Democrats barely had time to celebrate their election victories before revealing an agenda that could put their newly regained congressional power on a collision course with the American public.
After campaigning as pragmatic moderates and promising to address voters’ economic concerns, several prominent Democrats are already talking about investigations, impeachment proceedings, and a sweeping government takeover of the nation’s health care system.
The sudden shift is raising questions about whether Democrats learned anything from their previous electoral defeats. Rather than focusing on inflation, energy costs, and the economy, party leaders appear eager to turn Washington into a battleground against the Trump administration.
And the irony is difficult to ignore: Republicans spent years warning voters about precisely this kind of political overreach.
