Protesters interrupt Hakeem Jeffries at Dems’ ‘What’s Next’ conference
NewsNation reports that protesters criticizing U.S. military support for Israel interrupted House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries at least three times at the Democrats' 'What's Next' conference in Denver, shouting 'stop genocide' and calling for an arms embargo as the crowd booed and officials escorted them out. The conference features prominent Democrats including Pete Buttigieg, Cory Booker, and Josh Shapiro, and the page also reports Senator Chris Van Hollen's challenge to Chuck Schumer for Senate majority leader, with Jeffries likely to become Speaker in January 2027 after the midterms.
