They literally laughed about not picking up phones to stop a genocide and y’all thought they would stop your own?
Progressive groups are calling for Chuck Schumer's ouster after centrist Dems' shutdown cave. Dem senators' phone lines are "exploding" with the same demands. So far, Senate Dems don't have a ton to say.

Furious Liberals Call for Schumer to Step Aside, Senate Dems Mostly Quiet
After their shutdown surrender, liberal lawmakers are begging their base to unite behind them anyway – as Trumpland celebrates that their opposition is a bunch of 'p*ssies.'

I don’t care who you are, the one thing that links all of the -isms and bigotries together and sets them on fire is eugenics and ableism.
They’ve been playing you all the entire time. There is no progress in this country for ANYTHING without equity for disabled people.

Imani has some scathingly accurate videos on how the Dems caved on healthcare (and will continue to do so) because 1) they'll be using it for midterms and 2) private equity is set to make trillions off of us since Covid mass-disabled this country. It pisses me off, bc I can see it.
By the way, this has been the Democrats party for decades. They’ve skated by for years on this “at least we’re not republicans” bullshit, meanwhile enabling them at every turn.
This is just the time during which you can ill afford their feckless ways.

And I've been doing politics for long enough to know clearly that the entire Senate Democratic caucus agreed to this decision to fold. Open your eyes. The 8 who "broke" did so with the complete blessing of Schumer and their colleagues. You don't have to play along because this is not a game. The end

If you’re one of the people trying to say Democrats have some super secret plan to best Republicans, then you’re the only one who’s been fooled.

A lot of you talk about Schumer like he's a hapless fool, but he's not. He's a Harvard gangster overseeing mass atrocities while running out the legislative clock and maximizing shareholder value without being held accountable by the public. Charles is a master of his craft.

“Able-bodied” may sound like a medical determination, but, as disability activist @imanibarbarin.bsky.social says, it’s really just a vague way “to signal this idea that disability can be seen.”
