Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez dropped the hammer on Chuck Schumer for this bad move

There is civil war within the Democrat Party.
Things are getting ugly fast on the Left.
And Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez dropped the hammer on Chuck Schumer for this bad move.
The Democrat Party erupted in rage after Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer agreed to provide the votes on a six-month continuing resolution that froze spending and rejected Democrats’ key demand of restricting the ability of DOGE to fire bureaucrats or impose spending cuts.
An enraged Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez – who many Democrats now want to see primary Schumer in 2028 – appeared on CNN and torched Schumer for admitting defeat to President Trump.
Ocasio-Cortez referenced town halls where paid left-wing protesters berated Republicans as evidence there was some kind of anti-DOGE backlash building across America.
“I believe that’s a tremendous mistake,” Ocasio-Cortez told Jake Tapper. “First and foremost, the American people, if anyone has held a town hall or has seen what has been happening in town halls, the American people, whether they are Republicans, independents, Democrats, are up in arms about Elon Musk and the actual gutting of federal agencies across the board. This continuing resolution codifies much of this chaos that Elon Musk is wreaking havoc on the federal government.”
The continuing resolution freezes spending at current levels which allows the GOP in six months to codify the DOGE spending cuts, an outcome that Ocasio-Cortez found unacceptable.
“And so to me, it is almost unthinkable why Senate Democrats would vote to hand the few pieces of leverage that we have away for free when we’ve been sent here to protect Social Security, protect Medicaid, and protect Medicare,” Ocasio-Cortez added.
It wasn’t just the hardcore socialists up in arms at Schumer over the government funding debacle.
Washington Senator Patty Murray is a normal Schumer ally and a past chair of the Budget Committee.
But Murray made sure she went public with opposition to the continuing resolution, which only served to further inflame tensions within the party.
“Good morning. I am a firm 100% NO on House Republicans’ slush fund CR. I will NOT vote to let Elon and Trump pick winners and losers with your taxpayer dollars. Senators were not elected to beg Trump for federal resources.”
Things got so bad for Schumer that red state Democrats were predicting the party would dump Schumer by the next election.
“Is it time to have a conversation about new leadership for you guys?” a reporter asked Georgia Democrat Senator Raphael Warnock.
“I think come ’26, ’28 we’ll get some new leadership,” Warnock replied.
Chuck Schumer dug himself quite a hole.
And it’s one Schumer may not be able to climb out of as the anger inside the Democrat Party is reaching levels no one has ever seen before.
