I fully support everything that was discussed in this interview and all six of the policy recommendations.
I have phoned and written Chuck Grassley (R-IA), Joni Ernst (R-IA), and Mariannette Miller-Meeks (R, IA-02) literally dozens and dozens of times in the past year, begging them, chiding them, demanding them to follow the oath that they swore to follow the Constitution and carry out their Article I responsibilities.
While I will continue to do this, I have to admit how exhausting and frustrating it feels because they simply do not engage on this level in return.
They just ignore any discussion of Constitutional duties and deflect to pet talking points —usually something to the effect that Joe Biden ruined the country.
I was hoping for some instruction about ways to speak to these republicans that they might actually respond to, like their Achilles heels or specific pressure points.
For example, Joni presumably is picturing herself making zillions of dollars as a lobbyist in her post Senate career. I want to know what I could possibly tell her to make a convincing case that few will accept being lobbied by traitors too feckless to carry out their Article I powers.
Demand that congress do their jobs. Hold them accountable by calling, writing, emailing or protesting at their congressional offices. Town halls should always be a part of the process in holding them accountable and finally the courts.

I think we are talking way too much while, at the same time we are actually doing nothing.
The Trump Administration continues to wreck our country and murder people.
All I see is 1938 Nazi Germany.
America, it's time to De-ICE!
thank you for bringing up the republicans blocking the immigration bill in 2024
