They are a minority so not sure what you’re expecting to have happen there.

I don't know, they could at least obstruct as much as the Republicans did for them whenever the Democrats were in power and had a chance to pass actual progressive legislation, but chickened out and said they needed to compromise the shit out of it to make a bipartisan effort, since the Republican minority was blocking anything and everything they tried to do.

Then you should follow a little more closely on what the dems are doing in the kilmar case. And it’s not even just the dems. It’s everyone vs maga.

They are making it more inconvenient and way more court time and congress time for every single one of the maga members to have deported without due process than it would have been just to let kilmar have due process.

It’s becoming a bit of a masterpiece. It’s like the oj simpson trial only at congressional and judicial level.
