With two months until the midterm elections, Democrats are laying the groundwork to launch far-reaching investigations into the Trump administration and preparing for high-stakes court battles if they win control of the House of Representatives in November.
Donald Trump’s war with Iran, his White House ballroom project, his family’s business dealings and the administration’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files will be among the top targets of investigations if Democrats take back the House, according to conversations with over a dozen Democratic lawmakers and aides.
Democrats don’t want to squander the opportunity to act as a check on Trump if they reclaim the majority and say they have learned a lot since the last time the party controlled the House while Trump was in office. Few say they are interested in launching an impeachment process on day one, and many instead are eyeing a new tool that would be at their disposal to try to quickly compel the testimony and documents they seek: lawsuits.
Nobody expects that Democrats are going to do a single thing. I have said for decades the oligarchy will never charge one of their own. Regardless of what liberals want to think, Trump is one of them. And I’ve been right every time.
They do plenty but you dont follow politics.
That’s cute, Their only opposition to Republicans is a random sternly worded letter.
What would you have had them do differently?
Not have Jeffries and Schumer anywhere near leadership to start.
Yet when McConnell was the minority leader his party was able to get everything they wanted.
Not them but maybe appoint someone other than this guy as the “punish the people who tried to overthrow democracy” guy.
