Liberal activists are furious with Democratic senators after most of them agreed to reopen the federal government without a firm path to shielding young immigrants from deportation.
As the third day of the shutdown dawned, liberal advocates and immigration groups fired off a joint statement blasting as "unacceptable" Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell's (R-Ky.) offer to merely hold a vote on immigration — with no promises for action from the House or White House — in exchange for Democratic votes to reopen the government. But three hours later, Democratic senators agreed to just those terms — sparking anger on the left.
"Millions of people flooded the streets of every major American city to stand up to Trump this weekend," tweeted Leah Greenberg, the co-executive director of the influential activist network Indivisible. "Your constituents want you to fight. How can you possibly not understand that?"
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer on Monday argued Democrats secured critical assurance for Dreamers, who are at risk for deportation as soon as March after President Donald Trump's decision to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program.

[ Liberals livid after deal to end shutdown ]
Liberals can stay home in 2018 and 2020.
That will show Chuck Schumer about shutting down the government because of illegal aliens.
Chuck Schumer cares more about illegal aliens than American citizens. Just like a couple of the NWO Booshes.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
The Lib’s can’t imagine getting played.
They are so accustomed to spineless Republicans caving to media pressure, they can’t believe this happened.
They will again overplay their hand with the 8 Feb deadline and try to force major concessions with DACA.
“”Millions of people flooded the streets of every major American city to stand up to Trump this weekend,” tweeted Leah Greenberg”
???
When?
Where?
I haven’t heard of any such protests.
We should have placed wall funding in the continuing resolution. We should have rammed it right down their throat!
The “popping” sound is their heads exploding! Making America Great Again! MAGA not DACA!
I love when a plan comes together.
I thought it was Fireworks
Why do you suppose that was? Didn't Georgie Soro have enough money to pay rent a mobs there?
“We should have placed wall funding in the continuing resolution. “
I agree.
Completely.
Along with the end of Chain Migration and Visa Lottery.
The Schumer Shutdown has become the Schumer Shurrender.
“Didn’t Georgie Soro have enough money to pay rent a mobs there? “
No.
He couldn’t find anyone willing to publicly protest there at any rate.
Not for illegals.
In the Obama days, illegals took to the streets in masses to protest. When they try that now, ICE shows up.
MAGA not DACA!
My heart is warmed seeing liberals turn on Chuckie.
I want to see more of it.
The war against liberals will never end.
But today Trump and the GOP won a battle.
Some 500K illegals really DID flood downtown Dallas when they knew for a fact W wanted them here.
No La Raza in our streets for quite a while. What does that tell ya?
I saw a lot of fakebook posts this weekend about the “protests”. They were all up-close pictures of small groups holding rude signs. Up close so you couldn’t see the crowd. I saw no wide-angle big-crowd photos posted. I wonder why.
Yes, Travis has some pics of that I think. Reconquista, etc.
Let’s see them try that NOW.
Hello? ICE....?
