Charlamagne tha God revealed his brutal nickname for House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) while detailing his gripes with him on Tuesday. Charlamagne and the rest of The Breakfast Club welcomed entertainers Claudia Jordan and Erica Cobb to the show, where the duo talked about their new podcast Accidentally Informed. While talking about their favorite guests, Jordan who's also a contributor for CNN revealed she enjoys political conversations and spoke fondly of her talk with Jeffries. That's when host DJ Envy revealed that Charlamagne hates the minority leader: JORDAN: You do? CHARLAMAGNE: I don't hate him. I just don't think he stands for anything. I call him AIPAC Shakur.
JORDAN: Well, definitely we did talk about messaging, and I actually went to the Capitol and had a meeting with him. And we talked about messaging how I was like, the frustration of the party is y'all have to get more gangster. Like, stop going by the politics of the late 2000s, in 2010, and you have to rise to the occasion in the messaging. And he did. I saw him do more afterwards. CHARLAMAGNE: Hakeem is a puppet. Hakeem isn't doing anything if Chuck Schumer doesn't tell him to do it. And it's simple as that.
