Democrats, who are rightly being urged to fight, could grind all Senate proceedings to a halt until Pete Hegseth and Mike Waltz resign. That's should be the ask, not hearings, though hearings are what they might end up with

My ask of D's; An effective opposition party should hold an emergency press conference on the steps of the capital using the military veterans from their ranks and the security committee members to call for the immediate firing of everyone on that chat.
So, yeah, please fight!
Hearings may be better. I’d rather Waltz and Hegseth twist in the wind of their dragging right now, testify in public hearings so the people can see what incompetent liars they are, and then watch them resign in disgrace.
I would love Dem leaders to take an intro-level negotiations class to get this concept through their heads. If your minimum acceptable option is public hearings, you start with resignations and investigations for criminal breaches of national security.
One of the most interesting things to me about people right now? Democrats are not only minorities in washington right now. House, senate, presidency and supreme court. But how most people blame them for what republicans do. Constantly. Then think it's possible for them to do much without...
...america making them pay for it. A government shut down would have stopped all this doing something. And democrats would have gotten the blame for that too. Don't get praise for having stopped the government shutdown. But of course get the blame for being minorities in washington.
After of course. A majority white country made them minorities. Stripping them of as much power/influence as possible. And in the middle of saying this. Another thought arises.
