"Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer are architects of the crisis that allowed Trump's fascism to arise and succeed," argued one progressive organizer. "They have zero credibility to be leading the fights we face today."

House Democratic lawmakers reportedly used a closed-door meeting earlier this week to vent their frustrations with progressive advocacy groups that have been driving constituent calls and pressuring the party to act like a genuine opposition force in the face of the Trump administration’s authoritarian assault on federal agencies and key programs.

    If you can’t break filibuster then you can’t pass anything without the opposition’s graces.

    You could change the senate rules with 50. Stop using the filibuster as an excuse.

      The DNC didnt even have 50 in the last decade.
