It's really turned to relinquishing so much authority to the executive branch and Congress really taking a backseat, whether it's on the subsidies or these talks about ICE reform right now.
You know,
President Trump is in the driver's seat and Congress is not really doing much to stand in the way or even being asked to do much to help further this agenda, especially as we're getting so close to the midterms and people are turning to thinking about their reelection bids and less about the action that's happening every day here in the House and the Senate.
Yeah, I mean, this was a fleeting mention, as you said.
And I think part of it might be that this is the third government shutdown that we are in the middle of in just the last couple of months.
So I wonder if it kind of starts to lose its luster once they pile up.
But I think the reality also is that negotiations really aren't going anywhere.
In the early days, we had Democrats and Republicans trading offers back and forth.
But a lot of that has really slowed down.
And we've seen...
almost no visible signs of any progress towards some of these reforms related to the tactics of federal immigration officers after these two deadly shootings in Minneapolis.
And this really follows a cycle that we've seen on several issues in this Congress, that there is a national crisis, a number of Republicans and Democrats say that they're going to do something about it, and then the talks inevitably fizzle.
And that seems to be the posture that we're in right now, and it doesn't look like that's going to change anytime soon.
soon.
Well, I should just say, like, this is why Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries was telling his members, if you're going to come, do it in silent defiance, not by trying to make these boisterous protests, because it plays right into this line that we just heard from the president that
Democrats are crazy.
They're out of line.
And we did see a little of that.
There was some shouting and mouthing words back and forth to the president.
You know, things about, you know, the shootings of Alex Preddy and Rene Good.
