Such a weird one today, that Trump $  250 bill. What did you make of it, sir?  LEADER JEFFRIES: It&#8217;s Monopoly money. It&#8217;s fantasy. And we are going to do everything possible to make sure that this never happens. I mean, this is the most ridiculous thing in the world. How sycophantic are Republicans when this is what they&#8217;re focused on, as opposed to actually doing the type of things to address the damage that they&#8217;ve done to the American people? We have a reckless and costly war of choice that has dramatically increased the cost of living on the American people, particularly as it relates to gas prices. They&#8217;re ripping nutritional assistance away from the American people. The economy is in shambles. The Republicans have been a failure. They said they were going to lower costs on Day One. Costs haven&#8217;t gone down. They&#8217;ve gone up. And yet they&#8217;re focused on a 250 make believe bill for Donald Trump? I mean, you couldn&#8217;t make this up if you were a Hollywood screenwriter. Unfortunately, this is a reality that we&#8217;re living and we&#8217;re going to end this national nightmare sooner rather than later.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.realclearpolitics.com\/video\/2026\/05\/29\/hakeem_jeffries_250_bill_featuring_president_trump_would_be_monopoly_money.html\">RealClearPolitics Videos<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries was a guest on Julie Mason&#8217;s SiriusXM show, where she asked him about today&#8217;s news regarding a potential $ 250 bill featuring President Trump: HOST JULIE MASON: And final question.
