Chuck Schumer

Oma suunnitelma oli tehdä ammennuksia, mutta jos he tekevät ammennuksia, jos he olisivat valmiita tehdä ammennuksia, se menisi takaisin puoleen ja kuka tietää, mitä ihanaa olisi tapahtunut. Se olisi voinut olla, että se olisi laitettu 13-kohdalle, johon kaveri tuli. Ja niin me sanoimme, että me emme voi, jos sinä haluat tehdä sitä, me voimme vahvistaa sinua, vahvistaa sinua järjestämään ja vahvistamaan lakia. Ja he vahvistivat.

En usko, että hän ei pysty valitsemaan, kun vain yksi valitsi sen vastaan. Hän voi pitää sen. Ja hän ei ole epäilemättä nyt, koska ammennukset ovat loppuun, koska mitä me teimme, me pysähtyimme heitä tekemään mitään ammennuksia. Ja sitten viimeisenä, sinä keskustelit tästä aiemmin, mutta nyt tämä täytyy olla valittu Trumpin kanssa. Onko siellä...

Yes, Ben, that has to be signed by Trump. You know, he said he would. He also, you know, told the Republicans to vote for it. But who knows where he's at? Obviously, let's conclude this way. He has something to hide. Everyone knows it. Every American, just about every American who follows any of this knows it. If he didn't have anything to hide, why wouldn't he have released them long ago? If he didn't have anything to hide, then why is he lying about them?

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.

Donald Trump appears to have chickened out on the Epstein scandal.

He's caved.

It's a complete and total surrender.

Because as Democrats, we made clear from the very beginning, the survivors and the American people deserve full and complete transparency.

This is a bipartisan effort to make sure that consistent with what the survivors have requested

that this full and complete transparency and every single predator who may be in those Justice Department files doesn't escape accountability.

The Democratic leader, Mr. President.

America is in the midst of a Republican-made health care crisis.

that fails to address the health care crisis.

I don't understand how a Democratic senator goes, wow, we won really big.

Let me cave now.
