View from the Left Coast:

Jeff, I suspect that some in NC don't know just how lucky they are to have you as a representative. I have no doubt you are going to do even greater things as AG there.

I want you to win your AG race. I ALSO want you to keep explaining Congressional activities to the rest of us. I hope both of these events are possible.

You know things in this state haven't been right since Jesse Helms rode in on Richard Nixon's coat tails. So it's time to turn things around. We've got to do something to get all these registered Democrats to stop voting for Republicans and return to the fold. YOU may be just to fellow to do it. Hang in there, we're with you!

Hi Jeff,

I noticed in the last update and this update you didn't name the person from the other party when they worked with you or helped you with your goals.

If we are to join together, we need to praise those that work with us and helped us, by name, regardless of party.

Hoping you acknowledge their impact and work directly in the future.

If they have an image to uphold to their right-wing constituents they may not want their name brandished online and linked to Jeff.

If they specifically ask Jeff not to mention their name openly, that is one thing. But otherwise, I agree with user "Matt S" about giving credit freely where it's deserved, regardless of the consequences.

Well, that's one way to pull the rug out from underneath any newly formed bipartisanship.

I think there is an unwritten code that they don’t name names but I researched who his counterpart would be and I think you can figure it out. I’d go back and figure it out again but I have 15 people coming for dinner tomorrow so….

The US is funding a genocide of the Palestinian people. Over 11,000 civilians, including 4,000 children have been killed by Israeli military in this genocidal campaign. You must call for a ceasefire now!

Ilhan Omar (D-MN) and Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) have every right to say what they like about Israel and the genocide of Palestinians as elected members of the US House of Representatives; they never took an oath to serve Israel . . .

I voted for Ron Desantis (R-FL) to be governor of Florida, not ambassador to Israel.

The recently ousted Speaker of the US House of Representatives, Congressman Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), who took at least a dozen votes to get elected speaker, traveled to Israel immediately upon his election, declaring to the Israeli Knesset that the USA is steadfastly committed to supporting Ukraine in their war against Russia . . .

Was he running for speaker of the Israeli Knesset too?

Following his ouster . . . McCarthy (R-CA) traveled abroad again, this time to England, and expressed his open contempt for the white Republicans who make up the majority of the GOP and praised Democrats for their diversity during a debate at Oxford in the wake of his ouster as House Speaker . . .

Is he now running for the Prime Minister of the U.K.?

Nevertheless, he is free to go on media tours bashing white people and lobbying for Israel, because he has now resigned from the US House of Representatives . . . I can only conclude that the collective RINO butthurt over former Speaker McCarthy is all about the Israelis who have hijacked the American deep state war machine.

It has become so painfully obvious, especially where you have someone like Nikki Haley wagging her finger and shouting down Vivek Ramaswamy in a presidential debate on live national television when the questions of this Ukrainian war against Russia and any mention of Israel are concerned, that the United States government has become a wholly owned subsidiary of the American Israeli Political Action Committee.

Thanks for your work in Congress, Jeff-- I wish you would fight to keep a seat there because that’s where we really need you; switch districts if necessary. We have another really good Dem candidate for Attorney General in Satana DeBerry and we need you in Congress

He can't. He just got redistricted and it is hopeless. He explained in an earlier email. Very sad. But i see how it would not work. Upsetting to say the least.

Every time I get the email notification for your updates, we all stop what we’re doing and I read it to everyone in the house. Thank you for keeping us so informed!

Have a great Thanksgiving Jeff and thanks for the non-ActBlue option. More Democrats need to do that so ActBlue will reassess their priorities.

Wishing you well in your campaign for AG but losing people like you, who actually want to work on issues, from the House is a setback for the country. Have a great Thanksgiving!

Curious why you describe the fact that Santos is going to be expelled as "bad news?" Genuinely asking--not criticizing. I absolutely adore you.
