He was on one of the MSNBC shows last night-maybe Chris Hayes. Hayes asked about this. Schumer insisted that shutting down the government would allow Trump & Musk to gut it all & prevent employees from returning. He claimed the CR would be far less devastating. Hayes didn't seem to buy it, though.
I managed to get through to chucks NY office. I would love to see the numbers of the amount of calls that are flooding the switchboard today. I've managed to call 4 before I hit the wall of not being able to get through on their direct lines. Keep at it folks. It's working!
There was at least one Senator, who is a NO, who posted that the phone lines are being overwhelmed & people are getting disconnected ... this might be the case for others.
Since he's a NO, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt.
@aoc.bsky.social please announce your primary of @schumer.senate.gov tonight. The nation stands with you. You are a beacon of light that leads in the darkness. We need you Alex!!! 💙💜💙
We gotta remove the enemies within before we can move on to Krasnov. Get rid of the cowardly Dems like Schumer who are actively aiding a fascist regime.
@schumer.senate.gov This is your legacy. Lacking any leadership for the American people, for your Party & your constituents. When the majority of your party is a clear NO on the CR, so you're going to capitulate to the fascist? Who is this helping? The Govt has already been shutdown by Musk & T.
American memory isn't good. We forget the wrongs and keep reflecting the same people who work against us. Remember this moment. Remember every Democrat who votes to confirm an official planning to cut an agency. Remember every Democrat who votes the blank check to President Musk. Vote them out!

Too bad Schu didn't think so

@schumer.senate.gov needs to be removed; he is unfit & not reading the room.
Call your Senators; ask them to vote NO & also ask them to call for a meeting of the Conference to vote on who shall replace Schumer.
Also, a lot of Ds are derelict of duty rn by not answering phones or having staffers immediately hang up when answering.
Senator websites have email & often multiple office numbers, outside of DC listed.
CALL THEM ALL.
Speak to staffers!
Since he's a NO, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt.
Any maybes or yes' ehh, not so much.
I'm confident I got hung up on
not out of the country in foreign land's
the anger of rebellion is spreading like fire
(poetry - from nonya)
Or were you just blowing smoke so you could roll over like always? Sounds more likely. VOTE NO
Nothing
