Hakeem Jeffries<\/a>, the Democrat Party\u2019s leader in the House of Representatives, protested on Sunday that he wants to avoid being \u201cdisagreeable\u201d with the GOP, but on the same show accused the GOP of an \u201cextreme MAGA Republican agenda.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jeffries, the House minority leader, appeared on NBC News\u2019 \u201cMeet The Press\u201d with host Chuck Todd. Todd opined that former Democrat House Speaker Nancy Pelosi \u201cdid not have a great relationship with Kevin McCarthy,\u201d adding, \u201cWhat\u2019s yours?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKevin McCarthy and I have had some positive, forward-looking conversations over the last few weeks,\u201d Jeffries began, before adding, \u201cClearly, we are going to have strong disagreements at times. But we can agree to disagree without being disagreeable. That is what I believe the American people would like to see in terms of a functional House, a functional Senate, a functional government.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But the call for comity only came after Jeffries referred to Republicans\u2019 \u201cextreme MAGA agenda,\u201d a characterization that suggested he does not plan to find common ground with the GOP.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur general concern is that the dysfunction that was historic that we saw this week is not at an end, it\u2019s just the beginning,\u201d Jeffries told Todd. \u201cAnd while the Congress was held captive this particular time, what is going to be a problem is if the American people will be held captive over the next two years to the extreme MAGA Republican agenda that apparently has been negotiated into the House rules and the functioning of the Congress.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s going to undermine the health, the safety, and the well-being of the American people, he declared. \u201cIt may undermine national security and a robust defense, and undermine our ability to actually advance an agenda that is anchored in kitchen table, pocketbook issues and not extremism.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jeffries\u2019 leftist rhetoric over the years has included saying of Kyle Rittenhouse, \u201cLock up Kyle Rittenhouse and throw away the key,\u201d prompting Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) to reply, \u201cIf this isn\u2019t proof that the Democrat Party has largely departed from American principles of neutrally applied justice and the right of self-defense, then I don\u2019t know what is.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In July 2021, Jeffries, who was named one of seven impeachment managers by Pelosi in the Senate impeachment trial of former President Trump, ripped Republicans for their efforts to restore election integrity across the nation while branding them as racists, tweeting, \u201cThe Civil War ended in 1865 and the racists lost. Get over it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Crenshaw fired back on Twitter with a blunt reminder of exactly which party had the history of racism, snapping, \u201cYou\u2019re right, the Democrats lost.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In February 2022, Jeffries attacked the legitimacy of the conservative members of the Supreme Court.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSupreme Court majority has zero legitimacy,\u201d he tweeted. \u201cGhosts of the confederacy are alive and well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/dailywire.com\/news\/breaking-dems-elect-hard-left-rep-hakeem-jeffries-to-succeed-pelosi-as-house-leader\/\">Dems Elect Hard-Left Rep.
