23. another hit on Democrats by Seder who dragged Biden on Gaza

...and has a similar grudge against Schumer for his support of Israel.

Schumer didn't do anything here but defend the CHIPS ACT that he and Biden had a hand in passing which Trump and Lutnick is now taking credit for.

Schumer:

.Q. ..the president opposed the Chips and Science Act. Why should he get to take any credit for the jobs that it's creating?

SCHUMER: Can I say that there's we're not looking for one side or the other? We're working together to make this thing happen in my state..."


...Schumer got wind of the appearance by Lutnick and went there to head him off and prevent him from siphoning off credit for the initiative Democrats had enacted. It's fucking Schumer's state, and his initiative, ffs. This wasn't coddling Lutnick, it was setting the record straight, something which Seder is deliberately muddling here for his petty attack on Schumer.

The CHIPS and Science Act combines two bipartisan bills: the Endless Frontier Act, designed to boost investment in domestic high-tech research, and the CHIPS for America Act, designed to bring semiconductor manufacturing back to the U.S. The act is aimed at competing with China.

The bill was signed into law by President Joe Biden on August 9, 2022.

The Endless Frontier Act was initially presented to senators Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and Todd Young (R-IN) by Under Secretary of State Keith Krach in October 2019, as part of the Global Economic Security Strategy to boost investment in high-tech research vital to U.S. national security. The plan was to grow $150 billion in government R&D funding into a $500 billion investment, with matching investments from the private sector and a coalition of technological allies dubbed the "Techno-Democracies-10" (TD-10).

On May 27, 2020, Young and Schumer, along with Congressmen Ro Khanna (D-CA) and Mike Gallagher (R-WI.), introduced the bipartisan, bicameral Endless Frontier Act...

Seder not only doesn't know what he's talking about, thinks defending DEMOCRATIC initiatives is defending Lutnock, and there isn't a day that goes by that he's not bashing the Democratic party like he ratfucked Biden.

WHY DO PEOPLE STILL LISTEN TO THESE ASSHOLES WHO LOST US THE LAST ELECTION?

Yesterday it was a thread by ratfucker Norman Solomon, now it's this 'Gaza' demagoaue who can ony think of tearing the party down. Basically an anarchist, but sure, let's glom on to bash our own Democratic leader.
