House Democrats are officially led by Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY), who succeeded Nancy Pelosi as House Minority Leader. But based on recent events, one could reasonably ask whether he’s actually steering the ship—or just along for the ride.

This week offered a telling example. Following President Trump’s decisive airstrikes on Iran’s nuclear infrastructure—an operation praised by U.S., Israeli, and even U.N. officials—some House Democrats predictably jumped to cry “illegal war” and launched yet another doomed impeachment effort.
The ringleader? Rep. Al Green (D-TX), known more for his grandstanding than legislative strategy. Green’s resolution didn’t even make it to debate before being shelved with overwhelming bipartisan opposition.

The final vote? 344–79 to table the resolution. In plain terms: even most Democrats didn’t want anything to do with it.
Among those rejecting the motion were the top three House Democratic leaders:
- Hakeem Jeffries, Minority Leader
- Katherine Clark (D-MA), Minority Whip
- Pete Aguilar (D-CA), Caucus Chair
Their votes show that party leadership didn’t support the impeachment push. But here’s the catch: if Jeffries were truly commanding respect and coordination within his caucus, this resolution never would have reached the floor. Green’s stunt not only backfired but also exposed the fractures within the Democratic ranks—again.
And while many progressives tried to keep their hands clean publicly, the broader talking points were clear: accusations of illegality, comparisons to “unauthorized wars,” and questions about whether Trump had the authority to act militarily.
