IF YOU ONLY DO ONE THING
Ignore this noise. Focus attention on the 13 substantive Trump administration actions listed this week that actually affect governance structures and citizen rights.
Why This Score
This is routine congressional ethics accountability with zero Trump administration involvement or constitutional implications. One Democrat calling for another's resignation over an indictment is standard legislative ethics theater with no governance mechanism, institutional lever, or downstream policy impact. The event generates minimal hype and has no strategic distraction value.
