Here are the heroes…

Stay focused, this is a game like Collins and Murkowski taking turns being "independent". The real question is what to Chuck Schumer do to try to keep them in line.

While we're all focused on the odious eight, its important to ask what Chuck Schumer did to keep them in line? Well probably nothing. As someone else noted, this was a put up job, allowing opprobrium to fall the soon to be retired, equivalent to Collins and Murkowski pretending to be independent.

Thank you for effing trying and staying principled. Its pretty obvious that Schumer let the seven take the hit because he had no stomach for actually fighting.

Miserable failures almost all of them. I think my own Maryland Senators stood up though.

You are my senator and I'm proud of you for trying to stand tall. Thanks for your courage. I only wish it was more widespread among Senate Democrats.

You're making the assumption we'll have elections next year. Capitulation now makes it less likely. What was the point, if you were just going to give up?

What a disappointment you've been. Handmaiden to another Democratic capitulation and getting nothing in return. Shame.

Maybe you could have resigned earlier and spared us the spectacle of another cowardly Democrat.

the House will have to come back in session to pass the changed version so we can get back to the real important stuff like the Epstein files and maybe seeing Mike Johnson removed as speaker.
