    Things the Executive can do alone:

    1. Executive order rescinding all Trumps EOs
    2. Abolish ICE and dissolve DHS. Trump did it with USAID so I don’t want to hear “Congress has to approve it”.
    3. Instruct the DOJ to prosecute ICE agents and investigate anyone on the Epstein Files.
    4. Instruct the DOJ to prosecute all Trump Admin officials. (Put Steven Miller in a pillory on the national mall)
    5. End all govt contracts with Palantir and Elon Musk’s companies.
    6. Hand Pete Hegeseth and Marco Rubio over to the ICC for boat bombings.
    7. Stop the White House ballroom and all other vanity projects.

    Things they need Congress to do:

    1. End/Reverse Citizens United
    2. Expand the Supreme Court
    3. Impeach all Trump judicial nominees. Especially Emile Bove and Aileen Cannon.
    4. Expand the House of Representatives.

    Truthfully, Trump has done irreparable damage to the US both domestically and internationally. I don’t think most of us will live to see it fully rolled back. The most important thing the next Dem president can do is punish the Trump admin. Show that there are consequences and the rule of law matters.

      I would vote so hard for any party/candidate with all these items as their primary objective. But most of these sure as hell aren’t going to be on the Democrats’ plan of action.

          I agree, but the Venn diagram of “is a member of the Democratic Party” and “has the fucking guts” is close to two separate circles. Which is why I said what I said.
