What they get paid as public servants is a very tiny percentage of their revenue. They get paid more through insider trading, dark money, lobbyists, media outlets, book deals, and speaking engagements.

I’m looking forward to that. Johnson had an evil plan to keep the house adjourned until December 2. After a special election to replace a dead republican. So both she and a Republican would be sworn in raising the threshold for the discharge petition by one. This would make the petition one short.

It’s not just me speculating. Tonight Jon Stewart said the exact same thing. About how all eight are coincidentally, not up for reelection next year. m.youtube.com/watch?v=eFI6...

These 8 Democrats and one independent need some kneepads.

Long-term yes but short term we need to relentlessly demand Chuck Schumer step down as minority leader.

No, that was Tim Walz who was Harris‘s pick. So if you’re a woman running for president, don’t pick a guy named Tim, that’s the lesson. Just kidding.

He had to cancel his book tour to avoid a Republican Townhall like spectacle. That that’s why despite being instrumental to this deal, he voted no. But don’t take my word for it. Listen to the 8 senators.

This is the second time Schumer has folded on our healthcare this year. The first time he folded was when he and those 11 Democrats voted to allow the big beautiful bill to be a reconciliation bill making it impossible to filibuster. The backlash was so bad he had to cancel his book tour.

The reason it’s so obvious even without their own statements look at who was picked to vote. Everyone is either retiring or isn’t up reelection until 2028 or 2030. This is a common tactic to limit the electoral consequences.

Here’s some additional proof. There was no big push from leadership not to do this. “We kept leadership informed throughout.” There was no resistance no pushback quite the contrary leadership encouraged it. Schumer has done this before.
