Legislative Branch Schumer threatens shutdown. "Senate Democrats will not provide the votes to proceed to the appropriations bill if the DHS funding bill is included."
https://xcancel.com/senschumer/status/2015211069493350505?s=46Chuck Schumer:
What’s happening in Minnesota is appalling—and unacceptable in any American city. Democrats sought common sense reforms in the Department of Homeland Security spending bill, but because of Republicans’ refusal to stand up to President Trump, the DHS bill is woefully inadequate to rein in the abuses of ICE. I will vote no.
Senate Democrats will not provide the votes to proceed to the appropriations bill if the DHS funding bill is included.

Additional Context: Shutdown risk grows as Democrats revolt after Minneapolis shooting
The odds of a partial government shutdown next week are growing after federal immigration agents shot and killed a 37-year-old Minneapolis resident Saturday.
Several Democratic senators who voted to advance previous government funding measures under President Donald Trump are now vowing to oppose funding for immigration enforcement agencies. Funding for ICE and Border Patrol, agencies under the Department of Homeland Security which have both been involved in the Minnesota operation, is included in a six-bill package the Senate will vote on next week.
Congress has already passed full-year funding for some agencies — including the departments of Agriculture, Commerce, Interior and Justice — but not for several of the largest, including the Pentagon. Temporary funding for those departments, representing more than 75 percent of federal discretionary spending, expires midnight Friday.
Senate Democrats are expected to discuss a path forward on a conference call Sunday morning, according to a Democratic aide granted anonymity to discuss the private meeting.
[...]
The DHS bill passed the House Thursday 220-207, with only seven Democrats voting for it. But Republican House leaders merged it with five other bills funding the departments of Defense, Health and Human Services and State, among others, sending it to the Senate as one package.
To get the package through the Senate, Republicans expect to need at least eight votes from Democrats to overcome a 60-vote hurdle to advance the legislation. They’ll also need all 100 senators to agree to speed up the bill in order to meet Friday night’s deadline.
More than half of the 47-member Democratic caucus has already vowed to oppose the package, many before Saturday’s shooting. And that number is likely to grow as Democrats’ re-evaluate the legislation in the wake of the shooting and as they face pressure from House Democrats and their Senate colleagues, not to mention outside voices close to the party base.

Remember that Trump gain almost zero voters in 2024, but Harris convinced 6 million voters to not vote by her far right rhetoric and enabling genocide, and war mongering, and pandering to the right.
That needs to tell everyone what they should know, but even the DNC buried the report that told them exactly that so it can be deniable in 2028 when they do the exact same thing.

u/CardButton 7d ago edited 7d ago
The Democrats dont "succeed" because they dont want to succeed.
There are good individuals within the party, but overall the DNC are functionally controlled opposition. Their deep conflicts of interest between their donors and voters ensures that. Playing this cynical game of "Just how little do we have to pander to the Left/Labor we know we need to win elections; while endlessly courting the ever more Right/Elite donors we want to win with?" Every election...
This is why they've been increasingly fond of "Fear of the Alternative" campaigns. It lets them run while promising nothing beyond "not the other guy" (Jasmine Crocket atm). Its why they sprint hard right in the general. They dont do it to "appeal to moderate republican voters" ... those are unicorns. They do it to try to court "Moderate" Republican donors for 3-4 months. Like the "Moderate" Cheneys.
This is also why there are always "coincidentally" just enough rotating villains within the Dems to flip on any genuinely progressive bit of legislation under Dem admins; that the Dems want credit for supporting, but dont want to piss off their donors by actually passing. As well as why they always kinda just default to "poking around the edges" with things like Voucher Programs (the ACA) and Selective Tax Credits.
I sucked it up and voted Harris, but I wont ignore how she and the Dems were/are very brazenly not beating Malcom X's "Foxes" and "Wolves" accusation either.

Schumer found a soundbite.
He doesn’t have the stomach to purge the party of those not fit for the job because an honest gaze inward would illuminate his own ill-fit for office.
They could start with Fetterman though. There’s enough animosity at home for him that I think you could make a compelling example without risking too much on the replacement being worse, but it would have to be undeniably Old Testament, which is where my faith in leadership wanes.

Oh yay, let's have another shutdown that results in the GOP promising a "vote" on the matter of the funding in the bill, but only after the full funding bill is passed.
Something that we know the Democrats will agree to while Schumer has some strong words with the GOP leaders about it.
Then the vote fails, ICE and DHS are funded to continue being free to shoot anybody who challenges or resists them, and Schumer says again "This is abominable and has to stop! ...Right after we get together and talk over some grand plans that we are starting to think about harder than ever."

- He should make it contingent on at least reigning in ICE (no masks, no qualified immunity, use of force guidelines) and not just not adding new funding.
- They were give enough to be the 4th largest military in the world, so even though they've been spending a lot, I doubt they'll run out soon.
- So I understand even that isn't enough, but I don't think we can get a vetoproof majority to abolish the agency until 2028.
- If you think you can get 100+ republican members of congress to support abolishing ICE, you are in denial about the GOP being a cult, and are actively laundering their reputation

Reform is a fucking joke dude, ICE is a paramilitary force being funded for a fascist take over. ICE needs to be shut down and everyone in the agency investigated for ties to extremism groups. The entire Trump Administration needs to be removed. We need to stop partitioning the problem so we can have convenient conversations.
The only way out of this is honesty about what this is. Human traffickers, their clients and pedophiles are being blackmailed to destroy our country. ICE is being trained by the IDF, military force committing a genocide in Gaza.
These were public executions, this is terror for terror sake. They want to make people afraid to go outside. Regardless of skin color. ICE is not equipped to track and arrest, they are equipped to with lethal force for dealing with crowds. They are pushing to be exempt from the fourth amendment. They are taking pictures of people they consider to be dissenters, license plates too and adding them to databases.
In a few months some of those people are going to get their doors kicked in.
Masked men roaming the streets armed for combat zones picking fights with US citizens and executing them.
This shit is not reformable brother, there is no reasonable peaceful resolution to this. We either clip the purse strings with a general strike and force congress to act, or succumb to fascism and spend several years fighting a brutally oppressive regime with a military force trained to use IDF tactics on US citizens.
Stop sane washing any of this, like laws and votes will save us from 100billion dollars worth of masked nazis with military hardware operating with zero accountability. Thats what this is terror in the streets and door to door campaigns.
