this is what i think of trump right now. 😁 and schumer is about to get some ridiculous AI created picture if he doesnt reverse course and shut that shit down
sorry to say, but if you look at the bill. this bill is basically Nancy Pelosi’s old bill, and tweaked a bit. No reason so risk a shut down at this time. Dems can’t look bad, not at this time. Let’s focus on taking the House & Senate so in 2 yrs we impeach him and remove him.
The billionaire vampires have already sucked all the money out of Uncle Sam. Enough is enough, we hold the line here and do not budge on more tax breaks for the rich. Increase taxes on billionaires instead and no budget cuts will be necessary.
We are calling/posting to demand @schumer.senate.gov vote no on cloture for the House-passed Continuing Resolution, and move to pass a clean CR instead. It is vital that Congress take back their constitutional power of the purse and work to block Elon Musk’s control of our government.
Timid mice get devoured by snakes! The democrats still don't understand who they are dealing with. And this is why they lost to a convicted felon and insurrectionist.
if our elected leaders are just going to roll over and play dead, they should at least have the courtesy to perform harikari/seppuku, so someone can quickly take their place
Taxation without representation! We seriously need folks to step up and run against these greedy fools should we have another election. Hell! I think we should force them to resign now and hold special elections for every one who voted yes.
Any idea who is harmed most by a shutdown? I think National Parks Service employees have already been through enough. Liberals have always opposed government shutdowns for humanitarian reasons. If Dems succeed and shut down the government, all the pain will be pinned on Dems. How would that help?
History will crucify him for abandoning the American people. I bet he won’t suffer the consequences of his jelly spine anyway, being a multi millionaire.
We shouldn’t call him “Chuck” any more. “Chuck” is for kids with backbones. Just “Charles” from now on. “Charles” is for effete jerks who think they’re a step above. “Chuck” is your buddy. “Charles” is your elitist neighbor.
I’ve never understood how the Senate chooses who will be minority leader, or majority leader for that matter. It seems like once chosen, the person remains leader for the rest of their Senate tenure. Apparently seniority has a lot to do with it?
Wasn’t that because McConnell voluntarily stepped down? I’m not saying he wasn’t pressured — I have no knowledge. But apparently there’s no free, fair election of the leader, correct?
Schumer snatches defeat from the jaws of victory: the special skill of establishment Democrats.
And all in the name of… themselves, basically. Certainly not us.
Meanwhile, progressives like Sanders and AOC fight on, plainly and straightforwardly on our side.
Looks like too many Doge coins have been jammed up the ol' Schumer Chute!
PSST! Chuck! Heads up-- It would be more graceful and honorable to just retire at this point!
Chuck has got to go…he’s fucking Americans because he has no balls…he’s afraid…he’s not relevant during this time in history. Chuck is helping sink America. We need a strong LEADER NOW!!
And it's not merely a CR which the Repubs are trying to railroad through: there's also the de facto 'enabling act' aspect which gives #45/47 and his hench-beings virtually unchecked power. Given the administrative disaster which has ensued since January 20, I'm NOT in favor.
Maybe his paymasters have told him what he has to do and after all he’s just a businessman…
The level of dishonesty and farce in politics is mind numbing. Get those charlatans out of there and take away their pensions and his benefits.
After years of corruption they should face trial.
SHAME ON YOU @schumer.senate.gov You have betrayed the American people! @klobuchar.senate.gov I expect you to stand shoulder to shoulder with the people of Minnesota and VOTE NO tomorrow. Do not be a traitor or a Trump/Elon enabler.

Mark, Donk and Brittney's accounts have been unjustly
Suspended they need all our help to speak up to #bluesky
@markhamillofficial.bsky.social
Because some fucktard spouted lies about them and they were suspended. I know exactly who was behind it. Email: [email protected] and state you want them back 💙
Blueskky wouldn't tell them. They did nothing wrong. They deserve there accounts back
They are the heart and soul of the #bluecrew community
#FreeBrittney&Donk
I respect you, @Mar🐪, but a) please don’t use AI generated slop, even to make valid points, and b) please alt-text images for those of us who need it. Thanks!
I second the motion. I think that Schumer is acting in good faith, but he's catastrophically wrong in his reasoning. He is just constitutionally (pardon the pun) incapable of appreciating the gravity of the current situation. Democrats must show courage and resist.
Did he get an offer he couldn't refuse? Otherwise, he needs to realize the old ways no longer apply with this crazy circus. Hope the Dems can convince him to change his mind. We won't survive another month of this shitshow. Vote NO!
Schumer went on MSNBC with Chris Hayes today and said the shutdown would allow Trump, Musk, DOGE and Vought to control everything and close down the federal government. THEY'RE ALREADY DOING THAT! And he thinks if the government shuts down, only Trump can start it up again.
As far as I know, if a shutdown happens, Congress can go back to the table and put together a new CR or an actual budget. Once they do that and it passes, the shutdown would be over. How does the Senate minority leader not understand these things?!
Then, Schumer said courts would close under a shutdown. I'm not positive, but I don't think that has ever happened before. Why does he think it would happen now?
@schumer.senate.gov The UK PM Neville Chamberlain Doctrine, give in to evil, offer empty promises to justify it. On 9/30/1938, UK PM Chamberlain gave Hitler Czechoslovakia without asking the Czechs or Slovaks. In return UK PM Chamberlain PROMISED US PEACE IN OUR TIME. World War II started 9/1/1939.
For whatever it's worth, I sent the traitor an email requesting his resignation. For anyone who also wishes to send a polite, but strongly-worded email: https://www.schumer.senate.gov/contact/mess... He may not receive the message in time, but receive it he will. Fight, resign or be viewed complicit Chuck!
Chuck Schumer is corrupt, clearly. He learned nothing from Mitch McConnell. No concessions whatsoever. Unbelievable. No fight, no concessions. Imagine AOC in the role.
Primary Schumer's ass!! So few chances we will ever get a leverage against them, the first chance we get and they just drop dead...the f*ck is wrong with them! Hopeless!!!! F*ckin hopeless!!!
As a life long democrat I ask Charles Schumer to resign and step aside for the sake of our democracy and our party! Resign immediately or we will ask for a recall election
Dems have the opportunity to show their constituents & the world that they are going to stand up to Trump,the Republican House & Senate. Instead,they are capitulating!This is a gift being handed to them but they would rather just go along and not upset things.Their way isn’t working!! SHUT IT DOWN!
Seriously? We're facing what is possibly the last chance for anyone to legitimately stop the horseshit that's been going on in DC since Jan 20, and you're worried about AI art? Really?
Yes, I'm worried about the thing that's destroying the environment every time someone uses it. Also I would hope that since Mark is in the arts he wouldn't use the thing that some people want to replace him with.
As much as I agree with the statement, and we all need to resist the current admin
I cannot trust words that come from someone okay with using Gen. AI. The very tool used for scams, corporate greed, copyright and privacy violations, and environmental decline.
Mark needs to stop.
Read Schumer’s editorial in the NYTimes. Trump and Musk would have even more destructive power in a shutdown. And the courts would be shuttered, so no way to stop them!
He’s naive, stupid, or compromised - or all of the above. Thinks he’s being strategic and out-maneuvering Trump and Musk while they play him like a fiddle. Shameful.
Coming after trans people, fanboying over Tucker Carlson, letting Steve Bannon say Trump won 2020, and attacking the homeless isn't getting to the root of the problem. It's appearing on those popular platforms like Joe Rogan and pushing your ideas and how you would help people. He's not doing that.
You don’t win elections not knowing what other people are thinking. You can cry and pretend to grand standing like Schumer “ we will win” but it will mean nothing if you have no real strategy to win
Is there still mystery as to what they're thinking? They published an entire plan about it: Project 2025. They announce it constantly in every medium. Schumer being a useful idiot doesn't make platforming and agreeing with Nazis any more productive.
Not saying I particularly support Newsom. I support anybody that is actually thinking about how to win back the country instead of shouting meaningless slogans while Maga enjoy your tears
As Cromwell said to the Long Parliament in 1653, "You have sat too long for any good you have been doing lately. Depart, I say, and let us have done with you. In the name of God, go!"

AOC ROCKS!
She is intelligent, articulate and right.

Pathetic leadership ...

So did all the of the other politicians that were politicians in Germany.
We are past that point. Rs sided with T when they decided to give up their power & not stop him.
Let the Rs dig their own grave. Ds shouldn’t accompany.

there is a free and fair election, but they rarely challenge an incumbent. and i think they vote for a new one every congress
And all in the name of… themselves, basically. Certainly not us.

Schumer: Yes I know, but if we put up to much of a fuss, they will take away our tea.

Call each of these Senators to NOT vote with the GOP & instead grow a spine. Each number starts with 202-224
Schumer - 6542
Hassan - 3324
Peters - 6221
Durbin - 2152
Schatz - 3934
King - 5344

"I'm sure they've learned their lesson."
Best for the country? NOPE (not a factor)
Best for the politician? BINGO!
They can be bought.
That's why WE have to be the ones to clean up THEIR mess (since technically, they're the citizens' employees).
Anyone that goes along is a grifter too looking out for number one

It's one of the reasons so many Americans are just plain pissed-off.
Time for fresh blood as leader
We WILL be utterly and completely failed by them.
Instead, we got a semi-walker.

It is the better of two bad choices.
(Such a bad decision)
No thanks!!
