KRUISER’S MORNING BRIEFING: Hakeem ‘Sombrero’ Jeffries Is Having a Rough Schumer Shutdown. “My theory about Jeffries is that Nancy Pelosi is really still in charge of the Dems over in the House, she just doesn’t want to go to as many meetings anymore. A woman who was as powerful as she was for so long doesn’t simply fade into the background. She’s pulling the strings, but Jeffries gets all of the camera time. That frees her up to spend extra quality time with her beloved Franzia.”
