*Despite his “no” vote, the Senate deal to reopen the government bears Schumer’s fingerprints*

This Reuters story was published in 2023. For a reason I don’t understand, it had little impact. Basically, car buyers don’t pay attention to these kind of things.

A Utah judge on Monday rejected a Republican-approved congressional map in favor of an alternative that will create a Democratic-leaning district in the Beehive State.

He had a bob tail and no teeth, he had been bounced around between shelter & foster, adopted out and returned before he came to us. So happy we could give him his forever home even though we had him less than two years. He was my boy and I miss him every day. He was just happy to be there, wherever that was. Even our grumpy older female cat seemed to love him.

In Santa Clara, Calif., where the world’s biggest supplier of artificial-intelligence chips is based, Digital Realty Trust Inc. applied in 2019 to build a data center. Roughly six years later, the development remains an empty shell awaiting full energization. Stack Infrastructure, which was acquired earlier this year by Blue Owl Capital Inc., has a nearby 48-megawatt project that’s also vacant, while the city-owned utility, Silicon Valley Power, struggles to upgrade its capacity.

Schumer, who was the target of near-universal vitriol among Democrats in March when he backed down in a budget battle that threatened to evolve into a shutdown, was quick to announce his opposition to the deal and he voted against it Monday night.

Tesla’s share of China’s EV market shrank to just 3.2% in October, down sharply from 8.7% the previous month and its lowest in more than three years.

There are growing concerns in the party that the political war is not going as planned — that the juice may not have been worth the squeeze and could, in a nightmare scenario, result in a net gain for Democrats.

Representative Ro Khanna, a prominent progressive and potential 2028 candidate, explicitly called for Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer to resign in the latest episode of Right Now. Khanna says that Schumer is ultimately responsible for Senate Democrats cutting a deal with Republicans that will likely end without enhanced subsidies for Obamacare being put back in place. He called the agreement a “moral surrender.” If it was never possible for Democrats to win those subsidies, they shouldn’t have been the basis for the shutdown strategy, Khanna argued. The California congressman said it was particularly disheartening to see this deal less than a week after Democrats had resounding wins in elections across the country. He floated Senator Chris Van Hollen as a possible replacement for Schumer.

Controlled opposition or so incompetent that the distinction is null. I’m starting to think the chud was right. Nothing ever happens. Both sides are the same.
