Jesus they're compromising on their already pre-comprimised "demands"

Folding faster than a wet paper bag.

Schumer and Jeff are pathetic spineless cowards unfit for public office. Better doormats than anything else.

Wow! This is FANTASTIC! It's an Election Year and we have FULL CONTROL over Whether or Not one of the MOST HATED ORGANIZATIONS IN THE US and even the WORLD gets Funding or NOT? This is SUCH an Easy decision! Let's give them EVERYTHING they want with NO Stipulations!

-Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries (who has NO Primary Challenger!)!

Hakeem Jeffries (who has NO Primary Challenger!)!

What the fuck? Does no one in his district have $500 or whatever the filing fee is??

No democrats want to challenge him because they agree with him and the DSA backed off from potentially doing so to "not rock the boat" like the useless Democrat entryists they are.

Yea the one thing mandami disappointed me with. Saying no one should primary Jefferies was stupid. He very much should be primaired.

Journalist and commentator Adam Johnson said it was a collection of “mostly cosmetic, pointless, unenforceable, or actively harmful ‘reforms,’” with some—including the requirement for judicial warrants and a ban on racial profiling—already being mandated by the Constitution but flouted by agents regardless.

He described it as outrageous that Democrats were demanding “zero reduction in DHS’ obscene budget which... tripled, just 12 months ago.”

But... But... But, there is so much nuance to decide like can the coppie woppies wear masks when dealing with the big bad cartel? Chuckie just say we need to figure out when they can and it is all fixed.

It’s almost like they don’t represent their constituents.

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

They still have the pictures of Chuck and those boys, apparently.

[–] MedicPigBabySaver@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Utterly useless. POS.
