The sooner AOC runs against Schumer and ousts the pompous, arrogant impediment to progress, the better.

Sirota's site, Perez writing.

For progressives, Schumer is a royal pain in the ass. The sooner retired to lobbying, [from outside the Senate, not as now, from inside], the better. Yesterday was not soon enough to dismiss him for a better human.

Shakedown Street is still the heart of town.
