Yeah I can't wait to get told I have an unreasonable "purity test" for expecting a political party to:
1. Have a position
2. Hold that position
3. Advocate for and organize around that position

I want geriatric politicians to retire mostly because their politics largely suck. But ALSO because I feel like its genuinely harmful to enable elderly people to work until they die. People deserve, by virtue of being people, to be able to rest and enjoy time with family at the end of their lives.
why is it ageist to want extremely powerful people who have had power for decades to retire, but it isnt ageist for both parties to be fighting like hell to prevent millenials and zoomers from having any access to any power in politics at all?

The cheapest plan available to me (a Georgian) is over $1,000 a month. Healthcare is no longer an option for me. I will ration the medication I take for as long as I can and then I will wait to die.
So every freelancer you know is going to lose their insurance or be bankrupted by premiums because Schumer is an invertebrate

What makes this more frustrating is that Dems were winning.
They had public opinion
They had base enthusiasm
They had Trump making tactical mistakes every day
And they lose

This is why this surrender isn't just about this narrow issue but is rather the whole constitutional ballgame:
Democrats are affirmatively signaling they do not want political power at the same time Trump is transitioning the political system into an autocratic one wherein they're denied it forever

Not that he didn’t already know, but now Trump knows for sure he can roll the Dems every time and there’s no need to negotiate for anything

When Senate Republicans vote against healthcare subsidies in December that they “promised” a vote on Chuck Schumer is going to write the most strongly worded letter OF ALL TIME!

Expel the yes votes from the party and cut off all their access to fundraising, then remove Schumer from leadership. Anything less is mealy-mouthed coward bullshit.
As this vote moves to the House, I stand with Democratic leadership as they refuse to rubber stamp the full-scale Republican assault on Americans’ health care and I am proud of the majority of Senate Democrats who opposed this vote.

This is not what they actually say. This is what they used to say, in the long ago before times when Shaheen learned to do politics. There is no kumbaya median voter anymore. The question you get knocking doors is not "why can't you all just work together?" it's "why didn't / will you fight harder?
Shaheen: "When I talk to my constituents in New Hampshire, you know what they say to me? They say, 'Why can't you all just work together to address the problems that are facing this country?'"

The sacrifices countless federal employees and poor families made for this shutdown have been betrayed by @schumer.senate.gov and 8 other democrats who will let people die for their worship of money and their own comfort.

Schumer can be removed from his Dem leadership role this week - 23 Dems (and/or independents) just have to vote to depose him
And they should, given this is his fault.
And they should, given this is his fault.
This is a lovely sentiment but Schumer isn't up for re-election until 2028 and he knows this. At which point he will be 77/78. There's no mechanism to recall a sitting senator AFAIK.
Let’s be clear: Chuck Schumer is the one ending this shutdown, no matter how the votes read.
Chuck Schumer is claiming that he’s voting no, while letting other Senators (Fetterman, Kaine, King, etc) do HIS dirty work.
He must be removed from his leadership & primaried for the sake of this country

Shaheen
Kaine
Fetterman
Durbin
Rosen
Understand This Fact: Chuck Schumer is behind this. None of these 8 are up for reelection in 2026. Schumer asked them vote yes—they agreed. He's such a coward that he folded and won't even own it.

Unacceptable. There are 189,000 people in my district who will be paying 50–300% more for the same, and in many cases worse, healthcare.
I won’t do that to the people I represent. I’m a NO on this “deal.”
