It makes my blood boil when some of the most powerful people in the country post like they’re just helpless bystanders.

I think Schumer, and _most_ of the Democratic leadership are out of their depth. The status quo is so wildly disrupted they're completely unequipped to handle it.

I said this the other day to @Remittancegirl : We need war-time leadership. These clowns are peace-time leadership at best, and complicit grifters at worst.

I want progressives leading the charge and the establishment Dems need to take their stock portfolios and retire.

@donhawkins @Remittancegirl @401matthall @therobburgessshow

I want AOC to take Schumer's seat. It would be such a LMFAO moment.

@401matthall @Remittancegirl They’re bureaucrats of empire, in the Neville Chamberlain to Vichy French mold

@401matthall @Remittancegirl It’s beyond them not knowing how to respond, instead they’re very much against it. How many times & how many ways do they have to tell us so?

@Simplicator @Remittancegirl

Yeah, I'm inclined to agree. I just wish I was wrong. I wish you were wrong. I wish we were all _wrong_.

We're just... Not wrong.

@401matthall @Remittancegirl Right, b/c if they did what we want them to, it inescapably means materially challenging white supremacism & capitalist empire. & that they will not countenance, to the point that they’d rather lose elections—to fascism, & climate doom—than that. Which they have, twice.

@Hey_Beth

... She's not said she's running for it has she?

It makes my blood boil when some of the most powerful people in the country post like they’re just helpless bystanders. One of us can whip caucus votes to block DHS funding, Chuck, and it sure isn’t me.

@401matthall

I don't think she's announced anything. Schumer is up for re-election in 2028. I can't imagine he'd run again, and I do think it is her seat for the taking.

The only thing that might derail her is if Mamdani fails miserably. I believe that any successes that Mamdani has in NYC will
give ALL progressive Democrats and progressive ideas a boost.

And I don't think he is going to fail miserably. New Mexico just voted for universal daycare. These are policies that make sense and can be enacted.

@Hey_Beth @donhawkins @Remittancegirl @401matthall @therobburgessshow

AOC is a fucking retard

@therobburgessshow

With his finger pointing...

He's almost certainly saying, "ICE out of Minnestota NOW or we'll send a _very_ sternly worded letter."

Feckless noodle.

@401matthall @therobburgessshow No, he'll begin an inquiry into the possibility of forming a committee to debate the viability of sending a letter.

@401matthall also he STILL doesn't it. The core problem isn't that ICE is in Minnesota. The problem is that ICE are anonymous lawless jackbooted thugs whose mission is to engage in racist terrorism everywhere they go and are protected from accountability for the destruction they wreak. ICE is essentially the Klan with presidential imprimatur and massive Congressional funding. Chuck Schumer, you quisling coward, #DefundICEnowandforever

@therobburgessshow @Longspeak @401matthall be fair, it’ll be a sternly worded letter. But only if his corporate sponsors and focus groups tell him it’s okay.
