mr. schumer: mr. president. the presiding officer: the majority leader. mr. schumer: yesterday, i spoke here on the senate floor about a subject that is highly personal and yet of immense importance, the rise of anti-semitism in america. i spoke out because, as the highest jewish elected official in the country and in american history, i felt an obligation to say aloud what is felt within the hearts of so many jewish people across the country and around the world. after october 7, jewish americans are feeling singled out, targeted and isolated. in many ways, we feel alone. the solidarity that jewish americans initially received from many of our fellow citizens was quickly drowned out by other voices. i want to be clear -- i believe most americans who are chryst sizing -- criticizing israel policy are not anti-semitic. nor that israel's policies are anti-semitic per se. but it cannot be denied that in too many instances anti-semites are taking advantage of the pro-palestinian movement to he espouse hatred toward jewish people. on the hard right, the poison of a

mr. schumer: mr. president. the presiding officer: the majority leader. mr. schumer: mr. president, in a few moments the senate will confirm julia kobick as a district judge for the district of massachusetts. i have great news. the senate is about to confirm the 100th woman and the 150th judge over all to the federal bench since we took the majority. one judge at a time, this democratic majority is making the federal bench look more like america, and that's why the confirmation of the 100th woman to the court is so important. it's not only double the amount confirmed by president trump in all of his four years, it's also considerably more women than any full first-term of any president. in fact, two-thirds -- two-thirds of all the judges we've confirmed under president biden are women. and we've confirmed more women of color to the bench than any other president's entire time in office. these 100 women are historic, taken together, but they also include many who are historic in their own right. they include, of course, the first black woman confirmed to the supreme court,

mr. schumer: mr. president. the presiding officer: the majority leader. mr. schumer: last night, i filed cloture on president biden's nominees to serve as chief of naval operations and chief of staff to the air force. the remaining vacancies on the joint joint chiefs of staff, which we said we'd fill. we will move on these critical military appointments soon here on the floor. iralso filed on general ma hopey to be -- mahoney to being second in command of the marine corps. this week, the commandant of the marines, general eric smith, was unexpectedly hospital iepsed after a serious medical -- hospitalized after a serious medical emergency. normally, major john mahoney would have stepped in to temporarily serve as commandant. unfortunately, because of blanket holds of just one senator, senator tuberville, that cannot happen. the situation at the marine corps is precisely the kind of avoidable emergency that senator tuberville has provoked through his reckless holds. lieutenant general mahoney is more than -- one of more than 300 nominees senator tuberville is b

mr. schumer: mr. president. the presiding officer: the majority leader. mr. chumer: could we have order, please. the presiding officer: order in the chamber. mr. schumer: thank you. in a few minutes we're going to proceed on the nomination of an outstanding public servant, margaret garn net who i was proud to recommend to president biden. she is a proud resident of brooklyn, a brilliant legal thinker and someone whose life story has been defined by public service. she's had more than a decade of experience prosecuting cases ranging from murder to robbery to financial fraud and more as part of the u.s. attorney's office for the southern district of new york. 15 times she's tried a case all the way to jury verdict, including what was at the time the largest tax fraud case in u.s. history. but ms. garnett is also a fierce defender of rights of the accused, instrumental in exonerating five have had wrongly convicted of murder. she said our job is to do justice. mr. president, our courts need more public servants like margaret m. garnett, described by her colleague

mr. schumer: mr. president. the presiding officer: the majority leader. mr. schumer: mr.nt, another election night in america, another win for women's choice, another win for democracy, another win for the democratic agenda of jobs, infrastructure, lowering costs for the middle class. another terrible defeat for the maga agenda. americans don't want hard-right extremists to govern this country. at stake last night was a woman's right to choose in ohio, the governship in kentucky, cannabis reform in ohio, control of the legislature in virginia, state supreme court seats and so much more. in almost every major election democratic candidate, and democratic issues prevailed. this continued and strengthened the trend of democratic victories last year. there is no possible takeaway last night other than this. americans fiercely oppose maga extremism, fiercely oppose total abortion bans, and want bipartisan leaders who can put america's needs first. after ls night's results, i have a message to my republican colleagues. when the maga agenda can't win in deep red kentucky or in o

mr. schumer.ing out what makes sense with what johnson is thinking, and figure out some way out of this chaos until we get to thursday and johnson still doesn't have the votes. shermichael it out earlier, even if they get it through the house, it is -- in the senate. and so we have to figure out a way forward out of that journey. i think mr. jeffries is probably having conversations with mr. johnson and mr. short, trying to create a plan out of this chaos,. it we get to the point where there is no way forward on thursday evening. >> shermichael, do you think that speaker johnson is willing to shut down the government? >> i don't think it is a matter of him being willing to shut down the government, i think a better question, simone, is can he avoided? you already had ship roy come out and say he is not voting for this. -- other republicans who are given part of the freedom caucus are likely going to say no. and i think a part of the issue for johnson, even if he could somehow work with speaker jef

mr. schumer: mr. president. the presiding officer: the majority leader. mr. schumer: mr.sident, today i come to the floor to speak on a subject of great importance, the rise of anti-semitism in america. i feel compelled to speak because i'm the highest-ranking jewish elected official in america. in fact, the highest ranking jewish elected official ever in american history. and i have noticed a significant disparity between how jewish people regard the rise of anti-semitism and how many of my nonjewish friends regard it. to us, the jewish people, the rise of anti-semitism is a crisis, a five-alarm fire that must be extinguished. for so many other people of good will, it is merely a problem, a matter of concern. so today i want to use my platform to explain why so many jewish people see this problem as a crisis. before i get into that, i want to offer two important caveats about what this speech is not. this speech is not an attempt to label most criticism of israel and the israeli government generally as anti-semitic. i don't believe that criticism is. and this speech is a

mr. schumer, chuck schumer, that they are also ready about but in congress, we understand, there is an additionaltory, yes and we understand that the key key is the amount of aid, yes, because the head of the congress, the chairman of the congress said that there will be aid for ukraine, he gave such a signal, and right away the issue is the quantity, we understand not only the quality, that's why, exactly so the approach is now inside among congressmen and senators, working with qi, i already said the white house and rather persistently, it is still a belief, which additional defense budgets and which states of the united states of america will be directed by the federal government, which types of weapons, for which key directions will be sent immediately directly to the armed forces, and here we return to the topic of zaluzhny , the key role of just our general staff, military attachés, our military attaché in washington, where the professional military by the professional military of the united states of america, all this is clearly ... prove, justify and act, and now what is happening today i

mr. schumer: madam president. the presiding officer: the majority leader. mr. schumer: tomorrow, for the second time since taking office, president biden will meet with chinese president xi jinping during the apec summit in san francisco. above all, i look forward to president biden pushing president xi on something i raised during the bipartisan codel i led to china -- cracking down on the sale of precursor chemicals used to manufacture fentanyl. when my senate colleagues and i met with president xi, we explained in stark detail how destructive the fentanyl crisis was here in america and that china had a responsibility to do its part to stop its trafficking. one step we strongly urged president xi to take is for chinese law enforcement to coordinate with the u.s. to enforce laws already on the books on the sale of precursor chemicals. i believe that we have made progress on this issue, and i am very optimistic that good news will come from tomorrow's meeting regarding fentanyl when president biden meets with president xi. if china stopped the sale of chemicals

mr. chuck schumer, who is the leader of the democrats in the senate , they hold each other's hands and jointly support the zionist regime, a scene that you will never see in the united states. you don't see the united states, especially in recent years, when there have been severe party differences, but in the matter of supporting the zionist regime, they completely put aside their opinions and give widespread support, that is, a picture that you really don't see for an internal problem in the united states. to support the zionist regime, you see, so this the story that cnn came up with in a way proved that this was a lie of the zionist regime or the numerous reports that the american media are now working on. the bbc had a detailed report for several days . in this regard, this was not what mr. biden's government wanted. change it because my colleagues are still preparing in which the us president's claim that the shafa hospital in gaza was a hamas operation room is rejected . let's see this report together. i never thought that one day i would see photos in which terrorists kill children. sl

mr. chuck schumer, who is the leader of the democrats in the senate, they hold each other's hands and jointly support the zionist regime . you don't see any in the united states, especially in recent years , when there have been strong party differences, but in the matter of supporting the zionist regime , they are completely neutral and put aside that difference of opinion, and the broad support of the face means the image that you really have for a you don't see the internal problem in america at all, but to support you see the zionist regime, so this story that came on cnn somehow proved that this was a lie of the zionist regime or the numerous reports that the american media are now working on . oh, this was not something that wanted to change the policy of mr. biden's government, because the zionist regime is still a serious threat to them. gaza has been the operation room of hamas and rejected this report altogether let's see, i didn't think that one day i would see photos in which terrorists hit children . the president of the united states said this sentence after a telephone conversa
