usefulness.
@@susanzemke6569 She did . . .
Why not McConnell? She can talk, he's been zoning out in the middle of interviews.
BOOYAH!!!! REPUGNICANTS WASN'T READY 😊
It’s nice to hear a speaker, speak for the people of America and not for the billionaires or Trump/ Elon/ and the rest of the destructive MAGA party. Good on you Hakeem!
*for
Thank you so much, Hakeem Jefferies for speaking with & for the American people! Standing ovations, strength of applause, well deserved!
Thank you Ben to show the details of Mr. Hakeem Jeffrey's speech at the House. Such a powerfull, brilliant and strategical speech. It seems like a House Speaker's speech.
I wish Hakeem would have been elected. He is such a good speaker and good man.
He's bought and paid for by AIPAC l, pro-Israel
He sucks
@@richardhudak4571Little Johnson sucks even more and you know it!
2026 will be his year
I have so much respect for Mr. Jeffries.
HAKEEM FOR THE WIN!
That was a great zinger to MAGA Hakeem. I love it
Jeffries: 🗣️”Let me be clear….” 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽💙🇺🇸🇺🇸
Now that IS how it’s done. Amazing speech. Take notes spineless MAGA Mike. 💙
It about time they openly stood against the MAGA agenda. We have two years to take both houses back. VOTE💙
Less than two years! They will literally start campaigning next year!
And then they MUST pass the voting rights act, term limits and ethics laws for SCOTUS, and a law protecting abortion rights.
And they SHOULD enact the change to universal healthcare.
Search the speeches of H. Jeffries , Jasmine Crockett, AOC, Raskins --They are ALWAYS SPEAKING UP FOR US .
Search the hearings .
We MUST GIVE THEM MAJORITY POWER to see and experience their work
Thank you Hakeem Jeffries.
