We’ve repeatedly witnessed them on cable news, attempting to discern their missteps—was it merely “the messaging?” Additionally, there’s been a public dispute between DNC Vice Chair David Hogg and the Democratic National Committee, with Hogg advocating for incumbent challenges, contrary to the committee’s traditional purpose. Concurrently, numerous books have been published, finally revealing the reality of Joe Biden’s tenure: he was mentally unfit for much of his term.

Recently, a former aide to California Representative Nancy Pelosi and former Vice President Kamala Harris has taken to the media to criticize House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) for failing to effectively oppose their adversary, Donald Trump:

Ashley Etienne, who served as communications director for both former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and former Vice President Kamala Harris, criticized House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries’ leadership of the Democratic Caucus during a podcast episode released Thursday.

Etienne, who ran the former speaker’s anti-Trump war room, blasted Pelosi’s successor as House Democratic leader over his alleged lack of coordination and organization, during an appearance on Politico’s Playbook Deep Dive podcast. Etienne, citing conversations with Democratic House lawmakers, portrayed Jeffries as indecisive and too weak in opposition to President Donald Trump.

I would guess that former Pelosi adviser Ashley Etienne got the “go-ahead” from her former boss to make this savage statement about Leader Jefferies. Pelosi clearly not a fan of Jefferies.
