This is a shot across the bow of Senate Democrats- and good on her for saying it. Someone had to, one of my Senators voted for this and I couldn’t be more disgusted
This will not end well. God bless.
Corpo Dems are priests without a religion. Their gods are blessing their enemies, but these fossils still chant the same old prayers.
A schism that cuts these tumors out of the party is our only hope at slowing the fascist tide
Among the many things I really appreciate about AOC is how she’s willing to hold her own party’s feet to the fire. Something that feels exceedingly rare in this modern political climate.
We are witnessing a canon event for the creation of the Democratic Tea Party.
This is a warning to Senate Democrats, good for her for speaking up. One of my Senators voted for this, and I’m disgusted. This won’t end well. God bless.
This is extremely serious.
The generous interpretation for Schumer is that he was taking one for the team and shouldering the blame for a perceived difficult vote.
But even if he believed the merits of the substantive argument that a shutdown would be an objectively worse (ie. would give Trump full reign excuse to axe groups at will), a straight yes vote with zero demands on concessions, no filibuster, etc is an absolutely unacceptable outcome and indicative that he isn’t up to the job in a world where we need leaders that understand how to execute on a maximum pressure strategy.
It’s so incredibly frustrating. We did what we were supposed to, we called, we emailed, and we begged them not to give in. My Senators said they would vote no and they did. I can’t imagine that Shumer’s constituents in New York asked him to vote differently than we in Washington asked Murray and Cantwell. This old, bi-partisan playbook bullshit is dead. It was dead when Mitch McConnell wouldn’t allow Obama as President to nominate a Supreme Court justice. The GOP has done nothing but play to win power. We need to stop pretending that this isn’t open warfare on Democracy.
What exactly was it about and what is expected to happen now?
Literally, what are we supposed to do now?!
Primary them all!!!!
Burn Chuck-The-Cuck’s career.
Fuck you Dick Durbin from St. Clair County, Illinois.

Both of Schumer’s kids are lobbyists for Meta
Yep
PRIMARY time
When duly elected officials no longer carryout the will of the people what the hell are the people supposed to do?
What a bunch of ghouls
What happens next?! Asking for a friend
Both of Schumer’s kids are lobbyists for Meta
You better believe the sabotage is intentionalÂ
Their plan is really just to let Republicans fuck things up so much that they win next time.Â
Hope all these Senators get primaried.
She big mad. I’m ok with it.
They’re. All. Complicit.
So the US invading Panama? Schumer is such a fucking hideous disappointment.Â
Let me know the post-Democrat plan when y’all figure it out. seriously, fuck them
