Chuck Schumer has finally intimated he may actually DO SOMETHING about the current political situation. Whether he actually does, and if so, whether he stands his ground or folds like cheap suit, is yet to be seen.
I hate to say "I told you so", but I told you so. Democratic party politicians have needed to DO THINGS, not write "stongly worded letters", for a long time now. Even Minnesota Governor Walz has been sending out sternly worded press releases and soundbites today - for jebus' sake, you're the governor. You don't say "Somebody should do something!". You get on with it, and you DO SOMETHING.
A 2-post thread I did last April. It was already clear to me that the slide into fascism was complete; it wasn't something they could work to prevent at that point.
I weep for the American experiment, and the good American people. The MAGAs, accurately described by Ken White as "shitty people, shitty values, shitty culture", can get fucked.
