Say What? Schumer Makes Troubling Statement About | Political News

Sen. Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) has been in scorching water with the Democrat Party ever since he determined to cave to Republicans and President Donald Trump on the problem of the Continuing Resolution back in mid-March.

Though he went on a media tour shortly thereafter to strive and clarify his supposed “bravery” in doing so, it did not help issues, with the entrenched Senator having to postpone guide promotion tour dates soon after, with his handlers citing “security concerns” as the rationale why.

Schumer also angered middle-class voters by sneering about business homeowners who need to keep the money they labored exhausting to earn as an alternative of forking over growing quantities to Uncle Sam. He said in a March “View” interview that, “You know what their attitude is, ‘I made my money all by myself. How dare your government take my money from me?’ I don’t want to pay taxes.”

Now, with the incident involving the House Democrats from New Jersey at Newark’s Delaney Hall ICE detention facility being entrance and middle in the information, Schumer apparently thinks he is discovered a successful difficulty that will convey disaffected get together members and voters back to his facet.

On Tuesday, Schumer was requested about stories that arrests could possibly be coming for New Jersey Democrat Reps. Robert Menendez Jr, Bonnie Watson Coleman, and LaMonica McIver for obstructing arrest and allegedly placing palms on federal officers while making an attempt to storm the middle on “oversight” grounds without arranging a tour in advance, the latter of which is customary protocol according to the Department of Homeland Security. 

Instead of condemning the actions of the House members in query – at least one of whom inadvertently admitted they broke the law by making an attempt to impede the arrest of Newark Mayor Ras Baraka (D), Schumer selected to gaslight the state of affairs, calling it a “peaceful protest” that the lawmakers is perhaps punished for by the Trump administration:

Excuse me, but this did not seem like a “peaceful protest” to me:

Perhaps even more troubling than the actions of the Democrat House members is the very fact that this is at least the second time in one month that Schumer has refused to condemn violence at leftist-orchestrated “protests.”

Here’s what he stated in early April when requested about the violence at Tesla dealerships, which reportedly has included the use of weapons, incendiary units, and arson.

“I can’t talk about Tesla, but Elon Musk is a disaster for America, and America knows it,” Schumer said before insulating himself in an elevator. “Look at Wisconsin.”

As I’ve stated before, going by the Democrat Playbook on these issues, “silence = violence,” proper? The lack of robust denouncements on the violent actions of the Democrats at the unlawful immigrant detention middle and against Tesla places may be very telling of Democrats, and not in a great way.

Schumer could also be enjoying the dodge-and-weave sport because he does not need to additional alienate those on his facet who have turned on him (and who could also be mulling a 2028 major problem). But contemplating how just a few short years in the past he appeared to advocate for violence against pro-life Supreme Court Justices, but is now turning a blind eye when inciteful Democrat rhetoric is manifesting itself into civil and prison actions, he should not be stunned if this comes back to chunk his get together in all the methods it hurts come the 2026 midterms.
