My friends that represent plus 30 districts, I'm sure that's all the calls they're getting. Right. And then that's where the messaging goes. But Hakeem Jeffries isn't going to become speaker through those hundred. He's going to become speaker through the 20.

And we were kind of spending a ton of money eating our own rather than fighting Republicans, right? And hold on. Republicans have gone through this, too.

Republicans went through this with the whole Tea Party movement. I mean, they removed, you know, Representative Cantor, if you recall, right, who was in leadership. OK, Eric Cantor. So they've gone through this as well. We're so frustrated because we're not in we have no power. OK, we have no branches of government. The rules of Congress in the minority don't give you power.
