Sorry, but this is such a cop out.

There's nothing else she can do, the democrats cannot force any legislative action here and it’s not like Trump is asking for confesses permission so there is nothing to filterbuster.

Wrong. They could do things like

• Obsruct every bit of business the Republicans bring in both houses
• Vote NO on every appointment
• Go nuclear on any Dems that vote YES, publicly call for primaries against any Democrat not holding the line, and support primary challengers
• Go on every media outlet talking about how Trump has no right to usurp the Congressional power of the purse and no right to touch funding of programs passed through Congress
• Hold town halls both in their own districts and Republican districts
• Refuse to authorize or re-authorize the AUMF
• Issue Subpoenas for Musk and every member of DOGE, grill the fuck out of them, and hold them in Contempt of Congress if they hear any bullshit from them
• Organize rallies and marches
• Issue public statements that Americans, and people globally, should stop buying Teslas
• Work with Canadian and Mexican counterparts on strategies to torch Musk businesses
• File any and all relevant lawsuits against Trump and DOGE members, and follow through
• Use whatever Congressional powers exist to subpoena/FOIA and publish any data about DOGE/Musk/etc they can get their hands on

That would be a start. You know, generally DO something and not be the rich, complacent servants of Wall Street they are. Or they could, hold a stupid signs during the SotU, send breathless donation solicitation emails, tell us they can't do anything because of the parlimentarian or whatever, and cross our fingers and wait for 2028.

Patty Murray sucks.
