Asked about the possibility of impeachment, Schumer says "we hope that we can have support from our Republican colleagues to put a brake on this long before it gets that far"

Stop what? Bad-mouthing the Democrats? You yourself said the leadership must go. This is nothing new. Back in the 1930s Will Rogers said "I'm not a member of an organized political party. I'm a Democrat."

Brakes! WTF - the horse is out of the damn barn! Now that I’ve seen this my hopes just went down the toilet! Stupid Democrats. No wonder I don’t send you money or a membership request! Stop being so damn nice you putz!

Why are we in this situation? Because whenever most leftists learn about some kind of awful thing that Republicans have done, they respond by going after Democrats like many of the people replying to Aaron's post are doing here.

That doesn't excuse Schumer or Jeffries fecklessness. There are other D politicians bringing the fire though. This mealy mouthed shit from these two isn't rising to the occasion at all. D's across the board need to run on concrete ways they are going to hold R's accountable when they win in Nov.

Hey, I saw what has happened after the leadership of the Democratic Party has been incessantly attacked by the Peanut Gallery and don't personally like the results from that strategy of the people running government. I would like to see if we could get better results from trying a different approach

I try to elevate the D politicians I think are doing it right more than crapping on the D politicians that I think aren't getting it done. In pressing moments though my disappointment spills over though.

Pathetic..... Can you really blame the MAGAts when they look at how pathetic and weak and incompetent Schumer, Jeffries and a whole bunch of Dem Senators (including mine in Michigan) are and think to themselves "there is no way I am voting for these cucks".

…..before it gets that far? Is he fucking Rip Van Winkle? He shouldnt have been allowed to for Prez.Schumer is a problem, but John Roberts court is the source.

Can't put the brakes on war crimes already in the rearview mirror. Deciding not to prosecute is sure a choice. Imagine telling on yourself like that...

Schumer is the Merrick Garland of the Senate. Probably a good guy, but the wrong man for what is needed (and wanted) in the fight against Trump, The Democrats keep saying this is a fight for the future of democracy, but send yesterday’s old and tired fighters. Lead or get out of the way!!

Since last March, Schumer has been chasing this chimera of GOP goodwill. I'll say it again - any Dem suggesting that there is a path for anything "bipartisan" is practicing criminal negligence.

An opposition party doesn't waste its time trying to make deals with fascists. We need people who are ready to fight loud and long, not "strategists."

So, they act like everyone else. People who don't get their arse up complain about others who don't get their arse up either. Other countries had resistance groups, Stauffenbergs, general strikes, but the USA watch this as passive and docile as they watch their children get gunned down at school.

why is a politician more protected from criticism than normal people? they're LEADERS. taking action is literally their job, and they have magnitudes more power to do it, not just with their role in government but the respect that organizing requires.

Dems filed Articles. They do not have the votes for Impeachment. Many were mad when Dems ended the Shutdown. If not, Epstein discharge petition would’ve expired & the case would be closed. We have to win the House.This motivates Dem/Indie voters Affordability Healthcare Economy Epstein Trump

Has democratic leadership released an aggressively pro working class agenda to campaign on and focus on the economy? Medicare for all? Universal early childhood education? Universal paid leave? Supporting unionization by passing the pro act?

We’ll see more of that as candidates begin their own campaigns. Like VA, NJ, FL, & NYC Nov Dem winners, each candidate will determine the affordability pro-worker policies that best serve their district & clearly distinguish them from their Repub opponent.

That's exactly what America has been waiting for: a strongly worded message from the Democrats showing Trump that his illegal invasion of a sovereign country is unconstitutional and will not be tolerated and that he will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. Or, what Schumer says.

This is just some political game to Chuck Schumer. Democrats need to do their jobs and impeach the president for his litany of impeachable offenses. It’s not Democrats’ job to ensure that Republicans do THEIR jobs. But Democrats need to initiate this to present the opportunity.

He always uses the republicans as a cop out. Instead of doing anything, he will hope on hope that they do the right thing. Which he knows they never will do. (No fuckin duh) He may as well be on their side. He is a detriment to the Democratic Party and the country

It's already that far. Trump VIOLATED THE CONSTITUTION. Trump could literally walk into Congress and shoot one of these useless dolts and they STILL wouldn't file articles of impeachment. They are utterly and completely void of any purpose whatsoever at this point. We may as well not have a Congress

He is court martialing Senators because they remembered the military, that they must not obey illegal orders and wants the death penalty for minimum one of them. His personal judiciary DOJ,they even overtook their X Account to post from, will decide whatever the “Führer” is demanding or SCOTUS will

Schumer is as responsible for this war as trump. He had two opportunities with the CR filibuster to insist the executive work responsibly to earn its funding votes from dem senators, Schumer chicken little caved each time before achieving ANYTHING meaningful.

He's already been impeached twice. No brakes were put on. He incited an INSURRECTION and no brakes were put on. Now, he's starting wars with countries that aren't our enemies while he sucks up to that cockroach Putin?? Like all his other crimes, no brakes will be put on.

Um, too late. The brakes should have been put on in the first week of this regime. Seriously, wtf? What happened to no more wars? Will they now draft our children to go fight? What's next? No one will do anything about this. Just like all the laws broken by him. Prison is too good for him.

"I hope they join us in sending a strongly worded letter. Senator Collins has already expressed deep concern" Dump this geriatric coward. If Trump putting the American military in harm's way to effect regime change to enrich oil companies, and likely himself, isn't impeachable, nothing is.

Putting the military in harm's way? The people in that military CHOSE to be there, and CHOSE to follow obviously illegal and crazy orders rather than resign and get court martialed. The military is complicit. Gleefully so. Don't feel sorry for them. They're fascists too. bsky.app/profile/stuc...

Higher ranking officers might be. They're responsible not actual fighting personnel who have to assume that their superiors are following legitimate orders. I said before he started that counting on the military to define "illegal" orders would be hard. Some, like kill prisoners, yes easy call.

Ah, yes, let's hope that the people who have shown exactly no interest in even getting ready to fixing to do fuck all about anything are going to jump right on that support train. Good plan, Chuckster

You right, all international media are calling this a kidnapping. US is looking very bad for other nations. The England primer’s ministry said: We have nothing to do about that. I saw this in an international news.

What would a brake look like Chuck? Would that be releasing the Venezuela president and his wife? Would that be undoing all the damage the Bombs did to property and un kill the people who are dead? - is what a real journalist would have asked Chuck.
