The House minority leader told CNN the mayor is going to have to patch things up with congressional Democrats following Tuesday's primary upsets.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) says New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is going to have to smooth things over with congressional Democrats after backing several progressive candidates who ousted incumbents during Tuesday’s primary elections.

Asked if Mamdani’s endorsements were making him “enemies” with Democrats in Washington, D.C., Jeffries told CNN that he and Mamdani “strongly” disagreed over his primary picks ahead of Election Day.

Now, according to Jeffries, the mayor has serious “work to do in terms of the conversations that he’s going to have with members of Congress moving forward.”

      It’s not irrelevant because I was correcting the incorrect information. Having correct information is important. That’s how disinformation spreads.

        It’s not disinformation, it’s discussing relevant details and not delineating every arcane requirement every single time we discuss if someone is eligible for president or any other question like that.

          Incorrect information is absolutely disinformation. Why are you so salty about this? Look, you made an insinuation about my comment that was incorrect. It happens, move on.

            Bro it’s not incorrect to cite only the relevant part of a law. It’s actually good practice and judges will chide you for bringing up irrelevant stuff, no matter how true those facts are.
