Trump wasted no time after Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer caved on the CR. The president immediately gutted seven government agencies by executive order.
Shame on him and the others. They have lost all trust and credibility. He does not own his seat. He does not employ us. We employ him. He and the others handed the bully his candy and ball on a silver platter. Shame on him and Dick Durbin. It’s almost unbelievable, they have shown us exactly who they are, spineless, lacking any moral courage and completely ineffective . Both must go.
I’m just a woman who’s father at the age of 19 flew a B26 300 feet above the ground during WW2 so you have the freedom to say and write what you want. That plane was called The Widow Maker.
Thank God for people like your dad. My 3 brothers all served in Viet Nam. The oldest one also served in Korea. These namby pambys just run their mouths.
I live in Connecticut and am a former New Yorker. Does that make me a country bumpkin? What exactly matters where you live and what you believe? Do you know farmers in Midwest are being hurt? Trump and Musk are Putin puppets and are planning to destroy our democracy!
They see themselves as Oligarchs and so does his billionaire cabinet. The only people who are ok with all this Shit… is the wealthiest of our country because of tax cuts!! You’re an ass!!
Good on you for sticking it to that trailer trash magatard. If the mindless Trumpian KKKoolaid Zombies had any spine or genuine love for the USA beyond jingoism, they wouldn't let the Trump/Musk Cabal get away with trying to ruin our nation for the enrichment of a handful of hyper-wealthy people.
Huh, Pete. A lot of us “true suburban back yard liberals” are happier about being knowledgeable, informed, and levelheaded than being blind, hicks-from-the-sticks MAGA conservatives.
Schumer needs to be taken down from minority leader and when he comes up for re-election we vote him out. Also the other nine senate democrats who for the CR. We don’t need those type of people representing us. Because frankly they don’t care about us
His Wall Street benefactors told him not to vote to close the government. We all know democrats feed from the same trough as republicans and this country is truly an Oligarchy.
I am LIVID! When I heard the results last night I started physically shaking with RAGE. I am SO ANGRY!!! You can't be a leader if no one is following you, CHUCK! Traitor!
Didn’t blow up in his face, he must’ve gotten something really nice. DJT thanked him.right away.
This is blowing up in all our faces. Benedict Arnold has nothing on this guy and 9 others who have gotten lost in their own personal well being and forgotten about their country at one of the most critical moments in 150 years.
I am not donating another dime to the Dems. I am fuming over what Sen. Schumer and the other 9 Dems did. You should be fighting for us not giving in to a wannabe strongman.
#1 it is not a rant. #2 ignoring your own voters and the choice that they made is not a way to keep a party together. It causes resentment, and Democrats have had the issue in the past of the elites thinking that they know best and everyone else should follow, and they are doing it again.---Jason
So I’m to assume that Joe Biden was not part of the elite?
Last time I heard that word it was in reference to Hillary Clinton.
If anybody wants to complain about my comment who DIDN’T vote for Hillary Clinton or Joe Biden or Kamala Harris you’re welcome to block me. I vote for the Democrat at the top of the ticket. I don’t want anybody responding to me ever who didn’t do the same. Let me point this out regarding resentment:
Joe Biden himself talked about being a one term president.
Joe Biden sat in front of the Senate with a front row seat to the destruction of our Supreme Court.
His response?
Pathetic compromise.
I supported Joe Biden fully and recognized his excellence as a president, unfortunately my original comment stands.
No Democrat deserved to see that after the onslaught of fascism we’re watching.
I hear what you’re saying. Biden did a lot right but he made mistakes as well. Garland was one of them. Not re-negotiating the withdrawal from Afghanistan was another.
We can agree to disagree on some things. What we all need to focus on is getting rid of the current occupant of the White House and his regime.
I'm with you .I'm m a lifelong 50 years of voting democrat in every election since 76 in Florida. I'm still pissed at the anyone but Hillary voters in 2016 who started this whole nightmare. I see the rights I have fought hard for being taken way. I see the democrats always playing nice while the Republicans do every dirty trick in the book and get rewarded. We got MADD . I see the young who complain about not being represented and then don't vote or vote 3rd party. It's too sad to watch the party you've put your blood sweat and tears into just let it all go away. Roe v Wade and the Supreme Court . There's a saying that goes... a Republicans will crawl on their belly over broken glass to vote for any ( R) on the ticket, Democrats protest vote about things out of our control or need to be in love with the candidate or they'll show us and waste votes so Trump gets reelected 😢 I'm exhausted of it all.
I repeat what I said above. I'm still waiting to hear from the legal beagles as to which rock we were stuck between presented the wiser option. Were the Senate Dems right or wrong?
I agree that Garland was a poor choice. A judge...too slow. I liked Biden as a whole, he got things done. But he, Schumer and Garland all cut from the same cloth of half a century ago. Playing by rules that don't exist anymore and they don't get it.
Bernie is a fighter! One of the good ones. I made a mistake in 2016 not voting for him in the primary. I read( probably Russian propaganda) things that made me uncomfortable.
I, too am not sure who that comment was intended for, but I don't think Michael or myself should take up residence under any slimy rocks. Maybe Susan was referring to Schumer? ---Jason
Yeah, the Red are feeling the pain of their choice now. It's a bit late but better late than never. At some point they're all gonna put down their bibles and start reaching out to work together with all of us to get rid of this administration. I can't wait.
Shame on him and the others. They have lost all trust and credibility. He does not own his seat. He does not employ us. We employ him.

Fcuk you
I’m just a woman who’s father at the age of 19 flew a B26 300 feet above the ground during WW2 so you have the freedom to say and write what you want. That plane was called The Widow Maker.
Thank God for people like your dad. My 3 brothers all served in Viet Nam. The oldest one also served in Korea. These namby pambys just run their mouths.
Did Pete’s fee fees get ruffled and he had a whittle verbal tantrum
Go see if Daddy will give you a hug
😂
Enjoy your results, Pete - you’ve done a fabulous job of fcuking yourself.
Pete, did you get kicked off Twitter/X? Substack is only for respectful people
Really????? Spoken like a true surburban back yard liberal
I live in Connecticut and am a former New Yorker. Does that make me a country bumpkin? What exactly matters where you live and what you believe? Do you know farmers in Midwest are being hurt? Trump and Musk are Putin puppets and are planning to destroy our democracy!

Thank you Eileen! This one is probably a maga troll just trying to add to the hate and discontent in our country. He can go pound sand!!!
Not a suburbanite, nor do I like or have cats.
Sounds like you know a lot about suburban back yard politics. Still waiting for your "yellow" trickle down? Don't lose hope. Keep licking.
Huh, Pete. A lot of us “true suburban back yard liberals” are happier about being knowledgeable, informed, and levelheaded than being blind, hicks-from-the-sticks MAGA conservatives.
You will miss Biden.
Fk off assole!
Looks like you're following the lead of Cuck Schumer....fucking coward!!
Yes, really.
Schumer needs to be replaced… he’s out of touch
I couldn’t agree more. We need younger leaders.
Thanks for bending over CHUCK ( and others) now WE ALL GET SCREWED
Bullshit Schumer knew exactly what to do
“Without a smile”
On the Ides of March we take the place of Caesar, as the Senators betray us.😡
That’s today.
Schumer needs to be taken down from minority leader and when he comes up for re-election we vote him out. Also the other nine senate democrats who for the CR. We don’t need those type of people representing us. Because frankly they don’t care about us
His Wall Street benefactors told him not to vote to close the government. We all know democrats feed from the same trough as republicans and this country is truly an Oligarchy.
Schumer, you made a big mistake. More dismantling of the USA immediately followed your screw up
FU Schumer. Coward!!!!
Schumer needs to go because he’s not a fighter ,and that’s what the democrats need the most @ this time.
Disappointed and hung out to dry
I am LIVID! When I heard the results last night I started physically shaking with RAGE. I am SO ANGRY!!! You can't be a leader if no one is following you, CHUCK! Traitor!
COWARDS or TRAITORS OF THE PARTY! ALL 10 of THEM!
Didn’t blow up in his face, he must’ve gotten something really nice. DJT thanked him.right away.
This is blowing up in all our faces. Benedict Arnold has nothing on this guy and 9 others who have gotten lost in their own personal well being and forgotten about their country at one of the most critical moments in 150 years.
I forgot to add 53 current Republican Senators to this. They belong here too.
I am not donating another dime to the Dems. I am fuming over what Sen. Schumer and the other 9 Dems did. You should be fighting for us not giving in to a wannabe strongman.
Biden’s abject failure in a debate was his OWN fault.
So was keeping Garland.
All else in the rant is valid
#1 it is not a rant. #2 ignoring your own voters and the choice that they made is not a way to keep a party together. It causes resentment, and Democrats have had the issue in the past of the elites thinking that they know best and everyone else should follow, and they are doing it again.---Jason

I'll drink to that.

Totally agree with you. These Dems are from another generation we need younger more progressive Democrats to take over (Bernie is ok though).
Bernie gets it...right from the start. So does Elizabeth Warren.
Bernie is a fighter! One of the good ones. I made a mistake in 2016 not voting for him in the primary. I read( probably Russian propaganda) things that made me uncomfortable.
Go crawl under the slimy rock where your kind live.
Pardon me?
I, too am not sure who that comment was intended for, but I don't think Michael or myself should take up residence under any slimy rocks. Maybe Susan was referring to Schumer? ---Jason
Gosh, let’s hope so.
Vote Blue.
Resist.
Yeah, the Red are feeling the pain of their choice now. It's a bit late but better late than never. At some point they're all gonna put down their bibles and start reaching out to work together with all of us to get rid of this administration. I can't wait.
If you don’t know the difference, you’re on the wrong thread
I think they were talking about Pete the bot. Comes around a lot on substack to cause trouble. Don't argue with bots
Uncalled for. Why splinter us being rude?
Not to worry. A little friendly fire is OK. The enemy continues to be nonvoters, third-party , and MAGAts
I’m from New York State. Both of our “senators” caved. Disgusting. And Gillebrand was always talking about supporting veterans. What a crock of shit
