Anything short of calling for Schumer to be replaced is performative outrage designed to mollify you

To be a U.S. Senator is to be an institutionalist. Even Bernie Sanders cares more about his role and friendships in the senate than he does about his ideological project. If ideology came first he would lead the charge on ousting Schumer. But that’s his friend.

Wow: Per Hamdi's legal team, his only charge was a visa overstay — after Trump revoked his visa.
Despite DHS tweeting that Hamdi supported terrorism, they never charged him with any criminality.
In other words: Trump revoked a journalist's visa, so agents could arrest him for overstaying his visa.

NEW: British journalist Sami Hamdi is being released from US detention.
Trump administration agents detained him two weeks ago at the San Francisco airport — hours after he addressed an event, where he urged US leaders to take an “America First” approach rather than “Israel First.”

The different between the right and centrists is that the right gleefully kills millions of people and centrists present mass murder as a technical solution, like they added up all the numbers and carried a zero and oops, sorry, millions have to die.

Note to fellow Boomers in Minneapolis upset about the Senate Democrats caving yet again:
#1: This is precisely why The Youngs have embraced the DSA and why you should the same. Or at least quit demonizing young Dems who are looking for big change. The DSA caucus is the future.

Amazing moment in time right now where people who yelled at us for sticking to genocide as a red line are now also disgusted with Democrats and threatening not to vote for them. So your health insurance becoming more expensive was your red line?

The right cannot be "fixed." It must be defeated. The same is true of Dems like Schumer. They cannot be cajoled into serving a better set of interests. They are constitutionally incapable, and what's more, they don't want to. We aren't part of their priority set.

Unless Democratic Senators who voted no on the #Schumersurrender today explicitly call for Schumer to resign or step aside - they all own this cave. Just pushing out performative posts and press releases don’t count for much anymore. Enough.
Since the Democrats worked extra hard to hide who actually supported this, I think the No Kings/Resistance position should be to primary every Democrat unless they publicly call for Schumer's ouster this week
Either they go into total rebellion mode, which they won't, or the people will

Schumer: "I must vote no. I can not, in good faith, support this CR. ... Make no mistake about it, the American people know who is inflicting this pain on them."
He stops short of urging his colleagues to vote "no."

Frey was a vulnerable incumbent. But progressives banked on the wrong guy to beat him.

Under new head of Paramount David Ellison, the studio has drawn up a list of actors who opposed the Gaza genocide and will not allow them to appear in its films and TV shows.
Does this sound familiar?
Also, "Ellison is reportedly aiming to take over Warner Bros. next."
