Democrats Have a FIVE-POINT PLAN to Take Down Trump's Agenda...

Democrats won Congress, and that means subpoenas, hearings, and the power of the purse come January 3rd. In this Legal AF breakdown, Resident Legal Diva Melba Pearson lays out her five demands for the new Congress: investigate ICE detention; release the Epstein files and Jack Smith's blocked Volume Two; hold members accountable for representing Black communities in redrawn districts and make Election Day a federal holiday before 2028; use the power of the purse to reverse Big Beautiful Bill cuts, restore programs, and follow the ballroom and Iran war money; and investigate DOGE and Elon Musk while making fired Black, Brown, and women workers whole. She also explains why a presidential veto is so hard to override, why the Big Beautiful Bill cannot simply be reversed in a spending bill, and where Democrats really have leverage. Results are still being finalized, and this is legal and political analysis, not a prediction.
