@haikubot Senator #ChrisMurphy also publicly advocates for real gun reform, but as a nation we've mostly elected non-leaders to the Senate hence #ChrisMurphy is hung out to dry surrounded by greedy and cowardly colleagues.

Tonight I sing an ode to Chris Murphy
For speaking up with such courage and furor
About the debt ceiling, and the Saudis too
And how the GOP's addicted to chaos through and through
From Ukraine to Trump’s golf courses, he doesn’t mince his words
And Jen Psaki’s ears are filled with his verbose
A fearless advocate for the people in this fight
Senator Chris Murphy--a true leader and a delight.

"If the court won’t act on its own, it may be left with no choice...

a proposal by Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) that would require the Judicial Conference of the United States, which supervises the lower federal courts, to create a code of conduct for the justices; the measure would also direct the court to appoint an ethics investigations counsel to examine potential violations."

@MusiqueNow Today still in 2023 the U.S. deserves more than one regular advocate for real gun reform in the U.S. Senate. My senators from AZ are generally mute and passive, and they put so-called "bipartisanship" with NRA Oiligarchs above loyalty to voters. They didn't even fight to keep #EthansLaw #SafeGunStorage in newest law. #Denver #Nashville #MontereyPark Thank You Senator #ChrisMurphy
