OK, now the vote is over. We need to lick our wounds and unify this party on the Hill. There are hard feelings that need to be set aside on the House side and the Senate side. Don't ignore the gap; fix it. We need UNITY on the Hill.
I think he is hearing from Republicans who are not re-running what the real plan is behind the scenes and he cannot out his sources. He mentioned a Senator telling him about it. He may be a lot of things, but he is honest and a legal genius. I really do not believe he acted out of self-interest.
They’re already doing that. This bill will give them Congressional authority to continue. This isn’t about optics, it’s about doing anything necessary to stop them. Voting for it is cowardly and stupid.
It's time for his ass to go. Shut it down down, It already is. I'm gonna need all democrats to call chuck's office and raise hell! I don't care if you're not from New York. You can call anywhere from around the country, if you're a democrat and tell him to grow a fucking backbone!!

Fucking retire already! You have no idea how to be effective in modern politics. You’re a relic dragging this country into the drain. You’d think after the hubris of RGB and Biden fucked the party you’d avoid this mistake. 30 years voting Dem, now I have to look to a 3 rd party.
filibuster - she's right, and you're wrong:
AOC: It is almost unthinkable why Senate Democrats would vote to to hand the few pieces of leverage that we have away for free when we've been sent here to protect social security, protect medicaid, and protect medicare.
I'm with her:
Senator Murray:
It takes no imagination to consider how Trump would use the new authority he'd get from the House GOP slush fund bill to threaten and bully states across the country—you do what he says or he blows up your entire state budget. I will vote NO.
i haven't been able to find cantwell on bluesky, i gave her a similar earful on xitter and my acct was later suspended, altho i'm still not clear on the why of the xitter suspension - doesn't stop ph calls/letters tho
He is planning on voting yes for cloture. This would almost certainly allow the disastrous House CR (cedes power of the purse to the executive, making the legislative branch moot, among other deep, deep cuts) to pass
Allowed laws without the consent of Germany’s parliament, laying the foundation for the complete Nazification of German society. The law was passed on March 23, 1933, and published the following day. Its full name was the “Law to Remedy the Distress of the People and the Reich.”
Yes, Trump and Elon Musk are already shutting the government down. If you vote yes it will give Elon Musk and Donald Trump the ability to keep robbing the government of our tax dollars to give tax cuts to the wealthy. It will decimate Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security. Is that what you want?
Call the Senate Offices & tell Schumer 202-224-3121. Calls typically answered by staffers. Write yourself a script! It’s our Government. His decisions seem somewhat addled of late. Perhaps he needs retirement recommendations??
I just left a message on his web site. If you live in New York State, do that. (Not that I have much hope that it will make any difference--he seems determined to stomp all over any hope his constituents may have (foolishly) had that he would fight for us.
This is a terrible take, and everybody outside of the DC Dem bubble knows it. Time to step aside and let just about anybody else take your place as minority leader, since you refuse to do a damn thing to fight fascism.
I know what you mean by the DC Dem bubble but to be clear, those of us who live in DC are incredibly pissed off at Schumer right now. The DC budget cut is devastating and injurious to DC home rule.

Lifelong active Dem from NC. I have Stage IV cancer & this CR cuts cancer research by 57% as you well know. It cuts FEMA relief as you well know. Millions of Americans need & expect you to fight, not capitulate.
They're already doing it! What do you not get here? Let THEM shut it down! Taking a fucking stand! If not now then they own you. If they own you then there's no more room at the table for you. YOUR constituents want NO!
Short term pain for long term gain is a sacrifice willing to make for democracy!
You are the worst. My whole existence has been filled with you and your weak, pathetic Democrat friends doing fuck all to stop Republicans from privatizing and ruining everything that would help the people.
Why stop using the word that it is: privatization? They are wanting to move it out of the public sector and into the private sector. Privatizing it. Profitization is chasing increasing profits, which comes with privatization, but not what they’re trying to do.
I'm advocating to have it called profitization cuz companies only want the account of which you are the customer and their profiting off you. It should be called prophetization. For trumpers privatization does not get their attention like the word PROFITization

I’m so angry w you I keep coming back to tell you. You know what happened when people in power gave in to Hitler. You cannot give in to this dictator. If you can’t handle the fight say so and step down. Fight or step down.
Mr Schumer, sincerely. The GOP will weaponize everything against Dems every day, no matter your vote. Government shut down is happening today, every day. The only thing that Dems can do asap is vote unanimously and show union. If you don't, you've lost everything: Credibility. Listen to the People!

No Donald Trump is smashing the federal govt to death in brays daylight with a mallet & you want the Dems to walk in & put their fingerprints on the mallet. They'll shut the govt down they're not going to negotiate. Once it's down it's going to stay down cuz they wanted to kill it. Then what? ..
Well I'll tell you all those judgments we just got where they got to rehire everybody and they got a fund the agencies. Well those are wiped away cuz the government shutdown. The starving kids waiting for USAID to get re-funded well they're all going to die now bc Trump gets to decide ..
what agencies are critical. But yeah you made a stand you were united and those kids are dead. And now all those people in red states that were getting pretty annoyed with Musk and pretty annoyed with Trump because they're getting hurt suddenly are going to hear something new they're going to hear..
oh wait a minute it's the Dems close the govt down. They're going to hear it a lot they're going to hear it on Twitter non-stop from Musk they're going to hear it from Trump on TV non-stop wherever he's doing but the press covers he's going to have the bully pulpit and he's going to tell ..
how Dems shut everything down. And it'll be true. And then guess what Dems don't have the ability to start it up again. It's a one-way switch gets turned off it doesn't get turned back on not by us. So now everything that was happening in broad daylight is happening in darkness. ..
A (the hell) MEN! IF he does this I will NEVER side with him nor believe him again! THEY are going to stick it to us, fire more people, close more depts and steal more money NO MATTER HOW YOU VOTE! SO JUST SAY NO, CHUCK!
I'm gonna need all democrats to call chuck's office and raise hell! I don't care if you're not from New York. You can call anywhere from around the country, if you're a democrat and tell him to grow a fucking backbone!!

Tim Walz is 61, and is the governor of Minnesota. Bernie Sanders in 83, and isn’t a Dem—he’s a carpetbagger when it suits him. He’s divisive in the Senate, and has alienated his natural allies his entire career.
🟥 What arrogance you have, Sen. Schumer. You act like you’re the only Democrat who understands the political process & cares for the people. WRONG. What you are is short-sighted & foolish, leaping on a shallow path that cannot alter the direction we’re headed & will not trigger meaningful solutions.
But they are doing that now, or rather Trump is. Just put the politics aside for once and do the right thing. Vote against it and in so doing you will give people hope. Otherwise...
"He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their public Records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures."
Does this look familiar? Do you remember what they did? Bet you don't.You're a lost cause
Tell yourself that so you can feel good because you know nothing of sacrifice. Go ahead and tell yourself that to feel good because you know you'd instead kneel than stand and fight for what is right
The Judge today in MD mandated the Trump Admin rehire 1000's of people in VA, IRS, CDC, DOD, etc... every person fired.
So Schumer can't play that card tomorrow. He must vote NO AND LET THE COURTS FIGHT MUSK/DJT
They’re doing it already because they know you’re too weak to unite your party in opposition. The very least you can do is acknowledge your failure and step down- you’re not leading anything and everyone knows it, so get the Hell out of the way and let someone lead who actually will.
This moment confirms to Americans that Democratic leadership is disconnected from its base. Supporting this Continuing Resolution betrays your constituents’ values. No wonder so many hate Congress. If you can’t lead true opposition, leave Congress but don’t pretend to represent us.

Chuck Schumer and his representative are now in the office in DC I was able to leave a voicemail. I did speak with his representative yesterday and she did take my message and and they do pass them along.
I finally got through and left a voicemail.
I liked Stonekettle's post that if only Schumer would be against the GOP as strongly as he is now being with Dem constituents.
Call the office in the morning. I was able to call them yesterday at 10 AM. I've spoken to hid rep many times. They don't have a voicemail going after hours.
Setting my alarm to call him every hour once his voicemail is turned off. What a coward he won’t take messages. That’s OK. Democrats can call all day long all day all day.
@repjasmine.bsky.social folded. Chucky convinced her to pause for 30 days and push it forward. I AM REALLY pissed at her for flipping thanks to @aoc.bsky.social for standing firm
I am very disappointed in @repjasmine.bsky.social for allowing @schumer.senate.gov to go along with his vote to move the bill forward 😡 she was live on TikTok late last night, and here is her explanation
Nonetheless, we deserve our voices to be heard. Call all your congressman and senators. Use 5calls.org for phone numbers and scripts. If we go down, we’re going down swinging!
@jasmineforus.bsky.social Love last night on TikTok Chucky got her to pause for 30 days and push the forward I am very disappointed in her. @aoc.bsky.social Thanks for holding out
i dunno i think obama going full neocon after the hope campaign was a big sign of disconnect. as far back as you look, the disconnect has been there all along
So you will give them free rein to fire any and everybody that they want including the people that you fear that they would cherry pack. What’s your next move buying a Tesla? Maybe you can contribute some money to Donald Trump to make him happy I heard he has a meme coin that you could buy
Don’t be surprised when Dems get slaughtered in the midterms because you certainly don’t fight for us. If you’re not willing to fight Trump and Republicans on this I don’t hold out any hope that you will fight him on dismantling Social Security and Medicare
What got Trump elected in the first place is lost confidence that the Democratic Party will do anything to protect them they run scared and they seek cover. Chuck Schumer is the epitome of weakness if he keep challenge the Republican Party then he needs to step aside
Absolute cowardice. This is where you unite to AT LEAST show your constituents that you had the backbone to stand up when there is no other option at hand.
THEY ALREADY BLAME US FOR EVERYTHING! And they’re gutting everything anyway so what’s left to cherry pick / weaponize! Find your fucking spine and fight for us!
Resign. You are not the leader we need for the moment. It's cowardice not to try to use the leverage that Dems had to negotiate a better deal. You didn't even try to fight. Democratic leadership is pathetic.
Which is what they’ll do anyway. Do you have any idea how enraged your base is? I am a 63 year old lifelong Democrat, haves in every election since the day I turned 19. Every day we watch our country being destroyed and you do NOTHING. You are going to have to fight differently or we’re done.
I'm 74F, grew up in the Jim Crow south, this lack of leadership is heartbreaking, and it makes me angry! We know that Trump will use the shutdown to do dastardly deeds, even more, but we will take it to the streets and fight him! Leaders can't give up!
I'm gonna need all democrats to call chuck's office and raise hell! I don't care if you're not from New York. You can call anywhere from around the country, if you're a democrat and tell him to grow a fucking backbone!!

Step down, Chuck. We need a real leader in the Senate. You aren't listening to constituents, you aren't listening to government employees, and you're not listening to people in your own party.
Fucking where have you been the past 2 months? Mumbling about eggs while the opposing party destroys the country and more importantly hurts the people you are supposed to represent! Fucking hell, wake up!
Vote to pass their disastrous budget and you will accelerate the pain with which we are already dealing.
Please stop trying to scare us with your multiple excuses. You’re only demonstrating your weakness and your lack of leadership.
Buddy. Where have you been for the last 2 months? This is what they have already been doing since January 20th. We need a real opposition and yall just wanna bend over backwards.
You might not win this fight but it’s so important to fight it anyway.
They are already fucking doing that! They are gutting literally everything and keeping what they want! You are nothing but a hungry mouth for their dirty boots!
Right...I'm speechless at what he is doing. So spineless and shameless with the gaslighting. He is lying when he says he is doing this to help us. If he votes yes, it's because of another reason. He's doing it for a donor.
Maybe we should just quit voting. Sure Republicans will get power but we won't be disappointed anymore we'll know we're going to get shit on. An improvement from what you're offering. Fuck you
I’m not voting. This convinced me we are completely on our own. He’s white entitled an I’m going to keep pointing out that he’s white and entitled because you know what we have absolutely no vote. No say no nothing to take their benefits away but they continue to take ours away. We are on our own.
Yeah, i agree. I am trying to keep fighting but twats like @schumer.senate.gov make it hard to have faith. @sanders.senate.gov and @aoc.bsky.social give me hope but these shit heads try to reign them in.
I have three beautiful daughters that i want to have a wonderful life with all the rights my wife was raised with. I want them to have a democracy and I don't want them to ask why I was silent
Oh, I definitely have not been silent the last eight years. But I do think I need to speak with my daughter about going to college overseas so that she can have a life where she has full rights and she’s just not working to support white men like Chuck Schumer, who will trade their rights for a buck
They already are you weak ass. Quit making excuses. You're the reason the democratic party is losing support. All people that vote democrat want is someone that will fight, instead we get you.
Chuck, it's time to retire. The lack of leadership during the past 52 days speaks for itself. You and the rest of the Democrats that vote for this should hang your head in shame.
You’re a liar and a fucking coward! They’re already shutting it down you fucking traitor. You’re afraid of trump and what will happen if you don’t follow along. You’re a disgrace to the senate and to NY. You’re no New Yorker, we don’t bow to bullies and fascists. Step down #coward
They are already doing this. You are just agreeing to devastating cuts in advance without any resistance. And you are showing them you are weak and unwilling to obstruct. Fight damnit or resign and hand the reigns to someone who will actually fight for us.
Your time is over Chuck, you failed. I know your phone has been ringing off the hook w/ people begging you to vote no! You caved & now we will all be quickly led to slaughter. This is your legacy….congratulations! All to not be blamed for the shutdown. I am vibrating with rage, is anyone else?
I'm gonna need all democrats to call chuck's office and raise hell! I don't care if you're not from New York. You can call anywhere from around the country, if you're a democrat and tell him to grow a fucking backbone!!
202-224-6542
I got ahold of them yesterday morning at 10 AM. His representative took my message, and she said she would pass it along.You gotta blow up his phone line.They're there in the mornings.
I cried yesterday begging him to have courage because if this goes through a dear friend of mine waiting for a kidney will die. Fuck this. I’m so livid. Step aside for real leaders, now! There are many in for this moment and @schumer.senate.gov is not it.
Absolutely blinded and shaking. He cannot give even a fraction of a cockroach-sized shit about ANY constituents. My dog's turds are better advocates for people of this country than Schumer or Jeffries - both need to be DONE
You are giving your power away for free. They are already weaponizing their power. This is your one chance to use your power. Do you think McConnell would have blinked? Absolutely not! Shut. It. Down.
You are wrong, Chuck. Rethink this course of action before it's too late.
I'm gonna need all democrats to call chuck's office and raise hell! I don't care if you're not from New York. You can call anywhere from around the country, if you're a democrat and tell him to grow a fucking backbone!!
202-224-6542
Or you can do some research on your own instead of beseeching someone to explain something he won't. The reason he doesn't elaborate is clear. He is caving because he has given up.
We are all afraid. But he is supposed to be representing his party in Congress, not caving to fear. If he can't do the job he needs to step aside so someone else can.
Hers right to be afraid! I am afraid of how bad the shut down can get or that it will last two years. The bad guys are gonna do even worse stuff in either case.
Courage is doing the right thing even when you’re afraid.
Trump would be able to determine who is considered an essential worker...and that would determine who still gets to work and be paid through funds that are set aside to pay essential fed workers in the event if a shut down.
That’s not true. Schumer is a fool. The GOP will do whatever they want to do. A budget is not permanent. Schumer & Dems don’t know how to message or explain how a CR & shutdown works. This is the only thing they can control, but they hand bullies another weapon as if a gift will soften the beatings.
Congress could end the “economic emergency” Krasnov called to do this tariff crap. They’d have to vote on it within 15 days. The CR allows them to call this entire session one day, meaning that will never come to a vote. Good job, Chuckles. Congress is the same as the Russian Duma.
If you believe that, go listen to what AOC and Rick Wilson have to say about it. That should clarify it for you. The passing of this Republican bill will give Elon Musk and Trump permission to keep robbing the government to give tax cuts to the wealthy.
Or he’s just a coward and is unable to adjust to being the opposition party.
He has a chance to actually do something here and make a statement, and he once again defaults to “business as usual”, aka getting fucked over by Republicans…as if no one can see that coming
Totally agree. Use the power you have. Lifelong Democrat here. Do you not understand what’s happening, Senator? We are going down fast. At least slow them down!!!
Chuck wants a tax cut.
All this talk about DOGE cutting budgets, the CR saving money so that there's less interest on the debt...they are adding 1.6T dollars to the US Debt, with their billionaire tax cut. @cnn-news.bsky.social, @schumer.senate.gov
This man has done this before. In trump's first term, always voting against what his constituent wants and never votes for shutdown.Shut the bitch down, it's already shut down.
I'm gonna need all democrats to call chuck's office and raise hell! I don't care if you're not from New York. You can call anywhere from around the country, if you're a democrat and tell him to grow a fucking backbone!!
202-224-6542
It doesn’t matter. A *Congresswoman* can’t be the Senate minority leader, anymore than a Baptist minister can be the Pope. If Schumer, gods willing, resigns he will have to be replaced as Senate minority leader by a Senator.
I'm gonna need all democrats to call chuck's office and raise hell! I don't care if you're not from New York. You can call anywhere from around the country, if you're a democrat and tell him to grow a fucking backbone!!
202-224-6542
Sorry to jump on your reply but Chucky has muted me.
Literally the hardest have we have seen you work, Chuck, is watching break your back to bend over so 47 can break your back. 47 wants you, and we have no problem feeding you to him.
The reason is they dodnt want me asking them how they were going to stop 47’s end-run on the 14th amendment to declare Latino Americans as children of an invading army. Not one senator or rep has offered an answer.
I feel like we would be shooting ourselves in the foot! I agree schumer needs to go, but we can’t punish ALL democrats.
Is this a republican move?💙💔💙🇺🇦
No it’s not a Republican move and we won’t stop until he steps down or the Dem senators vote him out of his leadership role. Have you seen Chuck say we are not in a constitutional crisis? He is the last person we need.
I appreciate his service to the country, but no term limits allows these perspectives to continue to run our country, when we need new ideas and solutions. It is painfully apparent that the ideas that are not working, will continue not working until we get some new blood working on them. Term limits
They wil do this regardless. You’ve given away what little leverage you had for procedural bullshit that is no longer binding in Trump’s GOP. Chuck the Schmuck.
They’re like “we can’t shut down the government we gotta win the moderates” — meanwhile even the never trump republicans are like “this is super fucking dumb”
If we don’t enter a shutdown, the executive will weaponize the rest of government to oppress everyone and still do what you’re warning about you absolute potato.
Fuck off and retire already. You’re embarrassing and no better than Trump.
These people are so hopped up on a reject theory that'll provoke a POTUS v. SCOTUS constitutional crisis that they'd forfeit Congress's power of the purse rather than just pass a budget that sets spending ceilings for Trump and then approve his rescission requests for mandatory spending items.
They’re doing this already. You’re pissing away your only point of leverage. If you won’t lead, resign your position for more competent, strategic and brave Dems who will!
No, with all due respect, you are wrong. Please pay heed to what your constituents and the American people are saying loudly. No sane person wants you to pass this CR. Even a majority of the Federal workers who would be affected by a shutdown are asking you to stand up for them and not pass this CR
Vote no on cloture and the CR!!!This bill isn’t a clean resolution. It slashes Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security while handing more power to Trump. The largest federal workers’ union opposes it, and so should you. Do not betray the people who elected you. Hold the line and fight for democracy.
I'm gonna need all democrats to call chuck's office and raise hell! I don't care if you're not from New York. You can call anywhere from around the country, if you're a democrat and tell him to grow a fucking backbone!!
202-224-6542
They are weak- some are caving, and this is the ONLY leverage they have; they are giving it away- Democrats should do nothing to normalize MAGA. Trump is overthrowing our democracy, ignoring the judicial & legislative branches of government.
Never aid MAGA.
We are watching the demise of the US and half assed cherry picking by repubs just prolongs our horror, as we FEEL it happen. American are mad and disheartened; it's just too much. Have you given up? Disappointed, Chuck.
Shut it all down!
Chuck Koch and his network are funding efforts to privatize social security. While they have scrubbed the internet of the truth, I did find some information on their disaster in Chile:
Ok? So the answer is to let Trump and his cronys get whatever they want with no meaningful opposition and allow all of our social services to die in the next four years? Thanks for nothing
I'm gonna need all democrats to call chuck's office and raise hell! I don't care if you're not from New York. You can call anywhere from around the country, if you're a democrat and tell him to grow a fucking backbone!!
202-224-6542
No cloture! No spending money to Trump! You are giving him a blank check to do what he wants. He’s already dismantling the government! We need change! We need young congress! Get out of the way already! You are ruining us and there’s no going back.
You need to draw a line in the sand and say "enough is enough." Every time you roll over, get pushed around and look weak, the Republicans take this as a sign that they can continue the dismantling of our democracy. Fight back or please step aside!
Yes, yes, but I think it's pretty apparent that it would be needlessly convoluted to vote a House Representative as Senate Minority Leader. Also, no collection of senators will ever vote for a non-member to be leader of their caucus, so, there kinda is [an unofficial] rule.
Listen to the people you represent and vote NO. That’s literally your job! If you don’t have the spine to do your job, resign so someone else can. We deserve better than this self-serving cowardice!!!
I'm gonna need all democrats to call chuck's office and raise hell! I don't care if you're not from New York. You can call anywhere from around the country, if you're a democrat and tell him to grow a fucking backbone!!
202-224-6542
They are already doing this CR or no CR. The only difference is that now you are complicit and enabling. Real leaders make a stand not feeble excuses. But you wouldn’t know that. The people you lost tonight aren’t coming back in 2026.

“Chuck is the first cousin of Amy Schumer's father, rendering the comedian and politician first cousins, once removed. Long story short: They’re cousins.”
Shut the fuck about Palestine, no one cares. We wouldn’t be in this position if you idiots cared about what’s happening in your own goddamn country. You brainwashed idiot.
NO ONE CARES! You programmed idiot, you could spill a glass of water and cry about Israel. There are other issues in the world than fucking Palestine. You doomed the to be erased anyway. No one wants to hear your nonsense anymore.
Transgender and Palestine got the dems crushed. You better say my pronoun right... What the fuck does that even mean? I honestly didn't know that shit was going on. No wonder blue collar worker were so upset and went to the other side.
You care because Tik Tok fed that shit to your shrunken Brain 24/7. You agitated for the destruction of the people you claim to care about with your Abandon Harris nonsense. Get fucked.
Yesterday Schumer was a NO for cloture. Yesterday he knew voting no would give Trumpty Dumpty Humpty "the keys to the city, state, and country." Why did Schumer do a 180?

They are literally already illegally picking and choosing what they will fund and the government is already essentially shut down. Disgusting that you’re unwilling to try to save our democracy. History will remember what a feckless, gutless, cowardly small man you are. We will remember.
Sec. 4. Each day for the remainder of the first session of the 119th Congress shall not constitute a calendar day for purposes of section 202 of the National

national emergency declared by the Pres on Feb 1, 2025
FACTS. They're going to continue to defund and hurt everything they don't like. It's their whole agenda.
You know why he wants to pass the spending bill? Because the people who own him want it. Corporations just want the crank to keep turning. They don't care that it's a grinder being fed children.

Respect? For Schumer? Really? He's in Trump's pocket ffs. He's doing that on purpose. He's buying himself a golden ticket into the regime with this. He's a traitor and a Nazi collaborator.
i am so sick of weak ass old yt men unwilling to admit this just isn't their time. fuck off @chuckschumer for being such a suck up to fascism. shame on you for allowing this country to become an oligarchy because you are too weak to fight for justice and too proud to step aside for those who will
Which is what they are doing now. You need to step down. We need actual leaders in this moment. As a NY’er you will never get a donation from me again and I will vote for whoever primaries you.
The $194k a year he makes and all his wonderful benefits that HE gets is also your money.
Everyone should make it their mission to ensure he doesn't get that salary ever again.
The Republicans weaponize everything at all times. It's hard to swallow what the GOP is doing to us. It's absolutely devastating for it to come from our own party. You are too weak to lead. Step aside. I will not give another penny to the Dems.
You mean like they're already doing? When are you going to learn? They're going to blame Democrats no matter what. It's their entire plan for whenever literally anything goes badly for them. Wake up!
Exactly!! The government is already shut down. I'm going to need all democrats to call chuck's office and raise hell! I don't care if you're not from New York. You can call anywhere from around the country, if you're a democrat and tell him to grow a fucking backbone!!

You just allowed them to do whatever they want without an ounce of resistance. You couldn’t even force another vote to make them sweat, you just rolled over like a coward (I’d use another word that rhymes with itch, but you already know that). Pathetic

Fight for the people or make way for someone who can.

Man.
What the fuck.
Its staggering how wrong you can be.

filibuster - she's right, and you're wrong:
AOC: It is almost unthinkable why Senate Democrats would vote to to hand the few pieces of leverage that we have away for free when we've been sent here to protect social security, protect medicaid, and protect medicare.
Senator Murray:
It takes no imagination to consider how Trump would use the new authority he'd get from the House GOP slush fund bill to threaten and bully states across the country—you do what he says or he blows up your entire state budget. I will vote NO.
Do Not Cave To The Republicans!
Fight for us. Fight for us.
too afraid to lead, then RESIGN.

Fuck him! Retire you old turd!
IM GOING TO REMEMBER WHO FUCKED US
OVER. WHO LEFT US ON OUR OWN. WHO TURNED AWAY BECAUSE OF COWARDICE.
YOURE A DISGRACE TO EVERY RESISTER WHO BELIEVES IN FIGHTING.
YOUVE ABANDONED US. AND WE WONT FUCKING FORGET.
You'd meet a bag of bats in a side alley.
Don't you fuck us over like the asshole leading this regime vote no on the CR.
But you are giving them permission to continue.
Resign, you spineless f*ck.
202-224-6542
First criterion is "have a pulse." Schumer fails.
Unwarranted detention and torture of Green card holders. (Germany is very pissed about this.)
The Chamberlain Gambit is an excellent and apt moniker for this moment.
If you can't FIGHT for democracy, for the Constitution, for the American people, RESIGN.
If you can't unite your colleagues, RESIGN.
If you can't be a LEADER, RESIGN.
Do the right thing, Senator.
Vote "NO" or our days as donors to the Democratic Party are over.
If you can't get it together, consider retiring and letting someone with a spine take over.
You fucking cuck!
Does this look familiar? Do you remember what they did? Bet you don't.You're a lost cause
Now.
It is going to be terrible for you otherwise. Total backstabber.
So Schumer can't play that card tomorrow. He must vote NO AND LET THE COURTS FIGHT MUSK/DJT
A yes vote is giving in to the chaos.
Chuck Schumer couldn't fight his way out of a paper bag armed with a flamethrower and a machete.
At least shut it down and put up a fight!

I liked Stonekettle's post that if only Schumer would be against the GOP as strongly as he is now being with Dem constituents.

Real leaders listen. You don't.
Cannot swallow your appetite for power to make The Felon eat a shut down. DO YOUR JOB AND WE WILL DO OURS
Please stop trying to scare us with your multiple excuses. You’re only demonstrating your weakness and your lack of leadership.
You might not win this fight but it’s so important to fight it anyway.

You are wrong, Chuck. Rethink this course of action before it's too late.
When his moment came, he blinked and puckered up.
202-224-6542
My gap here is, with the CR the GOP can also cherry pick, divert funding, even against federal courts' rulings.
So there must be a difference in the extent, for CR vs shutdown. Would be good if leaders can elaborate on that.
DO
NOT
SUMBIT IN
ADVANCE
THE PEOPLE ARE IN THE STREETS
LISTEN.
Courage is doing the right thing even when you’re afraid.
Chuck, stop being a coward
Not sure about how that plays out in voting.
Trump/Musk are already gutting agencies, so what if they get to decide who is essential.
GOP could advance bills to open up select parts of gov. As opposed to what happened with USAID? If they do that we vote them down.
Schumer said Dems would have no recourse to reverse anything and that basically not shutting down was the lesser of two evils.
That’s what I heard…

Maybe Mitch will switch sides and help the cowering democrats.
He has a chance to actually do something here and make a statement, and he once again defaults to “business as usual”, aka getting fucked over by Republicans…as if no one can see that coming
All this talk about DOGE cutting budgets, the CR saving money so that there's less interest on the debt...they are adding 1.6T dollars to the US Debt, with their billionaire tax cut. @cnn-news.bsky.social, @schumer.senate.gov

Literally the hardest have we have seen you work, Chuck, is watching break your back to bend over so 47 can break your back. 47 wants you, and we have no problem feeding you to him.
Is this a republican move?💙💔💙🇺🇦
I stopped giving them a dime
Let’s keep the heat on 💙
Fuck off and retire already. You’re embarrassing and no better than Trump.
The main decision for fighting vs giving up is demonstrating whether anyone in power will even try to fight.
And you're giving a resounding "no, nobody will resist"
VOTE NO!!
Also, cut the B.S.. It's not even believable.

Never aid MAGA.
We are watching the demise of the US and half assed cherry picking by repubs just prolongs our horror, as we FEEL it happen. American are mad and disheartened; it's just too much. Have you given up? Disappointed, Chuck.
Shut it all down!
Tell us, Chuckles, was it cash, or did they have something on you all of a sudden ?
Weren't you jumping up and down chanting We will win now. You're on your knees, wiping that smORANGE stain off your lips
202-224-6542
Chuck is a traitorous piece of shit. Appeasement has never worked.
Put Jasmine Crockett in or really anyone with an actual spine.

That's about it for Chucky boy. His ugly niece is on board with that too
I'm sure you know that.
But I'm also reminding you.
“Chuck is the first cousin of Amy Schumer's father, rendering the comedian and politician first cousins, once removed. Long story short: They’re cousins.”

Zionism fucking sucks by the way.
"genocide" but what the israelis are doing in Palestine isn't. I guess that's lib brain for ya.
Focusing on socially liberal bullshit lost the dems votes.
Not giving a shit about the genocide also lost the dems votes.

You know why he wants to pass the spending bill? Because the people who own him want it. Corporations just want the crank to keep turning. They don't care that it's a grinder being fed children.
They are ALREADY doing this ILLEGALLY.
By voting for cloture you will ENABLE them to do it under the law.
All due respect, Senator, but you need to seriously consider stepping down if you do not see what is needed in this moment.
You are handing us to a blossoming dictatorship.
202-224-6542
or we will shut down every senator who votes for cloture. No donations and primary y'all out!
