Can we stop calling what’s happening under Trump ‘politics’, and start calling it what it is … a coup and a hostile fascist take over of America?

Now, can we find a way to explain that to Chuck Schumer and the Democrats who are acting as if it’s business as usual in Washington?

#Schumer MUST 'step aside'

He justifies his (terrible) decision to surrender to the #fascists
'to keep the Courts of Justice open' and be able
stop #Trump and the #magas 'in the Courts of Justice'
... RIDICULOUS !
as if Trump and Magas feel compelled to obey the laws 🤣

Schumer is NOT a 'war time' leader
the rules of 'engagement' are changed !
there is the need of someone with more.... backbone.

We need a new #Democratic leader in the #Senate to be standing up for #Democracy. #Schumer is not the person to do that. He might be good at behind the scenes procedural stuff, but he is not good as the face of the opposition and needs to go. The country requires a person to be front and center every day speaking on 1 item-of-the-day and the vision the democrats have for it. That talk needs to be posted on every platform so nobody goes without seeing it. Make it short and sweet and to the point.

And @indivisibleteam is done with #ChuckSchumer. From their latest email: "This was a massive betrayal of the Democratic party, of Indivisibles and activists organizing against this bill, and of our #democracy. Because of Schumer’s failure, the bill included zero safeguards against #Musk’s illegal and unconstitutional behavior. By refusing to hold the line, Senator #Schumer went against the vast majority of his party to fully capitulate to #Trump."

"Schumer broke 2 prime rules of politics for leaders. 1st, don’t defy your own troops. More importantly, when you have the votes, as Schumer did, don’t capitulate w/o getting something in return."

The only ones who strongly favored giving Trump what he wanted were Schumer’s toady, K Gillibrand of NY, & J Fetterman of PA. With 53 Rs in the Senate *R Paul -opposes the CR, it'd take 8 Dems to pass cloture. #Schumer🚨decided to defy the maj. of his own caucus.

Reading the #US #news about #Schumer voting yes on the spending vote is absolutely hilarious, in a dark "we're all doomed" kinda way.

Most people knew the #Democrats as a group were captured, essentially controlled opposition as a group. This is just so blatant.

At least a government shutdown could buy us a bit of time here in Europe. It'd give us just a little bit more time until the US starts actively helping Russia. Democrats can't even give us that.

UNBELIEVABLY, Chuck #Schumer is voting YES with republicans on the CR/funding bill. All Dems and Inds should be voting NO on cloture and NO on the CR/funding bill!

I just sent a message here, letting him know what I think: schumer.senate.gov/contact/mes

I am not a #NY constituent, but as #Senate Minority Leader, he represents and is accountable to ALL of us.
