SCHUMER vs TRUMP: Schumer Faces Backlash After Blaming Trump For Mexican Ship Crash Into Bridge

SCHUMER vs TRUMP: Senator Chuck Schumer is under fire after suggesting that a Trump-era hiring freeze may have contributed to a tragic Mexican Navy ship crash at the Brooklyn Bridge that killed two cadets. Schumer pointed to weakened Coast Guard staffing as a potential cause, linking it to national security concerns. However, the Department of Homeland Security dismissed his claims, saying the Coast Guard was exempt and fully operational. Conservatives and media figures blasted Schumer’s remarks as baseless and political, with Fox News’ Mark Levin calling him “stupid and evil.” #ChuckSchumer #Trump #ShipCrash #BrooklynBridge #MexicanNavy #NYCNews #USPolitics #CoastGuard #MarkLevin #FoxNews #SchumerBacklash #HiringFreeze #NationalSecurity #BreakingNews #VesselTraffic #BridgeCrash #SenateNews #DHS #ConservativeTwitter #PoliticalControversy #SchumerVsTrump #BlameGame #CoastGuardNews #PublicSafety #MarineAccident #TrumpEraPolicy #VesselMonitoring #SocialMediaBacklash #NYCIncident #PoliticalFirestorm Also Read Donald Trump Says Russia-Ukraine Ceasefire Talks To Begin 'Immediately' Following Call With Putin :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/donald-trump-says-russia-ukraine-ceasefire-talks-to-begin-immediately-following-call-with-putin-4158165.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Takes Another Jab At Taylor Swift, Claims She's ‘No Longer Hot’ After His Criticism :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-takes-another-jab-at-taylor-swift-claims-shes-no-longer-hot-after-his-criticism-4156725.html?ref=DMDesc Who Stands To Lose If Apple Moves iPhone Manufacturing Unit From India To US & How Much Will iPhone Cost Then? :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/who-stands-to-lose-if-apple-moves-iphone-manufacturing-from-india-to-us-how-much-will-iphone-cost-4155861.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.420~

President Lai Ching-te marked one year in office with a powerful message: Taiwan wants peace with China—but not at the cost of realism or sovereignty.
