The 10 Spineless Democrats Who Just Betrayed Us—It’s Time for New Leadership in the Senate

Today, ten Senate Democrats caved. They voted for cloture, advancing a bill that hands conservatives yet another victory while sidelining the very people who elected them. And just when you thought things couldn’t get more absurd, Donald Trump himself publicly praised Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer

What Can We Do?

The first step is holding these senators accountable. We cannot allow them to hide behind vague statements about “bipartisanship” when they are actively enabling a right-wing agenda. We need to name them, call them out, and make it clear that their betrayal won’t be forgotten.

The second step? Electing real fighters. We need to support progressive challengers who are unafraid to take on corporate Democrats and the political establishment. That means backing candidates who prioritize Medicare for All, workers’ rights, and an economy that serves people—not billionaires and lobbyists. If they’re not willing to stand up for us, they don’t deserve our vote.

And finally, we need to get loud. The media will try to bury this story, but we won’t let them. We must flood our representatives’ phone lines, mobilize online, and demand that leadership in the Senate actually represents the people who put them there. The Democratic establishment thinks we’ll just accept these betrayals. They’re wrong.

The Future of the Democratic Party Depends on Us

This is about more than just one vote. This is about the soul of the Democratic Party. Will it continue to be a party that compromises away its values, or will it finally become a party that fights for the working class?

AOC and the progressive movement have shown us what is possible when we demand better. But she can’t do it alone. It’s time to replace weak, corporate-backed Democrats with real leaders who understand that the fight for justice, equity, and democracy is non-negotiable.

We don’t need another generation of spineless senators bowing to right-wing pressure. We need a political revolution—and that starts with us.
