    Schumer is a deer in the headlights at this point. If we’re being generous, he’s useless. If we’re being honest, he’s a fascist enabler. And fascist enablers are fascists with extra steps.

      I’m going to say something controversial to some of us: It’s because Jewish people are the fascists this time around. Israel is a militarized police and tech surveillance state whose leader will be ousted if the war stops so he went on the offensive. Chuck is receiving money from AIPAC and doesn’t want the campaign cash to stop so he’s looking the other way while the fascists take over.

        Every Jewish person I know is opposed to aid for Israel, supporting their genocide and very vocally supportive of Gaza/palestine and very critical of Israel-the-country

        It’s not that he’s Jewish. He’s just a prick.

            I’ll pass it along, but I can tell you they’re going to be a bit confused and say “it’s just the bare minimum,” or “it’s just the right thing to do.”

            (that was their response when I expressed my own gratitude and appreciation.)

            It’s telling how people in the imperial core generally can’t distinguish between judaism and zionism. That’s how deeply ingrained the indoctrination and propaganda goes. The widespread conflation of judaism and zionism is a completely normalized form of anti-semitism.

              And it is intentionally pushed by Israeli PACs.

        Elections need to be publicly funded. Money in politics is the source of America’s decline.

        There’s no time left for voting them out. We’ve already had our last free and fair election.

        This is Hakeem Jeffries erasure.

        See also: Durbin, Cuellar, Clyburn, Hoyer, the entire Blue Dog Coalition, King, Coons, Klobuchar, Tester, Rosen, Hassan, Peters, to just name a few of the feckless Dems (and one independent Senator who caucuses with Dems but often votes with the fascists) who still value “bipartisanship” over the wellbeing of the people they’re pretending to represent.
