Senator Patty Murray @murray.senate.gov · 07/10/2026
NEW: What comes after Trump and RFK Jr.? Public health has been decimated but what was there before wasn’t enough either. I'm launching the Public Health for America Working Group to build a public health system that can't be broken.

Over a dozen states have important voter registration deadlines today. Check your registration and make a plan to vote at IWillVote.com. Then ask friends and neighbors to do the same.

WARNING: The Ellison family is about to own CBS News AND CNN. A judge just cleared the deal. Closing: days away. When one family controls what tens of millions watch, democracy loses a watchdog. Independent media isn't a luxury. It's your last line of defense.

Pathological liars just can’t stop lying. Trump: “I’m the only president that donated his salary. They pay me $550,000 a year.” The presidential salary is $400,000. JFK and Hoover donated their salaries and didn’t rob the country blind.

I for one think it’s bad that the president can just say crazy stuff all day every day and 99% of it doesn’t make the news because we’ve normalized having an insane president

Reading has become an endangered species. Which is half the problem with American political life. Maybe more than half. If you can't read, you can't think. Then you can fall for anything. The idea, for instance, that the truth is fake news.

Jack Smith: "History teaches that the rule of law is rarely destroyed all at once. It's often weakened by attacks on the institutions and the public servants sworn to uphold it. Since January 2025, we have witnessed precisely such an effort."

When legacy media compare Orban's treatment of the press to Trump's, do they realize they're telling on themselves? Big corporate media folded. Independent media stood up there and is standing up here. Support Democracy Docket now. demdock.com/4w6emld

The response when progressive policies that help millions of people are proposed... "How will you pay for it?" The response when the richest 1% ask for tax cuts, or banks ask for bailouts, or defense contractors ask for more contracts... "How much do you need?" It doesn't have to be this way.

Donald Trump does not have the energy or intellect to address the looming threat of artificial intelligence. In July, I enacted the nation’s strongest framework for AI safety and accountability. It is time for Congress to do the same.

I know this won’t happen, but the entire WH press corps should walk out. Trump craves attention and is obsessed with his coverage. Not covering his Oval Office Lie Sessions would hurt him more than just about anything.

My dad is a Republican. He voted for Lindsey Graham and Fox News is his go-to channel. But he knows exactly who I am: someone who listens, works hard, and puts South Carolina first. That’s why he’s proud to stand with me — and I’m proud to have him in my corner.

Mike Johnson sending the House home to avoid a vote on Pete Hegseth’s impeachment is a cowardly disgrace…and another reminder why these anti-democratic, pro-war, pro-Trump, Epstein file coverup enablers and Republican failures need to be sent home permanently.

The next time you hear Republicans in Congress complaining about the national debt, remember that roughly 25% of it has been added during Trump's presidencies — largely thanks to his tax cuts for the rich. The notion that Republicans care about the debt is one of the biggest lies in politics.

I live in Missouri’s 6th Congressional district. Chris Stigall, the Republican who won the primary to be my next Congressman, has blocked me on social media. If Chris is scared of a retired teacher asking him questions, I think he might be a little too weak for the position in the first place.
