Summary

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer faces mounting pressure from House Democrats to resign his leadership position after supporting a Republican government funding bill that most House Democrats opposed.

Representatives Delia Ramirez, Glenn Ivey, and the liberal group Indivisible have publicly called for his resignation, with more lawmakers potentially following suit.

Critics argue Schumer betrayed House Democrats by not fighting against a bill that failed to protect agencies from DOGE cuts, while Schumer maintains avoiding a shutdown was necessary to prevent Trump from downsizing government more rapidly.

    Not being a piece of shit tends to have a positive impact on the longevity of your brain, it seems. Yes, I’m calling Biden a piece of shit too.

      Biden is like Zaphod Bebblebrox, he had his brain split into two. But the older he gets the less he can control which part is talking.

        It so, both parts of his brain are shitty.

        Never forget he was a fucking segregationist.
