At the very least, if the Dems get control of the house, there has to be some actual oversight which is the Congress job to begin with.

At this point, GOP victory means a far right dictatorship in the US or something close. The Democrats are at least the lesser of two evils.

The current Far Right is better than the previous Far Left puppet that was blindly signing anything put in front of him by special interest groups. They hid it until the very end and it was too late for Kamala to take over.

No POTUS was ever "far left", even FDR was lukewarm centre left, more to the centre than any European leftist party in the 1950s-70s.

Obama and Biden both count as centre/centre right in current European politics.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not exactly happy with Democrats either. Quite frankly, I'm sick of both parties.

In my own opinion, Congress has been laughable since the 2008 election. Lots of evidence to back it up for those who care to look.

As for oversight, Congress started to abdicate that since The Patriot Act was signed into law. Any "oversight" now is more for theater and less for results.

Both parties have their respective agendas now and neither is good for the country.
