Dick Durbin an underrated architect-through-ineptitude of our present era
look at what this leadership did with oversight powers of SCOTUS in the middle of multiple devastating scandals for the conservatives. look at the half assed impeachments and half-assed oversight during the teens.

Trump to air traffic controllers: "For those that did nothing but complain, and took time off, even though everyone knew they would be paid, IN FULL, shortly into the future, I am NOT HAPPY WITH YOU. You didn’t step up to help the U.S.A. against the FAKE DEMOCRAT ATTACK"

this is excellent three-dimensional chess. every good politician knows that the average person loves it when you openly care more about senate procedure than their lives.

I hate thinking about my own problems when folks are being kidnapped off the street, but ACA subsidy cuts will make my life a lot harder. And that's true for almost every freelancer and creative you follow.
None of this is fucking necessary. It's all a choice, and I will never forgive it.

Under Schumer's leadership, eight Democrats (Cortez Masto, Durbin, Fetterman, Hassan, Kaine, King, Rosen, & Shaheen) joined the Republicans in moving forward a bill to reopen the government without ACA subsidies—Dems' stated key aim—or any other real concessions from the status before the shutdown.
