Once again, how is there not a single Senate Democrat calling for Schumer to step aside as he negotiates away Dem leverage in preparation to completely fold on DHS?
Going to repeat that one of the underrated forces of moderation in the Dem Party is that nobody has any ambition. If this were Republicans, there would have been 5 attempts to oust Jeffries already. But Dems stay loyal to the country club.
I have yet to see any of the House Dems who voted against DHS funding condemn their 7 colleagues who voted for it, or call out leadership for failing to whip up a unified front of opposition.

I feel like maybe Jeffries and Schumer could try and stop the evil. In fact must try.

Schumer leads the Ds in the wimpiest positioning ever. "When it comes to federal agents entering homes without a warrant or refusing to identify themselves, is it even possible to find a halfway position that makes any sense, as opposed to simply demanding that those actions and behaviors stop?"

The talk is that King Donald the Mad seeks to overturn the 2020 result by "proving" he won in Georgia.
In reality, Georgia had just 16 electoral votes. Take them away from Biden and he still has 290. He only needed 270.
It's more about trying to fix the NEXT election, which he won't live to see.

Two weeks of terror. That’s what Schumer agreed to.

Some law school negotiations professor should invite Schumer in to do a lesson and at the end just say “you heard everything the Senator told you today, do the exact opposite of that”
🚨 The Senate has agreed to a deal to vote on 5/6 full appropriations bills and replace the DHS funding measure with a 2-week stopgap bill, per multiple sources. That gives time to negotiate on the Dem demands for ICE and CBP restraints.

Schumer's office is saying that they have an agreement. Now the big question is (and I'm not kidding) is if the vote will happen tonight or tomorrow or if Republican Senators will come back tonight after going to the Melania premiere.
