Chuck Schumer wags finger at GOP senators delaying infrastructure bill

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer on Sunday wagged his finger at Republicans who he says aren’t moving fast enough on approving the $1.2 trillion infrastructure spending plan.

“I said yesterday, ‘We can do this the easy way or the hard way.’ Yesterday, it appeared that some Republicans would like to do it the hard way,” Schumer (D-New York) said on the Senate floor during a rare Sunday session.

His comments came after Sen. Bill Hagerty (R-Tenn.) said Saturday that he wouldn’t “fast-track” the bill before the standard 30 hours of debate on it was up. That decision, if not reversed, would delay the final vote on the package until Monday or Tuesday.

Schumer said that while he wants to push along the spending package for roads, bridges and transit more quickly, he needs senators on the other side of the aisle to “cooperate.” Still, if some holdouts don’t comply, the body will soon pass the bill, anyway, he said.

When Moses came down from the mountain and saw how his people strayed,he and Aaron had a lot of work to do. This country is going to have to be cleansed in the same manner.

Following his trial, conviction and sentencing, the only thing Chuckie should be wagging is his carcass as it slowly rots off the noose.

A five-blade rotary Guillotine is so much more efficient than a hanging. So many traitors. So little time.

Schumer is nothing but an arrogant, petulant child in a man’s body.

But hanging tried and convicted Demonicrats allows time for the lines and lines of patriots waiting to come by and spit (or whatever) on the rotting carcasses.

And, not to worry, there are enough utility poles in the U.S. to accomodate the traitors.

Schmuckie wants a BIG “Slush fund” to pay all the professional vote-thieves that Dems need to “win” the 2022 and 2024 elections.

Let’s get it right.
