Okay sure Trump made Stephen Miller his Chief of Staff and House Republicans just voted Jim Jordan the minority leader, so I'm really glad the Democrats probably will reelect Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries so the American people can't accuse them of partisanship.

@dnkboston The Democratic caucus votes for Speaker next week, on Wednesday I believe. The official vote of the whole House on Jan. 3 is just a formality.
Anyway, Jeffries will be Speaker. The Black Caucus endorses him, and honestly, the Black Caucus should get anything they effing want. The more important fight, which we *might* win, is to dump Schumer as Senate Majority Leader, which I think doesn't happen until January. (Anyone know?)
No earlier than Dec 1 by Senate Dem Caucus rules.
@msbellows I am not conceding to Jeffries until we get to January 3. Fuck that guy. And I know what the gossip is, but they also said we wouldn't do well in the midterms.
Nothing is done until it's done.
