I bet she is "very concerned"
I bet she is "very concerned"
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 💪
Murkowski can not even say Trump's name. She could start having an impact by voting against Trump's wishes.
So she’s a tad past ‘concerned’ to maybe ‘alarmed’. I just want to know if she will ever ‘uphold the Constitution’. Republicans are the Confederates, y’all. If it votes like it’s still 1799, it’s a Republican.
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.
But, she will just sit back and let it happen. Useless and lazy.
IK,R?
Wait until Frump gives away Alaska to his master
😂😂😂
🤔. Hmm. Amazing how little our elected officials know about their jobs. Oh oh, when will they get the “you’re fired” emails?
😆 if only
Imagine if the Senate could hearings about some of this stuff 🤔
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
It's been a long time coming. This is why We the People need to name the game!
And he sure as hell did not spend his own money on that ad!
I see nothing but fear and shame on the part of elected politicians (on the left and the right) — Both sides refusing to act. 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.
Talks like a Democrat, but votes with the Republicans almost every time.
Yep
Right?! They obviously CAN do something about this mess, but they CHOOSE to sit on their hands and watch the destruction from the sidelines.
Good idea. Who wants to tell her...
Lisa and her excuses.
You and the lackies are the only reason that man could run for Prez, Thanks
Third times the charm... I pray and hope.
Then do something Senator- fighting to keep Putin out of our politics might keep Alaska from being gifted back to Russia.
She is shit person! She pretends to care and the supports the thing she “cared” about.
DOGE is bullshit misspelled
The republicans are terrified of trump. Which, ironically, will be his undoing. One of these days he’ll go too far and take them with him. Democrats… I have no idea what's going on.
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!
Thank God for the women…

Then do something about Lisa!
Poor Lisa, it must not be easy to be a dumb idiot like that... she is not helping anything, in fact, she's helping making it worse.
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.
She and Susan are very concerned that Trump maybe hasn’t learned his lesson.
They’ve sold their souls
A normal Congress would have impeached him more than a week ago.
A normal country would not have given him a second chance to destroy it.
Or even elected him the first time. 😞
Does she find it concerning?
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.
All talk ,Murkowski… quit the damn party if you mean what you feel
Specifically, the Republican majority that controls the Senate and House. The Republican majority the Senator is a part of. Elections have consequences. Voting matters.
“I’m deeply concerned”
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.
Change parties and fix it. You could do something truly meaningful and patriot today. YOU could save the Republic Lisa... CHANGE PARTIES! @lisamurkowski.bsky.social
Thank you, I shared too!
It's not America First, more like America Last!
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.
I would say if they only had COURAGE www.youtube.com/watch?v=z2it...
How about switching parties boom done but nooooo. 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
They do have tge ability the * gop* do but they choose not too. And that is unacceptable.
Why do women have more balls than any man in congress.
Not Murkowski or Collins, unfortunately.
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.
There is no Republican member of congress willing to defend the US Constitution and its people. Not one. They are all compromised trash.
I am in awe of someone who wields rhetorical devices with such skill and flair.
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
She supported him from day one.
The Republicans in this Congress has allowed Elon/Trump to cut off its collective balls once again.
They do, Joyce. They do.
Stop saying stupid shit like “appears”, we all know exactly what is happening.
Those Cowards/Accomplices won’t do a thing to stop it. We the people must do it!
Where is the Dem Press Conference? Pay out of your pockets if you must! SPEAK UP ON NATIONAL TV! MAKE A STAND! GROW UP!
I'm sure Trump has learned his lesson on who started the war in Ukraine.
At some point our country should be more important than being afraid of losing their jobs. Step up and see what happens you cowards 😡
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!
Better get those impeachment papers ready. And get some GOP to Jump the fence. All of you are gonna be fired. If not by him? By us!!
Her, "Deeply Concerned" meter level is off the charts!
Lisa, please speak out and withold money!! Stop them!!
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!
Poor Lisa if they had only pulished a book saying all of this oh my bad they did.
Someone who lied about losing an election is lying about who started a war? Shocking. 🤯
So are Sen. Collin’s and Sen. Murkowski best friends because I get the same vibes and inaction.
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.
Please speak louder Senator and encourage others in your party yto do likewise.
If only a Republican senator had the guts to change her part affiliation to independent and caucus with the Democrats.
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.
Lisa needs to switch parties and step up to lead.
Yes maybe an elected representative…
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
Certainly seems that way given the way town halls in red districts have been going!
They don’t seem to realize that their “constituents “ can also primary them and if they do they will probably loose.
Not when the sheep are in charge they don’t.
What if Just-Lay-Low BLUE-Waits Too Long to Fight RED? 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!
Oh now she is sick to her stomach??? Where was she when during the cabinet confirmations? It's a little late now.
If only…
Me: waiting for Lisa Murkowski and/or Susan Collins to grow a spine and actually follow through vs being "concerned"
@lisamurkowski.bsky.social, then do something! And stop confirming his terrible, dangerous Cabinet appointees.
THANK YOU
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
she should stop whining and do something
It would be nice if congress gave Ukraine back all of the nuclear weapons that America took in 1994 in exchange for security guarantees to Ukraine.
Unfortunately, I think the document only talks about assurances, not guarantees. Deviousness instead of responsibility and courage. As always. I just don't understand why we aren't better long ago.
Yes, that never seems to be mentioned
The worse of it is that Russia is being seen/treated as an ally and friend!
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.
Heard there might be some concern. At least they’re not at the thoughts and prayers part of the surrender of the country.
She needs to sit back down. She has zero credibility. She can fuck all the way off.
So what are you and your GOP colleagues going to do about it?
Oh my God Lisa! Take some Tums and do something before it’s too late! Action not tweets!
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!
Why doesn’t she call Trump out directly?
Fear of retribution, most likely. We’ve all seen what happens when someone defies him. Not defending her AT ALL, her actions (and inactions)is a big part of the reason we are here today.
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.
I completely agree. To many people were (and still are) willing to look away, and not hold him accountable for his actions. Murkowski and Collins don’t get to be victims here.
*too
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.
One step at a time. At least she spoke truth.
Congress is so weak and pathetic. No-one has a spine.
Impeach & convict the bastards. You have the power. Or March down to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave & demand his resignation; there is precedent.
Murkowski: Gather your GOP colleagues and remove these Traitors from office.
She is as cowardly as the rest of them
Exactly!!!
They won’t. Their cowardice defines them.
They did! Impeachment 1 & 2. Zebras never change their stripes.
Call your congress rep. Demand articles of impeachment be brought against VP first, then FOTUS. In that order.
Murkowski is shocked the people she supports are doing what they told her they were going to do.
That "something" will require insertion of a spine into certain members of congress. You can see the problem, right?
Why is it that the only one with guts enough in the Republican party to call trump a disgrace, is a woman?
If only…
She is no better than Susan Collin’s - I’m concerned claim She is complicit in all of it!
Exactly...
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.
It can’t. The majority of them believe in Jewish space lasers and Elon Musk.
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.
A little late to action Lisa
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!).
Do fucking something
Yet she votes for his nominees and agenda. Until and unless Murkowski leaves the GOP and caucuses with the Dems, this is empty.
Exactly-just a little too late maybe?! 🤬
FUCK LISA MURKOWSKI
She’s clutching her pearls again.
Senator, do something!
Now she cares?
It’s nothing but hysterics and performative drama. 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.
B should do something other than vote for his bs.
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.
Fat chance in hell.
The have the ability. That's not what's lacking.
I humbly offer a petition idea... 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. Text SIGN PBXQXY to 50409 resist.bot/petitions/PB...
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!
... "the decent people of GOP ..." 😆😂🤣
It took years, but the GOP finally has shown its true colors and they are not blue, red and white anymore.
If only…too bad non of them has a spine anymore
🎶“If they only had a”… backbone!
If only some would vote against nominees and show resistance is possible
DO something? She can't even say HIS NAME in the post!
Impeach 47th JD Vance and Mike Johnson. Problem solved. Sick of the words with no actions.
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 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Can we change it to Party of oligarch Putin, just so we can call them POOP?
So what are you going to do now that you are a big part that caused this shit show. Her words are meaningless!
amen. 🙄
I don’t know, it seems that you should’ve been sick to your stomach at least since the p—n ally took office.
Re-upping this… bsky.app/profile/char...
Someone should tell her how she voted.
Exactly!
What needs to be reiterated is that trump does not stand for “American values”, or democracy. He may never have. And that’s on the American voters.
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.
Exactly
DO SOMETHING LISA!! TELL YOUR FRIENDS & STOP HIM!! ONLY GET WORSE
The US started the war in the Ukraine in 2014 when the CIA staged a nazi coup to take control of that country and instal a puppet dictator, eventually succeeded by Zelenski. The CIA used a Gladio sleeper cell, mercenaries from ISIS, and the organisation previously known as "Blackwater."
So passive. The wording. I can’t.
Vote for more GOP people and projects, Lisa. That'll fix it.
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
Took her long enough.
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
Someone needs to get her a gift certificate to Waffle House
Angry Texans push back against their Plano representative!!!
If she really cared, she would switch parties.
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 🤷♀️
She’s very concerned but will continue to support the administration and vote with her repugnant colleagues. Useless human being
They do if the Republicans grew a set of balls and told the pathetic POSER enough of your nonsense!!
We gave them the full deck. Very little they can do but speak out. Don’t forget Murkowski represents Alaska and is a Republican.
they voted to ban tiktok and trump overturned it.
Trump initiated wanting the ban or sell process in his first term.
She’s only one. Need more.
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!!!!!
Don't worry Senator he's planning to trade your state for St Petersburg tomorrow.
Yeah so get on it Susan!
This from someone who voted to install Tulsi Gabbard?
True. Be thankful that perhaps she reached a topping point - if only others do as well.
Right? FUCK HER. She’s as cowardly as all the others.
🎯
@lisamurkowski.bsky.social not doing anything but jibber jabber.
Why doesn’t she just switch parties or go independent and caucus with the not insane side?
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."
If only Republicans had the guts, the patriotism, the morals….
If only the men had her… well let’s just say guts to speak out.
It starts with a crack in the veneer.
Time for women to save the world!
No shit Lisa.
youtu.be/g6UxEWoJO-8?...
Really @lisamurkowski.bsky.social Nothing like waking up to GOP traitors that has been known by most people for years. This isn’t fresh hell.
Lisa Milquetoasty
Brilliant! She’s leader of all the other “milquetoastees” who sit there silently sopping up the lies being poured over them.
Agreed, brilliant!
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.
“Appears to be embracing Putin”? That bridge has been crossed forever. The US can no longer be trusted.
Cowards! All of them.
Murkowski can fuck right off. Loves to pretend she’s concerned but always caves and votes against holding them accountable. How many sexual predators did you vote to confirm, Lisa?
What does it take, Murkowski, to leave the Republican Conference? When will enough be enough, at long last?
If only Lisa would actually walk the walk…😩
