Mehdi is absolutely right. These people are weak feckless people who have zero fight in them. In their soul they when faced with fight or flight, they pick flight every damn time.
"[Chuck Schumer] shouldn't be minority leader, and he shouldn't be in the Senate to begin with."
In the latest Ask the Editor, @mehdirhasan.bsky.social calls out Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer for caving to Republicans on the government shutdown and discusses who could primary him.

According to reports Ossoff was an initial yes but flipped because he’s one of the few up for reelection in 2026.
If you believe it was just 8 senators I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you. This was a Schumer operation.

Well if he pinky promised I guess it’s all ok…..🙄 quit in disgrace @durbin.senate.gov
Whoa -- Sen. Durbin went to up Leader Thune during the vote last night to tell him that on the shutdown vote and ACA promise that "8 of us are sticking our neck out that you're going to keep your word. I hope you will. He said 'I assure you I will,'" Durbin says just now

Fire @schumer.senate.gov!
The Democrats are gonna try to spin this as 8 rogue senators. This is a Schumer op.

Fire @schumer.senate.gov!
@schumer.senate.gov was the first “yes” vote by giving the 8 his blessing.
Please don’t think this beltway game of having retiring Dem senators vote yes while everyone else votes no is going to shield leadership from the end result. We see what is happening and can’t be fooled by those games.

These 8 + @schumer.senate.gov deserve the hate and anger directed at them today. It needs to be louder than the hate we give maga. These 9 betrayed the American people and got in bed with the pedophile in Chief. They are either corrupt or cowards. Either way, they should be shamed enough to resign.

Spoiler alert: that’s why people voted for him over Cuomo. They said fuck the 1% and their entitlement to the ear of politicians.
Canadian multimillionaire and Shark Tank guy Kevin O'Leary went on TV to say he's upset Zohran won't talk to him: "I and others who invest in real estate have tried to get a meeting to figure out what's rhetoric and what's policy. So far for me it's been crickets."

They spent more money than Mayor Mamdani’s tax proposal would levy against them.
The anti-Muslim billionaires like Mike Bloomberg spent millions to defeat Zohran and lost. That brings me joy! 😀

The Trump regime knows how dumb and gullible #MAGA is.
“Jobs are booming” is Treasury Secretary-speak for “most-announced-job-cuts-for-a-full-year-since-2020.”
“Inflation is falling” is Treasury Secretary-speak for “inflation-is-at-an-eight-month-high.”

@schumer.senate.gov voted for the sex abuser and is scared of his constituents OR he voted for Mamdani and is scared of his donors. Either way, he’s a coward and should quit. An absolute failure as a leader.
Chuck Schumer's office declines to say who he voted for

I’m glad I’m not the only one who remembers the ridiculous 12 gallon a week lady. The press wanted Trump back . They were relentlessly attacking democrats for 4 years. Always complaining, and for it to stop overnight is only more evidence of their desire to have Trump back.
wondering if cnn will cover the trump starvation victims with all the zeal it covered people buying massive quantities of milk under biden slate.com/business/202...
Yes, 12 Gallons a Week Is a Ton of Milk
Even if you have nine children and are the subject of an irresponsible segment on CNN.

No money for healthcare. No money for SNAP. No money for helping Americans. But definitely money to turn the people’s house into his personal shitty gold plated palace. Knowing Trump that “marble” is a cheap laminate veneer.

JD Vance and Erika Kirk look to be very familiar with each other. Some people are even saying they are VERY familiar with each other. Will we see a future news story about Usha getting dumped along with their children for Erika? I dunno. I’m just asking questions folks.
