If President Trump wants to pressure Russia with “high levels of Taxes, Tariffs, and Sanctions,” he should also consider seizing frozen Russian assets.

DO NOT Allow A Freaking Nut Job To Kill us All!! RFK Is Stupid and Dangerous and You will Literally Flush All The Good You’ve been doing in Holding The Corrupt SC Down the 🚽 IF You Do That!!! they trying to kill people Off Right before a Bird Flu Pandemic And You’re Going to Help??!!!! NO!!
They are all working together to destroy the economy and weaken the United States. It is a coup on a large scale. They Lie, Distract and Deceive. As if we can’t see them. 👀👂
I sincerely hope you are not considering a vote to confirm RFK Jr. We need a strong opposition now, not cow towing to a regime bent on putting people into government to destroy the country and what it stands for. Your supporters deserve to know about your intentions.
If you are friends with RFK jr then know that you are friends with anti-vaxxer, pro-fascist who will literally cost American lives. This is shameful. Choose better friends. More importantly, vote no because American lives depend on it. In other words, do your job.
Senator, I have always highly respected you. I live in another state, so although I am not one of your constituents, I ask that you do NOT vote to confirm RFK Jr. Many of us have had to part way with Trump sycophants. Country first.
Sure, good luck.
In the meantime, maybe you folks could start fighting against the fascists in power and stop trying to meet them across the aisle. There is no compromise with fascism.
Hey I am worried about your loyalty to RFKJr. He had his dead wife dug from her grave for God sakes he is a dangerous loon and you have too many ppl to be responsible for.
You never bargain with fascists…I can’t believe we actually have Democrats bending the knee. We clearly need to either reform the Democratic Party or establish another that isn’t clinging to the past: establishment Dems. We need leaders who fight for their constituents. You can’t compromise!!! 😡
Hey, I guess nobody told you but you’re in the opposition party now. That means you vote against everything trump wants. Every nominee. Every cloture vote. Every bill
Voting for RFK Jr??
How dare you even consider doing that you fool!!!!!
Polio, whooping cough, measles???
He has already killed children in Samoa you dam fool.
The mere fact that you might be thinking of voting for RFK jr. is so disappointing. All the good work you do will be overshadowed by your willingness to let children die by supporting this fraud.
Looks like your post is getting a lot of engagement! Now that all eyes are on you, this would be a killer time to say something cool like "I will not vote to confirm RFK Jr."
I’ve lost friends over trump. I get that he is your friend but he is not a good choice. Please don’t vote for RFKjr because a lot of bad things will happen.
Sir, please do not vote to confirm RFK jr. yes he once was a promising politician. But now his mental condition has deteriorated and he is dangerous. Thank you
Your potential vote for RFK Jr. would be unforgivable. It would be a sign that there is nothing honorable about you in comparison to any other politician playing politics. Proof that I and your RI supporters were mistaken about you all along. VOTE AGAINST RFK PLEASE. HE IS A MENACE.
Please don't put the country in peril by voting yea on Kennedy. His connections to Russia via Bannon are suspect - aside from his unfitness for the job.
What are your thoughts on the fact that the "president " admitted he cheated in last years election? How about the fact that the world's wealthiest man, an elected official, is helped him win? 🤔
Hello SSW, I would like to see the entire Dem Coalition en masse talking to the American party that elected you all. Where is the outrage as the D team? Why aren’t you reassuring us all w a
Media blitz as one unit one voice. LFG and fight back!!
@hakeemjefferson.bsky.social @chuckschumer.com
I hope that the rumors are not true that you are thinking of confirming RFK Junior. You’re one of my favorite senators and your work on the Supreme court issues have been so important to our country. Now it is not the time for cronyism.
really willing to shred your credibility and vote for a crackpot science denier directly responsible for killing children? What the ever living fuck is wrong with you. Oh he's your college buddy? Well okay then.
If you're wanting to be a counter to the felon's worst impulses and policies, maybe don't vote to confirm any of his nominees. Being buddies with them in college isn't an excuse to give them power to harm millions of people.
Stop being an enabler to fascism and the destruction of the republic
How would giving RFK the gift of a wildly powerful job he's totally unqualified for any different than Harlan Crowe giving Clarence Thomas a billionaire lifestyle and $260,000 RV as a way to keep him on the court?
100 percent - I would lose all respect. He's just a flake like Durbin if he votes for 'his friend'. I dumped a friend from childhood in 2016 bc she voted for Trump.
Trump is too busy systematically destroying the federal government as well as the constitutional order. The courts are the only legal guard rail left. Senator, what's the plan for when he ignores the courts, which he sure as shit will?
Why the fuck are you entertaining voting for fucking rfk jr? The fact that you're still friends with him is horrific enough. The blood of the people he kills will be on your hands if you vote to confirm him.
You better not vote for RFK because you're buddies. I am just a middle class woman and I dumped life long friends in 2016 for voting for Trump. Do freaking better with your privilege.
I have long admired you & your work on the judiciary committee but if you not only vote yes but advocate for RFK jr, I will add my voice to the others who promise to do anything in our power to replace you. Democrats need to start acting like the opposition party & show some fight
Don't confirm RFK Jr. I don't care if he is a godfather of your children. He's going to get lots of people's children killed and is a dangerous lunatic.
Are you planning on voting to confirm RFK Jr.?
If so, please know that you will be indirectly responsible for killing Americans, and very likely people worldwide. I hope you can live with yourself, should you confirm him. That would be one helluva cross to bear. Just sayin’
Why would you vote for your friend to kill millions of Americans? It’s bad enough. Trump already killed most Americans that get cancer so you’re going to vote him in because he’s a friend.
If you vote to confirm your dangerous buddy RFK, every child that dies a preventable death will rest on your shoulders and your conscience. Assuming anyone in the senate still has one.
You sir, will lose most of the goodwill you have built up with the American people if you for to confirm RFK Jr due to your personal relationship with him. He's a grifter and a danger, which you well know
Senator Whitehouse, I have always liked you and thought you were one of the ones to not conform and I am seeing you are thinking of voting to confirm RFK Jr, Please do not for the sake of all Americans
If you vote for RFK then prepare to get voted out of office ASAP. RFK is literally a deadly threat to the entire nation. Do not vote for him. You’d be insane to do that
It seems obvious that RFK’s nomination is a quid pro quo from Trump : “what do you need to drop out of the race and tell your followers to support me? Sure you can run health care” It is not based on qualifications. Please do not vote for this man who helped get Trump elected.
It’s being written you are entertaining the idea of voting for your friend RFK Jr’s confirmation. And here I looked at you as a man with serious convictions. RFK Jr is a threat not only to our country, but the world. Think long and hard about your vote.
The thing is he really does not want to, he’s pretending, to ‘prove’ he’s not Putins puppet. Gaslighting yet again. He thinks we believe him, but he’s delusional ( again)
I have much respect for you, particularly on climate & prison reform, but I read today you might vote to confirm your buddy RFK. I have a lot of friends I go way back with and would do anything for, but none of them are qualified to be Secretary of Health. Please consider same might be true of you.
Rule #2: Don't offer honest advice to fascists. Try this: "Trump's talk about taxing Russia is probably just a plea for them to pay him more bribes. I know he won't threaten their assets though, because most of their investments are in him and his corruption of the country."
If you vote to confirm RFK Jr., then you are both corrupt and spineless, and you will share blame for the lives that will be lost as a result of that madman.
Are you going to vote for the wildly unqualified and very dangerous RFK Jr because he is your buddy?
that would literally make you a traitor to America.
We are being swept away, you useless, impotent Democrats I don’t give a shit about tariffs. What about what’s happening to people, to LGBT, doing away with federal disaster response, doing away with equal opportunity laws, get off your fucking asses and fight.
You will betray every single sane person in this country if you vote for the nut RFK. Don’t come here to post anything again until it’s saying you won’t vote for him.
PLEASE do NOT vote to confirm RFK! A vote for him helps him do HARM to to our children with his conspiracy theories! I have two Autistic children who are paying attention to what he says. They understand his conspiracies are dangerous. Vote NO on RFK.
Focus on the Billionaires in government! Over 60% of Americans are against having Billionaires ruling over the American people. That's the message that will break thru
You can't vote YES to confirm RFK Jr. Please listen to the millions of scientists and doctors against this horrific appointment. We are entering a dark era in terms of medical research and oversight in the US, please do not contribute to making it worse.
DO NOT confirm the inept. We do not want you, any of you, to work in a bipartisan manner, especially when these dangerous and glaringly unqualified candidates, are going to be a threat to public health and safety.
He should, but he won't, because he's a tool.
Speaking of, I have family who work in healthcare. If you vote for RFK Jr. and some insane policy he approves results in them getting sick in another pandemic and dying, I will hold you as responsible as well.
If you fucking confirm RFK you will be persona non grata i don't give a fuck if you're friends with this weirdo. We aren't gonna die for your fucking buddy.

I did not ask him nicely.

Shut down the rising concern....asap

In the meantime, maybe you folks could start fighting against the fascists in power and stop trying to meet them across the aisle. There is no compromise with fascism.
They will harm our country.
Clearly the Senator is unfamiliar with the 14th amendment
Remember the PEE tapes?? 😆 🤣 😂
Trump doesn't scare putin lol 😆 🤣
But also, why are you still friends with him you weirdo?
How dare you even consider doing that you fool!!!!!
Polio, whooping cough, measles???
He has already killed children in Samoa you dam fool.
Media blitz as one unit one voice. LFG and fight back!!
@hakeemjefferson.bsky.social @chuckschumer.com
Asking for all of sane America?
Also, you ever leave dead bears in public parks? If not, why?
Confirming him would be a slap in the face and a knife to the health of every single American.
https://talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/dems-worry-sen-whitehouse-considering-vote-for-rfk-jr
Stop being an enabler to fascism and the destruction of the republic
He and putin are putting on a play.
Why doesn't Trump ( and I mean Trump, not the US) buy Russia?
It has to be available at a great discount, with all of its financial issues. Has lots of natural resources too. Great upside potential.
Then he can have his own country.
And leave us alone.
If so, please know that you will be indirectly responsible for killing Americans, and very likely people worldwide. I hope you can live with yourself, should you confirm him. That would be one helluva cross to bear. Just sayin’
It may be true that Whitehouse knows RFK Jr., but that doesn't equate to "he will vote to confirm him."
And reducing oil prices
This isn't about your friendship, it's about our lives.
Take your position seriously or quit
that would literally make you a traitor to America.
Have you heard about the measles outbreak RFK Jr. caused in Samoa where 80 kids died?
You will be responsible for the deaths of tens of thousands of people, inlcuding children.
do not
it will tank your credibility forever AND you know he is NOT qualified
Speaking of, I have family who work in healthcare. If you vote for RFK Jr. and some insane policy he approves results in them getting sick in another pandemic and dying, I will hold you as responsible as well.
Also Whitehouse: “I’m voting to confirm his most dangerous secretary pick, cause we’re pals.”
