If you didn’t stay up to watch Kevin’s acceptance speech (sounds like it was written by Marge), you didn’t miss much. Mostly, it was about giving all members of the House, but mainly the insurrectionists, the freedom to participate and pursue their independent agendas. They are all individuals. They can think for themselves. They can run with scissors if they want to!
But if you missed Hakeem Jeffries’ speech that came right before it, then you missed a defiant Democrat schooling the Republicans on what it means to have principles – alphabetically.
This will be the speech that everyone will be talking about in the morning. It anticipated the emptiness of the other side and the absurdity of trying to get things accomplished when you believe in nothing except everyone for themselves.
There are some on Twitter saying it reminded them of Obama’s speeches. It seems to have that flavor at first. But Obama didn’t know how to stick a shiv in and turn it like Jeffries. Chicago was mostly wind. You do not want to mess with Brooklyn.
Wait for it. It’s good (especially F, M and Q):
