There is absolutely no reason for Dems to vote for GOP nominees, to facilitate the smooth operation of Congress, nor to withhold impeachment of the President and his appointees. Do it all.
Here’s some things that can be done by a party out of power
- file impeachment articles every day in the House
- withhold unanimous consent in the senate and filibuster every nominee
- be everywhere with comms saying this is lawless and impeachable

from what i’m seeing, it appears corporate press is treating trump’s takeover of greenland as an inevitability rather than the fever dream of a dictator

People will say "impeachment doesn't do anything, so why bother?" And the answer is unless you are personally willing to take up arms in violent revolution, impeachment is the process. Malicious compliance is a thing. You file articles of impeachment until it's all anyone is talking about.
Anyone not actively involved in impeaching and no other activity should just resign. There is no government until he is gone. Pretending otherwise props up him, not government.
The number of ways this is unconstitutional lunacy
is…a lot

If Trump is really stealing spending power from Congress then it would be insanity for Democrats to vote to fund the government later this month. Shut it down until the president stops wiping his ass with the Constitution.

Impeachment isn't a tactic, and it's not a matter of practicality.
It's an unambiguous duty. You don't do it because it's smart, you do it because that is what you swore to do.

you simply do not have to preface your statements about this with “but Maduro sucks”
whether or not Maduro sucks is entirely beside the point - we invaded another country and grabbed their leader with no justification other than “we wanted to”
don’t give them cover on it

"Why are we arresting Maduro and not Netanyahu?"
Because Netanyahu works for us, and Maduro didn't. That's really the difference. We are the global hegemon. We aren't the good guys. If Putin gave us oil and tribute, we'd sell him cheap weapons, just like Netanyahu.

An absolute menace. A dangerous tyrant obsessed and infatuated with his power to inflict violence on a whim, against whomever he wants. We are all threatened by this man and the people behind him.
Trump to Fox & Friends on the raid that captured Maduro: "I mean, I watched it literally l like I was watching a television show. If you would've seen the speed, the violence -- it was an amazing thing."

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?”

🚨SCOOP: Amazon is preparing to sever ties with USPS and expand its shipping network as a true coast-to-coast rival.
It could cost USPS more than *$6 billion* a year in lost revenue, and lead Amazon to dominate yet another facet of the economy.
USPS posted a *$9 billion* loss in 2025.
