Box 10307 New Orleans, LA 70181 (504) 888-8255 COMMENTARY OF THE DAY By Robert Namer Voice Of America info@webnetinfo.com &copy;2026 All rights reserved May 27, 2026 House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries clarified on Sunday that impeaching President Donald Trump would not be a primary objective for Democrats should they regain control of the House this November. It a big lie . During an appearance on Fox News , Jeffries responded with a definitive “of course not” when moderator Shannon Bream questioned whether impeachment proceedings would sit at the top of the party’s legislative agenda. “I’ve made clear from the very beginning that our top priority is going to be to drive down the high cost of living,” Jeffries (D-N.Y.) added. “We believe in this country, you work hard, you play by the rules. You should be able to live an affordable life, a comfortable life, in fact, to live the good life, and that means a good paying job and good housing, good health care, good education for your children, and when it’s all said and done, a good retirement,” he added. Although the president reportedly suggested to House Republicans in January that his impeachment would be a certainty if the GOP lost the midterms, Democratic calls for his removal have notably quieted following the realization that they currently lack the necessary votes. This shift toward caution is not entirely uniform across the party, however, as internal divisions persist despite Jeffries’ recent efforts to pivot the focus elsewhere. Regarding the potential impeachment, Gregory Meeks (D-N.Y.) added “to do those things, you have to have the votes. And when I see that we have Republicans who won’t even have hearings in regard to oversight, so there’s no oversight by Republicans, and they control the House, they control the Senate, they have the presidency,” during a previous appearance on CNN. “So realistically, I don’t have the time, I’m worried about the country, the country’s economy, the American people, and that’s where my efforts are going to be moving forward,” he added in comments that align with Jeffries’s comments.
