House democrats armed with subpoena power and new found Political Capital plan to hold President Trump to account. It is a divided government which this morning remains partly shutdown for the 13th straight day and the standoff could last for weeks. So frame this moment for us. If you take a snapshot of what today looks like, it would be very easy to say that this is the crossing of two paths, the coming not only democratic majority, but coming democratic dominance in american politics.
