Chuck Schumer

I told him that every member of Congress, so many members of Congress, Democrat and Republican,

had a right to see it, wanted to see it, and should see it.

The choice is simple for them.

Vote with Democrats to keep costs down or vote to send premiums through the roof.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer assailed the series of extreme truth social posts by President Trump.

That includes resharing a post calling for the hanging of congressional Democrats who previously served in the military and intelligence branches.

The backlash comes days after a video posted by Democratic Senators Mark Kelly, Alyssa Slotkin, and Representatives Jason Crow, Chrissy Houlihan, Chris DiLuzio, and Maggie Goodlander.

In it, they said military and intelligence members can refuse the administration's illegal orders.

In an extremely rare scene in Republican-controlled Washington, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer moved to approve the bipartisan bill under a voice vote with no objections.

House Republican leaders said they voted to approve the plan with the expectation the Senate would amend it to address their concerns.

However, Senate Majority Leader John Thune said after the overwhelming House vote of 427 to 1, that was no longer necessary.

And this way, the senators did not have to have their votes recorded.

In a major reversal, Trump in recent days said he'd sign the bill when it reaches his desk.

Is there an objection? Without objection, so ordered. The Senate has now passed the Epstein bill as soon as it comes over from the House.

Kyllä. Se tarkoittaa sitä, että senaatti on lähinnä valmistautunut sen. Kun Jumala antaa sen meille, se mennään presidentille. Ei ammennuksista, rajoituksista tai muuta. Se on kutsuttu valmistautumiseen. Se tarkoittaa sen, että sen on valmistautunut, vaikka ennen kuin sen oli valmistautunut meille. Tämä on erittäin hyvää uutta. Olemme kertoneet republikaaneille, että heidän pitäisi pysyä rajoittamaan sen.

He olivat epäileviä siitä, he tunnevat voimaa, he katsoivat valinnan. He olivat keskustelleet paljon, ja minä sanoin, että katsokaa, 5.00 on loppu. Minä menen puolelle ja pyydän yksinkertaisen yksinkertaisuuden, että tämä käsitellään, että tämä käsitellään. Voit seurata, jos haluat, ja tehdä sitä sinun rauhassa. Ja he pysyivät. Joten mahtavaa on, että nyt puolue on käsitellyt sen, Senaatti on kuitenkin käsitellyt sen, se menee presidentin puolueelle. Sanoisin, että meillä on paljon töitä tehdä.

First, who knows how long the House will try to hold it. We should put pressure on Johnson to send it right over to us. Second, the president has said he'll sign it, but who the hell knows with him? He can change his mind on a whim. But third, and maybe most important, and I just had a meeting of ten senators to discuss this, we've got to make sure we get all of the Epstein-fonds.

He can't fuck around with this. They can't say, oh, we'll give you this, but there are legal reasons we can't give you that. And we are going to be pursuing them relentlessly to get everything. Because I don't trust this administration. I don't trust Bondi. I don't trust Kash Patel. I don't trust the president. And they can screw around with this. It'll be all of our jobs to be on them and make sure that we get everything.
