House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (R-NY) said on Thursday that Republicans were wasting money by targeting two House seats held by vulnerable Democrats in the state of New York.
asserted
Republicans → say → York
“Republicans are desperately spending money in places all across the country, including in Long Island, in a fruitless effort to try and defeat Democratic incumbents while at the same time leaving Republican held seats increasingly vulnerable, including in the north country of New York state,” Jeffries said at a press conference.

advisers → tie → Balkans
“The mismanagement we are seeing unfold on the other side of the aisle, specifically as it related to MAGA Inc., perhaps should no longer surprise since give the fact that Donald Trump’s top political operatives seem more concerned with enriching themselves based on recent revelations and campaigning in Eastern Europe, as opposed to actually doing what they were at least hired to do which is try to hold off massive Democratic victories, which are coming on Nov. 3,” Jeffries said.
asserted
Jeffries → see → Nov.
Democratic super PACs are not currently spending in Gillen’s or Suozzi’s districts, a sign they believe their incumbents are well positioned to win in November.

asserted
that → serve → office
“For too long, New York families have been left behind by corrupt, partisan hacks Tom Suozzi and Laura Gillen,” NRCC spokeswoman Maureen O’Toole told the Washington Examiner.
asserted

“Instead of fighting for Long Islanders, Suozzi and Gillen have fought to raise taxes, put illegal immigrants ahead of their own constituents, and bow down to radical Kathy Hochul, who is driving New York into the ground.
asserted
who → fight → ground
Suozzi and Gillen have shown voters they aren’t representatives; they’re sell-outs, and Long Islanders have had enough.
asserted
Islanders → show → enough
