Whether it was his intention or not, Donald Trump has undoubtedly caused more havoc in the first few weeks of his second administration than any president in U.S. history. The sheer volume of orders, directives, memos, and PR stunts — many of them contradictory and half-baked — has given rise to an atmosphere of widespread fear and anxiety.

Fortunately, a large and fast growing group of advocates and elected leaders is pushing back. And one of the most thoughtful and articulate members of that group is Triangle-area U.S. Rep. Deborah Ross. Ross (NC-02) spoke eloquently at a January rally in Raleigh opposing Trump’s scheme to freeze trillions of dollars in federal appropriations and grants, and as she told NC Newsline’s Rob Schofield, she and her fellow Democrats in Congress and in state government have only just begun to fight.
