SCHUMER’S BLUNDER GOES VIRAL: ‘We Must Fund ICE!’ Dem Leader Blurts Out the Words He’s Been Blocking All Along

Senate Leader Chuck Schumer had an awkward moment on the Senate floor during debate over the ongoing partial shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security on Saturday.

In a now-viral video clip from the proceedings, Schumer stated, “We must fund ICE!” before quickly correcting himself and saying, “We must fund TSA NOW!”

The remark was widely mocked on social media.

“Great idea! Fund ICE!” reporter Eric Daugherty wrote in a post on X, along with the clip.

Democrats have repeatedly blocked clean DHS funding bills because they are demanding changes to ICE operations and immigration enforcement, while blaming Republicans for not caving.

The shutdown, now in its sixth week, has left thousands of TSA officers working without pay, caused severe staffing shortages, and created long security lines and flight delays at airports nationwide during spring break travel season.

Nearly 400 TSA officers have resigned because they were unable to provide for their families.

The situation is so dire that Elon Musk has now personally offered to pay TSA staffers.

“I would like to offer to pay the salaries of TSA personnel during this funding impasse that is negatively affecting the lives of so many Americans at airports throughout the country,” Musk wrote in a post on his platform X.

HERE IT IS: Schumer Slips, Admits Illegal Aliens Vote in US Elections

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer on Wednesday admitted that illegal aliens vote in US elections.

Schumer made the admission during a marathon debate on the SAVE America Act on the Senate floor.

“The core of the bill is handing the voter rolls over to DHS, putting them through an algorithm designed by… Musk that knocks – supposedly knocks out illegal immigrants from voting – but the evidence is that almost no illegal immigrants vote!” Schumer said.

Shouldn’t Schumer be outraged by even one illegal immigrant vote that steals the vote of an American citizen?

The US Senate on Tuesday voted to advance the SAVE America Act in a 51-48 vote.

Earlier Tuesday, it was reported that allies of President Donald Trump are reportedly preparing to “take over the Senate floor” today to push for action on the SAVE America Act.

A marathon debate on the SAVE America Act is now underway.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Trump has already threatened to withhold his signature from all future legislation until the Senate delivers proof-of-citizenship voting requirements, strict voter ID, and an end to the Democrat-favorite mail-in ballot fraud machine.

Unfortunately, the SAVE America Act has stalled because it requires 60 votes in the Senate, and unless the filibuster is nuked, the measure is dead on arrival.

DOJ official Harmeet Dhillon said illegal aliens are registered to vote and they are voting.

“The review of 50–60 million voter records has revealed there are thousands of ineligible and outdated registrations—including non-citizens,” Harmeet said.

“Some of them voted. More to come!” Harmeet said on Tuesday.

QUIET PART OUT LOUD: A Panicked Chuck Schumer Says SAVE Act Would Purge Millions From Voter Rolls

Chuck Schumer is promoting the SAVE Act without even realizing it.

While speaking to the press this week, the clearly panicked senator said that the SAVE Act would purge millions of people from the voter rolls. Does he mean illegal aliens and dead people? It’s probably safe to assume he does.

This is exactly why millions of patriotic Americans support the SAVE Act, Chuck.

Chuck Schumer claims SAVE Act would strip ‘more than 20 million people’ of their right to vote

Chuck Schumer criticized the proposed SAVE America Act, claiming that the legislation could purge millions from voter rolls.

The Senate minority leader also took aim at tech billionaire Elon Musk, alleging that an AI-driven system linked to his efforts could remove voters without notice. Schumer described the SAVE Act as a “pernicious” and “nasty” piece of legislation that he said could threaten voting rights across the country.

Speaking to reporters, Schumer claimed the legislation would allow large-scale purges of voter rolls using automated systems.

He alleged that an artificial intelligence system connected to efforts by Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) could remove millions of voters without notice.

The Democrat said, “Using an Al system set up by Musk and DOGE. So you could show up at the polling place this November, and they’d say you’re no longer on the rolls. They don’t even notify you of it.”

“Millions of people would be purged from their roles because of this system that Musk and DOGE put in. You wouldn’t be notified you’d show up at the polling place, and they’d say, sorry, Mr Jones, sorry, mystery, Miss Smith. You’re not, you’re not on the rolls anymore. They don’t even notify you,” he continued.

CNN Confronts Chuck Schumer on Voter ID

CNN pressed Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) over his opposition to the SAVE Act and voter ID laws, noting that a clear majority of Americans support such measures. Schumer, however, maintained his position, arguing that the legislation amounts to “Jim Crow 2.0” and warning that millions of Americans could lose access to the ballot box if the SAVE Act were enacted.

“About 83 percent of the American people, including majority Democrats, support voter ID laws,” CNN’s Jake Tapper said.

“The voter ID laws that…first, each state can have its own voter ID laws, and some do, and some don’t,” the Senate Minority Leader said. “But secondly, what they are proposing in this so-called SAVE Act is like Jim Crow 2.0. They make it so hard to get any kind of voter ID that more than 20 million legitimate people, mainly poorer people and people of color, will not be able to vote under this law.”

The SAVE Act (Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act) would overhaul federal voter registration by making proof of U.S. citizenship a requirement to vote, and by forcing states to run ongoing checks to remove illegal immigrants from voter rolls. The documentation requirements are standard, including options like a U.S. passport, U.S. birth certificate, and Certificates of Citizenship or Naturalization. However, Democrats have argued that some American citizens don’t have easy access to those documents, sidelining millions of American voters.

“We will not let it pass in the Senate,” he added. “We are fighting it tooth and nail. It’s an outrageous proposal that shows the sort of political bias of the MAGA right. They don’t want poor people to vote. They don’t want people of color to vote because they often don’t vote for them.”

Schumer Moves to FEDERALIZE the Pride Flag After Rainbow Banner Removed from Stonewall Monument — Plans Bill to Make It a Congressionally Authorized U.S. Flag

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer is reportedly preparing to introduce radical legislation that would effectively federalize the Pride Flag.

The uproar began when a large Pride flag was taken down from the federal monument in Greenwich Village that honors the 1969 Stonewall riots, the event widely recognized as the birthplace of the modern LGBTQ civil-rights movement.

Federal officials said the removal of the rainbow banner was to enforce longstanding rules limiting flags on National Park Service flagpoles to those officially authorized, namely the U.S. flag and certain others.

Outrage among Democrats was immediate. New York officials and activists re-raised the Pride flag days later in defiance of federal policy. The episode has now been seized upon by Schumer and allies in Congress as justification for a sweeping legislative grab.

Schumer, joined by Rep. Dan Goldman in the House, says he will introduce a bill to make the Pride flag a congressionally authorized national symbol that cannot be removed from federal monuments or properties.

Under the draft language reported in local outlets, the legislation would designate the rainbow banner as protected under federal flag law, giving it the same status as other flags sanctioned by Congress.

Chuck Schumer Lambasted After Comparing the SAVE Act to Jim Crow

The modern American left has an ugly habit of reaching for the biggest historical trauma it can find when it wants to shut down a debate.

Slavery, segregation, Jim Crow, fascism — nothing is too grave or too blood-soaked to be repurposed as a rhetorical club.

This isn’t just asinine and lazy. It’s fundamentally corrosive to the republic.

Like, for instance, when leftist lawmakers treat colorblind, baseline election rules as moral equivalents of racial terror, they’re cheapening history and poisoning public trust. Worse, they teach voters that words like “oppression” and “racism” are just props in a hackneyed, partisan script, not descriptions of real and specific evils.

And yet the tactic persists, which tells you everything you need to know about the incentives at work. Outrage travels faster than argument, and historical guilt is easier to weaponize than facts.

That brings us to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, who recently decided that the Safeguarding American Voter Eligibility Act belongs in the same moral category as Jim Crow. Seriously.

“Kristi Noem and Stephen Miller are F*cking Liars” – UNHINGED Chuck Schumer Goes on Profane Tirade Amid Homeland Security Funding Battle

Democratic Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer recently went on an insane social media rant, calling Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller “f*cking liars” and demanding they be ousted from the Trump Administration. 

“Any administration that allows them to continue in office is rotten to its core,” Schumer said following the death of Alex Pretti, a violent anti-ICE rioter in Minneapolis. “The vote on appropriations is coming up Thursday night, and Democrats will not let the Republicans move forward if ICE and DHS funding are in the bill.”

This came as Democrats threatened to shut down the government if Republicans did not agree to defund the Department of Homeland Security.

Per Fox, “The deal brokered between the two would have the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) funding bill stripped from the broader six-bill package. Schumer and Democrats have been adamant that if the bill were sidelined, they’d vote for the remaining five, which includes funding for the Pentagon.

“Their agreement also tees up a short-term funding extension, known as a continuing resolution (CR), for two weeks to keep the agency funded while lawmakers negotiate restrictions on Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE),” the report continues.

The government is partially shut down through the weekend until House lawmakers return on Monday to pass the Senate’s package. If Democrats get the restrictions they want, say goodbye to mass deportations.

Dems Screeched for Maduro’s Ouster—Until Trump Delivered It

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer is rushing to block President Trump’s successful operation to arrest Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro, labeling it “lawlessness” and a violation of congressional authority—despite Schumer himself and a string of Democrats and their media mouthpieces previously blasting Trump for failing to end the Maduro regime.

With Maduro now in custody and the U.S. overseeing a transition in Venezuela, Democrats have immediately cried foul, with Schumer appearing on ABC’s “This Week” to decry the move as unauthorized nation-building that will cost American lives and dollars.

Schumer declared, “The American people this morning are scratching their heads in wonderment and in fear of what the president has proposed,” adding, “We have learned through years when America tries to do regime change and nation building in this way, the American people pay the price in both blood and in dollars.”

Whoops: Schumer’s ‘Open Mouth, Insert Foot’ Moment as Dems’ Hypocrisy Hits Hyper Drive on Venezuela

Democrats have been losing their minds over President Donald Trump’s actions in Venezuela to capture and arrest the dictator Nicolás Maduro, who was wanted in the United States and had been under indictment for five years.

We saw Democrats calling it illegal and claiming that Trump needed Congressional approval to effect Maduro’s arrest. Their hypocrisy is something else, given the actions taken by Democrats like Barack Obama in the past. 

Do they recall how many civilians Barack Obama in foreign countries reportedly took out with his drone actions, which led to some referring to him as the Droner-in-Chief?

Obama embraced the US drone programme, overseeing more strikes in his first year than Bush carried out during his entire presidency. A total of 563 strikes, largely by drones, targeted Pakistan, Somalia and Yemen during Obama’s two terms, compared to 57 strikes under Bush. Between 384 and 807 civilians were killed in those countries, according to reports logged by the Bureau.

Do they recall Obama’s actions in Libya that went on for months without Congressional approval? They even had ABC questioning his actions. Can anyone forget this?

Is Chuck Schumer Pulling a Jussie Smollett? It Sure Looks Like It.

Chuck Schumer took to the Senate floor Monday to announce that multiple bomb threats had been directed at three of his New York offices, claiming law enforcement informed him about emails with “MAGA” in the subject line and messages alleging the 2020 election was rigged. If this story sounds familiar, that’s because it plays like a bad rerun of the Jussie Smollett hate crime hoax, where the actor claimed two men in red caps attacked him while shouting, “This is MAGA country.” The parallels are almost too perfect to ignore.

“Mr. President, this morning, I was informed by New York law enforcement of multiple bomb threats made against my offices in Rochester, Binghamton, and Long Island. The bomb threats against my offices came with the email subject line ‘MAGA’ and from an email address alleging the 2020 election was rigged.”

Yes, because Trump supporters are still griping about 2020 when Trump is in office in 2025. Give me a break.

“Local and federal law enforcement responded immediately and are conducting full security sweeps, and investigations are ongoing,” Schumer continued. “Everyone, thank God, is safe, and I’m grateful for the quick and professional response of federal and local law enforcement to ensure that these offices remain safe and secure for all New Yorkers.”

Something tells me they never were unsafe.

Schumer concluded, “As I’ve said many times, these kinds of violent threats have absolutely no place, no place in our political system.”

Yeah, we’ve been saying that on the right for a long time now. Where were you, Chuck?
