Chuck Schumer and his hand-picked sock-puppet Kirsten Gillebrand are my Senators.
Chuck is a media whore - the most dangerous place on earth is to get between him and a TV camera
It worked OK for his career when he was a younger, Jr. Senator from a liberal state.
Now he’s expected to lead, and he’s an absolute disaster.
Can I share this?
Thank you Chuck Schumer
Respectfully to the brilliant global work that hero PDJT47 is doing, by “shutting down” the constitutionally limited power (hint) federal government, Sen. Schumer has now arguably done MORE to at least temporarily restore the federal government's constitutionally limited powers at this point in time than Trump's policies have imo.
After all, given that one of the very few MAIN powers of the peacetime federal government is to deliver the mail, most post-16th and 17th Amendment ratification federal domestic policy now based on stolen state powers, the only clue that early post-American Revolution people would get that the federal government has shut down is late mail delivery.
"Article I, Section 8, Clause 7: To establish Post Offices and post Roads;"
"It is one of a few government agencies explicitly authorized by the Constitution of the United States." (non-FR)
Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States. —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
The congressional record shows that Rep. John Bingham, a constitutional lawmaker, had clarified the federal government's constitutionally limited powers as follows.
”Simply this, that the care of the property, the liberty, and the life of the citizen, under the solemn sanction of an oath imposed by your Constitution, is in the States and not in the federal government [emphases added]. I have sought to effect no change in that respect in the Constitution of the country.” —John Bingham, Congressional. Globe. 1866, page 1292 (see top half of third column)
"From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added]." —United States v. Butler, 1936.
Schumer's temporary but incomplete restoration of the constitutionally limited power federal government is another motivator for Democratic and Republican Trump supporters to support Trump with as many new Constitution-respecting lawmakers that they can elect in 2026 midterm primaries.
In fact, note that patriots could have theoretically elected all-new federal senators twice+ by now since Obama's first midterm elections. Instead, constitutionally low-information patriot voters have been asleep at the wheel.
Cherish, therefore, the spirit of our people, and keep alive their attention. If once they become inattentive to the public affairs, you and I, and Congress and Assemblies, judges and governors, shall all become wolves [emphasis added]. It seems to be the law of our general nature. —Thomas Jefferson (Letter to Edward Carrington January 16, 1787)
WAKE UP PATRIOTS!
Great idea! I called.
Dear Chuck please clean out your office the day before the house vote I want to move in ASAP.

Where are the articles on Trump cutting in this new environments? I expected Trump to have a pile of orders ready to sign today.
