Low bar, still doesn't make them brown

The voters handed the dems huge gains during the shutdown election, there's no clearer way they could have signaled we were behind them, and yet they betray us.
Reread the passage again, the part that was widely asusmed was that the flip votes were operating on thete own. The sentence about Schumers approval was started with the phrase 'In fact' because that is what's being reported as the truth. 'Widely assumed' is not even the same sentence with the allegations on Chuck so Im having trouble interpreting your comment in good faith.
Yes, you're free to search him.
A professor who worked at the Boston Globe for 20 years before opening his own publication in 1990. Hes been a independent journalist since before most of Lemmy was born. Chuck knew and supported it. Or are you gonna ignore credible reporting that you don't like? We got a party for people like that in America.

Here’s what occurred. It has been widely assumed that the group of eight mostly centrist Senate Democrats, who have been looking to broker a hollow deal on Republican terms, were freelancing. In fact, they were acting with the express approval of Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and were reporting to him daily.
It seems either Leader Chuck Schumer conspired against the party at large, or they did have the support of Democrats.

This article says they moved with the explicit approval and knowledge of Schumer.

This links to a clip on Fox news where Shaheen confirms they informed Schumer of their moves every step of the way. It's not just a few bad apples, the bunch is rotten.
They're not confused, they're not cowards, they know what will happen, they are complicit.
I would assume that yes. The more progressive wing of democrats have been fed up with Chuck for a long time and so have a lot of the voters. Allowing riskier seats to have plausible deniability is the whole purpose of having the least risky seats be the ones to break. What worries me is Chuck is more than likely not the only one voting no now that there's enough yes votes but secretly in favor of it. How are we going to find those other people?

Seth Moulton (D-Mass.) accused Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer of being ineffective and called for his removal.
In this article Seth Moulton calls for Schumers removal putting the blame on him, because he knows what Chuck was doing. He's far from the only Democrat calling our Schumer specifically for this.

Clip from faux news
KILMEADE: Schumer says he's voting no. Did you do this outside leadership?
SHAHEEN: No. We kept leadership informed throughout.
Who's trying to find the correct racist term? Most I see here are people saying not to use the term brown to talk about Japanese people. Must have missed how that's racist.
