We are still being governed by a lawless tyranny that treats the constitution as a dead letter and shows contempt for state and national law and precedent.
In order to restore and reinforce our democracy, we need accountability, investigation, prosecution. Congress must address these issues in January.
I ask you to undertake this rigorously and uncompromisingly in relation to the judiciary.
Trump has appointed an alarming number of judges and his appointees are alarming ready to ignore the rule of law.
I ask you to refuse to appoint any further nominees to judgeships.
If a nominee comes to the floor, use the question "who won the 2020 election as a litmus test.
Explore all possible routes for removing Trump appointed judges who have flouted the constitution and the rule of law.
Congress needs to meet the moment.
Understand that we the people made the blue flip election tsunami possible.
Business as usual in January will not do.
Alongside staunching the geyser of corruption of the judiciary, I ask you to support new leadership in the senate and the house.
