I remember when Schumer refused to bring the Military Justice Improvement Act to the floor. It had 66 yes votes. I never got an answer as to why. They ended up watering it down and folding it into the NDAA.

There are plenty of wolves in sheep's clothing. Schumer has been hurting Democrats for a long time and now he's off to peddle his anti-Gaza book. Pro Trump and Netanyahu is anti-American.
But you'd think as the top law school they'd be more selective in who they accept. The way he walks and talks makes me highly suspicious that someone took the LSAT for him.
This is the exact kind of BS I am absolutely fed up with 😤 This is why the democrats are not doin well in elections, bc so many of us are SICK of our party ignoring what the PEOPLE want & caving to the lobbyists & watering our shit down.
Schumer is a POS at this point. Whether he is getting money from the GOP, he doesn't care, or another reason. It doesn't matter, the effect is the same. He is more harm than good. New York at the very least you need to elect someone other than him. At best someone should make him step down.
We can’t depend on them.
Learn from history, today is the ides of March - they’ll all stab each other in the back but we can’t wait for that to happen, they’ll tear it all down with them
This is an example of the dicks that have had this power for too long. These dicks need to out man each other~refusing to actually protect/help the women like you that have dealt with dicks assault while serving in the military. Ladies we must take over to clean up this mess! I have your backs!😽💙
He is only in Congress to protect Israel's interests, that is the conclusion I've come to. He was all in on the anti-BDS bill (no protesting Israel) even co-sponsored it. (This bill violates the 1st A, btw), but will not help our own servicemembers.
This is why I think he voted for cloture.
It feels as if the older leadership is terrified to be called anti (fill in the blank). Anti soldier, anti cop, anti first responders? Why does this cower them so much?
It’s become clear that we’ve been misguided in putting all of our eggs/energy in one basket. We need to focus some energy on gutting the Democratic Party of people like Schumer who fight for Wall Street and start with fresh leadership like AOC, who fights for us. Otherwise, no change.
@schumer.senate.gov is a sellout! He got something out of siding with the GOP. He’s got a book tour coming up, make sure you stop by and let him know he’s a sellout!
Force him out! If you’re pissed about Sen. Chuck Schumer caving to Trump and Elon Musk, take the pledge to boycott contributions to all Senate Democrats until they replace him as leader: https://chng.it/mZgjGv9rS9
Haha I’m with you for sure. I’ve already stopped donating after the cracks started showing already after Trump was elected again.
I’m not interested in supporting the next election bs. I want things solved TODAY, and I’m not interested in feeding into an obviously broken system.
I think the Schumers of the party are the oligarchs’ true source of strength and defeating them is the true battle. The GOP is crazy and stupid and easily defeated but the centrists won’t go down easy. They are the ones with the IQ and the EQ to both run the country and control the working class.
I wrote to the DNC yesterday and told them they won't be getting my time or funds, nor will any members of Chuck & the Cowards, but their primary opponents will.
Democrats have the donor taint too. We should promote candidates who don’t take corporate donations, like AOC and (my Rep) Josh Riley (who seems to have straightened up after wrong early votes).
I saw a post about him wanting to give in to Repubs and they abortion shenanigans from another female rep… I guess Schumer hates women? Come on Nancy make him step down
I will note that gillebrand, in a lame effort to curry attention imo, tossed a wrench into military justice, yet had absolutely no idea what she was doing. So, that should say a lot about members of “the ten”.
Any current member of Congress in NY who primaries Schumer and doesn't win and holds their seat will get assigned to zero committees, locked out of any leadership roles and get a severe fanny spanking from both sides of Congress. Here endth the lesson.
MAGA auxiliary.
The Washington Generals.
What the establishment Dems sell to their large donors is failure and fecklessness. Schumer and Durbin are crafting their next surrender by committing to fucking off and having no strategy whatsoever.
That's like saying grow your own garden but don't use any water.
ActBlue is THE fundraising platform for Democrats. It asks the questions for compliance with federal and state fundraising laws. How are you going to donate to candidates if you are not using ActBlue?
Schumer and pelosi have failed us. Their complicit actions to the republicans have helped create this situation. Time for AOC to take over. Or walz. Or someone who actually cares about democrats. Because it’s not what we have right now.
#SelloutSchumer has been private equity’s bitch for decades. If it cost Wall St Schumer will block, divert, water down or simply ignore it. He’s why democrats are private equity’s political hedge fund & he’s profited greatly from their “arrangement” 🤬
💙🇺🇦🇲🇽🇨🇦💙
DNC chair is asking for feedback from democrats on the direction of the party. In 3 weeks only 25k responses. We can do so much better than that. Contact page below. Let's tell them it is out with the old guard and start elevating the fighters or step aside. GO!!!!
Those whose hearts are so cold and hard as to support and fund genocide do not care for ordinary people or their needs. They care about wealthy "donors" and power, period. That's why they always side with/cave to fascists. Schumer cannot be trusted ever. He's an enthusiastic genocide supporter.
If we could get rid of the Okie Dokes that try to compromise with fascists thinking that they'll get something out of it we might be able to make real change some day.
You have every right to think this way. I stand by exactly how I stated my post. 🦋 Not because he is Jewish. Most people who are antisemitic need to know that fact.
Did not know that. For clarity please: he doesn’t care about woman in the military being raped?Did not bring it to the floor or a vote? Who are we dealing with?
Because he has made a career out of letting Republicans do awful things unchallenged and then fundraising off that. It is the strategy that results in small midterm gains, leadership roles for him, catastrophic losses when it counts, and pain for anyone caught up in those failures.
Schumer, needs to go! He caved to CYA with Trump's regime! Now is the time to stand up and fight for the American people! Gilibrand, needed to go years ago when she outed Frankin! Fetterman, needs to go as well! I'm so disappointed in the ones who voted for this toxic budget!
We found out yesterday Schumer is a shill. He was never ever in public service to serve, he was in it for the Book! I hope AOC primaries and beats his sorry, scrawny old ass to wherever the sun doesn’t shine.
Oh, his legacy is circling the drain now. This was despicable, but sort of was mirrored by his conduct with the spending bill! I don't know what he's scared about, but he is IMHO 😡
Politicians live in an alternate reality where instead of gravity, money keeps things together. Sometimes that reality intersects with ours, where the 99% have only gravity as a given.
When the words and actions don’t match, the truth is in the action.

When Schmuck Schumer was the Majority Leader, he sat there the whole time 🍆💦💦💦 and after 2 years, had only a marginal college loan forgiveness program to show for it.
Meanwhile, Putin was planning the demise of Democracy that he would implement to get US where we are today.
Dem Senators could replace him, or maybe more realistically talk him into stepping down. I think they are too frightened to, though, unless enough of us refuse to donate until he's replaced.
They absolutely could, but they won’t unless they’re forced. If donors threaten to cut them off, that might push them to act, but Dems have a habit of clinging to “decorum” even when it’s killing them. They need to realize that playing nice won’t save them—or democracy.
@schumer.senate.gov is NOT a true Democrat, he is a Republican who has been blue washing his "accomplishments" while selling tickets to his self-aggrandizing book.
Email, call, and write this bastard (no, I won't apologize ever, unlike Chuck) and offer him no rest
if congress is given the purse by the people/constitution, it does not necessarily mean it can just give it to the executive branch. if those people don't want the responsibility they should resign, not give away what was given to congress; signed-they're-slaves kind of thing
Be sure to call the No Voters, as well as your House representative, thank them for their leadership and courage, and ask that they move to remove Chuck and replace him with a wartime leader needed for these times. I'd recommend @captmarkkelly.bsky.social or @duckworth.senate.gov
Both minority leaders from the Senate (@schumer.senate.gov) & the House of Rep. (@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social) need to be REMOVED as quickly as possible. We need fighters. Not these weak-kneed sheep!
Schumer in toughest fight of Senate leadership career, 18-Mar-‘25
Here's the biggest difference between Dem's and Republicans, Dem voters & elected will speak truth to power even when it's their own party, the Republicans pretty much just toe the party line.
You are correct. My bad. Both of Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer’s daughters work for the tech giants: Alison Schumer works as a privacy and politics product marketing manager at Facebook parent company Meta, while Jessica Schumer is a registered lobbyist for Amazon in New York state.
That was something with colleges, I think. Will look up.
My feeling is the right always hated FDR and sought to begin the dismantling process asap! Seems the last 20 years the media has really bowed to the 'greatness' of Reagan and held up the DOW like a holy symbol.
I know. I don’t see a way where we will ever be able to get rid of that, as both parties are having their pockets lined. That genie will never go back in the bottle, I fear. 😫

There is decades of controversy with Al Jazeera reporting. Many countries have banned their news because they push terrorism and extremism for their agenda. Even the Palestinian Authority has banned Al Jazeera https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al_Jazeera_controversies
The publication receives public funding from the Qatar government. I will keep it in mind, as I do with all major MSM 😊 I have Jewish ancestry, don't support the genocide, and make sure my genes don't cause bias. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al_Jazeera_Media_Network
Cosplaying your “Jewish ancestry” to self-righteously use words like genocide for a war started by the terrorists you’re supporting just makes you ick. Imagine if your child has been held in tunnels for a year and a half for doing nothing more than dancing for peace. 🙄✌️#freethehostages
I was able to provide other sources, so back to my point... bc Biden didn't the same and got away with it, I don't think we can have Trump removed, but they both violated "procedure" and arguably the Constitution.
That's the unfortunate problem with spineless representatives. They should ALL have stopped everything and have a thorough investigation. They beat Biden down and everyone was counting on them when the big mouths like Schumer Schiff and Pelosi should have demanded it.
You do realize that we no longer can be depended on the very people we voted for to bring to the forefront our concerns or even protect us against Trump. It’s impeachment time who’s bringing it forward.
Interesting. Starting to see a trend line with the Senator. He should show he cares by giving up
His leadership role and retiring, let the governor pick a new Senator.
0 heartless spine. If it was his daughter wonder how his vote would have gone 🤔 I think if I sit down and really think hard I could come up with an answer.
Question: do you think it's *just* Schumer and the others who voted for cloture or is it the majority of the Democratic Senate caucus and this was all just kabuki theater for many of those who voted "No" (i.e. they only voted "No" because those 8 "Yes" votes guaranteed a GOP win regardless)?

Hopefully it will happen soon.
does 45 & his corrupt cronies have Kompromat on shady vance?
if so … he is probably permanently compromised.
not to mention his gay sugar daddy: lil peter t.
they will turn on shady vance with a crazy quickness.
Sometimes those who become students of the law are looking for ways to undermine it.
ENOUGH. 🤬😤

This is why I think he voted for cloture.
Try a different argument than "no he isn't" because I can back up my "yes he is" so let's see you back up that "he isn't".
Can't? Then go away, I'm not here for your less than stellar opinion.

People like Schumer and Fetterman, just say they're Democrats. And everyone takes them at their word.
The Republicans are the same. And that actually explains a lot.
ActBlue is THE fundraising platform for Democrats. It asks the questions for compliance with federal and state fundraising laws. How are you going to donate to candidates if you are not using ActBlue?

Donors + more
Let's really see what their motivations are...
Today we start with everyone's friend Schumer. ;)
More to come.
Trump *and* Epstein donated to Schumer's early campaigns.

why is the following a non-issue?
Republicans are paid to win, Democrats are paid to lose.
Everything Nancy got passed was stuff Republicans already wanted but didn't want to be blamed for.
