There’s an easy way for Murkowski and her colleagues to not be “sick to their stomach.” Simply acknowledge truth and reality for a change and actually DO YOUR JOB as opposed to worrying only about keeping your job. Try doing that for a change. Otherwise STFU and leave.
@lisamurkowski.bsky.social
So do something…YOU
And your repugnant colleagues have the ability to stop the destruction of our democracy…stop writing and take some action 💪
Religious piety towards tax cuts must be the most important trait for this cult. Otherwise, she'd switch parties. Collins will continue wringing hands, but Murkowski seems like she wants to do the right thing.
This alignment ensures nuclear proliferation. Betrayed and exposed, our allies will unite and rearm. The U.S. is no longer a guardian but a threat, as Trump dismantles the world order that once secured peace, stability, and prosperity.
Ominous clouds are gathering! Trump is dismantling the world order that has ensured peace & prosperity since it was forged 85 years ago from the ashes of 80M lives. As allies lose trust in the USA for security, nuclear proliferation will accelerate, making the world even more dangerous and unstable
And she will keep voting with the GOP. If the congress had any spine, they would stand for the rule of law and uphold their oath to defend our constitution.
Terrified because they're cowards? They don't need the jobs they have. They're afraid of bad guys coming after them? Ask AOC and Jasmine Crockett how they can manage to speak out day after day. They are simply pathetic cowards all....
Did you see this? Alaskan state legislative leadership called on their federal elected to restore checks and balances. All states especially red ones need to do the same. All of their budgets will have steep deficits without federal funding.
Remember when Mitch McConnell could have put an end to this? Republicans with backbones could easily do that the right way this time! This debacle is solely placed upon the house and the senate republicans! They need to step up for what is right and stop lying to their constituents!
Think Lisa needs to take a seat; she and her cowardice are largely responsible for this. Or, turn independent, caucus with Democrats and convince others in both houses to do the same and save democracy. Otherwise, she has nothing to contribute.
My great grandfather, grandfather & my father were conservative midwest republicans arriving in Ohio in the 1870s. The party they trusted & believed in, the party of freedom & democracy is gone.
Specifically, the Republican majority that controls the Senate and House. The Republican majority the Senator is a part of. Elections have consequences. Voting matters.
It would be handy if @lisamurkowski.bsky.social was on a committee that has something to do with government spending, like the Appropriations Committee. Maybe she and Sen. Collins could have a hearing to see what is going on.
They are all bought and paid for! Called our Senator’s in OH, nothing but voicemail. Even town halls around the country are a joke. @lisamurkowski.bsky.social you could have done something to prevent this traitor to become president again and you didn’t. Now we are just a disgusting mess.
They think they will matter in the long run if they stfu. But let me inform you all they wonr matter in the short run the relevance they have now is running out like a sand timer so either stand up of GTF OUT OF THE WAY
Republicans sold this country down the river when they refused to impeach Trump not once but twice. Specifically, thanks Mitch. And now that party is held hostage by a man who is not about American interests, his rhetoric be damned. They are scared by both Trump and his supporters.
This woman voted against almost everything that is sane and normal- shes still a Trumpty loyalist and I trust her as much as i trust Trumpty with a bucket of KFC
Exactly! I guess their the lives of their children, grandchildren, and down the line, mean nothing to them. Trump over family. Job over family. Didn't they preach "family values"? Wtf kind of a country do we have!
Senator Murkowski is not the only one who is sick to her stomach! But she is in a position to DO SOMETHING! She still has 4 years until Elon can pay to have her primaried. C’mon, talk to Susan and Joni and stand up for Ukraine and the women who need you! RESIST BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE!
Sooner or later the American people will take action against congress for not impeaching and removing the turd. WE may very well impeach all of congress the hard way. We didn't break from Great Britain because they wore wigs & talked with accents - we broke because of their treatment of us...
What’s this “appears to be”, as in “the administration appears to be walking away from our allies”? That’s exactly what they’re doing, and everybody knows it, including the administration! What’s the point of acting like it could possibly, perhaps, maybe, just might not be what everyone knows it is?
It’s time. We are very near the point of no return and Republicans know it. The damage already done will take decades to recover from. He needs to be removed by the power only Congress has. Democracy and decency must be restored.
and look into who is really writing the 100's of exec orders! Certainly not histo-law dim Trump. For all his intent and glee in destroying our institutions,not Musk. More light must be shed on the Proj25, ChristoNationalist, $1% behind scene forces driving this attack on our democracy.
I want to see all Democrats (and any Republicans, Murkowski?) at the State of the Union stand up en masse and walk out. Hold your own state of the Union outside. We need to see a display of courage. Stop worrying about being primaried. You may gain more votes by standing in opposition to this regime
About time she woke up - NOW DO SOMETHING TO STOP THE GOP!!!! Remember adding amendments to bills to stop them in their tracks????? GOP been doing this for over 50 years
Murkowski’s full of shit.
She only votes against Senate Republicans when she knows they have enough votes to pass whatever evil scheme they’ve concocted.
Congress stop being spineless and stand up for Americans & stand up for human decency 💪🏼💪🏽💪🏼 for all of us and for our Allie’s.
You have the power to do something. Haven’t you all had enough of Trumps BS !!! All of you Republicans & Democrats do your jobs that we elected you all to do. Fight for us 😤
If only they had Zelensky’s courage to start the impeachment process. The best they can do is feel sick or pretend that they did not see this coming, even if the felon told them so
As a Republican senator, Sen. Murkowski needs to do more than post. She and her colleagues need to take action now before it’s too late. Please take back the power of the Congress!
The best is they think if they dinr say anything nothing will happen to them. Please they will stomp them all out tye minute they see they are irrelevant. Which is only possible by giving up before they even ask.
Stand up now or be pounded into dust
AOC, Jasmine, Bernie all oppose Trump. Nothing has happened to them. If she was only voted in because of Trumps support, then she doesn't deserve to be in office.
Yep. And this is what happens when you hand-wave a bully and his actions for years. Now we are a country on the brink of being a USA the world has never seen. We are already a place the democracy-based world can't rely on and needs to actually avoid to protect itself.
If the majority of our elected officials would stand up for our Constitution and defy the MF, he'd be hard pressed to get them all. I suppose his J6 Army might try.....but I'm willing to bet against them too. There are many of us who would step in to help protect them for doing the right thing.
Oh goodness and risk being primaried? Susan Collins ran on the promise that when she got in office she would introduce a bill to limit Congressional and Senate seats to 12 years. I think she's going on something like 18 now isn't she?
You probably realize by now that the only place a country can go once it abdicates justice, is to violence. What we call bad now, is going to get a whole lot worse before it is over.
Exactly, Joyce. And now Murkowski is wringing her hands. Can someone tell her she still has the option of changing parties? Obviously she could have voted to convict him, twice, but maybe the pearl-clutching Senators and Reps could actually do something.
Talk is cheap, Murkowski. But apparently so is your vote, since you voted against continued support for Ukraine. You are a coward, as is every other republican.
Impeach and remove trump and Vance for treason , they are helping our enemy Russia . Desperate times call for desperate measures - do the right thing .
Lisa should keep her mouth shut unless she has a plan to do something to help our democracy and get seven other republicans to sign on. And I mean SIGN ( in their own blood!).
How is it not treason that he is literally embracing a dictator and ignoring American values and the Constitution of the United states? Him pardoning the leader of the proud boys was treason on its own.
Do the decent people of the GOP have the capability to persuade, bribe or blackmail others to do the right thing. McConnell had all the power in Congress and now he can't get one person to vote with him? Why? Because it's all for show!
If you can’t even say the demented felon President’s name, it’s pretty hard to do something about him.
Republican Party, congrats. This week you officially became the POP (Party of Putin.) Bravo 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Lisa, as long as you consider yourself a Republican and proudly wear that label, I will consider you to be a traitor and a supporter of authoritarianism and Putin.
I know…I’m so sick of words without action.The Republican Party has the opportunity to stop this but there is absolutely no will to do it!Senators like Murkowski know how wrong all of it is but they haven’t the backbone to switch parties or create legislation that keeps us from becoming an oligarchy
I really can’t comprehend how Republicans don’t understand that the only power Trump/Musk have over them is the power they ceded. Collectively, they possess more power than Trump/Musk could ever wield. They could say, get dark money out of politics. That eliminates Musk and by default, Trump
It’s rumored that some republicans fear for their personal safety. And until the Russian mob boss and his cronies are done squatting in the Oval Office, posing for tv in costumes of American businessman, perhaps we, the larger number of Americans who are not down with this, should offer protection 🤷♀️
Start standing UP to the son of a BITCH and DO what your constituents PAY for you to do!!! You better start WALKING THE WALK because we’re FUCKING 🤢🤢🤮 of hearing you TALK THE TALK come the PRIMARIES you may have to LEARN to walk all OVER again…OUT THE DOOR!!!!!
When the US withdraws from NATO & the UN, pushes for Russia to be in the G7, ends all aid to Ukraine, and drops sanctions against Russia, Collins and Murkowski will write a "strongly worded letter of concern."
Since the GOP think everything is for sale, why don't we get out our checkbooks and start buying them back? The math says three in the House and four in the Senate would do it.
due to the utter fecklessness & dereliction of THEIR SWORN DUTY putting the U.S. in these unenviable situations / scene in the Oval Office on Friday ➡️ Americans best cut any “ Republican” label from our Gov’t for the time being ➕ invite a new “conservatism” NOT BASED IN HYPOCRISY & WHITE SUPREMACY‼️
What get me is her saying “I am sick to my stomach as the administration appears to be walking away from our allies and embracing Putin”.
APPEARS TO BE??
it’s as plain as day what is happening right now
OK all of you "concerned" repubs, it is time to live up to your oath. You all need to leave the repub party and become independents, hopefully caucusing with the dems, and do something about these corrupt, treasonous traitors. How "concerned" are you really?

Republicans are the Confederates, y’all. If it votes like it’s still 1799, it’s a Republican.
Instead they keep telling us what we already know and feel. I don’t want to hear how they feel. I want to know what they are going to do about it.
I pray and hope.
Democrats… I have no idea what's going on.
They think they will matter in the long run if they stfu. But let me inform you all they wonr matter in the short run the relevance they have now is running out like a sand timer so either stand up of GTF OUT OF THE WAY
If BLUE holds to a, "Do Nothing and Let RED Implode", strategy-it can't Clearly Show any difference from Chaos-Ridden RED.
Voters Might Even Think, "Well, Hell. RED's Better Than Nothing."
BLUE Must Get Back In The Fight-Now!
ACT RIGHT NOW!
She only votes against Senate Republicans when she knows they have enough votes to pass whatever evil scheme they’ve concocted.
You have the power to do something. Haven’t you all had enough of Trumps BS !!! All of you Republicans & Democrats do your jobs that we elected you all to do. Fight for us 😤
Not defending her AT ALL, her actions (and inactions)is a big part of the reason we are here today.
Stand up now or be pounded into dust
Murkowski and Collins don’t get to be victims here.
You have the power.
Or March down to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave & demand his resignation; there is precedent.
You can see the problem, right?
She is complicit in all of it!
She knows Trump’s policies. She knows Putin runs the GOP. She supported every bit of it.
The sick stomach is because of massive Republican firings of food safety inspectors.
Let's make any Republicans with a scintilla of patriotism have pause and consider...
Voters did not vote for turning our back on Ukraine.
Voters did not vote to decimate their local communities & economies.

Nothing like waking up to GOP traitors that has been known by most people for years. This isn’t fresh hell.
That bridge has been crossed forever. The US can no longer be trusted.
When will enough be enough, at long last?
It is our right and duty as Americans to push back on them - HARD.
