Hey @schumer.senate.gov

Democrats are “considering” forcing clerks to read the entire megabill on the floor?!

This shouldn’t be optional. Force the full bill reading.

No more “I didn’t know what was in it” excuses. Make every Senator sit through it and own it.
@housedemocrats.bsky.social
DEMOCRATS—hell yes, do it‼️

Force the full bill reading on the floor. No more Senators pretending they didn’t know what was in it when they voted.

📌 Senate Dems may make clerks read the entire budget bill out loud. Good. People want fight—this is one way to show it.

The estimated cost of the unnecessary troop mobilization to Los Angeles ($134M) would have funded gender-affirming care in the military for the next 26 years. The trans military ban was never about funding.

It can be true both that: the hiding/denial of Joe Biden’s mental and physical condition going into 2024 is a major story, b/c contributed to the Dem defeat in 2024, which is the reason for Everything Happening Now, and…

That the current President’s mental health is also an important story.

I’m forcing a vote to end Trump’s chaotic trade war.

It’s time for Republicans in Congress to decide if they’ll do their jobs and stand up for the American people alongside Democrats, or if they’ll fall on the ground and kiss the hem of Trump's britches.

I'm calling for an investigation into Trump's reckless tariff policy.

It’s incoherent. And it’s driving up costs for working families.

If Biden or Obama or Clinton or any Democrat seriously floated the idea of running for a third term as president, the GOP would immediately hold congressional hearings and threaten impeachment. It would dominate rightwing media for months.

What will Mr. Schumer's response be? Probably silence.

PSA: there are not “methods” for Donald Trump to serve a third term and anyone who tells you otherwise is a motherfucking idiot.
