Jeffries on the House floor today, after Karoline Leavitt — at the White House podium, on her first day back from maternity leave — read aloud a series of verbatim quotes from sitting Democratic officials calling for “𝘱𝘶𝘯𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘣𝘢𝘤𝘬”, “𝘬𝘪𝘤𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺’𝘳𝘦 𝘥𝘰𝘸𝘯”, “𝘮𝘢𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘴𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘺 𝘥𝘰𝘸𝘯”, and “𝘮𝘢𝘹𝘪𝘮𝘶𝘮 𝘸𝘢𝘳𝘧𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦”: “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 6𝘵𝘩.” 𝐋𝐞𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐭𝐭 𝐝𝐢𝐝 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐪𝐮𝐨𝐭𝐞 𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐱𝐭.

The California Democrat’s “𝘬𝘪𝘤𝘬 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺’𝘳𝘦 𝘥𝘰𝘸𝘯” line was from public record. Schiff, Warren, Walz, Crockett — every quote on the slide was from a verifiable C-SPAN or recorded clip. Jeffries has no rebuttal of substance. He has only the tactic of calling the woman who read his own words back to him a liar. 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐪𝐮𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐬, 𝐌𝐫. 𝐋𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫. 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐋.
