I don't think the Democrats are weak or afraid - THEY ARE COMPLICIT. All the wealthy politicians are on board

democrats4good.bsky.social•3 days ago

Called his office. Can't leave a voicemail. So, this letter was just sent to his Chief of Staff.

yesak.bsky.social•3 days ago

I tried to call as well. What’s with the no voicemail thing??? @schumer.senate.gov our federally employed family has a hell of a lot more to lose than you do, & we still would vote no. I’ve called my senators & voiced my support for this. Do not be compliant & then say it’s for families like mine!

momoprops.bsky.social•3 days ago

I’m gonna do the same.
What’s his email.
This is bad.

Thank you!
I don’t understand why our Dem Millionaire Donors aren’t public calling them out and threatening to withhold their donations now like they did with Biden.
Where are THEY now?!?
We are sinking!
This is hopeless.

democrats4good.bsky.social•3 days ago

Hear you. Hoping he'll have enough feedback in the coming hours that it will cause him to reconsider.

momoprops.bsky.social•2 days ago

Schumer says shut down gives Trump total control during that period of time with no oversight and we would have no legal recourse.
They could fire the entire civil service and there would be nothing that we could do about it.
Also the only person that can call us back from the shut down is Trump.

sunnydazehaze.bsky.social•3 days ago

It’s tired. Too many elderly in Congress. Their history was easy peasy compared to what Trump is doing. It’s like they’ve been affected by “future shock”. Dictionary

No one picks up and you can't leave a message. That sums up this bullshit pretty well.

I've tried to call, it's not possible to leave a message at his DC or NYC offices.

Has proven time-and-time-again he is not a leader; not a deal maker; not a fighter. He has to go.

What is wrong with him??? He and Jeffries both need to step down. They’re both weak but Schumer takes the cake.

schatzkin.bsky.social•3 days ago

Awful. Eve worse than Biden. And I was enraged by Biden’s hubris in running again until it was too late.

stonemania.bsky.social•3 days ago

He is not doing his job. He likes to talk tough but is too scared to take a punch.

NY people need to flood his office with calls now and stop this shit ..it's enabling an abuser..stop it.

jenmazz.bsky.social•3 days ago

I'm confused. What does he mean by "cede too much power to Trump and Musk" ? I thought that was the reason AGAINST the bill?

kicatu52.bsky.social•3 days ago

@kirstengillibrand2.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov If you vote for this, you are enabling Reps to work outside of the framework of bipartisanship. I for one will be leaving the Democratic party if this BS continues. Reps are already closing the govt with every EO thats slipped in by the Felon.

teddithomp.bsky.social•3 days ago

I tried calling their offices and you can’t leave a message after hours. How convenient. Here’s my message Chuck, VOTE NO you spineless POS. Time for you to step down you are a pathetic worthless disgrace.

banana42boat.bsky.social•3 days ago

Sigh

ediblepetals.bsky.social•3 days ago

If you call his office, you’ll find he hasn’t changed his voicemail message since December 22, 2024. Would you like to email him? It might not work the first couple of times, but eventually the “submit” button takes you to another page. You will not receive any emails acknowledging your message

ofmarin.bsky.social•3 days ago

Donors need to stop supporting him.

browncs.bsky.social•2 days ago

Is it possible, if the govt shuts down, that the Republicans will refuse to ever bring another funding bill to the floor, essentially, shutting down the govt indefinitely giving Trump his executive powers unchecked? Does passing the CR give the Dems some control? And keep court cases going?

toedrifter.bsky.social•2 days ago

Trump did not run on shutting down the government. He will lose all popular support. Shutdowns have been unpopular for Republicans every time. And if they do shut it down forever, then that was something they were going to try regardless, so it shouldn't guide democratic thinking.

browncs.bsky.social•2 days ago

I agree that Trump will lose support but I don't think he cares about that now. I think he is following his agenda. BUT if the Dems give up control by alllowing a shut down, there is no way to regain any control at all - including the courts. At least if the govt is open, cases proceed, right?

toedrifter.bsky.social•2 days ago

He cares deeply what Fox News says about him. When the stock market continues tanking during a shutdown he will cave.

gertruxe.bsky.social•3 days ago

Any vote that advances this budget is a vote for DOGE, a vote for tariffs, a vote against veterans, against Medicaid, social security, and education. Resist. Slow them down. Make them blink.

bluesky.taupehat.com•3 days ago

It's as if he doesn't hear the criticism of the party's direction coming up from the people who vote to keep Democrats in office. Or he hears it and doesn't care, not sure which would be worse.

Total disgrace. He should resign. This is not what anyone in his party want. What is he even doing right now? This makes no sense. We need all new leadership. This is too far. He’s really misjudged where people are.

joshuafaile.bsky.social•3 days ago

The true world class political talent the current Democratic leadership have is never failing to find an opportunity to tragically miscalculate the outcome of their actions.

At least we know now—without a shadow of a doubt—that we, the people, are on our own.

We have to stop the fascist regime.
