Do the Democrats have a plan for leveraging the Continuing Resolution and the Debt Ceiling to bring Trusk to heel? [View all]

The GOP can't govern by itself, and it can't wrangle enough votes to pass these things on its own because of assholes inside of its caucus (surprise!).

Democrats could, if they were actual fighters/strategists/communicators/politicians that cared about the rule of law, leverage their votes to get some god damned law and order to apply.

Like, withhold their votes until Felon Muck is behind bars for breaking a million laws.
