In just five days, Trump’s administration indicted a Democratic member of Congress for engaging in oversight, threatened to arrest a Democratic governor for governing in accord with his mandate, and handcuffed a Democratic senator for asking a question at a press event.

Voters in Missouri passed a ballot initiative enacting paid sick leave and raising the minimum wage.
In response, the Republican state legislature repealed paid sick leave and scrapped a key provision of the wage increase.
