Schumer accused of ‘inciting far-left activists’ after protest of luncheon featuring NY rep turns physical
Fox News via NY Post ^ | 3/21/25 | Aubrie Spady, Elizabeth Elkind

A disruption over the Trump administration’s cost-cutting efforts turned physical after protesters crashed an event in a red New York district, prompting a Republican lawmaker to raise concerns over Democratic efforts to “organize protests” in GOP districts.

Protesters disrupted a private luncheon hosted by the Rockland Business Association on Thursday, targeting one of the speakers, Rep. Mike Lawler, R-N.Y., over Republican efforts to cut federal spending.

A video obtained by Fox News Digital shows the protesters, who had bought tickets to the event, screaming, “Lawless Lawler” while holding up a sign that read, “Elon’s Puppet” in an apparent reference to cost-cutting efforts by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).

The disruption quickly turned physical as the protesters wrestled with the event attendees, who were trying to put an end to the disruption.

Lawler’s team, responding to the protest, pointed to comments by Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., where he said that Democrats were sending people to Republican districts to oppose their policies and make them “face the consequences.”

“We are mobilizing in New York. We have people going to the Republican districts and going after these Republicans who are voting for this and forcing them to either change their vote or face the consequences,” Schumer said during a recent interview with PBS.

“This is a long, relentless fight that we fight every day. And I am confident that we will bring Trump’s popularity, numbers and strength down if we keep at it, and keep at it, and keep at it.”

The Rats are not going down without a fight. They will use every tool that they have. It’s going to get ugly. The Judges were/are only part of it.

Just laugh at them and mock them. They want to turn the event into a “Jerry Springer” show

Where are all of the ETHICS MORONS Congress is supposed to have? The babies on the left side of Capistol Hill are out of control and the majority of the bass turds aren’t even Americans. They are freeloading foreign refugees.

Yup. The control of the federal government is the only thing that keeps the American left afloat. Take that away from them and it’s all she wrote. No one ever said taking down the corrupt system would be easy, and unfortunately we have some on our side who are getting antsy because of the ginned up public outrage being manufactured and stoked by Democrats and the media.

Democrats can’t rebuild until they tame their lunatic wing
and they can’t figure out how to do that. Dems were just polled about future presidential candidates and Harris took it easily. They haven’t had a leader since Obama, he finished off the party as a force and left it drained. They have no “bench” and no progressive is going to win in America these days.

Because they are nazis. If republicans had any balls or brains they would all be saying it. Democrats are not nice moral people, they are hateful intolerant thugs and they like being thugs.

IMHO not an exaggeration.

That's the ticket. Forcing people to comply with your demands is a sure fire way to win them over to your side.

Isn't that the actual definition of terrorism?

The repulsive Schumer has been and is an ignorant wokeist politician. He has the unenviable ability to make honest people sick at their stomachs. In this his twin sister Nancy is similarly endowed.

These two speak as though they’re chewing cuds and hurling inane gaggles of words thinking their pontificating is special.

But they’re both typical of the entire herd of Democrat (never ad ‘ic’ on this) cattle. Their phony elitist club members view them contemptuously and as expandable while the rest of us view them with hatred!

I5 still is but ONLY WHEN a conservative does it. Blm and antifa burned down city blocks, murdered people, destroyed businesses, and the lying feckless left called it a “summer of love”,

but, when Jan 6 peacefully protested, and got murdered for it, the left declared it was the worst acts of vullence the nation has ever endured, and when peaceful protestors PRAYED outside abortion clinics, they were labeled as “Domestic Terrorists” by the lying feckless left. Judges imposed 3xtremely ha4sh sentences for even stepping foot onto the grounds outside the building, and demanded that those who were arrested denounce pres Trump and stop their support for him or face harsher sent3nces.

The left are psychotic demon driven criminals who unfortunately have the majority of powerful entities behind them to protect them when they commit acts of violence and try to destroy the republic.

Now is the time to appoint a special prosecutor to seriously investigate why Congress has spent $200 million on 200 settlements relating to affairs and sexual assault allegations since 1998. Congress has a slush fund, made up of tax dollars, that is used to pay off & silence their alleged sexual assault victims.

[[ Democrats are not nice moral people, they are hateful intolerant thugs and they like being thugs.]]

And they look for ANY excuse to prove what thugs they really are, knowing g that they will be protected by the msm, sorts, and courts if it comes to that. They relish any opportunity to erupt in rage and strike out at the right. They are haystack in search of a match
