Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) spoke with Al Sharpton over the weekend as we reported, describing the “big, bold change” he intended “no matter what.” He is going to improve “our democracy.”
He means socialist democracy. You will never hear him refer to the United States as a constitutional Republic.
During his interview with Sharpton on MSNBC on Saturday, he said:
“Well, Rev., we have one goal: big, bold change in America,” Schumer said. “We would like the Republicans to join us in some of those things at least, and maybe they will. But we are going to get that change no matter what. We cannot — there is such a demand, three huge issues we have to do: climate, huge issue facing the country, racial and economic inequality, which has gotten worse, not better, which demands change and justice in a big, bold way, and improving our democracy.”
“Making D.C. a state, automatic voter registration, getting rid of Citizens United, all the things embodied in H.R. 1, which the House passed and McConnell would block up, but we’re going to fight to pass it in the Senate,” he added. “That’s why we’ve made it S 1. So, climate, racial inequality, economic inequality, and democracy, improving our democracy, letting people vote much more easily, dealing with D.C. and Puerto Rican statehood, dealing with bad money that flows in. The John Lewis Act, undoing the horrible decisions the court made, which defanged the Voting Rights Act, and that’s why Republicans have gotten away with taking people’s right away to vote for the last four years.”
“What about the filibuster?” Sharpton asked.
“Well, as I’ve said, we will find a way to do big, bold change,” Schumer replied. “And our caucus will sit down and figure it out, but failure is not an option. We must create change.”
I wonder why people keep saying we can win in 2022 and things will change. I see chances as lessening with each executive order, bills like HR-1, and statehood for territories.

They plan to rule over the Dominion with some mandate that doesn’t exist?
How progressive.
Stale obsolete ideas from a 19th century German bum RAT POS?
Once again ever so progressive.
It won’t end how anything thinks that it will and that includes the CPUSA fifth column.
Schmuckster doesn’t scare anyone but the dullards, the rest of the world laughs at Pelousy and the clueless CPUSA clown car cavalcade.
They also no longer make that you Americans are great but your government is crap distinction and external enemies will run circles around the comrades with or without their quisling cooperation.
Bet your bottom dollar on that.
