My latest. Let me know if you agree.
Senator Schumer reflects the weakness & complicity of Democratic leaders by agreeing to vote for the Republican spending bill. It's time for new blood that is willing to stand up and fight.

Democrats need new leadership
Democrats need a bold leader, not a feckless one.
Even the so-called "best ones" among them seem to think they only have 2 options:
acquiesce and seize glory, or oppose and be destroyed.
Don't be surprised when they join the fray while gleefully lying about their intentions.
VOTE NO OR RESIGN !!!
Reminder you posted,
“An unelected shadow government is conducting a hostile takeover of the federal government.”

Republicans want the shutdown

I do not believe Schumer has the strength or flexibility to protect our nation from Trump.

I regard the Democratic Party as dead as long as Schumer remains.
I mean, today, who is the organized opposition to Trumpism? It is certainly not the Democratic Party.

Schumer is an old, white man who doesn't want to lose power. He's made millions off the stock market in NY and doesn't care about the people.
It's because he's old though and I don't mean to be ageist but old people love repubs and Trump. D or R doesn't matter.
It's been betrayal after repeated betrayal for decades; the neoliberal selling out of workers under Clinton and continuing to do so ever since, the flirting with right-wing social policies, the active sandbagging the bench of younger leaders, and now this.
No pressure 🙃
There are only a few of them that have backbones
Schumer is not one of them
He is a spineless worm

The Dems must rise to the occasion. If they don’t, this is as much on them as the MAGA GOP
Look at non-voting numbers. Dems have lost the youth vote which is the future--
neo-liberal, clinton brand politics have no place there.
Dems need inspiration, not history lessons. I blame Sen. Harry Reid for SCOTUS. But that’s history.
There are several alternatives, Ghost is one that has a flat fee structure, so you can actually keep more as you grow.
Please consider getting off substack.
piece. We die slowly/quietly or we rip the bandaid off and start fighting that now.
is not a viable path forward. He needs to resign now. He wants this over and done with on Friday so he can book tour.
Bring on Alexandria Ocasio- Cortez, Jasmine Crockett and all the others who speak to the truth, and not to archaic rules
This isn't over.
They are not the right people for the moment.
