Hamas Caucus Begs Hakeem Jeffries for Help As the Walls Come Tumbling Down

Few will be shocked to find out that some of the same radical Squad members (and their allies) who have alleged, without evidence, some of the vilest and incendiary things about Israel in the aftermath of the Hamas terrorist attacks against Israeli civilians are now running to House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.), begging him to call off powerful critics ahead of the Democratic primaries.

Reps. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) and Cori Bush (D-Mo.), for instance, are facing formidable primary challengers who have in part been motivated by their stance on the Israel-Hamas war. As a result, the Progressive Caucus PAC led by anti-Israel Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.) has been aggressively pushing Jeffries to protect them from criticism and primary challengers, warning that whatever money they burn through in the primaries will be money they don’t have in the general election:

In a closed-door meeting at party headquarters last Thursday, the three lawmakers who lead the Progressive Caucus’ PAC met with Jeffries and Rep. Suzan DelBene (D-Wash.), the head of House Democrats’ campaign arm. They told the Democratic leader he needed to keep the influential American Israel Public Affairs Committee out of Democratic primaries.

“If we have to spend a lot of money to keep our incumbents in office, then that’s less money that gets spent on frontline districts and districts we can pick up, so it is a real problem,” said Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.), a co-chair of the PAC. “And that’s why it’s really important to be clear to AIPAC that they need to stand down and that we are going to vigorously defend our members.”

Despite the open war of words going on in the Democratic Party now regarding who stands where in the battle between Hamas terrorists and Israel – which manifested itself in the pro-Hamas rioters’ attack on the DNC HQ, Jeffries has maintained that he will back up members as he tries to get Democrats back in the majority in 2024.
