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.

On Chuck Schumer’s cowardice in advancing the MAGA budget

I just sent the following to Adam Schiff and Alex Padilla (both D-CA Senate). Please consider contacting them as well.

"Chuck Schumer must be removed as the Senate Democratic Leader. We must have a leader with the strength and courage to stand up to Trump and the MAGA GOP. Schumer’s decision to support advancing the Trump budget is shameful and a disgrace to the Democratic party. Listen to AOC. She is the base and the future of the Democratic Party. It’s unfortunate that she’s not in the Senate.”

Senator #ChuckSchumer of NY, the Democratic leader, on Thurs broke w/many in his party & said he would vote for a Republican-written stopgap spending bill to keep federal funding flowing past a midnight deadline on Friday, making a forceful case for why #Democrats could not allow a shutdown that most of them have demanded. “A shutdown would give Donald #Trump, Elon #Musk & DOGE the keys to the city, state & country,” he said on the #Senate floor.

Continued thread

The states argued #Musk violated the #Constitution by wielding #power only ofcls confirmed by the US #Senate can exercise under the #AppointmentsClause, & sought the materials through…discovery.

#Chutkan said her order focused mainly on who at #DOGE was making cost-cutting decisions & how far they could go.

"Defendants argue that the 'inner workings of government' are immaterial to an Appointments Clause claim,” she wrote.

UPDATE: Weldon's nomination was just pulled

David Weldon, MD, nominee for Director of the CDC, is a vaccine- & science- denier. Confirmation hearing is TODAY, 3/13
