In Politico interviews published October 19, 2026, two DSA members likely to join the next House class, Malak-Hiros of Colorado and Daryaliza Chevalier of New York, said they do not plan to impeach President Trump a third time, arguing it could help him. Both said they want accountability that produces material change, with Chevalier pointing to Congress reclaiming the power of the purse. The discussion has widened from that tactical split to what a Democratic majority would actually do: Issa says it would investigate Elon Musk and President Trump. Whether the incoming members' preference for material change over impeachment survives that investigative push is still open.
