“We’re going to fight it in the streets.”
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) made a disturbing statement on Friday that seemed to call for an insurrection against Trump, just months after the 47th president was nearly assassinated.
As The Hill reported, Jeffries and Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) Chairwoman Yvette D. Clarke (D-N.Y.) held a press conference Friday morning, following President Trump’s remarks on the tragic plane crash at Ronald Reagan National Airport near Washington and his signing of an Executive Order to investigate Joe Biden’s Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) policies.
As expected, Jeffries and the CBC smeared Trump as a bigot instead of offering any real analysis, calling his remarks a ‘truly disgusting and disgraceful display of racist political prognostication.’
During his own rant against Trump, Jeffries made what many would consider a threat—one that would likely prompt an FBI visit if a Republican had said it.
“We’re going to fight it (Trump’s agenda) legislatively, we’re going to fight it the courts,” Jeffries stated. “And we’re going to fight it in the streets.”
Jeffries’s remarks should not only bring to mind the two assassins who tried to take out Trump last year but also the George Floyd riots of 2020 during the so-called ‘Summer of Love.’

This attitude from the left is exactly what Jeffries wants to bring back, and God help our country if they take his words literally.
