Jeffries brags about Dem obstruction against Trump as he defends Kushner meeting

The congressman said he "took it to discuss the affordability crisis that exists that is not a hoax."

"No one is going to get a pass. We're gonna hold every single member of the Trump cartel accountable beginning on day one," he said.

Jeffries also touted House Democrats' efforts to fight the Trump administration.

"We're gonna follow the facts, apply the law, and be guided by the Constitution, beginning on day one, and hold the crooks accountable. And that's what we've done as House Democrats from the beginning of this Congress," he said, listing battles against the Trump administration regarding "tariffs," "Medicaid," "Epstein," "nutritional assistance," Obamacare, the Iran war, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) funding and "unprecedented corruption unleashed on the American people."
