Extraordinary moment — Nancy Pelosi issues a statement calling on Democratic senators to reject the House funding bill, i.e. to defy Chuck Schumer. "Democratic senators should listen to the women," she says, referring to Murray/DeLauro who want a 1-month stopgap bill instead.

📌BREAKING: Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer just announced that he plans to vote to advance a government funding bill, which is a green light for Musk/Trump to continue terrorizing Americans. 📌I am calling for him to step down immediately. He is no damn leader.

Schumer backs away from shutdown, says hell vote to advance GOP bill
The Senate minority leader spoke as more than a dozen colleagues came out against the House-passed stopgap.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer privately told fellow Democrats during a closed-door lunch Thursday that he would help advance a House GOP funding bill
- a strong indication that Senate Democrats will ultimately back down from forcing a government shutdown on Saturday.
Schumer's closed-door comments, confirmed by two people granted anonymity to disclose his private remarks, comes amid days of Democratic agonizing about the possible shutdown. Their dilemma was forced by the House's approval Tuesday of a funding patch through September, one that was written without Democratic input.

@schumer.senate.gov If you vote for cloture you are a stain on this country’s history that will never go away. You are willingly passing power to a tyrant in waiting, and you are a disgrace to every oath of office any senator has ever sworn. Your legacy will be one of cowardice and contempt.

🚨🚨🚨🚨 Not a SINGLE Democratic senator should vote for the Republican spending bill. Doing so would simply further embolden and empower Trump in his effort to destroy our government and the vital services it provides. STAND YOUR GROUND AND FIGHT — LIKE HOUSE DEMOCRATS DID!! 🚨🚨🚨🚨
