From Breitbart: Democrat Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) is facing blowback after calling for supporters to fight President Donald Trump’s agenda not only legislatively but “in the streets.”
“Right now, we’re going to keep focused on the need to look out for everyday New Yorkers and everyday Americans who are under assault by an extreme MAGA Republican agenda that is trying to cut taxes for billionaire donors and wealthy corporations and then stick New Yorkers and working class Americans across the country with the bill,” Jeffries said during a press conference on Friday.
“That’s not acceptable. We are going to fight it legislatively. We’re going to going to fight it in the courts, and we’re going to fight it in the streets,” he added.

Jeffries is being pounded over his threat to “fight it in the streets.”
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt demanded an apology. In a statement to Fox News, Leavitt said, “While President Trump remains focused on uniting our country and delivering the mandate set by the American people, the House Minority Leader, Hakeem Jeffries, incites violence calling for people to fight ‘in the streets’ against President Trump’s agenda. This unhinged violent rhetoric is dangerous. Leader Jeffries should immediately apologize.”
Conservative filmmaker Robby Starbuck wrote, “Dem leader Hakeem Jeffries is calling for people to fight “in the streets” against the Trump agenda. Extremely irresponsible language. This shows you how desperate the Democrats are getting.”

He needs to lose his spot. We don’t need the extremists in positions of power.

@RepJeffries Specifically HOW do you propose that you will oppose @POTUS “in the streets,” and when you say “we”, who else has agreed to do this with you?

Sounds like a rallying call for violence. He should be arrested and charged with sedition at the least.

Below is the video of Jeffries’ entire press briefing, in which he made the brazen remarks:
Meanwhile, journalist Laura Loomer picked up on a highly controversial situation from Jeffries’ press briefing. She wrote:
One of the women in the video below of House Minority Leader @RepJeffries Hakeem Jefferies (a client of Judge Merchan’s daughter), is wearing a shirt for the organization KAVI, a non profit organization called Kings Against Violence @KAVI_Brooklyn.
According to KAVI’s public Instagram account, the address for KAVI is the same address as the Kings County Hospital, a taxpayer funded hospital in Kings County, New York, located in Brooklyn. This is all publicly available information and business addresses, so it’s not a violation of TOS per
X, since it’s a public business address.
Why is a taxpayer funded hospital in New York sharing an office with a Black “social justice” entity that promotes Marxism and is now participating in threats of violence against the Trump admin with @hakeemjeffries?
According to the KAVI mission statement (see below), “KAVI operates youth violence interventions programs in Central Brooklyn.”
How are they preventing violence when they are participating in @RepJeffries press conferences in which he calls for violence in the streets to oppose @realDonaldTrump’s agenda?
Seems like their 501c3 status should be revoked by the new Trump admin. And they should not be allowed to take up space in a public NYC hospital.
I will reporting KAVI to the IRS. @IRSnews. 501c3s are not allowed to mix partisan politics with their work. It’s a violation of their tax exempt status.
