Just keep going. Goodnight, heroes.

Every single Democratic governor and attorney general needs to do this -- if only to make it clear to voters *right now* that the firings and funding freezes that are about to hurt their states badly are the work of Trump-Musk in Washington.
Get ahead of this now, or get blamed for it later.

Arizona AG Kris Mayes, New Mexico AG Raul Torrez, and Oregon AG Dan Rayfield will begin holding Community Impact Hearings — a national series of townhalls "to hear from the public about the impact of federal firings and DOGE funding freezes across the country."
The first will be in Phoenix March 5.

I don't know why Dems would *only* hold up Vought's nomination and *only* in response to these funding freezes. HOLD UP EVERY NOMINATION EVERY TIME. TRUMP WANTS TO KILL YOU. HE WILL NEVER COMPROMISE.
