Left wing Maryland Senator Chris Van Hollen has confirmed he's going to challenge longtime Democrat leader Chuck Schumer to become Senate Majority Leader.
Despite having orchestrated the Democrats' 'blue tsunami' in the midterm elections, Schumer remains unpopular with the party's liberal base.
In an interview with Jen Psaki on MS Now Thursday night, Van Hollen confirmed he will try to usurp Schumer.

Van Hollowhead?
Bernie backed.
Dude, I saw him in concert around 1980. He was running with the devil.
Schumer and every major leader of the Dems is from NY. From Hakeem to AOC, even Mamdani…kinda needs a switch-up or its just one big NY fest.
Van Hollen ... Where have I heard that Dutch surname before?
Oh yes, isn’t he the one who flew down t El Salvador to sip margaritas with “That Man from Maryland”.
That van Hollen is a publicity hound spotlight seeker who did those preposterous photo op stunts of the illegal alien wearing his new plaid sport shirt and drinking with him.
So one smarmy, sneaky politician Schumer gets booted by a nearly identical one. The Dems’ cup runneth over with wet excrement.
After Reagan won 49 states someone mentioned by the law of entropy, that would be the peak since any unified body of political supporters would slowly disintegrate into splinter groups and envious politicians out for themselves in the next election.
Dems have no integrity, honor, decency, respect for God or the love of country that conservatives have. So they are even more prone to splitting apart into warring tribes. Pelosi held them together through fear and blackmail. Will new Dem leaders pull that off? No.
2nd meaning of entropy (after heat transfer and randomness leading to disorder in a system)————————
Lack of order or predictability; gradual decline into disorder.
LOL!...................
Every Democrat politician thinks that they are the smartest person in the room.
It’s easy to see where they get that idea when you consider who else is in the room..............😎
Good one.
Dissension in the ranks of the RATS. Enjoy seeing this.
Right there in old New York, you better believe it, folks You always make it there, you make it anywhere
Oh, those endless purges under communism !
In the movie “DR. ZHIVAGO,” the young communist zealot begins as the ruthless judge of purity of Russian communist comrades and makes sure those whom HE has decided have fallen short of pure communism are taken out and shot.
Later in the movie, we learn HE has been taken out and shot because HE has fallen short of communist standards in the eyes of his more pure comrades.
Is he going to break Kilmar Abrego Garcia out of the Moshannon Valley Processing Center in Phillipsburg, Pennsylvania, and bring him to Washington to work for him?
The Maryland Dad will have a job as a Congressional aide. It’s the least Chris can do since Dad put him on the map.
