Congressional Cowards Enable Trump’s Authoritarianism
This collection of letters to the editor expresses widespread outrage at the current political climate. Several authors condemn Congressional inaction regarding President Trump’s alleged abuses of power, including the unlawful deportation of a U.S. resident, and urge immediate impeachment. Others criticize the lack of oversight regarding potential conflicts of interest involving Elon Musk and DOGE, as well as Idaho’s recent legislative decisions prioritizing wealthier interests over essential social programs and environmental protection. Finally, several letters praise Boise’s mayor for her defiance of what are seen as oppressive political maneuvers.
