They want party unity- but only if it is unifying behind them.
🚨 NEW | NY AG Letitia James warns DSA not to primary Hakeem Jeffries: “For those who live in his district and are so drunk of power to think that they’re going to run against this man, you’ve got to come mess with me.”

I feel like people who want Schumer to be leader have the memory of a goldfish.

When a picture is worth more than 1,000 words.
I just met with Senator John Cornyn. He has served our state honorably, and I’m grateful for his advice and guidance.  Now is the time for us to come together — Democrats and Republicans — to deliver for Texas.

Can ship to confessional offices. Just saying.

If we can agree that there is such a thing as Too Old to pilot an airliner, why shouldn’t we also agree that you can be Too Old to pilot the Senate, the House, or the Executive branch?

Elizabeth Warren on people who say Dems needs to tone down their rhetoric: "Oh, please. Why don't you start with the president of the United States? And every ugly meme he's posted and every ugly word."

Abdul El-Sayed on Israel: My approach is simple: Treat the government of Israel the way you would treat any other government that did the same thing. My family comes from Egypt, and I want to do the same thing with Egypt. Egypt violates human rights law. Egypt shouldn't be getting $3.3 billion of our tax dollars. And I would hate if somebody would be like, "Well, because you share the ethnicity of 95% of the people in Egypt, for us to say that the Egyptian government is doing terrible things must be anti-Egyptian." No, it is just applying our principles evenly everywhere.

Will they announce Mitch’s resignation before or after the 1/3 oath?

But but but @SenSchumer worked behind the scenes, so he deserves the spotlight job. Christian Dior worked behind the scenes. He wasn’t dumb enough to think that qualified him to model the product. Failing to delegate to someone more suited to the moment is narcissistic.

A white, southern, regular guy with the kind of no-nonsense philosophy that most of America has (despite what we hear from the loudest voices)
Must watch: Meet Chuck Hubbard, who is set to defeat Virginia Foxx in a safe Trump +18 district in North Carolina. Just a normal guy, he decided to run for office to stand up for his LGBTQ daughter and defend her rights in Trump’s America.

SCHUMER: “I have many jobs as majority leader... and one is to fight for aid to Israel! All the aid that Israel needs, I will continue to fight for it!” “We delivered more security assistance to Israel our ally under my leadership than ever, ever before. We will keep doing that...” “I will always fight to give Israel what it needs...” This was earlier this year at a Jewish Community Relations Council event in NYC:
Schumer is a genocidal, incredibly corrupt Wall St tool, poised to be senate majority leader. I’m banned from @PressClubDC for confronting him.

So irritated by Schumer’s ‘reach across the aisle’ stance. Touch some grass, Chuck. Talk to voters. This isn’t 1992 anymore, and there’s been nobody on the other side of the aisle to take your hand in years.

You can always count on @RepJeffries and @SenSchumer to show up 15 minutes after polls close to take credit for wins they had nothing to do with. The flip side of the Trump coin is still the trump coin. Time for changes.

Sounds like he’s very concerned.
"I don't know what we could have done," Susan Collins' longtime campaign manager Steve Abbott told @WSJ. "She's been a very good senator. She's done very well for her state. She's done very well for the country, too. But that's not what this... was about."

Swear to Gd, I’m going to kick the first person who says Schumer should be majority leader because longevity. He was useless before. This election is about New.
