You know what else would help?

Replacing Schumer and Jeffries NOW with progressive leaders. Both have failed terribly to meet this moment in history.

Unfortunately, neither one is strong enough. We need fighters!

Well, for starters, not caving in to on the Shutdown last year.

Then maybe getting on the right side on Gaza/Lebanon/Iran. They should be pressing for a complete cutoff of ALL aid to Israel unless/until Israel ceases their aggression and genocidal campaign.

YES. It’s like having Merrick Garland as leader.
Their place on the political spectrum doesn’t matter.It’s ability to lead

Replace Schumer w Kelly. Deputy Ossoff
Replace Jeffries w Khanna. Deputy Stansbury

Kelly is a military commander. He was taught leadership. Khanna has emerged as the leader

I think their position on the political spectrum is enormously important. The leader must be leading in the right direction (which of course is subjective).

While I agree that Kelly would be a strong leader, I firmly believe we need strong progressives.

… among other problems.

1) Both seem to still think that Dems can/should do business as usual, in spite of the fact that Trump, Congressional Republicans, and SCOTUS have crapped all over business as usual.
2) They’re not leading. And we really need the progressive wing to take over leadership.

AIPAC? They’re its own trouble. I’ve a piece in the works — check against their personal public filings
