Sen. Lisa Murkowski delivered a scorching rebuke Saturday of President Donald Trump’s explosive exchange with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, a rare voice of Republican dissent as party members lined up in support of the president’s increasingly combative relationship with Ukraine.

Almost would make it worth it for the Russians to take back Alaska to get rid of her.

If they truly were our allies it wouldn’t always just be them asking and us giving.

Europe is like a child who only calls their old parents when they want something.

Hearing a lot of talk about our “allies” lately, “allies” who depend on the United States to fund and provide for their defense and security so that they can offer their own citizens free healthcare.

Our allies are the same kind of people who latch onto an entertainer or athlete who hits the big bucks. Always hangin’ around.

Hey Lisa, one thing most Republicans would like is for you to walk away from your Senate seat. We like President Trump because he cares about America and Americans, unlike you.
