Chris Murphy

U.S. Senator from Connecticut.
He's just lost it. Now saying Rob and Michele Reiner caused their own murder because they didn't support him.

So sick.

This is so vile and so un-American.

And calling our founder fathers - who would cringe at this kind of bigoted zealotry - "pearl clutchers" is a twist.

13 years since that unspeakable day in Sandy Hook. 13 years of growing a movement to make sure kids feel safe everywhere. 13 years of heroes living with pain and grief yet still speaking truth to power.

He's feeble, working only a few hours a day, more erratic than ever, and his base is starting to figure it all out.

"Many voters who spoke with CNN [about their opposition to Trump's map] said they did not want to be named because they feared being vocal about the issue could also subject them to threats."

Remember, the threat of violence is key to Trump's power.

Republicans in the Indiana state Senate could give President Donald Trump a major political black eye this week — and the conservative voters who elected them say they don’t mind.

This is the most corrupt White House in the history of the country.

We have 24 hours before the Senate vote to stop the January premium increases - $6,200 annual increase for the average Connecticut family on an ACA plan.

Republicans can still choose to do the right thing and vote with us.

This is important. Especially that part about COSTS GOING UP BECAUSE TRUMP IS MAKING THEM GO UP NOT BECAUSE OF NATURAL ECONOMIC FACTORS.
December 10, 2025 at 6:29 PM
Your donors and voters aren't motivated because they supported a feeble, aging con man for President who pretended he cared about them and high costs and then when he won turned the White House in a 24/7 grift machine to enrich himself, his family and his friends.

I need you to listen to and share this story - of how Trump is preparing to abandon Ukraine in exchange for Russian money for his billionaire friends.

It could be the greatest corruption of American foreign policy in our history. Russia gets Ukraine. Trump's friends get rich.

Neither Netflix nor the Paramount/Trump/Saudi Arabia group should own Warner Bros. Both deals are absurd - terrible for consumers and democracy.

This is a story about corruption - Trump using government power to screw consumers and gain control of the media. A red alert moment.

It’s important to remember there are two scandals here:

1. The Administration has likely committed war crimes.

2. But the entire operation - which now includes two dozen attacks - is illegal. In our democracy, the President CANNOT wage war without the consent of the people.
BERMAN: Did you see any evidence of them trying to use a radio in the video you saw?

TOM COTTON: Well I saw lots of evidence of them standing on the boat that had been capsized

BERMAN: That wasn't my question. Did you see any evidence?

COTTON: No, I didn't

What we are watching - as U.S. citizens are dragged out of cars and illegal war is waged in the Caribbean - is the corruption of the most sacred power we give the President - the power of violence.

We are no longer a democracy if the regime can use violence without restraint.
December 5, 2025 at 9:34 PM
No one in America has done more to incite political violence than Donald Trump. And it’s not close.

During interviews with the FBI, the suspect arrested in the pipe bomb probe told investigators that he believed the 2020 election was stolen, people briefed on the matter said.

This is totalitarianism. Not rule of law democracy. And everyone who excused thus is potentially signing this nation’s death warrant.
December 5, 2025 at 4:57 PM
The pardons Trump is handing out are a huge, growing scandal that not enough people are talking about. This is a money making operation - for for Trump, his family, his crypto pals, and the Trump-affiliated lobbyists and grifters who the pardon seekers pay.

Leslie told her story about how the Affordable Care Act saved her and her family, and how devastating it will be if Republicans increase her premiums in January just because they want a big tax cut for their billionaire donors.

An update on the fight over health insurance premiums:

Republicans have basically stopped negotiating. Trump is more focused on his ballroom than these cost hikes.

Later this month, Senate Democrats will force a vote on this - one last chance for GOP to do the right thing.

Pinning the blame on Admiral Bradley - when Hegseth gave the order to kill everyone - is a gross abdication of leadership. He's not qualified to serve as Secretary of Defense.
December 3, 2025 at 3:39 PM
Such a national embarrassment.
December 2, 2025 at 3:51 PM
Pete Hegseth needs to resign or be fired. Now. He’s a walking, talking national security embarrassment.

The disastrous and illegal Venezuela strikes - and his refusal to accept responsibility - should be the last straw.
December 2, 2025 at 3:37 PM
It's the opposite of "the buck stops here". He is selling out Admiral Bradley and sending chills down the spines of his chain of command, who now know their boss will sell them out if he is taking heat. A case study in how not to lead.

This is a must read. The most in depth understanding of how corrupt our foreign policy has become. Trump and Witkoff (Rubio totally sidelined) are proposing to sell out Ukraine in exchange for Russian deals for their billionaire crowd.

Not about peace. Just about profit.

The Kremlin pitched the White House on peace through business. To Europe’s dismay, the president and his envoy are on board.

If you want to know why Hegseth is panicking about reminders that there is accountably for giving or carrying out illegal orders, it’s likely because he knows he has given illegal orders to murder people.
Hegseth order on first Caribbean boat strike, officials say: Kill them all
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth issued a verbal order to kill all crew members in the Sept. 2 strike on a suspected drug boat. Navy SEALs fired a second missile.
