It doesn't actually matter if Chuck Schumer votes for this or not.
If he can't keep his caucus unified to protect healthcare for over 10 million Americans, he should resign as leader.

I’m not proud of this in any way but I had no idea about the boarding school atrocities until the Deer Lady origin episode of Reservation Dogs. No bullshit I couldn’t stop crying for 15 minutes after the episode finished.

Vance speaking about “widespread child sacrifice” in the Americas when colonizers arrived - while graveyards FULL of Native children at church boarding schools are still being found - is the epitome of hypocrisy.
Remember.

They’re shutting down the government and holding hungry people hostage, because they want to make more money off of sick and dying people.
And they call US “terrorists” for protesting against that.
Remember that. Remember all of this.
