I also think our local governments should be calling on Congress re articles of impeachment and condemning our war criminal president.
A functioning Congress will have articles of impeachment drafted by the end of the day.
Our Congress will just go to social media to basically say “We don’t like this, but what are you gonna do?”

FCNL strongly condemns the U.S. government’s illegal attack on Venezuela and kidnapping of President Nicolás Maduro and his wife.
Congress must reassert its war authority and stop the Trump administration’s reckless war-making. #WarIsNotTheAnswer

This is not an Administration focused on deporting “the worst of the worst.”
They are targeting our neighbors, coworkers, and classmates — families that live peaceful lives and sustain our communities.

ICE shift in tactics leads to soaring number of at-large arrests, data shows
The agency has moved away from focusing on arresting migrants at local jails to tracking them down in communities, a Washington Post analysis found.

We spend very little on DC Statehood. We’re not serious about becoming the 51st State.
A statehood advocate claimed elected leaders are too comfortable within limited Home Rule and only give lip service to 51.

The Ward 3 Democrats unanimously passed a resolution defending D.C.’s Home Rule and demanding full Statehood.
700,000 Washingtonians deserve the same rights as every other American—no more federal overreach.

Frustrating indeed. The council could also spend more on DC Statehood efforts so that we have a fighting chance of being represented in Congress. We currently spend 300k on becoming the 51st state. You get what you pay for.
People really need to start demanding more from the members of Congress. The leadership on BOTH sides has been so frustratingly passive.
They knew we were dealing with man who could be manipulated & who didn’t like diplomacy. He’s been talking reckless for weeks — & Congress did nothing.
