Senator Chris Murphy Says Trump’s Plan to ‘Cripple Our Democracy’ Underway

Democratic Sen. Chris Murphy (Conn.) said President-elect Trump’s plan to “cripple our democracy” is already underway.

In a lengthy post thread on social platform X on Tuesday, Murphy argued that it’s “happening right in front of our eyes” and has “accelerated rapidly” over the last 24 hours.

“Can I take a minute to connect the dots – on how Trump is putting into action a plan to cripple our democracy in a way we may never recover from?” Murphy said.

The senator was responding to a post from the Committee on House Administration’s Oversight Subcommittee, which detailed a GOP-led reportthat recommended a criminal investigation into former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.), who sat on the House panel on the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol attack.
