With Democrats raging at Senator Schumer for his support of a government funding deal endorsed by President Trump, the Senate minority leader is postponing a number of book tour events because of what is said to be “security concerns” about the Senate Minority Leader. Protests are being organized by liberals online who disapprove of Mr. Schumer’s “yes” vote on the spending deal to keep the government open through September. 

Mr. Schumer was supposed to be on tour this week promoting his new book, “Antisemitism in America: A Warning.” The House and Senate are out of session until the week of March 24, which allowed the Democratic leader to schedule four events during which the public would have been able to confront him about his votes in the Senate.
