Absolutely shameful they passed t! Disgusted at this point with the DNC establishment! There needs to be major changes in this party if it expects to continue to exist! Just disgusted
💙VOTE NO SENATORS‼️🇺🇸 THIS ADMINISTRATION has already decimated half of Government jobs & agencies. A NO VOTE WILL FORCE THE GOP to come back to the table to NEGOTIATE a DEAL FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE‼️ It may take a minute for them to take ownership & come to the table, but they will. This all on them‼️🇺🇸
She's a right wing democrat that rolls with the tide to pick sides, luckily progressives are pushing the party at the moment, they need to take control over it completely or the democrat party is over!
It's going to take a pledge from the party leaders to end citizens united and work for the people!
I left the party in 2016 after watching Hillary cheat to give herself the nomination, which directly gave us Trump.
I allowed myself to be extorted to vote for her to prevent Trump, and I did that again and again in 24, even though they spent 4 years literally doing nothing but fund and arm genocide
As the minority leader, Schumer is not up for the challenge to stand against the MAGA GOP bullies who should take full responsibility for the shutdown they already started and makes Dems look weak which will directly affect them in upcoming elections.
AOC doesn’t “take” his seat. Gov. Hochul would have to appoint her as replacement. Let’s assume that is exactly what she does. AOC now gets to hold that Senate seat until a special election or the next general election. Because AOC is in the house, Hochul would be forced to hold a special election
in 80 days, which means that AOC would be spending the next few months defending her new seat. If either of those elections is lost to a Republican, we have taken a giant step backward.
Schumer is so out of touch with his constituency and the country. We need bold and courageous leadership in this moment, not capitulation. Schumer needs to go!
At least SOME Democrats realize they are there to protect the people & the Constitution. That notion has never entered DonOLD tRump's feeble mind & never will. There is a multitude of people marching in DC right now to FIGHT for our rights & freedoms. Those wanting to cave to a DICKtator need to go!
No milquetoast! Schumer worries about "shutting down" the Gov? Geeze--smell the coffee! Trump-DOGE-2025 have already started to shut down the Government! The Dem's need to fight Trump. Appealing to "rules" and "procedures" fail when Trump does not give a rat's ass about rules and procedures.
Gary Peters is an ass. I called his phones twice a week for months over Gaza, and no one ever answers. If you guys get someone on the line, I’ll be AMAZED.
Well...with @schumer.senate.gov in the driver's seat, looks like Democrats WILL take a knee, and perhaps cut their own legs off to appease the Felon and his klan. As an aside...even if they all voted NO, without a majority, it's an exercise in futility. Nancy needs to stop posting false hope.
Schumer votes yes replace him put Adam in we need strong warriors no pussy ass or you will be replaced this is the fight of our lives you have to be all in.
what really sucks is that you americans are so fucking brain dead that you were willing to put us in this position. If enough democrats had shown up when they were supposed to, and voted for Kamala, we wouldn't be here now. Sure, we'd still have racist Trumptards, but we'd manage. Now, it's all over
But, and listen up, if enough people in those swing states actually got off their asses and voted, or put aside their stupid virtue signaling about Gaza long enough to vote for Harris, then Musk couldn’t have as easily tweaked those close margins in those toss-up counties to give the win to Trump.
The men in the Democratic party are a huge let-down. They're just as spineless as the Republicans. We need more women in leadership ... no, strike that ... we need ALL leadership positions filled by gutsy women ...
I have absolutely no respect for that woman anymore. She proved herself to be a shill, and the final straw was her throwing AOC under the bus by causing her to be voted off the oversight committee chairmanship. Fuck her.
Ngl. I’d probably be doing the same. We have fixes to most of our most pressing problems. Get money out of government. End citizens united. Term limits for congress and SCOTUS. No trading while in office….. fixes we will never see 😑
Performative bs from Pelosi, she would vote yes if they needed the votes in the House. She is only doing this because her part is done and knows her credibility is on the floor after blocking @aoc.bsky.social from getting a top role at the DNC.
Dems suck at messaging. Period. They will be blamed as they are not united & have no consistent message. If Trump is saying good job Chuck you have failed. Completely.
10 Senate Democrat's voted for cloture friday afternoon with the Republican's. Trump will be a dictator. 53 days it took Hitler to destroy German Democracy and today on Trump's 53rd day America with Schumer's 10 democrats ended America's Democracy and Constitution.
Rules for the Senate Dems to remove leaders, for those that are bored:
Just 10 members (20% of the Senate Dem Conference) can call for a meeting of the conference to vote on whether and who shall replace Schumer as Conference Chair and Democratic Leader.
10 Democrats have voted with the Republican's to end the Constitution and rule law on the 53rd day of Trump's Presidency. Exactly how long Hitler needed to end Germany's Democracy. Cortez-Masto, Durbin, Fetterman, Gillibrand, Hassan, King, Peters, Schatz, Schumer, Shaheen.
Yeah, bc women are all too familiar with detecting & fighting off predators. The men, especially the white ones, have zero instincts for fending off an attack. Pelosi is right. Listen to the women. We’ve been scanning our environment for threats all our lives & know the dangers of being too polite.
Yeah, but she’s damn right about this issue. WTF is the matter with Schumer?
Say whatever you want about her, much of it warranted, but she’s got more spine than the majority of male politicians in both parties. They are a bunch of jellyfish.
Biden would have not carried the election. The same folks who refused to vote for Harris because of Gaza, weren’t gonna vote for Biden either. His ratings were lower than hers.
Honestly he should have never been running in the first place. They should have had an open primary That's what the party originally wanted but Joe Biden didn't want that because of his fragile little ego
Very tough spot for him, he is applying a tactical move looking at the big picture & knows that averting a shutdown is the lesser of 2 evils. A shutdown will stall the courts, shift more finger pointing to a hobbled & battered democratic party & do more harm than good for the people.
Normally I would support keeping the government open as the party that shuts down the government gets their butt kicked in the next election. The GOP has already shut it down, the people are angry and Dems standing up for them would be the first physical thing to show they have their back.
I can’t imagine sleeping tonight knowing the fascists just secured their biggest win today, knowing there is no opposition fighting for us, that they could have stopped them but didn’t. @dscc.bsky.social
Obama isn’t actively holding office. So.. Most electeds are gonna be like “Yo it ain’t your Senate seat on the line…” He can urge constituents within certain states to call and tell their senators to shut it down though..
In all honesty I won't be surprised if she does announce retirement sooner rather than later but for now she's still in there.
And honestly if Pelosi's calling him out, you know it's bad. As she's extremely pragmatic; if she thought the horse trading would help here she'd do it and damn the optics.
We need the grandees of the party to make it clear that this is a crisis. Those grandees are Pelosi, Obama, Rice, Clinton and Jeffries.
These are the people who can wake Schumer up.
Careful here. Bernie is one of these “old men” and he’s the best politician we have in my opinion. Maybe “Those corrupt cunts need to be ushered to the nearest guillotine.” would suffice instead?
Schumer brings Susan Collins’ furrowed eyebrows to a knife fight. He is no longer effective. We need new crisis leadership and I look forward to phone banking and donating to his primary challenger.
@schumer.senate.gov did you bring one or two eyebrows to the negotiation table?
If you live in the district of @cortezmasto.senate.gov , contact her immediately and talk her down from supporting Trump and Musk on the CR vote today. That's Nevada, I believe.
I wish they would. Their heads are firmly embedded in the sand even though 2 of them are retired and collect social security. You cannot make this up 🤦♀️😡
URGENT! KEEP CALLING. PEEL OFF ALL DEM SENATORS YOU CAN. ☎️: (202) 224-3121
Tell them to vote NO on Cloture and NO on CR. Vote is pushed to after 1:15ish for now. Situation is fluid.
The only public YES votes are Schumer and Fetterman. They need 7-8 total. KEEP CALLING.
Call retiring Senators too!
If primaries cause voter bases to split, I mean.. we don’t wanna have a “too moderate” democrat replaced by an alt right republican… Primary challenges are fine as long as we keep harping on party unity throughout. No butthurt “protest votes”, no nonsense about not voting because “both suck”..
I have a full list of every democratic senator and whether they’ve confirmed they’re voting NO or not. I screenshotted the proof from their social media. If they lied, we will know. If they vote yes, we will know.
It’s time for Schumer to step down. His way of doing things is outdated and ineffective. It’s time for new blood and a turning of the page in leadership.
Unfortunately Cortez Masto, Dick Durbin, Fetterman (who has turned into a MAGAt) and was always going to vote yes and Shumer all voted YES. There were 6 more Dems that also voted YES.
The only R that I'm aware of that voted NO was Rand Paul.
Schumer is failing the country. Schumer is failing the party. Schumer is failing the moment. Democratic Senators need to replace him as minority leader.
Brian Schatz is a senator from my state and I'm so disappointed! I always had a bad feeling about him and now he's proven my gut feeling right! Total TRAITOR!
Thank you Nancy Pelosi for staying strong and fighting for our Democracy! Thank you for keeping your oath!
didn’t the hippie generation just want to work till they had enough money to retire? we appreciate your service, now go enjoy your grandkids while you can.
Trump and Republicans have already made fun of Schumer's reasoning on this. He's crowing about the Dems cowardice even though Schumer has a valid point. At this point, the Dems may lose in the court of public opinion but they show all America (sans MAGA,) they have backbone and some fighting spirit.
Honest question: Do you think there is a reason (other than fear or laziness) that Schumer and others are voting yes? Do you think they are being bribed or manipulated in some way? What’s the impetus?
@schumer.senate.gov we need a #NewSenateMinorityLeader today …If you think the magas are getting booed just wait, the ceiling is coming down! #Betrayal #VoteNo
Nancy Pelosi is the smartest and most intelligent speaker ever! I admire her stand and her strength. No one, and I mean NO ONE can hold a candle to her! Democratic senators MUST listen to her. Shes right!! 👏👏👏👏🙏🙏🙏🙏💕💕💕
AOC was among the first voices and had been the loudest in the news calling for this- Pelosi’s redundant silencing of progressive voices ignores the wishes of the growing majority in the Dem party whom they cannot win without. New leadership including removal of the greedy DNC, & no superdelegates
Some Dems don't want a shut down to keep the courts open and keep filing suits. Valid point.
Except when the other side rapes the Constitution in broad daylight knowing SCOTUS is in on it.
Trump's Sadministration is ALREADY defying courts orders. That boat has sailed.
March, strike, boycott!
I'm ALL FOR the shut down, but the GOP & their corporate media whores will find a way to blame it on Democrats. This is a tough vote. Who knows what's over the rainbow if the Government shuts down in the Trump/Musk era? Will Trump declare martial law. What if congress never reconvenes? Tough choices
The Dems needs to explain the pros and cons of holding firm against the GOP funding bill, in clear and succinct maner, the the general populace. I feel like people will understand why an alternative is a must. The political risks are higher if the pass the bull as is.

They hit her husband with a hammer.
They came to her office on J6 to kill her.
Schumer is letting MAGA “own the libs” once again.
For fucks sake, fight!
Schumer is a coward and Pelosi is spot on. The time for compromise has loooong since past.
Watch out for those pigs flying away from their responsibility.

They need to shame him into resigning immediately, and have AOC take his seat.
No respectable leader stands alone while every other person under him stands opposed.
That's not leadership, that's bullshit
They put poison pills in a “Dirty” CR that lets Trump do whatever he wants.
If the government shuts down, Trump does whatever he wants.
There is no good choice, except to STAND and FIGHT.
Chuck Schumer is a pathetic and weak politician.
and any other matter that comes up during the rest of his last term (not subtle hint).
Leaders lead.
She was the most effective speaker of all time.

AOC's time will come, and I am looking forward as she gains experience.

Remember this the next time they pretend to care about fighting corruption
Chuck then rolls over on spurious grounds.
You've then got turncoat Gavin from Cal, who was bullied by Trump for a decade. Who now is best friends with extreme MAGA.
WTF is going on?

HOLD THE LINE OR RESIGN
Majority are a no.
Good to hear that MD is a solid NO vote on this insanity.
Will check back later to check my hypothesis
Every one of the sellouts hedged.
They all knew they were going to vote for it, but they’re just too chickenshit to say it with their chest.
They better all get primaried.
Then it comes out that, at lunch, Schumer drops he's voting for the CR and has the votes to break a Democratic filibuster.
I'm guessing that was him talking out of his ass to force it.
This is a non-negotiable five alarm fire! 🔥🧯🔥🧯🔥🧯🔥
💙🇺🇦🇨🇦🇲🇽💙
Senators must vote no on cloture (60+ votes).
Don’t be fooled by cowards that KNOW their “No on CR” means nothing in a Republican senate.

He knows this is on Trump/Elon but acting on his own behalf.
F$ck Schumer!
A week after his first inauguration I figured out that he LIES about what would have to be true in order to justify his NEXT horrific action.
Resist the deceit of trumpism.
