I see a false narrative rising in US politics.
Some argue that the new Congress should focus on delivering for the people rather than holding the administration to account.
That is a false dichotomy.
Corruption undermines any Congress' ability to deliver for the people. Investigating the administration is not about retribution. It is about ensuring that money lost to corruption is recovered, so it can benefit the people instead.
It is not an either/or. Congress can do both.

@randahl@mastodon.social One thing Democrats should be absolutely hell-bent on implementing is the national popular vote compact at state level, to make sure that any future President cannot play some white supremacy swing state game to win, but actually has to win the popular vote. Because this is the weakest point where the democracy broke down as it had been softened up, to accept supremacy vote agitation.
