Chris Murphy: "We're gonna give Iran $14b to fund this war with the US? We're gonna give Russia billions to fund their war with Ukraine? We're literally putting money into the pockets of the nations we're fighting. We've never seen this level of incompetence in war-making in this country's history"

Its right on target of what a incompetent, unintelligent and facist regime would do..... they will selling weapons at 50% off very soon to both these countries to use against USA.

Hey Chris Murphy, that is how the Oligarchs get even more wealthy, & more powerful.... by giving them taxpayer's money, & keeping average people in a chronic state of hate, fear, pain & ignorance. The Oligarchs & their Puppet Politicians will keep it up as long as they have money & a heartbeat.

It's absolutely purposeful, to support and follow the directions of his handler Putin. When will the United States of America call this man the traitor he truly is.

I want to focus on "Urals oil" and the price. This is Russian oil that was capped at $60 a barrel, as of Friday over $110, and Iranian oil most likely at the same or higher. Notice Brent crude & gasoline did not drop. The lifting of sanctions did nothing except enrich opposing militaries. #WTF

Operation Epstein Fury! Stop the cover-up! Release the Trump-Epstein Files. Trump is a malignant narcissist and a pedophile who belongs in prison. Anyone in his Regime should go to prison with him. America must VOTE in the midterms!

At this point, it wouldn't surprise me if the 5,000 Marines he's sending to the Middle East are ordered to fight for Iran. So Fucking Stupid.

Hoping to have seen @chrismurphyct.bsky.social on Fox. I'll take him wherever I can get him but the only way to get the word out is for the strong communicators to blanket the airwaves and that is not happening in the right places. There should be pressers w/TSA agents.

The $14b figure seems off—wasn’t the Iran funds mostly sanctioned assets being unfrozen for humanitarian use, not direct aid? Also, Russian oil purchases are down 90% since 2022. The framing’s a bit misleading.

The US government is INSANE. Trump administration has completely disrupted America and all our good respected allies. It’s going to take generations for anyone outside of the USA to ever trust us again.

More like manipulating the market so the rich get richer. Which is why the rich bought him and placed him there. It's the entire point of this term. Our troops, innocent civilians and our democracy are just collateral damage. We don't hate them enough.

Vote AGAIN on war powers act! We don’t have the ability to fight the weapons that Ukraine faces all night & all day. Using a jack hammer when a hammer is needed will deplete our funds, is depleting our funds. Thus, 🇺🇸 cities can easily look like Ukraines. They fly under radar. 🤔

It's as though the Commander in Chief is just an operative. bsky.app/profile/atru...

So glad Senator Murphy is one of the most visible Senators. He is so superior to D leadership in articulating the insanity. Schumer is as described by Jin Stewart is a “flat tire”. Though I also think he is bought and paid for to pursue special interest agendas that are the D base opposes.

Let’s Speak Truth - We’ve never seen this before in any history… because people don’t fund their own demise — Trump was installed to destroy the US & so far he’s been doing a really bang up job!!!

"We've never seen this level of incompetence in war-making" Give it a minute. We're only 4 weeks in. We can get more incompetent.

And apparently 'WAR MAKING' is completely normalized as a perpetual accepted MONEY SUCKING lifestyle...you know...for 'democracy spreading' around the world! Guess what? I'm not being facetious. NOT one bit. 'We The People' have some serious thinking to do.

The US Constitution; Article 3, Section 3: Treason “levying war against the US or adhering to/aiding their enemies. ” It is adhering to/aiding their enemies. It is not incompetence it is treason. They know what they are doing is wrong and they do it anyway.

Funny fact: Trump was long times insulting the EU, because they continued to import Natural Gas from Russia, even after the Russians invaded Ukraine. Now he is endorsing the Hungarian President Orban, one of the very last EU members, which still buy Russian Natural Gas. 😏

In the past and in some countries right now, that level of incompetence (tinged with tangible corruption) would have resulted in arrest, impeachment, imprisonment whatever! Often, a bullet in the back of the head!

I have a guess. Why? Because Kushner and Witkoff spent the last year having meetings with Putin, Iran and Israel. Now it’s all happening. Make war, cause oil price to go up while demand is low makes margins high. Unlock billions held for sanctions. Give Trump/Kushner percentage cut of the $$. Duh:)

And it all had to be done before the midterms once Thune said he wouldn’t do nuclear option in Senate to pass the SAVE Act. They know they won’t have power afterwards. That’s why the timing seems so strange from a strategic war view. It’s not about winning any peace it’s about getting that sanction$

It is literally not incompetence. STILL, AFTER ALL THIS TIME, people imagine that the President is trying to govern the country well, and failing. Not true. He’s not trying to govern well. He’s trying to enrich himself. And it’s working. If you understand who he is, the behavior is all clear.

Why would he give American taxpayer dollars to Iran and Russia? Because he wants to save his own skin and the $ cost, and cost in military lives at risk, does not impact him. He’s happy to spend someone else’s money. Does not care about taxpayers, except to the extent that they vote for him.

His behavior is neither confusing nor incompetent. The problem is we are not accepting reality. We deny who he is. We WISH he were a president trying to do good. He is not. We should accept that. Systemically. Everyone needs to accept the truth that is right in front of their eyes.

We better not be blind. Complexities are deep…”opportunities” creep is real. bsky.app/profile/2spe...

I totally believe if USA or Israel attacks energy and water infrastructure, Russia will eventually provide Iran with a nuke….setting the stage for use of such on Ukraine. We must rid the world of these old madmen!!! www.cfr.org/articles/nuk...

People, please wake up. It is not incompetence. It is intentional. America is under attack from within. Using up our munitions, spread out our defensive resources, calls for civil war against opposition, alienating our allies, preparing concentration camps, taking over communication/media. WAKE UP!

Because EPSTEIN. We already asserted that fat orange creature will burn us all down to stop any further discussion, and it seems to be working. It also seems to have put a damper on the Dems, or am I missing those discussions?

Worse than incompetence, he is the epitome of ineptitude. That is an emphasis on a higher degree of clumsiness or unfitness to be president. It highlights a lack of adeptness and tendency toward awkward or bumbling actions and behavior. It describes him to a “T”!

Just our guy double downing. Two fronts. Count ‘em. Two. Jeez. Does the man get anything* right? *Other than educating us about any and all vulnerabilities when your president eschews acting in good faith.

Senator, I think you could have stopped at "We've never seen this level of incompetence." It's not just the war. It's everything about this administration. This is what historians will write about when covering this time in America.

Then fucking impeach or find lawyers to arrest him….do something! I do not see all house and senate dems on podcasts and TV DAILY!!!! How about TV ads??? Think out of the box!

We never seen this level of incompetence in government. Fighting and funding the enemy, that’s oxymoron. Instead of using money to build our country up they are using money to destroy other countries warmongers. Enemy number 1 of democracy. This is imperialism at work.

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social DON'T tell me you're helpless in the Senate..in Congress! DON'T tell me that republicans have you by the throat! DON'T tell me you can't stop trump until you have the majority! DON'T ask for our vote, if we the people can save ourselves!

Anyone else remember Trump & Vance criticising European nations for continuing to purchase Russian gas & oil, because it was crazy to fund your enemy? It was, which is why it’s stopped (less for Trump’s favoured European Russophiles). Seems it’s now US policy.

I think he's probably right, but like...it really feels like he's being reactionary to this administration in general and would probably be fine with our usual levels of incompetent war mongering. let's be clear, there's been *lots* of incompetence in our history.

Bro it's not incompetence they're literal traitors to the nation. They serve Russia, they serve Israel and they serve the Epstein elite. They do not represent us, they don't care about us or the country at all. They're dismantling this place for our enemies.

Almost as if Democrats are publicy describing the American war machine they've very much been a part of supporting that has been in place since WWII. Combined w the US petrodollar as world reserve currency = the US empire in a nutshell. All of these are currently dying of global rejection/hubris.

Correct! ‼️BE AFRAID ‼️ BE VERY AFRAID ‼️ The man is MAD! The man is MAD! The man is barking MAD! 🧨IMPEACH OR ENGAGE THE 25TH AMENDMENT! Also, don’t forget, every dance is to distract from the Epstein Files.

AMERICANS MUST BE REALLY DUMB … LISTEN TO THIS ? TRUMPERS WOULDN’T EVEN KNOW WHAT HE HAS DONE ….TREATS THEM LIKE “SUCKERS”!! MAYBE THEY ARE !!!!

Both of those countries are ruled by authoritarians, Trump loves authoritarians. He considers himself an Authoritarian ruler. And we're not doing shit to stop him and his regime, that's pretty sad.

Bessent was on this program just before Murphy and bad mouthed him beforehand. Telling. Thank you, Senator, for telling it like it is. Keep hammering on them, they can't take the heat.
