国会民主党人视明年为目标丰富的环境。但他们也担心，如果什么都调查，可能会显得什么都没调查。
Congressional Democrats see a target-rich environment next year. But they're also worried that if they investigate everything they may appear to investigate nothing.
重要性：民主党人希望超越特朗普首个任期内定义其大部分监督工作的零星听证会、拍桌索要文件和传票威胁。
Why it matters: Democrats want to move beyond the one-off hearings, fist-pounding document demands and subpoena threats that defined much of their oversight during President Trump's first term.
- 资深民主党人表示，目标是围绕政府的“代价、混乱和腐败”构建持续叙事——同时向选民展示他们针对所发现问题拥有立法解决方案。
• The goal, according to senior Democrats, is to build a sustained narrative around the administration's "cost, chaos and corruption" — while showing voters they have legislative solutions to the problems they uncover.
- “我们试图得出指向解决方案的答案，”一位资深民主党助手说。
• "We're trying to get to the answers that point to solutions," a senior Democratic aide said. Zoom in:
深度观察：参院民主党人正积极跨委员会并与众院对应人士协调调查，力求将对特朗普政府的“首日监督”转化为其自身立法议程的持续论证。
Senate Democrats are actively coordinating investigations across committees and with their House counterparts, looking to turn Day One oversight of the Trump administration into a sustained case for their own legislative agenda.
- 设想更多像“1月6日委员会”那样的调查，配有精良视频和引人入胜的证人证词，而非“弹劾1.0版”。
• Think more Jan. 6 committee investigation, with slick videos and compelling witness testimony, than impeachment 1.0.
- 这种协调已酝酿数月，且越来越多地在参议员层面进行，议员们致力于划分调查职责，避免重复劳动。
• The coordination, underway for months, is increasingly happening at the senator level, with lawmakers working to divide investigative responsibilities and avoid overlapping efforts.
- “我们想要让这些调查避免与其他委员会冲突，对吧？我们不想与其他委员会重复，”参议员克里斯·范霍伦对Axios表示。
• "We want to deconflict these with some of the other committees, right? We don't want to be duplicative with other committees," Sen. Chris Van Hollen told Axios.
另一方：众议员罗伯特·加西亚，众院监督委员会预计主席，有一项四管齐下的计划来调查特朗普政府。
The other side: Rep. Robert Garcia, the likely chair of the House Oversight Committee, has a four-pronged plan to investigate the Trump administration.
- 但他只用两个字嘲讽：“找律师吧。”
• But he has a two-word taunt: "LAWYER UP." Between the lines:
言外之意：几乎每个众院委员都有权在无需少数党同意的情况下发出传票。
Nearly every House committee has the power to subpoena without getting sign-off from the minority party.
- 在参院，只有国土安全和政府事务委员会及其常设调查小组委员会（PSI）可单方面发出传票。
• In the Senate, only the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee and its Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations (PSI) can issue subpoenas unilaterally.
特朗普的伊朗战争参议院武装部队委员会正准备于1月举行听证会——并计划传唤黑格塞斯出席作证——这很可能将成为参议院的首要关注点。
Trump's war in Iran will likely be the Senate's first focus, with the Senate Armed Services Committee preparing for hearings — and planning to call Hegseth to testify — in January.
- 还将立即就一项战争权力决议进行表决。
• There will also be an immediate vote on a war powers resolution.
- “我非常明确地表示，我们需要利用手头上的一切工具来结束针对伊朗的非法[激励]战争，这从第一天就开始了，”范霍伦说。
• "I've been very clear that we need to use every tool at our disposal to end the illegal [incentives] war in Iran, and that's beginning day one," Van Hollen said.
接下来的情况：随着胜利范围逐渐清晰，各委员会的民主党人都渴望开展工作。
What's next: As the scope of their victory comes into focus, Democrats across committees are eager to get to work.
- “我正盯着你们呢——大型科技公司首席执行官、华尔街高管和巨型企业。如果你们违法，将会有后果，”参议员伊丽莎白·沃伦怒吼道。
• "I'm looking at you — Big Tech CEOs, Wall Street executives, and giant corporations. If you break the law, there will be consequences," Sen. Elizabeth Warren thundered on
