I blocked a lot of political keywords, so I am genuinely asking because I might be ill informed. What concrete actions have the Democrats taken to block, stop, or reverse Trumps illegal actions?

Again, I am genuinely asking.

Congress is stacked against Democrats. There really isn't anything they can legally do until they regain the Senate or the House

Except praise ICE, I guess. It doesn't really matter that Congress is stacked against the Democrats. They've shown everyone who they are and what they stand for and it's not clear in the least that they would behave significantly differently if they were in power. From Biden building the wall to Kamala saying "Do not come", and all of the messaging of the Ds since they lost and now 75 Ds voting to praise ICE...

This bill is about denouncing the antisemitic attack in Boulder with a single line at the literal bottom reading,

expresses gratitude to law enforcement officers, including U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement personnel, for protecting the homeland.

I won’t stop you from holding politicians accountable for every line of every bill they vote for but you’re distorting reality to fit your narrative. There is nothing wrong with supporting this bill and I question why anyone would reject it.
