Wednesday

He asked her about the rumor that Chuck Schumer is going to blame AOC and the progressive Democrats if the shutdown goes bad. He asked her point blank if it's because she may run against Schumer for his Senate seat.

Democrats better be united, 3 Senators broke ranks and voted for the CR.

Should have taken this stand back in March before the Big Ugly Death Bill became law, Krasnov got everything he wanted, why does he care to negotiate now?
