Oct 17, 2025 - Hakeem Jeffries Loses His Mind on Karoline Leavitt, Wonders if She’s “Demented”

watch:

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) went off on White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt while talking about political violence and recent controversies in connection with the Republican Party.

“We’ve already seen a rise in political violence and hatred in America, and then you’ve got swastikas apparently appearing in the offices of Republican members of Congress,” Jeffries told reporters on Capitol Hill. “You’ve got Young Republicans engaging in the most antisemitic and racist speech possible.”

Jeffries said Republicans “are ripping the sheets off” before turning his attention to President Trump’s press secretary.

“And then you’ve got Karoline Leavitt, who’s sick; she’s out of control,” Jeffries continued. “I’m not sure whether she’s just demented, ignorant, a stone-cold liar or all of the above. But the notion that an official White House spokesperson would say that the Democratic Party consists of terrorists, violent criminals and undocumented immigrants, that makes no sense.”
