During their protest of Russell Vought’s confirmation, Senate Democrats sounded the alarm about Vought’s role in drafting Project 2025 and his support for vastly expanding the power of the president.

Vought, said Wisconsin senator Tammy Baldwin at 10:30 pm eastern time on Wednesday, “has openly called for the president to defy congress and take control of federal funding decisions that are constitutionally vested in the legislative branch.”

Schiff accused the Trump administration of unlawfully attempting to break down the separation of powers and said Vought would play a role in aiding that effort.

“This is an effort to try to consolidate power, all the power of this government, in the hands of Donald Trump and a few of his hand-picked very wealthy, billionaire friends,” said California Democrat Adam Schiff.

    “Democrats sound alarms”

    “Democrats protest”

    “Democrats come out and say mean things about Trump and Musk”

    I mean I like that they aren’t silent about it, but if I get the chance to attend one of these events, I want to truly ask them “So what are we actually doing about it?” Because, so far nothing that has been tried seems to even phase these turds and the Democrats still use the same platforms owned by these silicon valley bastards (ie. Twitter, Google, etc.)

    If they truly want to hit them where it can hurt them, then they should plan a way to use their voices and positions of influence to guide the rest of America in abandoning all of these platforms and boycotting their businesses, and while this on itself might not be the silver bullet, it will be a start.

    Another thing, stop investing in stock market, commodities exchange, and crypto.
