For years I have been saying and writing about how useless Dems have become…..their major concern is money not the people they pretend to care about.
Now the Senate minority leader has proven my point….
Progressive critics of Senate Minority Chuck Schumer had fresh reasons to speak out Sunday after the powerful New York Democrat said that “one of many of [his] jobs” in the US Senate was to fight for ongoing taxpayer-funded military and financial assistance to the Israeli government, a position that has been the focus of growing protest among rank-and-file party members and the public at large in the face of Israel’s brutal genocide against the Palestinian people of Gaza.
“I have many jobs as [Senate] leader… and one is to fight for aid to Israel — all the aid that Israel needs,” Schumer said at a gathering of Jewish leaders and community members in New York on Sunday.
“I will continue to fight for it.,” Schumer continued. “We delivered more security assistance to Israel, our ally, than ever, ever before.”
According to Jacob Kornbluh, who provided footage of the remarks while reporting for The Forward, Schumer told the audience that his support for Jewish security funding will only continue growing under his leadership, calling it his “baby.”
“As long as I’m in the Senate,” Schumer said, “this program will continue to grow from strength to strength, and we won’t let anyone attack it or undo it.”

Warning Strong Words To Follow
Seriously you asshole….your job is not fucking Israel….your goddamn job is to serve this country not some sandy shithole half a world away.
This is the problem with congressional Dems….they are owned by lobbyists and special interests and we can thank that douchebag Clinton for this situation.
Time to take Schumer out and put him to pasture with the rest of the manure.
People Stop fucking trusting Democrats….they have not done anything substantial in decades….they are spineless and worthless lumps of crap.
Schumer is the poster child for how your mean NOTHING to these assholes….you are only needed for your worthless vote and then cast aside for the buckets of cash that awaits them once they are sworn in….
That is not my damn idea of representation….how about you?
+++Before some mindless asshole accuses me of antisemitism…let me state now….I do not give a shit about religious leanings….belief whatever you choose +++
Find a candidate that will do something constructive and not these fools that only see dollar signs or have some lame ass religious agenda.
I have had it with this puppets….none will see my vote…..Hell I would sooner vote for my dog than anyone of these worthless turds.
I apologize for the language but there are times that it needs to be said in anger.

I don’t understand this fixation on Israel either. The job of the Congress is the protection and welfare of the citizens of the US. Period. Or should be. The US has given Israel something like $400 billion since 1950, and that’s just direct cash aid, that doesn’t count things like weapons and other forms of support, or the cost of dealing with all of the armed conflicts caused by Israel’s dealings with its neighbors since it was created in 1948. Actual total cost is probably closer to a trillion dollars if you add in everything like the military presence we maintain in the area, etc. And the grand result of all of this US interference in the MIddle East? Absolutely nothing. If anything our interference in the area has actually made the situation much, much worse.
GF AIPAC has lots of cash and can buy these slugs with no problem…Schumer just proved the the Dems are useless and we need to be rid of this. .chuq
Most affluent western countries are little more than puppets of Israel. Israel knows where the skeletons are buried, has possession of the photos and videos to blackmail the influential people and politicians, and all of those involved are self-serving to try to save their own skins. The US and the UK should both ditch their flags and fly the flag of Israel, along with many other countries involved in this monumental cover-up.
Best wishes, Pete.
I refuse to recognize Israel as anything but a drain on our resources…..chuq
We need fresh thinking, not these tired politicians who say the same thing – even though it doesn’t resonate with ANYONE
Ever so true…..and sadly the voter falls for it almost every election….sucks. chuq
Fresh thinking is how we got into this mess in the first place… we need people with experience willing to take on the most thankless jobs ever devised.
The thinking has never been fresh….it has at best been moderately interesting….until they rid themselves of all the exterior influence the thinking will seldom be fresh. chuq
knuckle-dragging neanderthals
Yep chuq
