@benroyce@mastodon.socialFuck #Schumer
Nobody is normalizing or accepting Schumer the spineless turd
The problem is arguments to not #vote and give us #Trump
That choice matters more than your point
Meanwhile, until #midterms #midterms2026, we #primaries2026 the fuck out of these centrist milquetoast centrist corporatist shit dems
And if someone doesn't vote in the #primaries?
Then they can shut the fuck up because actions speak louder than words on their supposed ideals
Show the fuck up #America
Fight!
I do hope #Schumer isn't talking about erections...
“The Republicans would like to have some freedom from Trump, but they won’t until we bring him down in popularity... I am hopeful that our Republican colleagues will resume working with us. And I talk to them. One of the places is in the gym. When you’re on that bike in your shorts, panting away next to a Republican, a lot of the inhibitions come off.”
100%! #Schumer is a failure and a coward.

@clankgy1@infosec.exchange@QasimRashid Both Chuck and Amy are doing their best to defile the #Schumer surname. Embarrassing.
3 major security concerns:
1. He screwed up,
2. He knows he screwed up, and
3. Everyone else knows he screwed up.
Eggs are a bit expensive to throw, but tomatoes are still fairly cheap. Just sayin'.

@advisorybriefs@mas.toChuck #Schumer voted with the GOP to screw over Americans, then apologizes...to the Republicans?!? #DumpSchumer call your senators and tell them he needs to #resign
@tagesschau
Jedes Mal ein riesengroßer Wirbel und am Ende werden sie sich doch immer einig. Schade, dass #Schumer klein beigegeben hat.

"Schumer argued that #Democrats would ultimately lose a #shutdown #fight."
So why bother to #fightBack at all?

#Pelosi has issued a statement against following #Schumer's lead.
Congress has the “false choice between a shutdown or a blank check,” Pelosi wrote. “Neither is a good option. But this false choice some are buying instead of fighting is unacceptable."

"Schumer broke 2 prime rules of politics for leaders. 1st, don’t defy your own troops. More importantly, when you have the votes, as Schumer did, don’t capitulate w/o getting something in return."
-D Dayen
The only ones who strongly favored giving Trump what he wanted were Schumer’s toady, K Gillibrand of NY, & J Fetterman of PA. With 53 Rs in the Senate *R Paul -opposes the CR, it'd take 8 Dems to pass cloture. #Schumer
decided to defy the maj. of his own caucus.

"#Schumer sent… #Democrats into fits of rage… by announcing that he would vote to allow… #Republicans to pass the stopgap #CR.
Democrats have pushed for language in the bill to stop #DOGE from cutting congressionally approved spending, but Schumer argued that Democrats would ultimately lose a shutdown fight"

"A shutdown would allow #DOGE to shift into overdrive. Let me repeat, a shutdown will allow DOGE to shift into overdrive. It would give Donald #Trump and DOGE the keys to the city, state and country," he said. "Donald Trump and Elon #Musk would be free to destroy vital government services at a much faster rate than they can right now and over a much broader field of destruction that they would render."
UNBELIEVABLY, Chuck #Schumer is voting YES with republicans on the CR/funding bill. All Dems and Inds should be voting NO on cloture and NO on the CR/funding bill!
I just sent a message here, letting him know what I think: https://www.schumer.senate.gov/contact/message-chuck
I am not a #NY constituent, but as #Senate Minority Leader, he represents and is accountable to ALL of us.
U.S. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer says he'll vote to keep government open in move criticized by some fellow Democrats.
