WASHINGTON (AP) — House Democrats are preparing an ambitious 100-days agenda focused on delivering their campaign promises — making life more affordable and conducting vast oversight of the Trump administration — if the party seizes majority control in next month’s elections. Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries, who is in line to become House speaker if the party wins power, said the Democrats will be united “right out of the gate” on reinstating Affordable Care Act tax breaks, reversing Republican Medicaid cuts, holding votes against the Iran war and undoing President Donald Trump’s tariff regime. They expect to launch the agenda in the first 100 hours, once the new Congress is seated in January. “Fighting for an affordable America — that’s what unites Democrats all across the country,” Jeffries said recently at the party campaign headquarters in Washington |

Look, those 3 things are important and will probably have more direct affect on average citizens lives. However, unless this agenda involves punishing these fucking fascists we’re not going to solve any problems long term. At bare fucking minimum Hegseth needs to be removed. He's a fucking psycho and will order American civilians shot. |

Yeah, but their voting record tells us they won't do any of it. |

We have to force our leadership into accountability before we can reach affordability. |

Yup get ready for softball impeachment hearings for Trump, and round the clock news coverage of fake scandals platformed by our supposed allies. And that's the good outcome... |

Any mention of actually investigating the Epstein files? |

If they vote someone other than Jeffries, as I continue to voice to my representatives that they should, than...maybe. I don't see it happening though. |

As I’ve said before: MAGA wants to stand on the big chair and spit on everyone below them, while unleashing their wannabe-Nazi goons on anyone that so much as looks like they might complain about it it, while: The Democrats want nothing more than to just be seen sitting in it. We need to remove the chair. |

Not one. They’re in them as well. It’s why no one is doing shit about it. |

I think the genocide support cost them the last election. Not seeing a single effing word about that, but I do like these things. Hakeem has got to go, along with schumer. |

THAT'S what they call ambitious?! Ffs! The people wants M4A, not a return to supporting the corporate friendly "less awful than nothing" alternative!
No, Hakeem. Wanting a better and more representative Speaker than you is what unites Democrats all across the country, you pro corporate zionist piece of shit! 🖕🏼🤬🖕🏼 |

They'll waffle on anything substantial for a year and a half and only begin to try right before the next election. And then the scawy wepublicans will of course obstruct it and that'll be the reason we need to vote for the Democrats in 2028, so they can finally enact their nothing plan from 2026. Spoiler alert: they'll fail to do it after 2028 because of insert reused excuse here. |

Get a supermajority in the Senate, impeach him again, then have the rotating villain fail to convict. Repeat a few more times for good measure. Pass a few more bills to murder brown children at home and abroad. All in a day's work. |
