I like what Newsom is doing.
I like what Pritzker is doing.
I like what Mamdani is doing.
We need all hands on deck NOW.
We can worry about the presidential race LATER.

And I'm not sure the rest weren't behind this betrayal. Not seeing calls from Senate Democrats for Schumer to resign this morning. So at best those that voted no are silently complicit with the betrayal.

Rules for the Senate Dems to remove leaders, for those that are bored:
Just 10 members (20% of the Senate Dem Conference) can call for a meeting of the conference to vote on whether and who shall replace Schumer as Conference Chair and Democratic Leader.

INBOX: New statement from the folks who launched the #PassTheTorch campaign last summer to get Biden to step down demanding that Schumer now do the same. "Chuck Schumer must resign as minority leader and make way for leaders who will actually fight for the American people.”
