Hakeem Jeffries handed himself over to the DSA on a plate, and the comrades will gladly eat him for breakfast

Hakeem Jeffries is rolling out the welcome mat for the people who want his head mounted on their trophy wall.
On Saturday, the House Minority Leader offered a hearty “welcome aboard” to State Assembly members Claire Valdez and Micah Lasher as well as congressional candidates Darializa Avila Chevalier and Brad Lander, both progressive Democrats associated with the Democratic Socialists of America.
All were backed by slick DSA kingmaker Mayor Zohran Mamdani.
“Congratulations to our newest members of the NYC congressional delegation,” he wrote on X. “From public servants to union organizers to community activists, the path is different but the work is the same. We must decisively address the affordability crisis and crush far-right extremism!”
Never mind that Dems would classify immigration enforcement and a strong borders as “far-right extremism.”
But it’s pretty tough to crush the right flank when you are literally being eaten by a pack of lefty loony socialists who don’t believe in prisons or borders. Pols who think they are representing the people of Gaza, not New York City.
If Jeffries can’t see the insurgent party’s plans for him, he’s either blind or naive. But he can see it, and he’s scared. After all, they’ve already started salting and seasoning him, preparing him for a DSA roast.
