> Congress has no ability to really intervene and monitor what's happening because these aren't really accountable public officials.
Congress gets to make laws. They can intervene by making a law that allows them to intervene, which is the job we elected them to do. Apparently they prefer getting bossed around instead.
Not with a two-thirds majority--which I realize sounds to the modern ear as politically impossible, but we're going to have to change that if we want to survive as a nation. The whole "living document" aspect of the constitution is a rather important one.
I don't even have much to say about which sorts of decisions that two thirds should make--that's their job--I'd just like it if they grew a spine and started making some.
