The details of the Cowardly 8’s great deal keep looking shittier and shittier by the day. Senators Schumer and Durbin should have some honor and step aside for some real fighters who are pissed off like the Dem base.

although she was constantly calling Meadows to act and is allegedly responsible for the buses that brought the insurrectionists to D.C. The only reason for the GOP to insert this is because it was discovery to be used in court proceedings against them! There seems to be NO justice or laws now

These provisions will trickle out over time and make this capitulation even worse, if that's possible. I am a proud, lifelong Dem. I take my inspiration from FDR. These Senators are the furthest thing from FDR as one could possibly be. I am seriously considering leaving the party. I can't anymore.

If we leave the party, it makes it easier for the corrupted GOP and fascists to build their strength. We won't be able to vote in the primaries! We have to pull through and vote those ppl out who are traitors and self-serving. This political stunt cost us dearly...but we can not give up!
