Schumer and Durbin have to go. In a profiles in courage moments they both crumbled. We need new leadership that will stand up to Trump not for a day, not for a week but forever. They have proven they are not those people. And when people tell you who they are, believe them.

@cardinals.com Are you afraid of blue sky or is it just your incapable of putting a coherent sentence together so you're more comfortable on Facebook?

If usually we only see tipping points afterwards. For instance citizens united was a tipping point to where elections could be bought by rich individuals spending up seeing amounts of money.

We are now at what I consider another tipping point. Where bullying is going to be the way of the future.

It's always right to try and terrorize the second largest economy in the world with the second largest population in the world. Oh and when that is a nuclear power. I swear to God this is the dumbest president we've ever had.

We are taking huge steps backwards. To a country that thinks the empathy and caring are weaknesses. To a country that takes a blind side to people being deported without due process.

@durbin.senate.gov @schumer.senate.gov

My parents taught me that you have to stand up to bullies. You tried appeasement and pretend that it's because it's the best deal you can get. The reality is the bully will just become more bullying. We are reaping what you sowed.

@durbin.senate.gov @schumer.senate.gov

I cannot see how either of them can survive as leaders. They no longer have the moral high ground. They also have no courage to stand up against Donald Trump.

The sooner they go the better.

@durbin.senate.gov @schumer.senate.gov

Part of the responsibility for these deportations that are taking place is on you. You appease the dictator and now we are sewing the results of your cowardice.

"Let's take a look at history, and how you lose your republics."

Senator Merkley properly frame Schumer's cave on the CR as an existential crisis for the United States.
Merkley: "Right now we have acquiescence from the House Republicans, from the Senate Republicans. The House Democrats don't have leverage. We are the ones -- the Senate Democrats -- who have leverage to say no."

@duckworth.senate.gov Please stand up against Chuck Schumer and his attempts to destroy the Democratic Party. We need to stand up against the terrorist Trump. We do not need to capitulate. Eric Sorenson cast a courageous vote against it in the house and Schumer is spitting on it.
March 14, 2025 at 2:56 PM
@durbin.senate.gov Please stand up for the people in vote against the cloture motion. The senate minority leader has shown he lacks a spine and needs to be removed. Eric Sorenson voted against it in the house with a courageous vote because he's at a swing district. Help!

If Gavin Newsome is the nominee of the party in 2028 I'm sitting the election out. I want you to realize that I am being positive tonight, because I really think there won't be an election by 2028.

Trump and Musk are like Robin Hood and Friar Tuck. Except they steal from the poor and give to the rich.

1. Finally some fight.

"Have you no decency!?" asked Rep. Keating after a Republican rep called Sarah McBride "Mr. McBride" repeatedly.

McBride shot back, calling the chairman "Madam Chairman."

Fireworks erupted, Dems protested, and the hearing was cancelled.

"Have You No Decency?": Republican Calls Sarah McBride "Mister," Dems Erupt And End Hearing
During a meeting of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, a Republican representative, Rep. Keith Self, called transgender congresswoman the "gentleman from Delaware." Dems pushed back.

So I'm assuming that the hatch axt is no longer a law? Or will this system added to the list of things that the president does illegally that he gets away with?

Anyone else wonder what Trump has on Jeff Bezos? His sure seems to have him by the short and curly's.

This administration is going to make the teapot dome scandal look like a bunch of choir boys.

I hear musk is beefing up his security. I would caution him on one thing, as you beef up your security there's more of a likelihood that a rogue agent will get in. We can only pray this happens.

The Trump administration with all of their actions are making Mister Potter from It's a Wonderful Life look like mister Rogers.

Every morning I wake up praying that someone overnight has suffocated the president. Evanka you can do this! Be a patriot!
