Deal? What deal? Full capitulation is not a deal? Please, unite a coalition to oust Schumer. He has to go. All the momentum we thought was gained Tuesday is squandered. The people who have been fighting are pissed.

The Democratic Party proves again that it is weak and not up for the fight. So disappointing after the best night the party has had in a long time on Tuesday. All of it squandered and for nothing. Retire now please.

Schumer can be removed from his Dem leadership role this week - 23 Dems (and/or independents) just have to vote to depose him

And they should, given this is his fault.

Senator Schumer, Even if you are voting no, you are the leader who needs to have your caucus hold the line. We hold you responsible. Your party is weak and not up for the fight that is needed.

Thank you Senator Smith. We are irate with the Democratic Party. The party shows again they are weak and not up for the fight that is needed. After Tuesday, how could this group of eight do this?

It’s important to note this was a procedural action, not a ruling on the merits of the underlying case. Justice Jackson wasn’t siding with the Trump administration; she was making sure the legal process unfolded correctly and fairly.

Imagine, having a strategic reserve already in place for funding SNAP exactly for the purpose of a government shutdown, then denying its use.

Then, imagine government interfering in small business saying it is illegal to offer discounts to help SNAP recipients.

I cannot.

Q: β€œMost hospitals + people who will lose insurance are in rural areas. If Trump & Republicans are so intent on sticking it to their own voters, why not let them?”

Here’s the thing: Once you give up the idea that we are all equal before the law and have the right to due process, you have given up the whole game. You have admitted the principle that some people have more rights than others. Once you have replaced the principle of equality before the law with the idea that some people have no rights, you have granted your approval to the idea of an authoritarian government. At that point, all you can do is to hope that the dictator and his henchmen overlook you.

Bukele has already returned migrants to the U.S. because they were from Central America or they were womenβ€”migrants the Trump admin had unilaterally declared as β€œcriminals.”

This is all a joke to them. It’s truly sick.
