Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer has decided not to resign despite fierce backlash from progressives after supporting a bipartisan spending bill to prevent a government shutdown. This decision has triggered protests and calls for his resignation, notably from Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Schumer argues that his actions were vital to avoid greater chaos. Meanwhile, the Republican-led Congress is focusing on passing Trump's multitrillion-dollar agenda, navigating fierce internal conflicts and the inevitable debt ceiling deadline, potentially exacerbating political divides within both parties.
