Honestly wasn’t prepared for how lost and out of his depth Chuck Schumer is this interview. Doesn’t seem like he’s absorbed any new information since 2007. I don’t know who Senate Democrats’ best option is, but hard for me to imagine it’s this.

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House. We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication. They own what happens next.

I’m calling for new leadership in the Democratic Party. So many democrats want to do the right thing, but leadership is stopping them with the unspoken threat of refusing to give them leadership positions down the road. NEW DEM LEADERSHIP NOW!! #NewDemLeadership

I feel like a lot of people forgot that the whole purpose of gov is "I pay taxes, your protect us" not "I pay taxes, you play fucking games"

Getting rid of the American workers who take care of American veterans is wrong. Veterans will not take this sitting down - we can make this the newest example of Trump being forced to back down from a bad move.

Trump administration plans to cut 80,000 employees from Veterans Affairs, according to internal memo
The Department of Veterans Affairs is planning an “aggressive” reorganization that includes cutting 80,000 jobs from the sprawling agency.

It’s quite clear that Schumer and Jeffries have no control in the democratic caucus and the caucus has no faith in their leadership.

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges. This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

Elon illegally has non-governmental people accessing government computers. Journalists have identified these people. Elon says naming them is a "crime". Elon must be removed from government access, by force if necessary. Nobody is winning this fight with a protest sign. This is a different animal.

Elon Musk’s companies—Tesla and SpaceX—have received billions in government contracts and subsidies. Yet, this issue is largely ignored. Isn’t it time we started holding corporations accountable for the massive burden they place on taxpayers?

I say this with the upmost respect and clear mind #democrats. #trump does not give a shit about your lawsuits. He and his team are going to sit on it until it's time and he'll just flat out disregard it because he can. You need a different avenue and approach other than diplomacy and bureaucracy.

Trump is openly violating the law on a vast and unprecedented scale and everyone is acting like it's normal. NPR had a long story about finding a rare shrew. NYT said he was disregarding "legal niceties." This is an attack on the Constitution as profound as the attempt to overturn the 2020 election.
