PODCAST: Dark Days in the U.S. Senate
Written by Laurie Higgins
Every day, “progressives” provide evidence for their unfitness for any positions of leadership, power, or influence. Senate minority leader and master of hyperbole and prevarication Chuck Schumer (d-NY) provides a case in point. In response to the confirmation of Amy Coney Barrett to the U.S. Supreme Court, Schumer made this comment on the U.S. Senate floor:
It will go down as one of the darkest days in the 231-year history of the United States Senate.
Amazing. The day that a woman who by all accounts possesses the skill, knowledge, experience, temperament, and integrity—something with which Schumer is wholly unfamiliar—was confirmed to the U.S. Supreme Court, Schumer called one of the darkest days in the history of the U.S. Senate.
