8 months agoPeople like #Murkowski could put an end to this, if they really wanted to do so.
They’re choosing their legacy:
(1) fear and cowardice,
or
(2) complicity with fascism
or
(3) courage and standing with freedom, rights and the rule of law.
It’s time to make a choice.

Trying to imagine any universe in which I would argue in defense of Lisa Murkowski, Gavin Newsome, JK Rowling, or Will Stancil. Or one in which I'd argue that concentration camps are a distraction. There really are *all* kinds in the world.

Don’t feel sorry for Lisa Murkowski. She helped create the leopard about to eat her face.

Murkowski doesn't seem to realize that her job is to represent the people in her district, not to cower in fear of speaking the truth.
She's not the only one, and therein lies the problem.

And Lisa Murkowski is afraid? How does she think the rest of us feel, with representatives who are too chickenshit to do what they were elected to do.

🚨A U.S. born citizen was arrested in Florida for entering the state as an “unauthorized alien.” His mother and a community advocate showed his birth certificate during a hearing in Leon County. The judge said she had no authority to release him.

Murkowski is scared.
Maybe someone in the media can ask her why.
After all, her branch of government has plenty of tools at its disposal to put an end to this madness.

Murkowski bucks Trump — and makes the case for ranked-choice voting
#RankedChoiceVoting is a real way out if this mess. If we ever get to vote again.

Lisa Murkowski just admitted that she is leary of speaking out because she is afraid of retaliation. Oh my gawd Lisa. Then step aside and let some with a spine who is not obsessed with power and profit do the job of representing the people and speaking out to protect democracy.

Lisa Murkowski, the Republican senator from Alaska, said last week about Trump & the White House: “I’ll tell you, I’m oftentimes very anxious myself about using my voice, because retaliation is real.”

Can't be soon enough...maybe this time, Repub Senators (McConnell, Murkowski and Collins exempted) will take their confirmation duties seriously and not rubber stamp a walking and texting, enemy-abetting national security disaster to head our Dept of Defense.

BREAKING NEWS: The White House has begun the process of looking for a new secretary of defense, according to a U.S. official who was not authorized to speak publicly.

You've probably seen this video going around accusing Sen Murkowski of just staying silent, but she says in the video that she DOES use her voice, even while being afraid. Please watch the video. I'm not sure why so many people are misrepresenting what she said.

Echoes of Senator Murkowski's concerns.
How many red lines do we have to cross before people wake up and realize we are now in an authoritarian government and dictatorship?
Get out on the streets. May 1st and May 3rd (Saturday).

8 months agoI have seen a lot of people today condemning Senator Murkowski for admitting she is afraid of retaliation. Courage is not a lack of fear. It is being afraid and doing the right thing anyway. Murkowski is speaking out against deportations. Why condemn her? mustreadalaska.com/tough-….

Sounds like lots more Musk v Trumpers turmoil going on. The new IRS commissioner installed just Tuesday - a Hunter Biden obsessive popular in magaworld - was pushed out today after the Treasury Secretary, who oversees the IRS, complained that Musk appointed the guy without even asking him.

If Sen Murkowski is "afraid" of the base of her own party, then maybe she should leave that party? Frankly, wtf is the excuse for not leaving????

📌This clip of Lisa Murkowski is stunning. 📌There are two directions you can go, Ms. Murkowski: You can quit, and go quietly into the night, or you can do what you know is right, and lead from the front, providing safe haven for Americans who are under duress. But you can no longer feign ignorance.

It’s an odd time when telling the truth is risky. I tell the truth, and I understand Murkowski. I just came across a thread that makes me realize I won’t be the first one they come for. Don’t be a moron. If you are reading this, your style of vigilantism is as likely as not hurt the innocent.

Do we all agree Senator Murkowski is not as tall (figuratively speaking) as she used to be.
Come on Senator - stand up for the rights of your constituents.
Maybe changes affiliation to INDEPENDENT and caucus with Democrats. STOP THE SQUISHY.
