The thing about removing Schumer as leader: none of the others want the job, nor would they have done anything differently in his place.

He's Independent

Everything else aside, you just don't want people with judgment like this representing you

So they've finished removing all republicans from the epstein files

The Gang taking off the villain's mask

Do you mean... Old Man Schumer has been working for the Republicans the whole time?

Wake me up when she appoints replacements for both NY senators

Mike Johnson says a lot of things. He does what trump wants.

I hope everybody understands that no Democrat will be sworn in to the House ever again

imagine dooming millions to suffering misery and death because you want your thanksgiving flight to be on time

demanding resignation works too i guess

Do any of those states have a recall process for removing sitting Senators?

They don't care if you live or die

The next steps will be Dem leaders aggressively lying about what they are agreeing to. Just be aware that they know they are getting nothing, that was always the plan.

The next Senator from New York

Any one of these people could make the choice to have a world-class crashout. Grab headlines and make it take a month to work through their obstruction.

Does this require the House coming back into session and voting on it?

If i'm understanding this right, the deal would be for the Senate to pass what already passed the House, them staying out of session and not releasing Epstein files is part of it

See you in another life, brotha

because... they like trump and want to help him?

"we can just do the symbolic vote thing again right?"

their end goal is to give republicans what they want with minimal fallout from their own voters

The next steps will be Dem leaders aggressively lying about what they are agreeing to. Just be aware that they know they are getting nothing, that was always the plan.

This is all being done to fund a Nazi regime run by a pedophile, by the way. Democrats have no issue funding a modern Gestapo and a network of concentration camps. They don't care if his victims ever get justice.

Schumer's only move is this exact play, caving for a symbolic vote doomed to failure. Specifically designed to give Dem members cover from their voters, who they assume are stupid enough to buy it.

This is what they want. The party can't be salvaged.

They are doing this because this is what they want. They want to give up all of their leverage and they are fully aware that the "promise" is a lie.

This is what they want.

But people get upset when you say both parties are the same...

Reminder that the rest of Senate Dems like Schumer and his leadership style. They will never replace him voluntarily.
