Will all these lawsuits be successful??? Or will Trump defy law and order as he normally does
Democrats don’t need more policies now. They need to take action of how to rid of these two criminals along with the other oligarch cronies
I’m hearing that you are simply “hearing things” instead of taking firm action as the leader you were supposed to be. Leaving the discovery of issues to us. We need you to take action. Are you capable of doing that?
As the senate minority leader, do you have a plan to, perhaps, bring this up on the floor? Perhaps do a talking filibuster on every bill, listing every atrocity the Trump admin is putting forward?
Hearing doesn’t help, nor does telling us what you’re hearing.
At minimum you should be blasting out an easy to access, easy to read list of what Trump has done wrong in your view and the view of the Democratic Party, and it should be framed for maximum effect and going out daily! REAL QUESTION: What are you doing!?!
As a 9/11 victim/ survivor whatever you want to call me, I am a LOT more concerned about what the terrorist in the Oval Office are doing RIGHT-FUCKING-NOW to the health and welfare of EVERY fucking person in this country. Fight, goddamnit! Obstruct!
Yeah, um, you may not have noticed, but hundreds of thousands lost their jobs today. People who now have no idea how they're going to survive the next month. Great to highlight this horrible event, but let's also remember that there are a lot of others.
Did Don the Con infamously utter a sentence or phrase something to the effect of, "Now I have the tallest building in Manhattan."??? Do his actions surprise you? Call him out on it all. That care being given costs money. All the Govt money is "his" money and he wants it. He doesn't care about 9/11.
I put a plan together for the Dems. I'm posting it everywhere and can't even get an indication that dem elected or party official thinks they need to do anything beyond what they are doing now which is generally meaningless.
Congress must ACT to preserve Const’l powers reserved to it with the many tools you have.
AT LEAST request an HR audit of the agencies so Congress can KNOW if such deep civil servant structure & # changes the Exec Br forces still allows agencies to enforce the laws and procedure y’all passed.
Rather than just reporting about the dismantling of all that is good, can you please include how Dems are going to address this, or give guidance to what the public can do?
Stand up and do something about ALL of the things Musk and Trump are doing to destroy our country and democracy. Your words are useless; we need ACTIONS! Weaponize Democracy 🇺🇸
If you or anyone on your staff reads when you're not facilitating the Musk/Trump fascist takeover, please make sure to read this. With every passing hour, you are surrendering our country and our lives. Read this piece and take it to heart. Or let someone else lead. https://thehill.com/opinion/campaign/5142872-democrats-trump-republicans-blame/
Retire old man. You are feckless and ineffective. Give up the ego and do what is best for the country. Retire and usher the new generation in. Why can’t you old people have some grace and let a new generation take over. It’s time, you need to head out to pasture.
Sharing information is important. Especially sharing information we don’t have access to. Equally important is sharing an action step with it. Here’s the model:
“This thing is happening. Here’s what we’re doing about it. (Then provide detail.)”
We expect major overhaul on Dem strategy & work ethic, long-term, which means tossing tired playbooks & cushy working hours for a long haul.
The GOP has out-planned, out worked & out-played you.
The days of corporate hacking, padding pockets & cushy hours are over.
My God, I hope you’re up for it..
Chuck isn’t it time to stop this with treason, domestic terrorism, invoke the 25th amendment I don’t know, but something’s gotta be done. I think he’s trying to break Hitler’s record of tearing down a democracy in 52 days. You know how he likes to be number one.
This, get these domestic terrorist out of office, replace them with Kamala since she would’ve won if they didn’t throw out 4 million votes. @sanders.senate.gov @ericswalwell.bsky.social @governorwalz.mn.gov
Want to know someone that can do something about that…. You, you are that someone. File articles of impeachment, file a bill… we the people have “complain on Bluesky, Twitter and Facebook” covered. You are in the senate… do your job.
Chuck, while that's upsetting news it's hardly the most urgent problem we're facing, wouldn't you say? For instance, top of my mind is THE COUP. Our government is in shambles, our secrets are being publicly posted on the unsecured DOGE site, and our nuclear weapons experts are awol. It's a COUP.
Your social media strategy is bad. Go look at AOC and how she’s informing AND taking action AND giving people some cause for hope that someone is fighting. This. Is. Not. It. Hire and listen to younger dems for the sake of all of us
No shit @schumer.senate.gov how about we see some action from you instead of sitting back giving us a play-by-play. Shut the government down. Do something. This is bullshit.
Jesus H. Christ. They are gutting the administrative state every day. Do you even know what is going on? And that this wishy washy crap is one reason why the 2024 election went the way it did? Stop this mealy mouthed nonsense and fight!
Just curious... why didn't you do your job for the American people and the Constitution when McConnell illegally denied #44 the SCOTUS hearing in 2016? Tell us exactly how you thought letting R's LITERALLY steal a SCOTUS seat would result in anything other than where we are today?
If the Democrats wanna win the mid-terms (or even survive that long as a party) they need to show some real Irish fight instead of just rolling over and showing their bellies or we'll find people who will.
Holding the current administration and the unelected foreign billionaire Russian asset who rigged the election in 2024 accountable should be the Democrats' top priority right now. Democracy is on the brink of collapsing. Let the people know that you're on the right side of history.
No more excuses: I want an opposition cabinet filled with Dem party’s best and brightest. And weekly “Rallies 4 America.” We need a presidential primary NOW so that person can run for the next four years and our party would have an actual leader. We have to start countering this nightmare.
Where were YOU Chuck when they REPEATEDLY told you what they were going to do, decimate the civil service and the laws of the US?! You need to resign. You suck, Chuck. Make room for a real fighter. Your political days are done.
So, @schumer.senate.gov, person holding the power and position to take direct action in this matter, what are you going to do about it? (If it were me, I’d stop trying to use Trump’s BS to campaign on BlueSky and start trying to sway some GOP colleagues into doing the right thing.)
I saw a very compelling thread about building a shadow government, as has apparently been done in the UK. Get organized, get creative, build relationships, stop coasting. Get @petebuttigieg.bsky.social involved.
I am one of your constituents. I am embarrassed for you and by you. Get it together.
You are partly responsible for why we are here. Nothing you say or do holds any weight. You are complicit, too old, and an oligarch in your own special way. Go away and move aside.
Jfc I am reading your feed are your aids not telling you how pissed we are because of TP’s coup or r you really just that out of touch!?
WTF is wrong with you. Go collect ppl that’s are pledged to the constitution and arrest musk already. Call Pete & Liz Cheney to address the nation there is a coup
stop following chuck if all you doing is bitching that he ain’t getting stuff down, he didn’t vote repub, he doesn’t side with trump, hes not raping and purging the system like musk is! he’s keeping us informed and at the moment that’s all a MINORITY leader can do. And if you could do better, run.
It's important to call complicit, ineffective, 'reaching across isles' types. We need a renewed, fierce opposition party and @schumer.senate.gov is too soft, no fire in his belly, and has no will or strength to fight like a badass and serve the people. Now more than ever, we must call them out
I'm hearing that you're a geriatric bitch who is paid $200,000 per year with taxpayer's money to sit on your decrepit ass and revel in the suffering of the people you're supposed to represent.
There are many of us out here and there will be many more. We are waiting for someone to lead us. It will be the American Navalny.
Thank you, Senator, for speaking up.
Remember when Tommy Tuberville of all people obstructed essential Senate business? Remember when Mitch McConnell blocked Supreme Court nominees from even beginning the nomination process?
Start using their tactics on them!
You say that as if you don't have any power. That's the kind of thing I expect to hear from someone who isn't one of the 100 most power elected officials in the country or a leader of the party that is supposed to be resisting this.
From you I want to hear what you are doing about it.
Senator Schumer, will all due respect, you're the Senate Minority, not a reporter. Something like this shouldn't only state what Trump is doing, but should also include your plan to stop him.
Amazing you're concerned about protections for something that happened 24 years ago. I agree and only wish your thoughts extended to protecting the demise of our democracy so we could extend these programs.
Republicans DO NOT CARE about this country or its citizens. When will people get it? They want to gain personally and financially and get re-elected. That’s it. They are cowards and sycophants. WE ARE NOT SAFE under this fascist regime.
I know you don't want to hear this, Chuck, but I'm gonna keep saying it.
Yes, we keep up with the news. You're not a reporter, that's not your job. Your job is to fight for us in the House. Your job is to inform us of how you are fighting. Stop your whinny ass milk-toast bullshit and FUCKING FIGHT!
So does this mean you're finally going to stop pointlessly 'compromising' with the fascists in power or are you still going to remain a spineless sea slug on most things 🤡
This isn't it. I get you're trying to evoke a sense of shock using 9/11, but people already know what trump is doing is bad. Instead, they want *a plan of action* and they want to visually see Dems get messy. Strikes, slow walk procedure, test rules, start to educate voters on upcoming elections etc
Well, Mr. Schumer, make sure the Dems win the majority of BOTH HOUSES in 2026, and have a plan to undo and remedy this massive sabotage to our government and country. And corporate centrism won't cut it.
Reminder - EVERY Democrat voted to confirm Marco Rubio
so every Democrat is as responsible as Republicans approving him making Russia Great Again and betraying Ukraine as usual @warren.senate.gov @whitehouse.senate.gov https://bsky.app/profile/janoschjdf.bsky.social/post/3licoavl4ps2j
This, plus dems are ignoring that true the vote purged millions of dem voters. Are you really going to let maga steal an election (again)? This isn’t a conspiracy, journalists Greg Palast has the stats.
I hear that unauthorized DOGE operatives are illegally rummaging through my personal financial information at the IRS, Centers for Medicare Medicaid, US Treasury… You are flat footed, agencies are crumbling, civil servants are harmed, all your constituents are harmed… WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?

I don’t think anyone, Dems or Rs, knows what’s going on in the government
Corporate capture is at least a defined issue with a solution; everyone being incompetent isn’t, and it’s unfortunately the most likely scenario
Take your mobile press conference podium and step aside.
You’ve done nothing effective to stop this despite your position. Nothing on guns, nothing on taxes, nothing.

this is useless "messaging"

Why are you holding onto your bootstraps so tightly, sir? You can do this with some fucking grace still. Just saying. 🖕
Thank you, Senator, for speaking up.

I bet you complain about how deluded MAGA is in not being about to see Trump's flaws with absolutely no sense of self-awareness.
Now your turn. What's the worst thing you can say about the Democratic leadership. Of how about the worst thing you can say about Israel?
Democratic leadership thinks that centerism is the way to victory, not realizing how many people are *begging* for radical action.

I want to know what you're asking us to join you in doing about this.
Why aren't you organizing nationwide rallies to draw attention to the coup, focusing on Republican districts?
You get Chuck Schumer instead.
You need to step aside for a new progressive party. One that's willing to fight dirty.
You're not our hero. You're not going to be the saviour. Nobody will rally behind you. You're too weak.
