House Minority Leader Rep. Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., on Monday announced the creation of a new “rapid response task force and litigation working group” which will aim to “push back against far-right extremism.”

That’s not acceptable in the wealthiest country in the history of the world.” The move comes as Democrats increasingly voice anger over actions taken President Donald Trump. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., told Politico in an interview blame lies with the Senate, which is overseeing the process of confirming Trump’s Cabinet nominees.
Senate Democratic Leader Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., last week also spoke out against the Trump administration, targeting Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency . The presidential advisory committee has begun making inquiries into several federal agencies.
