for a party supposedly fighting against the rise of fascism, they didn’t try very hard at all.

They're also still in power until late January. Settling aside the very large question of "why would you willingly hand over power to fascists?", does anyone think they'll do anything to even make it harder for Republicans to do all the awful things they ran on?

Biden could pardon every person charged with a federal immigration crime tomorrow, with the stroke of a pen. He could then order everyone in ICE custody released immediately and fire everyone he can in that agency. If I was seriously concerned about Republicans deporting tens of millions of immigrants, this would be the bare minimum I'd do.
