90% of it will be spent discussing how much they hate Trump.

Very productive.


How is it going?


Fine.

Many welcomed the opportunity to ask questions. I was encouraged by the discussion of law suits against DOGE. I was discouraged by the sense that current Senate Republicans value Party over Country.

I did not ask the Senators what entities would enforce court rulings in the event that Trump and his team choose not to comply with them.

Waste of time. Google budget reconciliation and spend some time reading because that's what Dems need to be focused on right now, not explaining voting choices that wouldn't have made any difference. The damage that can be done if Republicans get what they want through budget reconciliation will be monumental.

The email that came, eventually, was a form letter saying, “I attended meetings” essentially.

It’s tough to be newly elected and walk directly into a firestorm, but this is Trump 2.0 and totally predictable. It’s why she was elected to try and balance the house.

Van Hollens has been louder and more present. She needs to quickly finish setting up her staff and get in front of this nonsense.

I may be an unemployed federal employee soon. I would be happy to answer her phones and make up crap like that Karoline woman on camera.

Let’s make it known that Maryland is going to take a major financial and quality of life hit by the Musk takeover.


Ironically Hogan would have been more vocal.

Nope. He would have voted for Hegerseth, Gabbard and eventually Patel right down party line.
