I realize we’re all overwhelmed by the firehose of insanities that President Musk and Vice President Trump are blasting us with these days, but it really is worth pausing to note that one of the forty scandals that dropped yesterday — the mass resignations over the Eric Adams prosecution — is truly, truly a big deal.
While the Dems should do all of the things you mentioned 98% of them won’t do a thing. They are cowards. Or complicit. Take your pick.
Lee H has it right. If the Dems won’t support the DOJ attorneys who showed how to take on corruption, then we know they won’t do a damn thing to support anyone who stands up to trump et al.
Every single Democrat who isn’t speaking up today - forcefully, proudly, loudly - in support of the attorneys who refused to take part in corruption should resign by 1700 hours today. If you refuse to be part of the resistance against fascism - whether for cowardice or complicity - go home and write your book about how everyone was mean to you. Give up the job to someone who actually cares about the kind of country America could be.
Why we don’t see Ds en masse screaming about this? If we don’t support the DOJ attorneys, why can we expect others across the government to also stand up?
God, do I miss Sherrod Brown! Now we Ohioans have two MAGAt Republican Senators. The only hope is that one of them (Jon Husted) will have to run in 2026 if he wants to keep the seat vacated by now-Vice President Vance.

My Democratic representatives went to Washington and all I got was this lousy moral cowardice.
The Governor need to act - now!

There are very few brave Dems left. The rest of them are complicit in the actions of this administration.
Thank you for also making me laugh - I’m in desperate need of some laughs (“ … as god as my witness is only 43 years old”)
Take the chances when they come
