I can't wait for Jeffrey to be Speaker of the House! Smart Man 👞

[Cabnr]

Can we please give the leadership role based on merit, and experience and not based on race and gender.

[SkyeRangerNick]

The workload is off the charts for those roles and it's all hands on deck for the foreseeable future. Communication, commitment, and clarity have been strong points these past many years and it looks like they will continue. I am glad to see these names front and center.

[susanavilez]

Just give us sane, honest, intelligent, thoughtful, humble, fair, firm, friendly, calm, cool and collect. Opposite of the insanity on the right.

[johndowner]

Stay tuned for the Republican House of Horrors in January 😫

[davemulka]

Wait, what about fetterman? Hes one of the dems finest. Shouldnt he get a leadership role? FETTERNECK FOR PRESIDENT !!!

[Paul-lmgv]

Jeffries is a political hatchet man - just the right person to fill the shoes of the political hatchet woman!

[renzo]

They’re all corporate hacks especially Jeffries who punches left more than anyone.

[trumpcard]

Gen z and study shows you maxed out your credit due to inflation. Proud of yourself?

[letsgobrandon]

[Nicki-qm]

[MaximumA]

Yeah let’s get more incompetents to lead. So pathetic!

[annab]

Here we go again, the TROLLS are attacking in the comments.

[sanusiebarrie]

Bye bye bye old Democrats is about time

[scottcampbell]

[u.s.family]

CONGRATULATIONS REPs: HAKEEM JEFFRIES, CATHERINE CLARK, PETE AGUILAR CONFERENCE CHAIR NEW LEADERSHIP.

[mikeb]

Why do they always say first black first woman. If people keep separating it will never be equal . Just pick a person and that's it. Period

[johnshepard]

Let's see some coverage of the FTX scandal !

[peziki]

It's great these folks are working together. It would be very good to see Mr. Jeffries step into Nancy's job.

[ajlacostewm]

Notic they call it TOP DEMOCRAT LEADERSHIP POSITION, but don't mention that it's a MINORITY POSITION, and carries not power in congress.
