  1. GOOD. Cast out the trash Vichy Dems and fascist enablers like Fetterman and Chucklefuck

  3. Get him out of office. Old politicians like him are out of touch with the Democratic Party. He’s basically a Republican, he bows to Trump and waves the white flag.

  4. Leadership needs to be purged, the entire wretched structure needs to be torn down and rebuilt from the ground up.

  6. Maybe this will be the schism that leads to progressive democratic progress.

  8. Pacifism isn’t paying off and hasn’t been for years, it’s time to get loud.

  9. Good they need to fucking fight. They need to be more afraid of us than Trump and Elon. If they had that fear and Wall Street and businesses had that fear, it would be Trump who? We need to band together and rise up!!!!! Alone we are small but together we are massive and can over power them

  10. I – for one – am so incredibly relieved Chuck Schumer has decided to vote with Republicans on this one. 

    It’s restored Dem’s image of being spineless, sniveling losers. 

    It’s also led to today’s 1.8% jump in the S&P500, which will more than foot the bill for the future when I have to support my parents in their retirement when social security and medicare are gutted. 

    Thank you, Chuck! Truly a coward of the people! 

  11. Replace him as minority leader, and then primary his ass if he won’t retire. He’s long past his prime, and clearly has no spine or fight in him.

  12. Democtats need to focus on action. Al Green and “Good Trouble” had the right idea. You are the minority opposition party. Act like it!!!

  13. Really don’t have much to lose politically by voting against the CR and pushing for a clean CR. No voter is gonna hold them accountable come 2026 for allowing a shutdown. They will, however, be held accountable for voting for the partisan CR. I hope Chuck finds his balls and does the right thing.

  14. I really hope AOC primaries him!

    His form of politicking got us to where we’re at now.

    Too many corporate democrats like him are beholden to dark money from the elite and are not doing the job.

    Even the last decent thing he did – pushing Biden to debate early – was too late!

    Yes, it worked in putting Bidens’ age on display because he *eventually* stood down, but damn Kamala had a narrow time frame and was HATED by right.

    If Chuck & Democratic leadership we’re effective, they would’ve pushed Biden stick to his 1 term promiss and would’ve given the party ample time to hold a primary.

    No, it took doners cutting off funding for the DNC to act.

    I think we’re at that same point with Chucklefuck voting to allow what is happening to continue.

    I recommend we stop giving to Democrats and the DNC donations if they won’t listen to the people.

    Use your money to support the small minority doing the right thing.

  15. If the situation was reversed, Republicans would have shut down the government.

    I’m tired of people who were born literally before the Berlin wall was built, running the party and country.

  16. these old, scared, sleepy democrats need to be tossed out. Don’t need to be replaced with demagogues, but at least someone with a little fight.

  17. Chuck Schumer seems about as effective as a “can’t we just keep the peace” middle school guidance counselor. So does Jeffries for that matter. And Fetterman. Can the Dems please get rid of the sad dads at the dinner table and put the AOCs and Crocketts in charge?

  18. He folded like a cheap men’s warehouse suit.

    Tried of this crap, get rid of him and give us a leader with a fire in their belly, a heart for justice, a loud voice and a freakin’ spine.

    We’re not asking for much.

  19. The fact that they can lose the Senate and Schumer keeps the top job is mind boggling. He needs to step aside because he failed to win the Senate, he failed to help defeat Trump and his list of failures is growing every chance he gets. And I’m saying this as someone who more or less likes (liked now?) Cuck Schumer in the past and thought he was a good choice after Reid to lead the Democrats in the Senate. We desperately need new leadership.

  20. Chuck Schumer should retire immediately. He is unfit to represent the Democratic Party. You know he is awful when Trump “Thanked” Schumer this morning before the CR vote. Why? Because Schumer is working with Trump and Elon Musk to destroy Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security. Did Trump and Schumer recently have dinner together? If so, what did those two discussed? Schumer should flush his head in the toilet.

  21. He fears a government shutdown so he caves in to people *actively working to shut down and destroy that same government* – so what in the world does he think he is protecting (other than his “leadership” role… temporarily)?

    It’s like some arsonists threaten to burn down Schumer’s house with just a match unless he hands them a can of gasoline.  So what does Schumer decide to do?  Why, hand over the can of gasoline to the arsonists “to save his house”, of course.  

    Is he really that delusional, or does he really have that much contempt for his constituents?

  22. Good, let’s get the republican enablers out of the party once and for all. I don’t know about anyone else, but I know that I’m sure sick as hell of them!

  23. This is so goddamn embarrassing. These clowns can’t even unite against TRUMP??? Who is taking a wrecking ball to the country?

  24. So many people told Dems that this is who their party was, and they just keep being right time and time again.

  25. If I was Chuck Schumer and Donald Trump thanked me for doing something I would take that as a pretty clear sign that I was doing the wrong thing.

  26. Hi lowly constituent here 👋 

    Why aren’t y’all shouting outside of the closed doors? 🤨

  27. just when we thought Jeffries was bad. Schumer is being downright diabolical

  28. It’s time for a changing of the guard. The Democratic Party needs to grow a backbone.

  29. The entirity of Democratic leadership failed. They had 4 years to prevent this, and they failed. Now, we have to fight back from under the thumb of creeping fascism because they failed. Their failure is starting to look like capitulation. We don’t need spineless people in charge of anything.

  30. Schumer is somehow worth over 80 million only being a senator, brags he uses a flip phone, and didn’t know what a podcast was. He talks to his imaginary friends (two middle class people who are socially liberal but hate taxes the most). I wish I was making that up but I’m not.

    He’s useless and the absolute wrong person to be leading this fight. Hell, even Jeffries is right about this. He needs to be removed from leadership. Anyone considering to vote for this is a republican. They are Neville Chamberlin. NOW is the time to have the fight to try to stop trumps power grab. Once he gets more hooks and cronies in how will he be stopped? Schumer is giving up all his leverage for nothing. Trump and musk are going to do what Schumer is scared of regardless. Its infuriating and pathetic

  31. Good! We wouldn’t be in this mess in the first place if the inept and corrupt Dem “Leadership” had let Bernie win the nomination in 2016. They deserve everything that’s coming their way. 

  32. Just rename the Democratic Party the Doormat or the Dormant Party and be done with it. It’s a fitting description either way.

  33. Fuck Dick Durbin for voting yes. Illinois does not support Nazis. Have you forgotten the Blues Brothers? I hope your ass gets primaried. And yes I have emailed you before and after.

  34. I’m a progressive and been voting liberal for a long time. But the democrats has always been ran by old out of date idiots that think decorum and “debate” will help them win.

    Look at Newsom, he’s inviting insane far right people on his podcast and he’s trying to get right wing votes for his 2028 run. These idiots don’t get it.

    People. Don’t. Want. To. Vote. For. GOP-Lite.

  35. For everyone’s info, Cuck Schumer is doing a book tour in next week. Let’s them tell him what we think about his latest betrayal.

  36. That this internal turmoil is happening is actually a good thing – the people who actually care about protecting and serving the people are doing their jobs and calling out those in power for NOT doing their jobs while actively working to change their minds and convince them to fulfill their duty.

    The correct-minded Dems see an internal problem and are working to fix it. Can’t say I’d think the same for the Republicans who are usually fighting about who didn’t go as low as their contemporaries wanted.

  37. We will remember which “Democrats” funded the Nazi Regime in America and abandoned their oath to the American people and constitution.

  38. This is why people hate Democrats. They are only good at one thing…and that’s losing. Chuck and these 9 other shit-stains should be ousted from Congress. History will look at these cowards unfavorably. When FUCKING RAND PAUL votes better than you do, REEVALUATE YOURSELF. Tired of this bullshit.

  39. Chuck Schumer and the Vichy Dems that voted with him think we’re as stupid as the MAGA cult. But he’s got another thing coming. Dint fuck with smart people with money and motivation.

  40. FDR fucking ran this country. He won so often and so decisively they had to change the laws to stop him from running again. This is in fucking 40s. Don’t tell me we are more conservative than when black people couldn’t drink the same water as other people.

    Moving to the right again isn’t going to work. The party of FDR needs to return to him and his policies
