The joy coming from Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer will tell you everything you need to know about this week’s major rulings from the U.S. Supreme Court:
"This is a wonderful, wonderful day," Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer says in emotional statement on the Senate floor following the Supreme Court DACA decision.
"It gives you some faith that the laws, rules and mores of this country can be upheld." https://t.co/ZwJVPphHWA pic.twitter.com/6QdFu40zg1

I literally cried tears of joy when I heard the DACA decision.
The wonderful young Dreamers and their families have a huge burden lifted off their shoulders.
One day they will become American citizens. https://t.co/exh0OIlniJ

Schumer chokes up on Senate floor: "The decision is amazing. I am so happy these kids, their families— I feel for them & I think all of America does. Again, I cannot— the Supreme Court who would've thought would have so many good decisions in one week. Who would've thought. Wow."

Remember earlier this year when Schumer went to the SCOTUS building and warned certain justices they’d “pay the price” for rulings that don’t fall in the Dems’ favor? Schumer was back, but this time his tone was much different:

It’s amazing what a couple rulings falling in the Democrats’ favor did to get rid of Chuck’s “do what we demand or else” attitude. Schumer has John Roberts to thank in part for that.
