Don't mess with the Murkowski!

Oh yeah, you're going down.

The Senate blocked President Trump from being able to make recess appointments on Thursday as lawmakers leave Washington for their August break. 

Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska), doing wrap up for the entire Senate, locked in nine "pro-forma" sessions — brief meetings that normally last roughly a minute. 

The move, which requires the agreement of every senator, means the Senate will be in session every three business days throughout the August recess. 

As the article points out this is not a new tactic for the Senate, they have done this before.

However typically it is Senators from one party blocking the president from another party, NOT blocking one of their own.

What Lisa Murkowski is doing is straight up gangster, and since she apparently has the support of every single Senator clearly she is leading a revolt to stop Donald Trump in his tracks.

Our Senator sat down with CNN to explain why she was not intimidated by Donald Trump: 

“You want to vote to do the right thing. And so worrying about the consequences, are you fearful of repercussion from your party? A tweet from the President? A backlash from your leadership? I don’t believe that we should be motivated or discouraged from taking the positions that are important to the people that we represent in our respective states,” Murkowski said.

As I pointed out before, Trump did NOT know who he was messing with when he tried to start some shit with Murkowski.

But I bet he knows now.
