MSNBC's "The Weekend" unleashed on Sen. Chuck Schumer on Saturday after he supported the GOP spending bill and voted to avert a shutdown, as the panel argued the move was a black mark on his leadership.

The U.S. Senate on Friday passed a stopgap spending bill, averting a partial government shutdown, after Democrats backed down in a standoff driven by anger over President Donald Trump's campaign to slash the federal workforce.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and some Senate Democrats agree to let a short-term spending deal pass the chamber, believing that cooperating with Republicans was preferable to forcing a government shutdown.
