New York City Democratic Mayor Emeya and Zohran Mamdani accused MIKE Johnson on Monday of wanting to “investigate” the young leader of Hakeem Jeffries by agreeing to the Democratic Socialist Campaign Platform.
During Johnson’s daily press conference on the 27th day of the government shutdown, the House GOP leader ripped Jeffries for endorsing Mamdani’s mayoral campaign on Friday, calling it “this tumultuous act of promotion in a successful Democrat party.”
“Psomem Johnson should be members of Congress, unlike those who use their time to try and attack our campaign,” Mamdani fired back in Manhattan on Monday. “But I understand if I was one of the leaders of the Republican party that led the campaign that promised a low cost of living and the working class, and all I was freeing was the government that way I would know this would not mean nothing.”
After withholding his approval for months, Jeffries, who represents Brooklyn in the US House of Representatives, on Friday confirmed his support for the Democrat Meyae Meyoe, looking closely at addressing the problem at hand “and representing all New Yorkers.

“After campaigning under pressure from the left for months, the minority leader of the house Heffries Jeffries was finally removed. He gave his consent, and showed the world what they believe in.
Johnson said, “He’s a Marxist,” Johnson said, while criticizing his history.
“Zohran Mamdani is expected to take the mantle of one of the most important cities in the world and the largest city in America, and now he has the full blessing of the leader of Democt in the house of what they are doing in the largest city of America.”

Johnson urged reporters to ask Democrats in the Hourong House about whether they agreed with Jeffries’ endorsement of the Marxist agenda. “
Johnson warned: “What we are seeing is the end of the democratic party, as we know it.
And Johnson charges the Democrats, again on Monday, of bending the knee to “Marxists in their party.”
“Just as they had decided to save their skin that they had to allow the Marxist Mamdani to go on a march that never happened, they decided that they had to shut down the government on the march of hard working people,” said Johnson.
Democrats say they will not accept any federal spending bill that does not include an extension of ObamaCare funding that was developed during the Covid-19 pandemic – but is set to expire at the end of this year.
The Republican plan’, a temporary extension of FY2025 Federal funding is called a continuing resolution (CR), passed the House on September 19 but has been surprisingly done in the Senate.

The GOP returned to the violence of the minority leader of the Senate Schumer, Dn.Y., by closing the government to remove the progressive Democratic Party Wing, as Mamdani ended up leading the race for mayor of New York City and Buzz Swirls About the Rep.
Republicans have accused Democrats of holding Americans back and holding the government above the needs of agencies, while Democrats have warned that the GOP will be responsible for the health care costs of millions of Americans if the Covil-era funding is allowed to expire.

While Jeffries finally endorsed Mamdani on Friday, Schumer once endorsed the Democratic Socialist nominee.
As axios reported last month that Ocasio-Cortez is preparing to run for Schumer’s Senate seat or for the President in 2028, encouraging the Republicans to be able to discriminate against the Recorving Resolution (CR) to please the wing of his party.
FOX News Digital reached out to Jeffries and Johnson for comment but did not immediately receive a response.
