Democratic congressman @RoKhanna explains why Chuck Schumer bears responsibility for the shutdown compromise even though he voted for it. RO KHANNA: Yes, he voted no; but eight Senators who said they consulted him daily, go and vote yes. One of those people is his number two. He's not going to do that without Senator Schumer's sign off. And then conveniently, all eight of those. Senators aren't up for reelection in 2026. This is the DC way. Senator Schumer could have blocked this if they wanted to.
