Sen. Mike Lee of Utah didn’t agree at all with Sen. Lisa Murkowski’s statement made this week to reporters in Alaska, when she said Republicans are afraid of Elon Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency.
“I don’t know a single Republican senator who feels that way. Not even one,” Sen. Lee wrote on X.
Well, he does know one: Murkowski had told reporters that no one but her is speaking up because they’re all afraid of Musk.
“I get criticized for what I say, and then everybody else is like, ‘How come nobody else is saying anything?’ Well, figure it out, because they’re looking at how many things are being thrown at me, and it’s like, ‘maybe I should just duck and cover,’” Murkowski said. It’s why you’ve got everybody zip-lipped, not saying a word. Because they’re afraid they’re gonna be taken down, they’re gonna be primaried, they’re gonna be given names in the media. You know, we cannot be cowed into not speaking up,” she said.
Sen. Lee’s response to Murkowski’s statement was noticed by Elon Musk, who amplified the post by reposting it, and added two American flag emojis in his response to Lee, a signal that he aligned with Lee, not with Murkowski.
Maybe(?) // Most Likely(?) … She realizes the fact she deserves to be primaried.
I’ve read some of the comments and I just wanted to say thank you to my fellow Alaskans for having common sense, I know the right side is winning on every level, but it feels like the more that the one side wins the harder the other side pushes is there no end to the madness? Is it really gonna take a catastrophic global event for us to come together sad.
Yup.
Nepotism.
Classic RINO, NeoCon, UniParty swamp creature.
Corrupt.
Look at the Kenai river land deal.
She might try listening to her constituents.
I don’t think that is possible. It is all about her and getting attention. She does not belong in office.
She does not belong in the human race.
Typical politispeak. A lot of words spoken, but nothing of importance was said.
Wanna know how Trump is doing a good job? All the right people are panicking.
Good job Trump! Keep it up! Their beloved system of money laundering and self congratulating is coming down in real time and We The People are here for it!
Wooohooo!
See me! Look at me!
5 minutes of negatives is, I guess, one way to keep your face in the news.
Senator Lee, there are a whole bunch of Alaskan voters who are really tired of Murkowski’s antics.
Demagogues rely on emotional delivery as opposed to content because they need the passion that resides in negativity.
Let’s face it: Lisa has something to hide! How much money have you received from the government Lisa?
Musk as accomplished and exposed in 90 days or less, than what Murkowski knew and knows, of the corruption and waste that exist. Nothing hurts more than to have a “Wedgie”” given in public which is the case with Congress as a whole. They ALL must have some idea of this sorry mess.It took an outsider, Trump to bring it to this point.
It is a continued question to the depth and volume against this Musk success that Murkowski is screeching, much as the Democraps are in obvious fear of being exposed. Perhaps it is a bi-partisan collusion in that exposure. Only the “Shadow” and Murkowski can answer that worry.
Maybe Murkowski has good reason to be afraid as she may be hiding something? Likewise for any others as fearful as her. She has no basis for making such assumptions about anyone else. She does not seem stable and it sure seems time for voters to loudly and solidly retire her next election go-round.
I’ll regret appointing Lisa until the day I die. She has been a spoiled brat since the day she learned to say, “Daddy.”
The Good Senator Murkowski is making an embarrassment of our state, if you take the time to comment here make sure tou take the time to let the Good Senator know your thoughts by sending her a note.

Hubris run amuk. Murkowski has aligned with ‘the squad’ where theatrical ‘sress’ has replaced any form of productivity. Make a contribution to Alaska, after all that’s in your job description.
When your remarks are nonsensical and you know no one else speaks up in support of your position but you still believe you’re right it’s time to leave the party; you’ve had one too many.
Elimination of RCV may be the only way Alaskan voters can send Ms. Murkowski to the land of broken toys next election cycle.
Does she understand that the majority of.the country voted for Trump and DOGE? We approved it.
She’s not afraid of being primaried because she’s got it rigged with rank choice voting!
Based on what I have seen in recent weeks, operations at USAID, EPA and other agencies are a massive and undisguised money-laundering operations for the Left. Is Senator Murkowski really that blind? Probably not, but she is curiously invested in continuing these operations and protecting the Deep State. Are greedy billion-dollar NGOs really the “good guys” in your world, Senator? What is your definition of good government?
On a different topic, the Senator was obviously absent in law school for the lectures on Article 2 of the Constitution. Embarrassing.
Just another lame excuse on her part as to why she will be primaried. At least I hope she will be! And making herself out to be the ONLY brave one, what a joke! She is the weasel trying to stay on top of the fence. Unfortunately the joke is still on us for another 4 years, ugh!
Lisa lost any credibility she may have had by embracing TDS. She isn’t rational about anything any more. She was never great at representing us, but now she is just a liability. If she had any shame, she would resign. But, she’s not that cogent.
After hearing about Gates’ planted nanobots in COVID vaccines, I’m stunned that we have not heard a thing in regard to Musk’s brain chip company, Neuralink. Why are we defending Elon Musk? This guy wants a chip in all of our heads. I guess since Trump said he is ok, he is.
I love what Musk is currently doing… but I agree with your concern with the micro chip thing! I can honestly say though that I do not know enough about it to comment. … other than, as long as it isnt mandatory… I’m not sure I care.
whoa dude, keep your tinfoil hat on and stay in your mom’s basement.
you got the TDS & EMS bad, seek help!
DOGE and primary the little princess.
Like all Democrats, Lisa is scared and enraged that Elon is working for free, to uncover waste, fraud, and theft of our tax dollars.
What does that say about them, hmmm???
If only Lisa had a fraction of the sense & integrity of Mike Lee, Alaska would be sitting pretty indeed!
Lisa, it’s just not working anymore. Please leave. We are done with you.
Like Sourdough Sam used to say “ you need a prostitute and a politician for the same thing” !
Well Alaska how much longer are you keeping her in office. Been voting against her since Frank the bank exercised nepotism and gave her the job. Catch up people!
What a great time to be living. Watching these grifters being exposed is magnificent!!
Princess Pork gets more shrill by the day.
Sam Bankman Fried is her shining star. At least He believes in her to the tune of a $10,000 donation.
Maybe He will figure a way to get her over the hump next time around as well.
Do us all a favor and just leave, Lisa. Adios.
Speaking of corruption and money laundering, we have it right here in Alaska. Just look at all the so called non profits, and NGO’s we have operating in our state. And they are running by the same people making tax policies on the rest of us. Want to make big changes in Alaska politics? Cut off their cash flow by exposing these organizations
Murkowski seems to go against the majority of her constituents and the country. Sure looks like she got in on dark lefty money. Those trying to prevent exposure are hiding something. We are so lucky to have Musk. Trumps bigger picture is simple, make America great by cutting gov waste, lower taxes and raise tariffs to push manufacturing back to America.
I wish Mike Lee was our senator.
“You know, we cannot be cowed into not speaking up,” she said.”
I remember when she was a write-in candidate in 2010 and some people wasted their vote just to write in “MurCOWski” and mock her. Then a judge, on election day, decided the law didn’t need to be followed and that “voter intent” mattered, which clearly ruined the intent of these voters, btw. Nothing ever happened to the judge for this that I am aware of.
Definition of afraid is being backed up against the wall by Feinstein
Lisa, IT JUST AIN”T WORKING ANYMORE!!!!
Does she have Parkinson’s? She’s starting to get the shaky head. Watch her little tirade
You know what Lisa. it’s time for you to go. You have been a boil on Alaska’s Ass every since you were handed your job by your Dad. The People of Alaska Deserve WAY better than You.
Speak out Lisa let the ignorance fly? Go trump maga
As an Alaskan, I would BEG DOGE to please dig into her finances… she is as crooked as her father was. She is one of the reasons we need to have term limits. Thank you Elon Musk for doing such a great job!!!!
She has truly changed sides and is even taking their talking points for them. She has never really been a conservative and never will. She needs to go back to daddy’s coattails so he can find her work again as long as it isn’t in Alaska
You too would have been “primaried” long ago, Lisa, had you not stooped to restructuring our elections with RCV.
LM is best suited for anything but a US Senator! Too bad she doesn’t see that President Trump will be the best and most effective President since George Washington, but only if ‘We the People’ including office holders such as she have his back!
You and I, because LM isn’t, need to use our ‘Agency’ in supporting President Trump! Beyond voting, real US Constitution supporting people need to convince misguided souls like LM to see the light, alert and offer direction to our friends and peers to sources of critical information on current events like Must Read Alaska by SD and Restoring Liberty by JM are doing.
Real America’s Voice has several great segments such as the War Room with Steve Bannon, America’s Top Ten with Wayne Allyn Root, and more that are getting the truth out for us all to see!
I’m making donations to MRAk and Restoring Liberty today, this is another way to use my Agency!
Lisa WAS primaried out in 2016, but somehow managed to Dominion her way out of it…
Is Senator Murkowski the national spokesperson of ranked choice voting?
Interesting that her words are “primaried out”.
The fact is people will congregate and vote – ranked choice or otherwise.
And realistically- President Trumps endorsement is not a shoe in for elections across the U.S. including Senator Murkowski’s most recent re-election. So her argument falls flat about her Republican colleagues being zip-lipped.
In addition, she won as a write in after losing a primary before ranked choice was in place.
Nick Begich won in the 2nd bout against Mary Peltola in the ranked choice voting rules.
The problem I see with Senator Murkowski is she is a woman from a generation of feminists that fought hard battles for women’s rights. That’s great.
But I believe her ability to serve as a Senator has been diminished because she is crafting how her political legacy will be written.
She went to great lengths and was impassioned to be the “Republican” Senator claiming to be a bridge by working with the past administration.
The unfortunate thing is that she is as passionate to work against this administration- regardless if it benefits the constituents who elected her.
If she’s working this hard against the priorities of her constituents-that needs to be a serious discussion.
I am quite certain I am not saying anything groundbreaking here.
She is not a martyr.

Mike is absolutely correct, as Lisa
Murky is a Democrat, claiming to be a RINO, we need to replace this embarrassment.
I had a good laugh when I read Lisa’s remark! What a pompous thing to say!
Murcowski is the Democrats secret weapon, she never votes Republican. Alaska hates her but she is sneaky, using rank choice voting to save her position. Rank choice voting is a Democratic tactics to steal votes.
