During their protest of Russell Vought’s confirmation, Senate Democrats sounded the alarm about Vought’s role in drafting Project 2025 and his support for vastly expanding the power of the president.
Vought, said Wisconsin senator Tammy Baldwin at 10:30 pm eastern time on Wednesday, “has openly called for the president to defy congress and take control of federal funding decisions that are constitutionally vested in the legislative branch.”
Schiff accused the Trump administration of unlawfully attempting to break down the separation of powers and said Vought would play a role in aiding that effort.
“This is an effort to try to consolidate power, all the power of this government, in the hands of Donald Trump and a few of his hand-picked very wealthy, billionaire friends,” said California Democrat Adam Schiff.
This is why leftist keep losing elections and their legislation doesn’t get passed. They refuse to work with other ideologies and they don’t have enough voters to accomplish anything alone.
Democratic Party is made up of people the voters chose. Many of whom are moderate.
If leftists can’t get enough voters to change that, it won’t change.
Politicians don’t cater to groups that don’t vote.
Nah, they just cater to their corporate donors and folks that would never vote for them. Sliding more right every year and expecting everyone to hold their nose.
And then you want to blame leftists, when this is an alt account my main is on hexbear. Most real leftists I talk to voted for Harris. Because we’re not idiots.
But keep blaming us that the Democrats ran a shit campaign chasing Republican voters and corporate campaign dollars, while neglecting to get their base off the couch.
