      Literally betrayed her country out of fear of Donald Trump. What’s wrong with this picture?

      A perfect example of why our system is flawed and needs to be fundamentally changed.

    6. Vadion on

      The *intended* optics here seem to be that they want it to pass, but they don’t want it to pass as-is, and a 4th voting no in the Senate would have killed it, so now they can ask the House to play catch with it until it gets to a point where everyone gets their cut.

      But the reality is likely just more sinister bullshit headline baiting and talking head fueling so that nobody knows up from down.

      She’s just worries everyone will hate her for being the deciding vote. That’s some real courage there Lisa 🙄

      She already got concessions added to the bill to ensure her constituents won’t feel the same pain the rest of us feel. Hawaii was included in these concessions to make the optics look better, but make no mistake, they were 100% targeted at her to ensure her vote. Hawaii’s senators voted „no,“ by the way.

      Translation – „I knew what I was voting was bad and still said yes to it“

      I really really hope the voters turn out for midterms if we are lucky enough to have midterms. Democrats needs to start blasting ads on Republicans who voted for this bill when shit hits the fan.

      I wonder how many of them are feeling buyer’s remorse right now? They certainly don’t want the blame for this and have already started pointing fingers.

      This isn’t hypocrisy, it’s just standard operating procedure for the modern GOP.
      * Vote „yes“ on a bill to satisfy the lobbyists and corporate donors who actually fund your campaign.
      * Immediately go to the press and tell the House to vote „no“ on the same bill to satisfy your actual voting base.
      The vote is for the money, the public statement is for the cable news soundbite. They get to tell the donor class they supported the bill, and they get to tell their voters they fought against it. They assume, usually correctly, that their voters will only pay attention to the performance and not the actual vote.

      She’s almost worse at this point than Trump and Musk. You both know they are trash, but they at least are trash that stand on their trash. This dumbass is a lesson in cowardice and weasel behavior.
       
      How has she not been voted out.

    19. TheInfiniteSlash on

      Well when the country goes down the drain because of this bill, reminder that she’s responsible for it.

      Susan Collins too, don’t let her fool you on this just because she voted no.

      Rand Paul is always going to be as fiscally conservative as he can be, and Tillis finally admitted this was going to put them on the wrong side of history. I don’t blame them for the big bad bill

      The public should constantly press her on her actions. At least ask her if she’s afraid of Trump.

    23. northwestsdimples on

      CNN confronted her in the hallway and she looks so fucking offended. It was hilarious.

    24. ChanceryTheRapper on

      >“My hope is that the House is gonna look at this and recognize that we’re not there yet,“

      So you voted for a bill that you think is „not there yet“. In fact, you were a vital vote in getting it passed, since it was 51-50 with the tie breaker, so if you had voted against it or even just abstained, it wouldn’t have gotten sent to the House, so you’re explaining how you sent a shitty bill over that shouldn’t be passed.

      Just proud of their incompetence, I guess.

    26. dchap1 on

      Yeah, none of us are buying that bullshit you’re serving Murkowski. You voted Yes when you had the chance to vote No. Your mark has gone down in history as a hateful, spiteful, selfish, greedy, heartless sellout. You will sit amongst the Nazi party in the pits of hell. Good luck with that.

    27. news_sponge on

      She’s trying to play both sides. There’s nothing that said this Bill had to pass this week. They had plenty of time to continue working on it. All she and Susan Collins had to do was show Trump that they are an important branch of government and use a few more weeks to get the bill like they want. Trump see light when he has no GOP house majority in 2026. Both of these women are disgusting.

      Honestly, the only person who is on the right and doesn’t fear Trump (as much as everyone else) is Elon. That sh*t stain is just one bender away from releasing the hounds on the orange turd.

      I despise musk but everyone’s afraid for their careers and money, and Elon (so far) appears to take a hit and still take swings. Yeah they might cancel his subsidies but I’m sure he could fight that in court for the remainder of the term.

      Just waiting for one hard “Calvin Klein” bender with attacks from Grimes and his other baby mamas and watch him go full nuclear.

      Probably the only time I’ll ever root for the guy.

      Name a better duo than Republicans and passing the responsibility on to someone else.

    31. ogreofnorth on

      They want this passed so bad by July 4th because Trump is worried what will happen when it is announced we are officially in a recession aka two quarters of contraction. We had one already -0.5%. And I am guessing there will be another announced in the coming weeks. This after 8 quarters of solid growth.

      The House should follow her instructions to improve the budget and remove the special carve outs she negotiated for the very special people of Alaska.

    35. ImTooSaxy on

      She said she was in fear of her life from Trump supporters. They created Frankenstein’s monster and now they’re helping it ransack the village where they don’t live.

      This is like Gollum saying „do not touch the ring“ but Gollum proceeds to wear it!

    37. AusToddles on

      Typical „someone needs to make a stand“ which really means „someone else“

    38. rastagrrl on

      Fuck her. Instead of passing the buck to the house why didn’t she simply grow a spine and VOTE NO.
