House Democrats are preparing a vast oversight agenda, with investigations of President Donald Trump, his family and his administration if the party sweeps control of the chamber from Republicans in the November elections.
The undertaking is as robust as it is daunting, spanning several House committees. With majority power comes bigger budgets and staff, and the ability to investigate, subpoena and potentially course-correct what the Democrats say are widespread corruption and abuses of power. Impeachment of the Republican president and Cabinet officials is not off the table.
“There is a cost to the American people of the out-of-control corruption,” said Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries of New York, who is in line to become House speaker if Democrats win control at the Capitol.
2020 should have been the end but democrats wanted to run against Trump again so they could be as terrible as they wanted to be.
“Vote for me… or else” is not democracy, it is a hostage situation.
And they are planning to do it again with the most neoliberal conservative candidates they can find. Establishment dems need to be dealt with harshly.
