Retired after 40+ years of federal service (USAF & Federal contractor). Stationed in UK & West Germany, watched the Berlin Wall come down live on TV; watched the reunification also on TV, saw fireworks on TV but my small German town was totally silent.

Why haven’t you done this for all trump appointments? McConnell certainly did so when gop was in minority why can’t you learn from that & be tougher?

We can pressure the GOP but I believe in the end they are more afraid of F47 than their constituents when it comes to voting.

When are taking your turn? When is Sen Padilla, Warren, Schumer or anyone else doing this…. Maybe not to break Sen Booker’s time but to call attention to trump administration actions & the consequences for their constituents… since the news is covering this pretty good

Go Sen Booker! So proud of him… why don’t other Democrats do the same… take a day each & stagnant regular order? Show some fight … how about it Sen Padilla, Sen Schiff?

Where (if there is one) is the red line for the GOP to cross & impeach or visit his office & have a ‘come to Jesus meeting’ with POTUS (remember senators visiting Nixon)… like that would make an impression on the king…

I see this going all the way to the Supreme Court & rules against the administration…what happens then when Trump defies the Court’s ruling & continues deporting people? Have we just lost our democracy?
comment in response to

No surprise that he won… no doubt that he cheated like he always has… always a winner but never responsible for any wrong….

How certain are you the Supreme Court can rein in POTUS ? What happens when he defies them? The house won’t impeach him & even if they did the Senate won’t convict because they are terrified of the repercussions

What are we missing? Would the shutdown have given Trump Mush carte blanche to continue gutting the government? What does funding the government to 30 Sep do for the country… please explain
