@schumer.senate.gov If you vote for cloture you are a stain on this country’s history that will never go away. You are willingly passing power to a tyrant in waiting, and you are a disgrace to every oath of office any senator has ever sworn. Your legacy will be one of cowardice and contempt.

Happening now: protesters are outside the Fine Arts Building on Michigan Avenue in downtown Chicago this evening.
People are in line to see House of Reps Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries for an event tonight promoting his recently released book.
Crowd chanting at them, "we don't need a book tour!"
