Quite the back-and-forth going on here between Lawler and Jeffries in this @allymutnick piece ⬇️
LAWLER VS. JEFFRIES:
The New Yorkers' feud has been simmering since Lawler’s 2022 election. It reached a new level of vitriol during last year’s government shutdown.
As Election Day nears, both are continuing to trade jabs.

“We asked Emmer what he would do differently during the 119th Congress if he had another chance. Emmer said Republicans should’ve made the case about why they deserve another two years in the majority ‘much earlier.’”
More from @JakeSherman ⬇️
Amid all the Republican leadership tumult, one person seems unusually safe: House Majority Whip Tom Emmer.
Over the summer, Emmer said he would run for GOP whip no matter what happens in November.
@JakeSherman spoke with Emmer in Nashville: punchbowl.news/article/washi…
