Hakeem Jeffries Stands by ‘Maximum Warfare’ Comments Against Republicans

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, a wannabe Barack Obama, doubled down on his “maximum warfare” comment he made last week despite the urge to tone down the rhetoric after President Donald Trump faced his third assassination attempt.

Disgusting:

As it relates to anything that has been said, certainly as it relates to the comment related to “maximum warfare everywhere, all the time,” in connection with the redistricting battle that Republicans launched, I stand by it. You can continue to criticize me for it.

I don’t give a damn about your criticism as it relates to anything that has been said, certainly as it relates to the comment related to maximum warfare.

So….if people like Jeffries won’t chill out, then why should Trump? And Trump is just ranting. He could be so much worse.

But the Democrats have no problem calling anyone who disagrees with them a Nazi, pedophile, fascist, etc.

Jeffries threw more egg on his face when he tried to lecture Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, who called out the leftists like Jeffries over their rhetoric.

Thank God for tools that transcribe videos for me because I cannot listen to this egotistical, holier-than-thou person:

REPORTER: Leader, I know you said you stand by your comments at the same time, you have been the subject of threats as well. So with respect to this comment about maximum warfare, even if it’s about redistricting, why not tone down the language here in this moment?

JEFFRIES: I think that’s what’s interesting to me, as you pointed out, is that the so-called White House press secretary, who’s a disgrace, she’s a stone cold liar, had the nerve to stand up there and read talking points being critical of statements all taken out of context that Democrats have made and didn’t have a word to say about anything that MAGA extremists have said or done, including providing aid and comfort to violent insurrectionists here at this Capitol on January 6, who brutally beat police officers. The President then pardoned those violent rioters, many of whom have gone back into communities across the country to reoffend.

And, as you pointed out, one of whom threatened to kill me. He said, “Kill the terrorist.” Where did that language come from? What Republicans use that language? Why did that pardon MAGA? Extremist violent insurrectionists choose to use the language of terrorism directed at me when he threatened to kill me at an event. And so how can we take them seriously when they raise these partisan attacks and completely ignore the fact that a lot of folks, including Governor Shapiro, his home was attacked by an arsonist when he and his kids and wife were there and his so-called White House Press Secretary wants to lecture America and lecture us about civility. Get lost, clean up your own house before you have anything to say to us about the language that we use.

Oh, honey. An antisemite attacked Shapiro and his family. It had nothing to do with MAGA or Democrats. It had everything to do with the fact that Shapiro is Jewish.

A pardoned rioter did threaten Jeffries, but guess what happened? He was immediately arrested.

Calm down, Jeffries.
