I agree that it is good that Jeffries is speaking out in defense of Omar, but I would argue that the only reason he is defending his progressive colleague is because he’s been recieving a bunch of pressure to do so. It is very obvious why the leader of the party is not defending Omar; it’s because of the progressive ideals she espouses.
Leftists need to continue pressuring the Dems apparently for them to do the basics of their job. I see no reason why Jeffries would defend Omar without having experienced the pressure and criticism. He and the other Establishment Democrats in leadership positions have been actively sabotaging and holding back their progressive flank.
Hakeem Jeffries saying, “This is bad y’all” is the same as police showing up to a shooting and playing Candy Crush on their phones. I want Hakeem Jeffries to pledge launching an investigation and using whatever power his party has, even if it ends in the president pardoning the people responsible. Just like I wanted the police to storm into the school and take down the shooter killing children. I want action being done.

Don’t move the goalposts you compared the democrat’s reaction to the raid of Omar to be the same as the police response to Uvalde shooting.
Which is bullshit.

I get this all the time from leftists.
“Why aren’t the liberals doing anything?”
“They are you just aren’t paying attention”
“Well they should be doing more!”
You’re just doubling down on the false equivalency now.
