Shutting down the Government is never a good idea, unless the point is to save our institutions and prevent mass firings. Then, it's a good idea.

UPDATE: Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-NY, said he plans to vote for a Republican bill to fund the government through September, paving the way for other Democrats to join him.

IT IS NOT A CLEAN C.R.!!!

I'm so tired of Democrats caving.

Every time I think there is a new low bar for politicians to cross, they find a way to fly past that baby.

You’re a fucking pussy Schumer!

Chuck, you own the destruction of our country as surely as the republicans do. Get out your maga hat. You just joined them.

Primary every one of these quislings.*

*Assuming we get the chance to vote again.

@schumer.senate.gov wants protest and town halls with democratic representatives again. Democratic voters thought they got the message but they need a reminder again @indivisible.org @50501movement.bsky.social

Contact him at a let him know

WTF is wrong with Schumer??

cmorebutt.bsky.social•16 days ago

Hey Chucky boy! Our only chance to deter the Republicans. You don't care about the American worker anymore. You have your pfucking nice salary, medical insurance, and pension. You're no better than a Fascist, Putin loving , Republican, Trump bitch.

I just faxed my senators with @resist.bot This is an all hands on deck moment! Even if you think you know how they will vite. A yes vote allows congress to give up their power of the purse. Flood Schumer's office. https://resist.bot/petitions/PPKENF

And if I'm being fair, it's really not even a good idea then. But.. it's really the only option.

I mean.....there are always the guillotines

Now that they've fired everyone, shutting down the government isn't that big a deal.

musicscott.bsky.social•17 days ago

It isn't shutting down the gov't, it is saving it. We are witnessing the absolute destruction of our country and whatever it takes to stop it has to be done.

Schumer is a coward.

He is no leader.

CHUCK FUNK!!! 🤬

cbwflg.bsky.social•17 days ago

You are a spineless coward @schumer.senate.gov !

cbwflg.bsky.social•17 days ago

To say I’m disappointed is an understatement….I am fucking PISSED!!!!! We needed democratic leadership to show some strength and defend our democracy and @schumer.senate.gov has failed BADLY! He rolled over and exposed his belly like a cowardly puppy…I had hoped for more.

cbwflg.bsky.social•17 days ago

I hope that @gallego.senate.gov and @captmarkkelly.bsky.social still vote NO so I can still at least have some pride in the Senators from AZ.

partoftheproblem.bsky.social•17 days ago

@schumer.senate.gov needs to go and I no longer care how. Resigned, recalled, plane fell out of the sky onto his head, doesn’t matter- we just need him gone.

tialderaed.bsky.social•16 days ago

No other Democrats should join him. He has become toxic to the party and the country.
He's no leader, he's just scared, old and balls-free.
Get him out of his speakership, give us a real leader and do it quickly.

thegriffindoor.bsky.social•17 days ago

Senate Democrats, chuck Chuck out of leadership. #NoConfidence

lre.bsky.social•17 days ago

Schumer needs to be recalled and replaced.

channelyourwarrior.bsky.social•17 days ago

@schumer.senate.gov thanks for being spineless and not upholding your oath. Democrats can’t seem to figure out that what is happening is not normal! It’s time to throat punch the GOP! Instead you roll over AGAIN! Congress is no longer needed, so both chambers can go home forever.

graybitch.bsky.social•17 days ago

People are gonna fucking die because federal safety net will be long fucking gone thanks to fucking Schumer, a doddering multimillionaire who has the spine and morals of a FUCKING HAGFISH.
