Et tu, Brute? New York Senator Schumer helps Republicans buck President Obama once again!

New York Democratic Senator Schumer has been itching to buck President Obama’s stance on not supporting a bill to allow families of 9/11 victims to sue Saudi Arabia in U.S. courts since 2008.

 

On Tuesday, Schumer and his Republican partners convinced the US Senate and House to push Schumer’s plan through.

The plan sounds good, but the consequences are costly to our country because it exposes our troops, our intelligence community, our diplomats and our government to attacks,  backlash-lawsuits and alienates our Middle East allies at a time of global unrest.

 

This is not the first time Schumer. publicly, opposed President Obama. He aligned with Republicans to oppose the Iran Deal as well.

Et tu, Senator Schumer?
