For some, a new moniker for Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) may feel like poetic justice — especially if it catches on.
Popular radio host Charlamagne tha God revealed on the “Breakfast Club” Tuesday that he has a brutal nickname he likes to use for the House minority leader.
“I call him ‘AIPAC Shakur,’” Charlamagne said.
The nickname is a clever play on the name of late rapper Tupac Shakur and Jeffries’ longstanding support for the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, Washington’s most powerful pro-Israel group.
Charlamagne busted out his epithet when his guest, TV and radio personality Claudia Jordan, proclaimed herself to be a “politics nerd” on his show and said that she really enjoyed interviewing Jeffries on her own podcast, “Accidentally Informed.”
