A defiant Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) defended his decision Friday to vote in favor of cloture for a Republican-backed funding bill that would avert a looming government shutdown – and brushed off threats to his leadership position.In an interview on CNN shortly after his vote roiled...
If you are in the US please #callyoursenators to reject the proposed CR #fundingbill!! This #continuingresolution hands the keys over to #trump and #musk to ransack our #government for the next 6 months. #TrumpRegime and #MuskNazi are ignoring law while the government is open. Being closed won't change much except give up #democrats, who are the #MinorityParty in both Senate and House, last #bargainingchip for 6 months. So much #damage has been done in less than two months, in 6 months there may be little to save.
Ask your #senators to let the #governmentshutdown if that's what #republicans want. The #GOPfascists Speaker Mike Johnson quickly rammed the CR through the #houseofrepresentatives by offering #gopcowards representatives conflicting promises. He then forced the House to break and end their session of Congress, which limited the #senate to accept the CR or let the government shut down. Budgets need to be #bipartisanlegislation. Furthermore, #TrumpLies and #muskrat have illegally #impounded funds approved by #congress, showing that budgets need to be enforced or Congress is a #powerlessshell. The #goptraitors has signaled for the last two months that they have no interest in protecting their co-equality as a branch of government. If #democratsawol give up their last position of #power, Congress will be #beholden to the Executive Branch. They will have #surrendered their #constitutional responsibility to act as a backstop to #executiveoverreach. Call your Senators to hold them #accountable to the people. Hold them to their oath to the Constitution. #oathtoconstitution #FuckTrump #FuckElon #FuckElonMusk
Schumer needs to step aside.
Schumer Will Clear the Way for G.O.P. Spending Bill, Breaking With His Party

Disgusting…
The recently passed government funding bill excluded provisions for pediatric cancer research, including the Give Kids a Chance Act, due to interventions by President-elect Donald Trump and (elected to nothing) Elon Musk, who opposed certain elements of the bill. 
The Give Kids a Chance Act aimed to provide 190 million dollars for funding for pediatric cancer research. Why? Because the 439 Billion Dollar man, Elon Musk, had a “whim.” #ElonMusk #Trump #FundingBill
