The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it.
Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.

There are very few energy sources in the deep sea to support biology. Seeps (hot and cold) are one of the primary ones, forming local hotspots. The cold seeps form pokemarks, which can expand into channels if a current catches them. 🧪🌊
