Jeffries’ Desperate Plea for Attention Backfires BIG TIME

Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-LA) tore into Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) for his “desperate” call for a televised debate on the Democrat-led government shutdown.

Jeffries had challenged Johnson to a debate, claiming the American people deserved to hear the discussion live. Johnson dismissed it as a publicity stunt, noting that Democrats had already argued their case on the House floor—and still failed to stop the bipartisan bill from passing.

Johnson called out the Democratic shutdown strategy, pointing to their demands for $1.5 trillion in new spending and nearly $200 billion in taxpayer benefits for illegal aliens, saying it is a costly, self-inflicted shutdown opposed by most Americans.
