Take a moment to watch this. So grateful to @markbardenSHP, @kristinsong3 and all the advocates and survivors who continue to speak out. We will pass Ethan's Law. We will expand background checks. We will fund community violence intervention programs. We won't rest until we do. — PolitiTweet.org

This is the right call. The Afghan people are starving, and while blame lies with the Taliban, as a moral and just nation we should not stand by and let people die. More is necessary, but this is a good step. — PolitiTweet.org

I’m sure it has nothing to do with the pending Russian invasion or U.S. diplomacy. — PolitiTweet.org

FYI the fight isn’t over “Russia sanctions”. It’s about Trump Republicans’ belief that we should sanction GERMANS. And why do that when the new German government just took our side on the pipeline? https://t.co/R7TRJg20Fb — PolitiTweet.org

Chris Murphy @ChrisMurphyCT

5/ Passing the bill would also reward Republicans' year long blockade of State Department nominees and encourage more hostage taking. That's terrible for the U.S. Senate and U.S. security and and extra reason for the Senate to reject the bill this week. — PolitiTweet.org

Chris Murphy @ChrisMurphyCT

4/ Plus, the bill wouldn't have any impact on the pipeline. Why? BECASUE IT'S ALREADY BUILT (95% of it was built when Trump was President btw). The Cruz bill sanctions can't stop the gas from flowing. But Germany can. So why break with Germany now? — PolitiTweet.org

Chris Murphy @ChrisMurphyCT

3/ The impact of the Cruz bill would be to divide the U.S. from Germany right at the moment we need Germany to be leading the readying of U.S./Europe sanctions on Russia that will deter them from invading Ukraine. The bill's passage would be a gift to Russia. — PolitiTweet.org

Chris Murphy @ChrisMurphyCT

2/ The new German government has taken a new position on the pipeline. They have stopped it indefinitely, so why on earth would we pass a stale bill that applies sanctions on Germany for a policy they no longer hold? Makes no sense. — PolitiTweet.org

Chris Murphy @ChrisMurphyCT

1/ This week, the Senate will vote on @SenTedCruz's Nordstream pipeline bill, which would divide the U.S. from Europe right in the middle of the Ukraine/Russia crisis. It's consistent with the GOP approach to foreign policy under Biden. They root for failure to hurt Biden. — PolitiTweet.org

Thinking of you today, friend. Nobody in my life is stronger or more courageous than you. We have so many victories ahead of us. https://t.co/zE99qCmS67 — PolitiTweet.org

Chris Murphy @ChrisMurphyCT

Correct. And even with additional U.S. troops being sent after Russia's 2013 Ukraine invasion, we are still at 20% our Cold War troop numbers in Europe. Putin is seeing a threat from U.S. deployments that simply doesn't exist. — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks to the team at Danbury Hospital for hosting me today. Their hospital system has 800+ staff out with COVID right now. While the COVID patient surge is real, they only have 3 in ICU care now, which is positive. https://t.co/LPmFRK0C2e — PolitiTweet.org

The scariest thing about this is it’s now 100% clear that you can’t win the Republican nomination for President if you oppose political violence. — PolitiTweet.org

Chris Murphy @ChrisMurphyCT

My complaint on the headline aside, it’s a good piece by @joshrogin on how our nation’s security is compromised by this blockade on nominees. — PolitiTweet.org

Chris Murphy @ChrisMurphyCT

I know writers don’t control headlines. But it’s not “congressional dysfunction” that is stalling nominees. It’s two Senate Republicans grinding the nomination process to a halt to advance their presidential candidacies. Headlines should be clear who the actual problem is. — PolitiTweet.org

4/ This moment requires unity of purpose amongst the democracies of the world. Not just the U.S. and Europe, but democracies in Asia, Africa and the rest of the western hemisphere. We must be together in our effort to oppose Russia's attempts to smash international law. — PolitiTweet.org
