If you want proof that Democratic Party leaders and their top donors, including AIPAC, don't give one flying fuck whether or not their support for Israel's genocide in Gaza elected Trump or continues to help his fascist agenda, I'd argue that you don't have to look any further than the actions of Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, since the Kelpto Kaiser's second inauguration. Fortunately for us, The Majority Report recently put out a twenty minute clip that does just that; from Schumer's capitulation on the GOP's class war continuing resolution, to recent remarks revealing that the Senator would rather empower Trump's fascist assault on student protestors and higher education, than speak out against the fake antisemitism crisis *Democrats* originally helped create to justify repressing college kids opposing a genocide, Sam and Emma cover all the shameful lowlights.

Once again please let me take a moment to remind angry liberals that both Sam Seder and Emma Vigland are Democrats, who vote for Democrats, and tell their audience to vote for Democrats; no matter how much lanyards inside the party want to pretend otherwise, TMR's criticisms of feckless, collaborating Democrat leadership are coming from inside the house, not the "far left."
For those of us living in the really real world where the Democratic Party is clearly not doing enough to fight Trump's fascist agenda however, I'd like to point out that what Schumer is doing throughout this video goes far beyond mere cowardly inaction in the face of a fascist takeover of our society, and veers into open collaboration. As Vigland in particular points out, even while pretending to defend Harvard from the Trump administration's attempts to use a fake antisemitism crisis on college campuses to seize control of the University, Schumer actively makes the regime's case for it by trying to thread the needle between "Harvard has an antisemitism problem and hasn't done enough to combat it" and "Trump's actions aren't justified in response to antisemitism." In doing so, the Senator comes off essentially supporting Trump's argument that Harvard is allowing hate crimes because people protested Israel's ongoing, US-backed genocide in Gaza.
Factually speaking, this is all bullshit. The protests aren't and were never antisemitic; that's just a lie Biden and the Dem Party's establishment insisted on deploying to protect the genocide they were enabling Israel to conduct, and wave away their own base's concerns about murderpigs beating up college students and professors on live TV. Schumer knows that, but he's being paid to pretend otherwise and he's not prepared to break the kayfabe even if it means essentially helping Donald Trump run roughshod over the American constitution and our civil rights. This is consistent messaging from Democratic Party leaders and luminaries, and I'm sorry but given the circumstances it makes them all collaborators with a fascist regime; in addition to being dishonest, bootlicking minions for donor class rich people.
