Murphy: This Corruption Has No Precedent in American History - Senator Chris Murphy
WASHINGTON—U.S. Senator Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) on Monday spoke on the U.S. Senate floor to call on his Senate colleagues to stand up to Trump’s brazen corruption of U.S. foreign policy.
Murphy will force a vote as early as this week on two joint resolutions of disapproval to block multi-billion dollar weapons sales to Qatar and the UAE after Trump demanded billions of dollars in luxury gifts and business deals from the two countries, including a $400 million dollar luxury plane that he intends to keep for personal use. - 06/09/2025.
