    Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) sharply criticized Republicans for removing federal subsidies for Planned Parenthood from the reconciliation bill, saying "they want to rip away health care from millions more Americans. Without these subsidies up to 200 Planned Parenthood centers could close. More than 90% of these closures would be in states where abortion is legal for the voters of the state." Sen. Patty Murray (D-Wash) said "there is not a day that ends in 'y' where Republicans are not trying to ban abortion here in Congress. We are talking about women left with no options for the care...

    Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., unintentionally explained why pro-lifers should support President Donald Trump’s “big, beautiful” budget bill. “Under the Republican bill, 200 Planned Parenthood centers would close,” Schumer, the Senate’s top Democrat, said at a pro-abortion press conference on Tuesday. “More than 90% of these closures would be in states where abortion is legal for the voters of the state.” In the budget reconciliation bill, the House GOP removed Medicaid funding for Planned Parenthood, the largest provider of abortions in the country. The effort had been supported by dozens of pro-life legislators from around the country. The move...

    House Agriculture Committee Chair Glenn Thompson (R-Penn) defended the proposed cuts to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), saying "SNAP was never intended to be the entitlement welfare that Democrats have turned it into. Our Bill is putting it back on course by implementing 20 hours per week work requirements for able-bodied adults between the ages of 18 and 64 years old, excluding candy, snacks, junk food, and soda from being eligible for SNAP purchases, booting illegal migrants from the benefit rolls and shifting 5% of the cost burden of the program from the federal government to the states."

The Senate Majority Leader from New York, a fierce critic of DOGE who’s called Musk a liar and a hypocrite and accused the Tesla CEO of “sabotaging” critical benefits and a “hostile takeover” of federal government, pirouetted on Tuesday, declaring, without irony: “He’s right.”

    “Squad” member Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez would trounce Sen. Chuck Schumer in a primary – as the Democratic leader is “bleeding support” from his party and Jewish voters, a stunning new poll found. Socialist Ocasio-Cortez leads five-term incumbent Schumer by a 54%-33% among likely Democratic voters in the Big Apple, according to the poll conducted by Honan Strategy Group for the Jewish Voters Action Network. AOC, 35, who now services as a member of the House of Representatives, leads Schumer among Jewish Democrats 45%-33% with 17% undecided, the poll found. “This is a massive wake-up call for Schumer,” said Maury Litwack, co-founder...

    CNN analyst Brian Stelter questioned the timing the announcement that former President Biden has cancer, calling it "extraordinary. Cancer isn't a disease you get suddenly. It develops over an extended period of time over many years. Since presidents have physical exams every year his doctor had to have known for some time that he had the disease. Why was his terminal case of the disease only made public at this time?" Stelter proceeded to answer his own question by observing that "the story that was pushed off the front page by the cancer announcement was the release of the video...

    Several top Democrats have deflected questions about former President Biden's cognitive decline, as alleged in multiple books about the 2024 election, telling the media that they're looking to move forward and not look back. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., dismissed the questions surrounding the latest book to come out with allegations of the president's decline on CNN, MSNBC and during a press conference on Tuesday. During an interview with CNN's Kasie Hunt, Schumer was asked, "Did you really not have any idea that he was not fit to serve a second term?" "Kasie, we’re looking forward. We have the...

    In a ceremony held in Paris on July 4, 1884, the completed Statue of Liberty is formally presented to the U.S. ambassador as a commemoration of the friendship between France and the United States. The idea for the statue was born in 1865, when the French historian and abolitionist Édouard de Laboulaye proposed a monument to commemorate the upcoming centennial of U.S. independence (1876), the perseverance of American democracy and the liberation of the nation’s slaves. By 1870, sculptor Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi had come up with sketches of a giant figure of a robed woman holding a torch—possibly based on...

    Interesting how there has been a significant lessenimg of the radical rhetoric from some leftist Denocrat mouthpieces. Pelosi has all but disappeared. Cheney has been quiet. Others have settled way down too. Only Jasmine Crockett has been going off inviting trouble for herself. Someone needs to give it to her.

    This week, Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson condemned criticism of judges who have slapped injunctions on most of the Trump Administration's efforts to implement the policies supported by voters who elected him to be president, calling this criticism "a direct threat to our democracy." "Judges are the 'philosopher kings' envisioned by Plato's Republic and installed by our Founding Persons as the ultimate authority for determining what laws are allowed in Article III of the US Constitution," she asserted in a speech to a conference of judges in Puerto Rico. "Unlike the other branches of government, the judiciary is only...

    Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer on Tuesday attempted to trash President Trump over bogus poll numbers. The fake news media attacked President Trump this week with reports claiming he has the lowest 100 day approval rating in 80 years. “Twice as many people said President Trump deserves a grade of F rather than an A for how he’s handled his first 100 days in office, according to a new NPR/PBS News/Marist poll,” NPR reported. “Forty-five percent said Trump deserves the failing mark, compared to 23% who would pass him with flying colors. It’s understandable that partisans would have strongly polarized...

Host Dana Bash said, “Your colleague from Georgia, Senator Jon Ossoff told voters at a town hall that he strongly agrees that President Trump should be impeached. Do you agree with him? Would that be a priority if Democrats were to take back Congress?”

    Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) said Thursday on MSNBC’s “Chris Jansing Reports” that if President Donald Trump disobeyed a Supreme Court order, “extraordinary action will be necessary.” Jansing said, “The Supreme Court said the administration must facilitate the return of Kilmer Abrego Garcia, who was mistakenly deported to El Salvador. That has not happened. Are we at the point, Senator, where you feel extraordinary action is warranted?” Schumer said, “Look, the case will be back to the Supreme Court, they sent it down to the lower court judge. But if the president disobeys a Supreme Court order, extraordinary action...

    With President Donald Trump’s former reality TV show “The Apprentice,” streaming on Amazon Prime as of last month, politically astute viewers across the political spectrum have zeroed in on an episode from when Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-NY, now one of the president’s biggest political detractors, praised his fellow New Yorker as a business prodigy. During Season 5, Episode 8, of “The Apprentice” in 2006, contestants were given a challenge — as was typical during each episode — and the winners of said challenge got the chance to fly to the nation’s capital and have breakfast with Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-NY...
