The Dorkin Report - I'm Glad They're Here
I know a lot of folks have been wondering where the Congressional opposition to Trump has been. Yesterday, Democrats finally showed a stronger, and more united response to the tyranny unfolding in front of our eyes.
After being denied entry to the USAID building, Dems held a press conference to speak out against Trump’s attempted closure of the agency. Standing alongside USAID workers and contractors, they made it clear that this abuse of power would not go unanswered.
Sens. Schatz and Van Hollen pledged they would stall all State Dept. nominees, until Trump stops trying to close down USAID. Van Hollen went on to slam Elon Musk, saying he “may get to play dictator of Tesla…but he doesn't get to shut down USAID,” calling it a “corrupt abuse of power,” that’s “plain illegal.”
Sen. Chris Murphy firmly stated “this is a constitutional crisis,” and that “Elon Musk does not get to decide” how we defend the US. While Rep. Jamie Raskin said, “we don't have a fourth branch of government called 'Elon Musk’.”
