Sean Connery voice: You don't bring a strongly worded letter to a fascist overthrow.

I don’t have much hope for Schumer and Jeffries. Nor do I see a coalition of Dems demanding a change of leadership. Without that change, we will see more of the same underwhelming statements that value collegiality over accountability.

Democratic leadership proclaiming publicly that our present corrupt and incompetent Supreme Court (no one is above the law? Oh, except that one) IS, in fact, corrupt and incompetent -- I like it! Remember that all FDR had to do to get the New Deal judicially blessed was to threaten SCOTUS with expansion.

I am pretty disgusted with Schumer and Jeffries. They even have role models (as you pointed out) who make it clear what they should be saying. My mom used to say “Lead, follow, or get out of the way.” These guys seem to have abdicated the “Leader” part of their jobs, and I can’t figure out what they’re following.
