Just before the May Day protests schedule for Thursday, Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski took to the statewide airwaves to encourage Alaskans to protest President Donald Trump.
On Alaska Public Radio’s “Talk of Alaska,” she praised the 50501 group that has been organizing regular resistance activities against Trump since Inauguration Day, Jan. 20. The group has been active in all 50 states, including Alaska.
Murkowski spent an hour on the show, with much of her time focused on criticizing the Trump Administration. She was speaking to her base of Democrats, but over 54.5% of Alaska voters cast their ballots for Trump, so she was speaking to the resistance. Murkowski found not one good thing to say about the president.
May Day protests will take place on May 1. It’s the socialist holiday that is being repurposed into another “never Trump” day for Democrats. Big protests are expected across Alaska and the nation.
“I think that type of engagement is important and people shouldn’t feel discouraged because, ‘well, I haven’t seen anything change since the last week that I went to go protest.’ Keep the engagement up,” she told the listening audience.
Earlier this month, she told nonprofit leaders in Anchorage that “We are all afraid,” of President Trump and even she fears speaking out against him.
Murkowski is increasing her profile as the leader of the opposition to Trump, along with Sen. Bernie Sanders. She has a memoir coming out in June about her life as a politician, and all publicity is good publicity for sales as she nears her book launch.
I will not protest Trump..He is “cleaning up the garbage” that you, and all your Democrat co-harts, has produced over the years. All the bribs, underhanded sneaky things you have “sided” with and You definitely NEED to change your “Republican” Label and join the Democrats, whom you have joined and have supported the last 10-15 yrs which is no longer Republican values.
I’ve said it repeatedly in the past: Murkowski wants attention. By doing this she gets it from across the nation. Somehow she has to be relevant and finding that she hasn’t been, Lisa has been craving a way to mean something. This, like all of her political career, will be irrelevant.
Good Lord I am so over this obviously CORRUPT woman she’s out of her mind! Seriously? She’s urging people to protest the ONLY person (POTUS) that is actually helping the American people. She’s a snake, a liar and the only ones voting for her are the ones like her with TDS that love FRAUD.
She no longer represents Alaska. She represents the LEFT.
Well said Daisy Mae, well said!
Her soul is as gray as her hair would be if she didn’t dye it. Deception is in her head and her heart.
She conspired with China and other foreign countries to bring in bugs to destroy the spruce population.
I could not agree more. She is an embarrassment. Desperately needs to retire.
Elizabeth, Princess Lisa is merely the symptom, not the cause.
The REAL embarrassment is all those radical leftists (contemptible Left Coast carpetbaggers, many of them) who dare call themselves “Alaskans” who keep voting for her.
I could not have said it better, Daisy Mae. Princess Lisa must be suffering from a terrible disease of the mind, not just TDS, but something that affects her mental health too.
Did she have positive solutions to the fact that the USA borrows 3 BILLION DOLLARS A DAY to pay interest on our debt?
A book of empty pages.
Is she going to pony up and be a leader and protest on the streets or is she content to cajole her psychophant bootlickers from the safety of her closet? Would make for some inspiring photo ops for her next campaign, no?
That’s funny Lisa thinks we listen to her Biden train of thought, GO AWAY!
Time to bring the fight to her home the people of Alaska have voted in a legal vote,
At the last “Day of Rage” protest, I protested against the Trump haters. 🙂
Lisa is a very bitter old woman, she’s becoming our new Hillary. She’s especially sour now that her Uncle Joe is tucked away and can no longer send her millions. Calling for organized protests?? Lis,a this sounds very insurrectiony!
Is it too late to cancel her? Really out there, maybe a psych eval is warranted!
Let me get this straight: Lisa wants us to protest the guy that’s taking the federal boot off the necks of Alaskans so they can make money and live in Alaska? She wants us to protest the guy who closed the border and is getting illegal criminals out of our country? She wants us to protest the guy who is bringing down inflation and bringing back US jobs? She wants us to protest the guy who wants to keep women and girls safe while playing in their own sport and being in their own spaces?
Lisa, why are you afraid? Because you know most Alaskans voted for Trump and are not going to vote for you?
My sign will be” 4ever Trump.”it will be madness.
Our unhappy U.S. senator has now wholly passed over to the dark side. For my part, I have protested by letter to HER, and have urged her to resign forthwith because she is no longer an effective representative of the majority of Alaskans to the Trump administration.
Happily for us, our other senator has the ear of the president. Happily, too, Donald Trump has been acting with dispatch to reverse the most ridiculous and damaging policies of the pathetic Slow Joe presidency. Alaska and the USA are now better poised to prosper than at any time since the 1980s. Hurrah!
Where was all this advocacy for protest when Biden was stretching immigration laws to admit 15-20 million ineligible aliens and enrolling them in government programs to feed, house in expensive hotels, and fly around the country? I haven’t heard her voice any concern about that, the crime they have caused, the over burdened hospitals or crowded schools which had to spend their budgets to accommodate special health and language needs. She ignored that massive impact to government costs and now pretends to care about the US government workers being laid off and the government services being unfunded as a consequence of the financial irresponsibility of the last admin.
The only reason she should fear Trump is because she has been enriching herself on the backs of Alaskans, period.
Join a May Day protest against a legally elected president? What happened to respecting elections?
How very Communist of you, Princess.
Your true colors are finally showing.
Do you want reeducation camps or gulags for the people who don’t approve of your vision?
Can’t help but wonder if the PM radio host who shilled for her protection program (RCV) is happy with his result.
And I urge all Alaskans to spit on and repudiate the traitorous, un-American, un-Alaskan globalist RINO who is the contemptible and corrupt Lisa Murkowski.
Lisa sent us money (from her trust fund) so that we could buy new wheel chairs and walkers just to attend her Trump protest. She even said she would buy our ferry tickets to Juneau. But what about Frankie’s depends? She’s forgetting. And where would we stay once in Juneau? Pretty sure that Dunleavy doesn’t want us around the Governor’s Mansion.
Yes. I can’t leave Wrangell without at least two boxes of depends. I like the same brand that Joe Biden uses. But Lisa really is a tight wad with her own trust funds. She hasn’t organized a Trump protest in Wrangell yet, which would be ideal for Nancy and I. Then we wouldn’t have to buy ferry tickets to Juneau, or hotel costs either. But our new wheel chairs are working great.
Could she detail exactly what she is protesting?
Murkowski makes me physically sick
President Trump is ruining her National Park
Where is the Alaska Republican Party with all of this?
They kicked her out of the party several years ago.
Exactly
Taxpayer is right. Murkowski is going full steam ahead in criticizing Trump in every venue she can. Pathological TDS. Perhaps she is also having ‘career angst’ realizing she has done little to nothing meaningful for Alaskans since papa appointed her. She may still think that she has voting power in a narrowly divided Senate. That has changed since the last election with more Republican senators being added. Now, nobody has to care what Murkowski says or thinks about anything.
Trump is making the LNG Gas pipeline a reality which is critical for Alaska’s future- like TAPS was. Dan Sullivan and Nick Begich both enthusiastically support this project. Instead, Murkowski is mired in the ‘tar pit’ of her ‘pathological TDS’ world view. This greatly hurts Alaskans who yearn for a better state economy that this Trump administration offers.
Murkowski is out of touch and extraordinarily mediocre. We can do much better.
Plain and simple, Murkowski is a sore loser! Suzanne, please stop giving Murkowski any attention.
Well I know one book I won’t be buying.
What a hilarious comedy we all live in. Crony politicians who are in office longer than I have been alive, created all the problems we are in as a nation have the gall to promote protests against those who have come in to finally clean up the mess.
You can hear it from this picture. “Orange man is the villain! No, I’m not the villain, don’t look at me, look at him!” She shrieks.
The tired old bat needs to go.
Trump 2028
MAGA-4-LIFE my neigbors!
May Day protests will take place on May 1. I say Alaskans show up with American flags, beer, rock music, and have a party! Show everyone that we are proud to have voted for Trump and support him. Also, sign a petition to recall Princess and get a good candidate in there.
Alaska will never be a liberal state no matter how bad Anchorage goes down.
She is a product of a weak, spineless unethical Alaskan GOP. She’s trying to sell herself as a middle of the road politician, when in fact she is a Trump hater, trying to enhance herself to sell a book.
Lisa needs to go away and quit living off the taxpayers teet while ignoring the majority of Alaskans wishes. Horrible representation for Alaskans.
Lisa Murkowski is persona non grata in my house. 😡
If we have her Committed to a Mental Institution we could get a new Replacement for her. She is about 75% ready to go.If the Big Protest doesn’t draw a crowd, it might be enough to BLOW HER MIND. Tomorrow would be a good day to have popcorn and MRAK.
Better idea: how about we all protest Lisa?
Oh, and by the way, when are Alaska Republicans going to censure Lisa for her Trump Derangement Syndrome?
Speaking as a foreigner looking into Alaskan politics, why cannot the Republican Committee vote collectively there in Alaska to expel her membership?
just wait. Give it about a month and Trump will call her out personally and she will be the embarrassment of Alaska.
What do you expect from this DEI/ nepo-baby hire?
Competence?
You stink Frank …. just sayin.
