Democrats Demand Schumer Exit: ‘Time to Go, Chuck!’

In a dazzling display of intra-Democrat drama, House reps like Becca Balint (D-Vt.), Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.), and retiring Chuy García (D-Ill.) teamed up with lesser-known heroes like Shri Thanedar (D-Mich.) in shouting 'Chuck, please step down!' all after Schumer’s uncomfortable "no" vote on a government-reopening deal that still crushed House Dem hopes. The deal? A Senate promise for ACA tax credit votes in the future—which sounds less like leadership and more like a group therapy session on stalled progress. Chuck’s personal resistance collided with House member frustration that sounds like a broken record of 'we need something different,' likely from constituents just wanting lunch, not political standstills.
