Summary
Progressive Democrats accused Donald Trump and Elon Musk of orchestrating a “constitutional crisis” after Musk moved to shut down USAID and gained access to a federal payment system.
Lawmakers, blocked from entering USAID’s headquarters, condemned Trump for granting Musk unchecked power over government functions.
Senator Elizabeth Warren warned that Musk’s involvement could trigger financial instability, while Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez called it a “plutocratic coup.”
I get the first picture but the second? We know democrats do not vote lockstep and we have pretty traitorous members like fettermen are among them. I see 37 voting correctly. This is one thing about when they are in power. People expect them to vote in lockstep like the republicans but that has never been the case.

They expect democratic voters to.
not really. they expect folks to choose better in the choice of better or worse.
So, you’re essentially saying this is normal for democrats? It’s normal for them to go to bat for republicans? How is that a defense?
It never ceases to amaze me how hard people go in making excuses for democrats.
no its more that some democrats are not very much of ones. usually in swing states. I actually agree they should not vote for canidates based on electability but that is a problem with the electorate of the state with the primaries. But yeah democratic canidates in red states can be very conservative but repbulican canidates in blue states will still be very conservative. which is why you don’t want to be voting for them at any level no matter what bs they spew because they will always toe the line which has mostly meant get rid of regulations and lower taxes on the wealthy.
That’s just a No True Scotsman. “The subset of democrats who vote in line with Republicans, thus making all other democrats’ resistance moot, are simply not real democrats”
