"Mr. President, allow me to reintroduce myself. I'm the House Democratic leader. Our caucus is 217 members strong. We serve in a separate and co-equal branch of government. We don't work for you. We work for the American people. We are fighting to lower the high cost of living. And to protect the healthcare of everyday Americans. And Mr. President, the next time you have something to say about me, don't cop out through a racist and fake AI video."
"House Democrats are here, on duty, fighting on behalf of the American people ready to fund the government in a way that lifts up their quality of life. House Democrats are on duty. House Republicans are on vacation. Shame on them for being on vacation all across the country and across the world on the eve of a government shutdown."
Rep. Hakeem Jeffries confronted an AI-generated video posted by President Trump that mocked him and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer by adding a moustache and sombrero. The video followed a White House meeting about an impending government shutdown. Jeffries characterized the clip as racist and fake and demanded that the president address him directly in the Oval Office rather than using manipulated media. Jeffries emphasized that House Democrats, a 217-member caucus, serve as a separate and co-equal branch working for the American people to lower living costs and protect healthcare. He accused House Republicans of being on vacation instead of preventing a shutdown.
