  • Now, Roginsky is “thoroughly disgusted,” she said. “I don’t understand why they would subject people to hunger and to layoffs and to flight delays and to missed paychecks for the past 40 days, if only to get nothing out of it now.”

    Schumer, who was the target of near-universal vitriol among Democrats in March when he backed down in a budget battle that threatened to evolve into a shutdown, was quick to announce his opposition to the deal and he voted against it Monday night.

    But in fact, his fingerprints are all over it.

    Get rid of this useless piece of shit, Schumer needs to be in a nursing home.





  • No, Schumer needs to resign immediately and never ever have any input to politics again, this was an awful betrayal of everybody who grinned and bore the suffering from the government being closed because they knew it was Republicans holding us hostage.

    Schumer has betrayed us all by normalizing betrayal like this, by encouraging us to take a deal with the strongman out of fear because maybe people won’t hold the line when you come under the crosshairs and maybe you will just be sweeped under the rug because your suffering was too cynical for the opposing narrative to handle…

    This is honestly the singlest biggest US policy failure of my life time, I cannot believe how badly Shumer blundered and betrayed my future with this.

    People are going to die because of how Schumer behaved here, many tens of thousands of people. Schumer is a disgrace to the Democratic party and is a living breathing argument as good as any that the issues at the heart of the DNC are terminal and fundamentally resistant to change necessary to survive, the future be damned.























  • I actually think this is a risky play for the ruling class because the average USian rarely flies. It is the wealthy management class of the US that utilizes airline travel extensively, and their jobs are useless and in large part unnecessary.

    What happens when the business shell game of moving naive idiots with expensive watches around on jets to give the appearance of important business happening is shattered when the people who do actual work in this country keep showing up and getting real work done while the management class is utterly grounded from flights being cancelled en masse?

    If I was part of the ruling class this would be making me VERY worried.
