Congress should pass military aid for Ukraine and tough sanctions against Russia. Why? Because it is strategically and morally right. If the President vetoes, then it is on him in the history books. Congress needs to stand on the right side of history.
US midterm impact on Ukraine policy
Democrat wins in Congress still face major challenges in changing assistance to Ukraine in the face of Presidential opposition

Hakeem Jeffries, @RepJeffries
There are 14 yr old girls pregnant in an ICE Facility that were NOT when they were detained. We want justice and prosecutions, not reaching across the aisle!

For five years, Clarence Thomas told the government his wife made nothing.
She made more than $680,000.
You’d be in trouble for that. He kept his lifetime seat. He shouldn't. He needs to be impeached. Agreed?

Y’all need to stop trying to turn this Hakeem Jeffries situation into a race issue. For many of us, it’s about his unwavering support for Israel while our tax dollars fund what we believe is genocide. And you conveniently leave out that we don’t want Chuck Schumer either. Schumer isn’t Black. The opposition is for the same reason. It’s about policy, not race.
MaxScallion retweeted
We want accountability and health care! We want hearings and end to Iran war! We want impeachments and raise the minimum wage! Do both! Do your job! No reaching across the isle!

BREAKING EXCLUSIVE: Democrats are planning to investigate if the 2024 Election was "RIGGED" by Elon Musk
They want to know how Elon Musk Knew Trump won 4 hours before the 2024 election was called

So, let me get this straight.
We’re now facing a demented, lawless President who’s chosen moronic FOX News reject Pete Hegseth as his Secretary of War, and sadistic Nazi Gestapo wannabe Stephen Miller as his Chief of Staff— and you think Chucky Schumer is going to protect you?!!
MaxScallion retweeted
Yes, we need to get Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer OUT of leadership. But they must be replaced with new leaders that DO NOT support Israel and who DO support things like MEDICARE FOR ALL.
Rearranging the chairs on the Titanic ain't gonna cut it.

Hinojosa NAILED IT. This isn’t about left versus right. It’s about 99.9% of us versus 15 billionaire tech guys who think they own our government.
THAT’S THE REAL FIGHT. 👏

All of the men in this photo have either been found guilty of rape, or liable for sexual assault. Every single one of them.

SCHUMAR: "We want to reach across the aisle."
JEFFRIES: "We aren't interested in retribution."
TRUMP: "Stephen Miller is my new right-hand man."
ME: This is fucking why we need new leadership.

If Trump is endorsing Schumer, you know Schumer is going to protect Trump.
This is a no go.
