“No one has put into the time and effort that anyone has put in the cycle that he did,” Gillibrand said.

Big "Has Anyone Really Been Far Even as Decided to Use Even Go Want to do Look More Like?" energy

Gillibrand, who used Islamophobic attacks against Mamdani after he won the primaries.

Yeah, this tracks.

Schumer decided that people should talk about all of the fucking things that were in people's faces 24/7, for 2 years?

What a brilliant leader.

Basically he secures the most dirty money for them, that's all they care about.

Chris Van Hollen is calling his colleagues: https://www.ms.now/news/van-hollen-schumer-senate-majority-leader-democrats

Let's get the new leadership we so desperately need!

7 calls to help replace Schumer and Jeffries:

1. Call Ayanna Pressley and encourage her to run for speaker of the house. She would be a great leader in addition to being the first black speaker of the house - which eliminates Hakeem Jeffries false claim only racists oppose him.

From the article:

Sen.-elect Abdul El-Sayed (D-Mich.) said again earlier this week he would back Van Hollen over Schumer. Sen.-elect Annie Andrews (D-S.C.) said Friday that she wants “generational change” in Senate leadership, after pledging during the campaign not to support Schumer. Sens.-elect Adam Hamilton (D-Kan.) and Troy Jackson (D-Maine) have said the same.

Pretty sure the point is to force them to keep re-rolling votes to delay everything as much as possible similar to what’s going on with Israel’s PM election. I could be wrong tho, I’m no expert on the legal background of this bs

New York times was reporting schumer had the votes at the start of the week. I'm hoping it's just corporate media bullshit, but I urge everyone to harass your reps.

One of the best arguments against Schumer is not his centrism but that he's just bad at the job. His bumbling smarmy media responses, his bad senate picks, and his last minute defection on the Republican spending bill are all just bad things for a leader to do. Slotkin may be a centrist, but she's also a newer senator and can recognize incompetence rather than accepting that you just need to defer to seniority.

I'm just as baffled. Maybe she finally listened to a the voicemails she got last cycle, or maybe watching Stevens combust in real time awakened a fear of following that trajectory

i had the same reaction. i pictured myself calling her office to advocate for this and my demands being ignored. shit be weird. i still want her out of office at the first opportunity.

wonder if shes doing this, if she knows the rest of the AIPAC wont vote against zionist schumer. or her own seat is more unstable than chucks,.

They can't do right when led by someone who will constantly do wrong.
