Appointing a cruel troll like Stephen Miller as Chief of Staff shows that the White House isnโ€™t serious about working with the new Congress to find sensible solutions. It's clear Trump is going full speed ahead with his agenda of hatred, & cruelty. He'll wreak havoc until the bitter end.

Schumer backed Angie Craig (-20), Haley Stevens (-1), Alexander Vindman (-13), and Janet Mills (-52, dropped out before primary) and they all lost their primaries. 18 months ago, Schumerโ€™s post-2024 strategy was to allow the administration to self-destruct instead of challenging it.

Now which Senator is most responsive for methodically planning and excuting the electoral rout that we just saw? Somehow I don't think it's Chris Van Hollen.

Next year, Americans are expected to see the biggest jump in health insurance costs in 15 years. We need healthcare reform NOW. People are dying while waiting for it.

Chris Van Hollen has already shown us what kind of Senate leader heโ€™d be. He got on a plane to El Salvador to see Kilmar Abrego Garcรญa face to face and make sure he was okay. Heโ€™s been fighting the fights Democrats need to fight. I think heโ€™s ready to lead Senate Democrats.

People who claim that Schumer enabled a new wave with nine flips have not spoken to the actual candidates, nearly all of whom say (off the record for understandable reasons) that they believe they won _in spite of_ and not because of Chuck Schumer.
