Too bad your GOP colleagues couldn’t be bothered to do the same. This is truly a terrifying time for your constituents. We now have 2 sexual predators in positions of extreme power. 😢
It's amazing to me that only three of your Republican colleagues were capable of seeing the danger his confirmation represented. I despair when I think what will happen when RFK, Jr. comes up for confirmation if they continue to so misguidedly indulge an even more mad choice.
A Major from the National Guard is now going to run the entire U.S. military. Think about that, let it sink in.
To put it in perspective, it would be like taking a store manager from a Walmart in Minnesota and suddenly making him CEO of the entire damn company.
A man full of self hate with destructive tendencies, answering to a man bent on dementia fueled resentment and endless greed, funded by a man removed from identification with humanity by a diagnosis and unfathomable wealth.
What could go wrong?
Thank you for standing up for the country and trying to oust him. I tried my best to convince my two Senators—to no avail.
The Republicans are obeying in advance and have pretty much decided to do whatever the president wants— no matter the cost.
I am a very angry veteran and I feel deep, deep shame
🙏U were all excellent❗️incredibly impressive & comprehensive battle against incompetency. Powerful team effort showcased Ur experience detail exam of Hegs toxic misogyny, racism, & religious intolerance. Folks are proud of U Dems 🎶 “No!”chorus w/each contributing Ur special verse. Keep it up for all❗️
Senator Heinrich, you’ve been vocal, but now’s the time to get LOUDER. Rally the troops, shake your colleagues awake, and lead the charge. If we don’t act decisively, our democracy is dead. @thedemcoalition.bsky.social @thedemocraticparty.bsky.social
Let's keep it simple Senator: "Hegseth is an incompetent drunk. Republicans like Ernst who voted for him put party and loyalty to trump over the country. The soldiers and citizens who end up dead due to his idiotic willingness to do Trump's dirty work will be on these Republican senators' hands."
Thank you! I agree with many that we need Democratic leadership to outwardly speak the dangers of nominees like him. The weaponization of the DOD and DOJ is the biggest fear I have now. Eroding the quality of the departments is pushing us ever closer to a cliff it will be hard to step back from.
So proud to have you as my senator. Thank you for standing up for what's right. Please continue that fight, not just for New Mexico but for all Americans.
Of course you would. You think people like this 👇 are going to make America strong. We are tired of the world laughing at us. That is why Trump won the election in a landslide.

Whatever happens to this country will be laid at the feet of the Republican party.
Didn't work for, ain't qualified but daddy has to push him in.
Everything else should be immediately disqualifying to hold any federal office, elected or nominated.
