DesertPaws<p>We need a new <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/Democratic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Democratic</span></a> leader in the <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/Senate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Senate</span></a> to be standing up for <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/Democracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Democracy</span></a>. <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/Schumer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Schumer</span></a> 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.</p>
