Great piece, straight TRUTH

Enough is enough. Congress can and should stop this madness. The House and Senate are equally responsible for allowing it to continue.

The president is making a mockery of our democratic norms daily. His contempt for the law is matched only by his contempt for lawmakers. Elected Republican representatives have relinquished their responsibilities and gift-wrapped almost every whim Trump could have imagined

Beyond the threat of being “primaried,” congressional Republicans want power regardless, it seems, of the cost. It is a Trumpian irony that the cost is the systematic erosion of any and all power Congress once wielded. They are capitulating themselves out of a job. So even if they manage to hold on to their seat, they have given away any power that seat once held.

The leader of the House, Speaker Mike Johnson of Louisiana, has done the most to increase Trump’s power and diminish his own than any other member of Congress. He has bent over so far backward it’s a wonder he can still walk.
