Team I is in charge now.
Not sure about that. We now have the most far right-wing Republican administration in history, as well as the most far left-wing Democrat opposition this country has ever seen. Granted some in each party have gone outside the boundaries of their own party, such as Fetterman or Collins, Murkowski, Massie, Fitzpatrick, etc, but they're still operating with a "D" or an "R" next to their name.
There are very few true Independents in Congress and for the most part, their influence seems to be negligible. The only one I can think of is Bernie Sanders, and he's about as far-left as they come, always voting with the Democrats.
