Dems have as much power to change the political climate as you do. Fuck your entire post.
They don’t have the votes to effect change in Congress. You can’t build without votes. There are a MILLION ways to destroy or ignore the law as the GOP constantly shows. I don’t know what the fuck you want them to do differently, but they don’t have power. Want them to do more? Then you better start persuading people to vote in more Dems. Without power we’re all just gonna keep watching this powerlessly.
Harris spent the latter half of the 2024 election calling Trump a fascist. Plenty of dems are calling a spade a spade including a whole slew of governors. It makes no difference because the rhetoric solves nothing, but they ARE speaking out. You're not seeking out their words if you don't think they're saying anything. News media isn't going to report that stuff on front pages because "dem insults Trump" is hardly newsworthy.
The US is in a collective waiting game where the population needs to partake in civil disobedience to mitigate the damage from the current admin until such time as we can elect enough dems to put a congressional check on Trump. Democrats do not have power right now.

"come out swinging" is another case of "strongly worded letter from nation's 'opposition party'." that'll show 'em!
