We need you to lead this party. We need new leadership and we need you.

lockedemosthenes.bsky.social•54 days ago

Hey do you support Chuck Schumer? Because that's gotta change before you get any money from me or my people.

redwingfaninca.bsky.social•55 days ago

This administration knows absolutely nothing about the Supply Chain. Child while hungry and millions of dollars of food goes to waste and farmers stress on how to pay bills

You

There - I've said it

How can we help you make this happen

The time for change is now
We have mere minutes
Until it's too late

Let's free up Chuck
For his story time tour

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social
For Senate Minority Leader

Way past time to chuck Chuck

pshipper.bsky.social•55 days ago

Thank you for raising awareness about the real world consequences of this administration. People who are already struggling will suffer even more as these dangerous changes continue.

MERCILESS😡👎🖤

IMPEACH THE ORANGE OPPRESSOR!😡

My husband is disabled, & we have 2 disabled daughters!💔😥 We are surviving on $125.00 a week for food, & this will be cut in half after more, maniacal DOGE cuts to SNAP!😥 #Impeach #Trump #DOGE #Musk #SNAP #Congress #Foodinsecurity

carolartbeat.bsky.social•54 days ago

Thanks Senator Murphy, for all your efforts

rocknrollghost.bsky.social•55 days ago

Thats important, but we know the GOP don’t care about children after they’re born.
Can we PLEASE get a propaganda machine going to broadcast crap like this to magats? They pretend to care about Pedos.

What is your plan for the national debt crisis. How are you going to ensure our country does not go bankrupt? What spending WILL you cut? I expect you will be running for President in 2028 and this is 100% of how my vote will be made.

wonderingby.bsky.social•54 days ago

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social I saw you on The Daily Show tonight. You need to take everything you said and get it going. Dump the consultants and start a new updated version of the Democratic Party. The ones not on board get cut.

rtjoey1979.bsky.social•55 days ago

Please stop supporting Schumer. He’s no leader. We’re begging for leadership that’s not afraid to fight toe to toe with trump and his enablers. Leadership that won’t fold under pressure. Leadership that actually LISTENS to the voters. Schumer has to go!!!

lola53.bsky.social•54 days ago

Did you tell them that 10 DEMOCRATS voted for those cuts? The Democratic Party needs a Revelotion. Are you ready to lead it?

susersuzanner.bsky.social•54 days ago

Good job on Daily Show. You need to replace Schumer as Leader. Now. Not next year. Not in 2026 or 2028. Now. We are out of time. Then you need to run for President.

And yes, people get Bernie. MAGA even gets Bernie. Keep him out front.

hotdish-frances.bsky.social•55 days ago

Thank you, Senator Murphy! You are doing a good job.

We’re ready for you at the Minority Leader role next!!

Please try to become Minority Leader. We need your voice and action. Schumer is just playing in another game that isn’t being played and we are losing our Country

adbryant.bsky.social•52 days ago

I have written and called your office today. I am gravely concerned about the quickly deteriorating human rights situation we are facing. We are now in a constitutional crisis. I ask that you challenge the current leadership in Congress and seek someone who is aware of this situation, which we face.

vanessasellers.bsky.social•55 days ago

Can you expand on those children that will go hungry? And why the Trump administration wants them to? I truly don’t think MAGA understands that they are being targeted. It’s why education is so important. It might be a different country, time and spray tan but authoritarians have the same playbook.

vanessasellers.bsky.social•55 days ago

Sad thing is, we can all read that playbook.

Schumer has got to go. Everything you say is tone deaf while Schumer/Durbin are out of leadership.
We all know it, as do you.

You need to step up now, you can be a hero of the party, or another chump who didn’t meet the moment.

I hope you have the courage to safe the party.

nursequixote.bsky.social•55 days ago

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social please tell us what the D party is doing about our Constitutional crisis beyond strong wording. We, the People, are growing restless.

democracyin2025.bsky.social•53 days ago

Did you see Schumer's interview with Chris Hayes?!

This CANNOT drag on for months or even weeks. He is NOT SUITED and WE ARE RUNNING OUT OF TIME.

Donations are going to stop. Internal Unrest is going to dominate, when we need to be fighting Trump and Musk, NOT INTERNALLY.

LEADERSHIP CHANGE. NOW

michaelt2300.bsky.social•55 days ago

push for schumer to resign and start withholding unanimous consent in the senate. start talking about impeachment. we are far beyond anything normal now

overit1971.bsky.social•55 days ago

Here in CA allowing ALL children to participate in lunch was the best thing we ever did. I can afford to feed my child lunch and don’t meet the low income criteria, but money can be TIGHT week to week and it’s such a blessing. For families who can’t afford food it’s a lifeline.

Stop posting and do something! You can start by publicly calling for Schumer to step down as Senate Leader. If you continue to support his antiquated approach to leading then you are unqualified to be the future senate leader we need for this moment.

ancientn00b.bsky.social•54 days ago

The only way the Democratic Party regains any credibility is by kicking Schumer out. We all know how bad this regime is so is your party going to stand for ordinary Americans or Wall Street? You are one of the good guys so please help your party grow a spine.
