House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries appeared on ABC News over the weekend and openly defied the recently announced strategy of DNC vice chair David Hogg, who is planning to primary members of his own party.
This is the second time in a week that Hogg has been called out by a high level Democrat. Dem strategist James Carville called David Hogg ‘a contemptible little twerp’ during a recent appearance on NewsNation.
The DNC made a huge mistake in appointing Hogg as vice chair. He is an activist. He has zero experience in getting people elected to office.

Dem Jeffries brushes aside DNC big David Hogg’s primary plan, vows to stand by incumbents
Dem House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries on Sunday rejected a Democratic National Committee big’s controversial plan to fund primary challenges against passive party members in safe districts.
Jeffries of New York instead touted his intent to back all House Democratic incumbents across the country in the 2026 cycle and push the party to focus on knocking off Republicans.
“I look forward to standing behind every single Democratic incumbent, from the most progressive to the most centrist and all points in between,” Jeffries told ABC News’ “This Week” when asked about the opposing stance by Democratic National Committee Vice Chairman David Hogg.
“They’re working hard in their communities, rising to the occasion,” Jeffries said of Dem incumbents.
Last week, Hogg, who has been serving as one of three DNC vice chairs since February, announced that his organization, “Leaders We Deserve,” will pump out $20 million to challenge low-key House Dem incumbents in favor of more combative contenders.

Democrats are completely divided. Not only do they have no leader and no message, they can’t even get on the same page for a strategy.
