As I’ve previously mentioned, the midterms are still months away, but the indicators aren't trending in Republicans’ favor. There's time to course-correct, but that window isn't open forever. What should concern every American right now isn't just the prospect of a Democratic majority. It's what Democrats have openly said they plan to do with it. And they haven't exactly been subtle.
The damage they’ve done as the minority party has been bad enough. The Department of Homeland Security has gone unfunded. Long lines at airports weren’t even the worst of the problem. In the weeks since Democrats cut funding for DHS, there have been four terrorist attacks on American soil.
“If Dems are willing to shutdown DHS just to prevent President Trump from enforcing our immigration laws, I think it's reasonable to ask: How far will they be willing to go if they come into power?” asked CNN’s Scott Jennings on X on Monday
It’s a great question, and we pretty much know the answer.
Last month, the former Obama official Susan Rice made clear that a Democratic return to power won't come with any grace period or healing rhetoric. "This is not going to be an instance of forgive and forget," she warned. "The damage that these people are doing is too severe to the American people and our national interests." She also told corporations they'd better start preserving documents and bracing for subpoenas. "Companies already are starting to hear they better preserve their documents, they better be ready for subpoenas," Rice said. That’s a threat and a promise if I’ve ever seen one.

The retribution agenda will be significant, I guarantee it. A Democrat majority in the House would mean impeachment hearings, weaponized investigations targeting Trump, his administration, and everyone aligned with them. ICE agents — the men and women actually enforcing the law — would face prosecution.
They’ll call it oversight, but it's payback.
Perhaps the most telling data point in all of this is Michigan Sen. Elissa Slotkin. A terrorist attack happened in her own state during the shutdown. She voted to keep DHS closed anyway. Then she kept blocking the funding after the attack. A senator whose constituents were directly victimized chose obstruction over their safety because the cause was preventing immigration enforcement.
"We can all agree that this is highly irresponsible," Jennings said on CNN Sunday. "We're at war, and we have the thing called Homeland Security closed. I know it was a long time ago, but let's all go back and remember how this started. Democrats don't want to have any funding or enforcement of our immigration laws."
If Dems are willing to shutdown DHS just to prevent President Trump from enforcing our immigration laws, I think it's reasonable to ask:

The Democratic Party isn't hiding what it wants. It wants power back and revenge. The only real question is whether enough voters are paying attention to realize that Democrats don’t care about them, just their anti-Trump crusade.
