DEMS - We will protect you from your own party if you agree to work with us.
McCarthy - No.
DEMS - Ok, well we'll protect you anyways.

Is a democrat who votes for a republican who refuses to work with democrats even really a democrat?  As long as entire political parties are crossing the aisle, why not expect reasonable republicans to vote for Hakeem Jefferies?  I don't know much about the guy outside of this McCarthy stuff, maybe Jefferies is totally nuts and ultra left wing.

So once again Democrats tried to bribe McCarthy to give them votes. I see they are following the Biden family's history.
