I have not decided that Jeffries is corrupt

You haven't decided that the Pacific Ocean is large either.

I also find myself wondering about racism, whether that's at play here.

Fuck off with that bullshit. Jeffries is the hand picked protégé of Pelosi and in many ways is even more awful than her. His skin color and/or ethnicity has nothing to do with it.

republicans will now change their game

Bullshit. It's not like they were passing much even WITH majorities in both chambers. Their main function was to not stop their Mango Messiah from constantly breaking the law.

In that aspect, ineffective and corrupt leaders like Jeffries and Schumer who haven't ever met a fascist they don't yearn to give concessions are not that different from the current fascists doing the same nothing because they support the crimes.

Take down the democratic leadership?

No. Replace them with others who actually represent the needs and wants of the majority of their constituency rather than the majority of donation dollars.
