Early Thursday morning the Senate once again passed a bill by voice vote, that would fund most of DHS with the exception of ICE and much of Border Patrol, and they sent it to the House which will likely pass it, because reportedly, Republicans plan to use reconciliation to get all funding they want later, by bypassing Democrats. Even so, you would expect the left wing media to spin this as a win for their side, but that was not the case Thursday morning on CNN's The Situation Room. Co-Host Pamela Brown stepped out of character and played rough with her guest, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY): BROWN: This plan that just passed in the Senate does not include the reforms to immigration enforcement operations that Democrats had not only demanded, but even used as reasons to withhold their votes for DHS funding when all of this began more than a month ago. What did your party actually accomplish with this shutdown? Schumer then spewed the patented left wing talking points on the issue. SCHUMER: Well, first, let me say that the Republicans are hardly unified. (House Speaker) Johnson, for the second time, rejected a proposal made this morning by John Thune with unanimous consent support of all the Republicans to fund the DHS agencies like the Coast Guard, like FEMA, like CISA, which we need.  This is now clearly the Johnson shutdown. It's a Republican shutdown....So this shutdown is on their back. Their failure to want to reform DHS, sorry, to reform ICE, and Border Patrol.... Don't mask, cooperate with local authorities. American people want that. Everyone wants that, but a group of right wing Republicans who just like DHS, like ICE and CPB as it is, as much as we all abhor it and it's on them. Brown then not only corrected Schumer, but pressed him for not answering her question.  BROWN: Well, you have heard the new DHS secretary say that there will be reforms, particularly to warrants and in other areas. But just to follow up on my original question, look, ICE and CBP, they are funded, I mean, with billions of dollars from last year's budget bill for the next few years. So what did Democrats actually accomplish with this shutdown, where you saw many government employees really struggle? SCHUMER: Well, as, again, we were ready to fund the rest of DHS. It was the Republicans who blocked it over and over again. So that's on them. But, second, the bottom line is, what we have shown the American people is, we want obvious commonsense reforms to DHS to ICE and CBP, and the Republicans don't.  And Brown continued to surprise, going after another one of Schumer's claims.    BROWN: The bottom line is, Democrats are in the minority. You mentioned what the American people want. Overall, the American people are not happy with the Democratic Party. CNN's recent polling shows that a broad 74 percent of the public says Democrats in Congress have the wrong priorities. How do you respond to that as the Democratic leader in the Senate? SCHUMER: Look at just about all the elections, whether they were the elections in New Jersey and in Virginia, throughout the country. The American people are choosing Democrats over Republicans. And why? Because they know that the Republicans are the party of costs, high costs, people's costs are going way up, of chaos, not only chaos in the cities, but chaos in Iran.... So the American people are on our side on the major issues.  Once again, Brown was not happy that Schumer did not answer her question.  BROWN: And that is true in the recent elections. And it is true that the Iran war is unpopular broadly among the American people. And President Trump is unpopular broadly. But, overall, when you look at the polling about priorities, the American people are unhappy with what Democrats have been doing. And they indicate, these polls, that you have historically low performance ratings. What specifically can you be doing to bring these numbers up and reestablish trust within both your own party and with your constituents? Schumer insisted his party was strong and united. It was a good job by Brown, and the second time in a little over a week that Schumer has received a tough time, even if one could argue she's arguing from the AOC perspective, that he's not pleasing the leftist fringe.  Joe Scarborough also temporarily acted like a journalist on MS NOW's  Morning Joe on March 23rd, and Mika Brzezinski decided to toss Schumer a lifeline.
