Seems like the leadership is only about protecting the ratcheting establishment 😬

Things may change after the election. The make-up of the House and Senate Democrats looks like it will be much more progressive. They will most likely replace Jeffries and Schumer.

@mastodonmigration @dianea Let us hope. Jeffries and Schumer are not remotely up to the task at hand. I think my congresswoman, Jill Tokuda, would likely vote for a new leader

Hopefully, we can reverse the direction of that ratchet into the direction of progression 💪

You may have seen this before, but here is an analysis of Schumer support from back in August of a potential whip count for the 2027 Senate assuming the Dems win a bunch of seats. The detail is in the subsequent reply. Clearly Schumer's days are numbered.
