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.
Democrats plan to wring their hands harder than ever before and demand their conservative co-conspirators in the GOP stop being so unreasonable before approving every cabinet appointment and every law conservatives want.
Neoliberals are conservatives and need to be dealt with as such. American fascism will never stop until we finish Sherman’s work.
We need to act individually to make that happen. Do your part. Get your hands dirty and help end fascism one conservative at a time.
Well said. Finish Sherman’s march once and for all.
The impeachment idea becomes more popular as centrist establishment Dems and like-minded GOP realize maintaining the current admin is more damaging to their wealth portfolios than maintaining the status quo.
So if it does happen, it’s to serve the interests of the ruling class, rather than the populace they’re supposed to represent. Unless the admin can counter with a “deal” that’s too sweet to refuse.
True. Anything the establishment dems do will be in their own self-interest only. Neoliberals are conservatives and will only serve themselves.
