In this election, Americans called on us to unrig an economy rigged against working people & fueled by political corruption.
To deliver, we need new leadership. This isn't about any one person – it’s about answering that call.
That's why I’m running for Senate Majority Leader.
@ABridgen That happened to me at Roissy CDG in Paris, the turbulence from the plane in front cause huge difficulties - too much turbulence for us to safely land - we bounced off the tarmac and the pilot and to take off again and re-circle to land. Heart in throat moment ...🫨
@SenSchumer What I sent to @jamestalarico, my new Senator whom I voted for and who I expect will listen to me an countless others who feel the same way:
@SenSchumer You do not have the votes of the Americans who voted in this landslide victory. Senators should take heed. Ask what is best for the party & the way forward; stop clinging to power when the writing is on the wall. Do the right thing. Hand the baton. Be dignified and honorable.
@VanJones68 He can’t answer a simple direct question abt the removal of Sec 219 from the spending bill. That’s not what we voted for!! It’s weak, obtuse and avoidance. He’s beholden to AIPAC.. it’s clear .
Q: “Sen. @VanHollenForMD called for removing the provision in the NDAA (section 219) which deepens military cooperation with Israel. Do you support removing it?”
@RepJeffries: “I haven’t talked to him… Things have to dramatically change in the Middle East…”
(A non-answer)
@TheTNHoller@VanHollenForMD@RepJeffries I was waiting for that specific question. The fact Jefferies can’t be transparent about a very simple and direct question is not what we VOTED for! This is weakness. This is fear. This is having to walk a tight rope because you’ve taken money from a AIPAC.
@RoKhanna We could have had the votes but for our own incompetence- it's a real slap in the face to us voters /constituents who are tired, exhausted and angry already!! THE CAUCUS MUST DO BETTER! Hopefully not a sign of things to come!!!
Hakeem Jeffries needs to not be doing interviews so smugly and acting as if what happened on Tuesday was because we are just so in love with him! I’m telling you, the more he talks, the louder the calls are going to get, and it has nothing to do with his skin color; it’s his tone and his repeated flippant attitude towards what the American people want vs. what the system wants!
And the biggest elephant in the room was what was done to Angie Nixon in FL, Corey Bush, and others, and those are skinfolk! So I don’t want to hear people are attacking him because he’s black. It’s happening because where there’s smoke, there’s fire!
@RepJeffries Even Pelosi didn't show up to vote and decided to return to San Francisco for a veterans event. Guess she figured it wasn't important enough & put her interests first. Others were at an AIPAC style event & got stuck in traffic after. What a F'ing MESS.
@cwebbonline@hakeemjeffries It's NOT a mandate - we don't know what the plan is, what the focus is, I don't see it posted here. It's a bunch of Dems that aren't unified. Look what happened on the Hegseth vote! WEAK!!! And he's a terrible communicator. Look at his simpleton posts... it's embarrassing.
@SteveSchmidtSES We need more aggressive questioning of ALL Dem senators who have not yet made their positions clear. We want to know where they stand on Schumer.
@riley_rogerson Pelosi, knowing the vote was to happen, STILL CHOSE to return to San Francisco to attend the 30th Annual Veterans Day Celebration organized by Swords to Plowshares, an organization supporting veterans.
WTF!!
@TheTNHoller ALSO not voting: According to her spokesperson, PELOSI returned to San Francisco to attend the 30th Annual Veterans Day Celebration organized by Swords to Plowshares, an organization supporting veterans. SHE CHOSE NOT TO BE PRESENT FOR THE VOTE!!! 😡😡😡
@chuckschumer Now step down. You are not up to taking the party to the future. Its ppl like Colom who will lead now; thanks for everything... PASS THE BATON PLEASE.
@Rep_Stansbury Now return your AIPAC money & cut ties. We are SICK of influence peddling by these special interest organizations. ENOUGH. Stand by voters. That's all we ask WE put you into office not dark money!! DO THE RIGHT THING. That is all we ask.
