    Help me out here. 2,000 kids are still being held hostage to convince their parents to self-deport, assuming the Trump Admin can even locate them, right? Why isn't Chuck Schumer talking about that?

        Thank you! Am I crazy or shouldn’t we be focused on finding and reuniting these kids with parents??? Is everyone having a case of the Mondays and forgetting about this?? Unbelievable... #WhereAreTheGirls #WhereAreTheBabies #WhereAreTheChidren

        I'm with you on this. I feel all who see what is happening [whatever the party] MUST HALT every other discussion in Congress & DEMAND WH/Admin prove they can link each human they have taken from parents to the parents. NOW. Nothing else happens until that is done. Trafficking

        Why, indeed. What is more important right now for any of the Democrats to be talking about? How about it, @SenSchumer and @SenGillibrand? You're my Senators. Why aren't you talking about this every day? Why aren't you talking about Trump wanting to get rid of due process?

        Because Schumer folds like a cheap suit. Every time. It's what he does.

        I'm waiting for chuck's advice about "civility" and how speaking out is "unacceptable " like his buddy pelosi.

        I called him out on twitter and lost followers, i really don't know what it's going to take to get him and @TeamPelosi to act. Please continue to call out @SenSchumer

        Because @chuckschumer doesn’t deserve to be a Senator for New York if he’s going to spend his time collaborating.

        Good question. He should be speaking out and unifying our Resistances voices every day. Kamala, Warner, Lieu, and Shiff are much more vocal.

        I'm incredibly tired of politicians (some of which I respect deeply) coming on here and making statements that are completely obvious to anyone with a brain. My response - um, congratulations for you realizing this? What are you going to do about it?
