If Democrats retake the House of Representatives this year, Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) will be next in line to the presidency after JD Vance. If that does not alarm you, consider this — via LifeZette:

Jeffries had one of the most bizarre press conference moments in recent political memory, declaring that the Supreme Court was now haunted by “ghosts of the Confederacy.”

What century is Jeffries living in? Not this one. Not the prior one. The Confederacy’s brief life ended in the mid-19th century.

Jeffries’ remarks came after the Supreme Court’s ruling in Louisiana v. Callins.

The decision allowed states in the South to redraw their congressional maps without being automatically accused of racial discrimination under the Voting Rights Act.

That is, Jeffries is enraged because Democrats can no longer gerrymander on an explicitly racial basis. As we are constantly reminded, anyone who does not endorse antiwhite racism is a racist. Similarly, anyone right of center is either Hitler or in league with the Confederate States of America.

It is now commonplace for Democrats to rev up their rhetoric to the highest pitch of unhinged lunacy. They are unconcerned with losing their credibility because it is already gone and not relevant anyway to the hebephrenic mob comprising their base.

🚨 JUST NOW: House Democrat Leader Hakeem Jeffries is completely unhinged, claiming the “ghost of the Confederacy” is haunting the Supreme Court and “invading” the entire nation!

Anyone doubt that Democrats will pack the Supreme Court with as many Ketanji Brown Jackson types as necessary to reduce it to a rubber stamp?
