<p>On Friday Democrat Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY) took to Twitter to use the Natural Disaster in Texas to further his own Agenda. Although thousands of miles away from the event, the Hurricane seems to have taken out his connection to the outside world along with his memory.</p>
<p>Senator Schumer posted &#8220;As Millions of People in TX and LA are prepping for the hurricane, the President is using the cover of the storm to Pardon a man who violated a court&#8217;s order to stop discriminating against Latinos and Ban courageous transgender men and women from serving our nation&#8217;s Armed Forces. Then he ran to Camp David. The only reason to do these right now is to use the cover of Hurricane Harvey to avoid scrutiny So sad, so weak&#8221;</p>
<p><img class="wp-image-77 alignleft" src="http://opinion.twentythreered.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/schumer-3-300x294.png" alt="" width="581" height="570" srcset="http://opinion.twentythreered.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/schumer-3-300x294.png 300w, http://opinion.twentythreered.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/schumer-3.png 590w" sizes="(max-width: 581px) 100vw, 581px" /></p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>After reading this I was bewildered to Senator Schumers connection to the outside world and obviously has not been a working vacation for him. Just to Recap some of the dates involved &#8220;In the cover of the storm&#8221;</p>
<p>July 26th 2017 President Trump announced via Twitter &#8220;After consultation with my Generals and military experts, please be advised that the United States Government will not accept or allow Transgender individuals to server in any capacity in the U.S. Military. Our Military must be focused on decisive and overwhelming victory and cannot be burdened with the tremendous medical costs and disruption that transgender in the military would entail. Thank you&#8221;</p>
<p>August 22nd 2017 at a Rally in Phoenix AZ President Trump told supporters he was going to Pardon the Sheriff Joe Arpaio but said &#8220;but I won&#8217;t do it tonight because I don&#8217;t want to cause any controversy&#8221;</p>
<p>The military announcement was made 1 month ago to date and the Pardon announcement was made when Harvey was still on Mexico&#8217;s Yucatan Peninsula moving Northward.</p>
<p>What amazes me most is NY has always been an In the Know kind of State and the fact that one of their Senators is so clueless to the world around him makes no sense and reflects badly on the people of NY he represents.</p>
<p>Usually Senator Schumers clueless memory lapses seem to trickle down to Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) and Senator Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) when they play the Three of a Kind out of the Dumb Card Deck, only time will tell.</p>
