The Republican -led Congress only see the Trump administration adheres to its constitutional powers. He transformed them enthusiastically into the White House.
The Republican Party lawmakers do so this week by adopting the Stopgap Bill, which gives the administration a widespread discretionary authority on how to distribute federal dollars, in fact, handing over the authority to spend the legislative branch of President Trump. But this is just one example of how to abandon Congress, under the control of unified Republicans, in a pre -emptive control over some of its basic and critical authority in supervision, economic issues and more.
While they cleared the way to pass the spending on Tuesday, Republican leaders in the House of Representatives calmly surrendered to the ability of their room to retreat from Mr. Trump’s tariff for Mexico, Canada and China in an attempt to protect their members from having to make a difficult political vote. This stopped the only legislative asylum that Congress must challenge the definitions that have certainly had a major impact on their voters.
Republicans have also stood up, and many of them chanted, as the administration raised the federal departments and programs funded by Congress and launched thousands of workers without notice or consulting with legislators accused of supervising federal agencies. To date, no committee in Congress has undertaken a supervision session to check the movements or answers that can usually be expected when the administration implement such major changes.
Actor Michael Claude, the Republican in Texas, said this week: “This is somewhat, giving the president’s keys to be able to continue to do the great work they do,” said actor Michael Claude, the Republican in Texas this week. Mr. Claude, who rarely voted in favor of spending bills, explained his support for the Stopgap financing that was passing this week and is suspended in the Senate.
But the feelings described by the comprehensive position of the Republicans in Congress at the dawn of Mr. Trump’s second term, because they are happy that they are turning to the president, who in turn benefits from the most compatible Congress in history.
“They are abandoning it,” said Senator Martin Heinrich, Democrats in New Mexico, about the position of his Republican colleagues towards Congress. “They do this in an atmosphere where this administration is clearly ready to abuse the force it has already.”
In the past, the lawmakers at both sides protect the grass strongly, as they pushed strongly in the moments when the presidents tried to rape the powers of Congress.
Members of Congress saw their place in the first article of the constitution as reflecting the main importance of their branch in the check -in system, and they saw the executive branch aimed at managing their designs. The presidents came and went, and the members often say, while Congress remained fixed.
When the Reagan administration was suspected of illegally selling weapons to Iran and transferring money to the rebels in Nicaragua, Congress in 1987 enabled a two -party bilateral committee to conduct an investigation. When Republicans in the House of Representatives believed that the Obama administration illegally spent money on health care subsidies, they filed a lawsuit in 2014 and won by a federal rule that “Congress is the only source of such accreditation.” Even recently in 2017, when Republicans took control of Congress during the first term of Mr. Trump, a Senate committee has achieved whether Russia had interfered in the 2016 elections to help its campaign, eventually issued a report supporting this conclusion.
With the success of the House of Representatives and the polarized and legislative Senate in recent years in recent years, the authority has been unbearable in the Capitol Hill towards the White House passengers, which was more than prepared to try to practice it with executive orders and other work unilaterally.
But Mr. Trump takes the shift to new levels, partly due to his grip on Republicans in Congress, which he exercises through a mixture of cultivation of warm personal relationships with them and the constant threat that they will pay a great political price in crossing.
Republicans reject the idea that they are giving the White House. They say that the federal bureaucracy has become so compact that only radical action of the level that Mr. Trump and his billionaire ally may produce a significant change after decades of resistance and non -reproductive agency officials. They say they will reaffirm control through the upcoming budget and spending for 2026.
“This is Super Bowl,” Mike Johnson spokesman told Fox News in describing how Congress will work with Mr. Trump to change the way of government function. “This is the moment we were waiting for all of our careers, and finally, the stars are equal so that we can do this better.”
But Mr. Trump, Mr. Musk and other senior administration officials have already made clear that they did not look at the authority of Congress, and Mr. Johnson has placed himself as a president of the president more than a governmental branch leader equivalent to his own authority. Once the legislators have resulted in their authority, they may find it difficult to return, whether during the era of Mr. Trump or a president in the future.
Currently, Republicans do not seem to be interested in the race they are doing. Legislators in the Conservative House of Representatives who usually oppose the draft credits are supported in the short term this week specifically because it will deliver many of the funding decisions that Congress usually maintain for itself.
They said they were partially reflected by themselves because the Trump administration has already proven that it would ignore Congress instructions to allocate money to the programs that legislators voted to finance. The Democrats indicated that as a reason for the rejection of the draft law, but the Republicans said that it gave them confidence that the administration would block money and reduce spending regardless of what Congress said.
“I think comfort is that you have obtained leaders like Marco Rubio in the Foreign Ministry who will not spend the US Agency for International Development.” Mr. Trump moved to the agency, which prompted a legal battle over his authority to refuse to spend money allocated to Congress.
Republicans’ readiness to allow Mr. Trump and Mr. Musk to mix the excessive force of the Congress of the Valley have been canceled by the Democrats who argue that the Republican Party has enabled the seizure of power with the Budget Bill in the Empty Flag.
“Republicans in the House of Representatives did not refuse to address the chaos we saw from Trump and Musk,” said Senator Patty Murray of Washington, the great democratic of the credits committee. “They have already enabled it to this bill, because the Republican Law in the House of Representatives fails to include the moderate detailed spending directives, and the basic handrails provided by Congress every year in our financing bills.”
However, Senator Chuck Schumer, the Democrat in New York and the leader of the minority, moved on Thursday to manufacture votes to allow the Stopgap Funding Bill to move forward in the Senate, arguing that the closure would give up more power of Mr. Trump and Mr. Musk.
Republicans in Congress also abandoned some of their authority in economic issues. On Tuesday, they gave up any possibility to hold a vote at home this year to cancel the presidential definitions. The authority to impose such drawings was originally alone with the legislative branch, but the legislators over time have increased it to the executive authority. However, under the current law, Congress can vote to back down from the definitions imposed by the president.
In light of the language that the Republican Party leaders enter into a procedural scale this week, this law will actually be canceled.
“They abandon their most important constitutional commitment: overseeing the executive authority in trade,” said actor Richard Neil of Massachusetts, who is the best democratic in the Roads Committee and the means that led efforts to impose voting on decisions to end the definitions. “The Republicans have shown us unambiguously who are – cowards who throw the president on everything, including the economy.”
In the past, Congress usually summoned the cabinet secretaries and other high -ranking carpet officials to explain administrative reforms of much less important than chaotic shooting, comment on programs and financing discounts implemented by the Trump administration now. There is no sign of this yet from the Republican Congress.
Democrats, who fell to the minority in both rooms, have no power to collect supervision sessions, and the Republicans soon rejected their calls and called them to summon Mr. Musk. Instead, the Republican Party lawmakers gathered with Mr. Musk behind closed doors and convinced themselves with a mobile phone number to increase any concerns they might have.
In their last efforts to compel Mr. Musk and the Administration, the Democrats prompted both the House of Representatives, roads and means “investigation decisions” committees to demand the administration to provide comprehensive information about Mr. Musk’s activities, including internal communications.
Decisions carry a special place that can force them to the House of Representatives Hall to obtain votes. Republicans are unlikely to support them, but Democrats see them another opportunity to highlight what Mr. Musk is trying to put Republicans in the record defending his work.
