Lawrence: Trump's GSA Head Is An ‘Enemy Of The Voters’ | The Last Word | MSNBC
This woman’s name will never be forgotten by the families of the sick and dying. On their death bed her name will be called out.
@Gremlin Song no I said to educate yourself I will not do your research for you
You have access to the internet so don’t be coy and look it up yourself
and stop calling names it’s so childish act like an adult I’m so tired of people calling each other names I don’t resort to childish behavior and you shouldn’t either
@timandsue legere your mom didn’t mind it last night. Now that is childish. Like your response and Ilovedogs response. I give it to you that it could be a hard ask for me to expect a link to a video of Beijing Biden or article quoting ole Beijing; but when you reply with that kind of retort it means you came up empty on your search. That’s what took you so long to offer me such harsh rebuke of “look it up yourself” I mean, it would take an absolute moron to read where I first stated “google it” as not implying that I have already looked for one. My search was as fruitful as yours. But keep dodging though, it’s fun to see. Still waiting for that answer about Obama…
@Gremlin Song why do you ask others to do research for you especially that which only takes seconds on the net had to get the childishness in there again calling me names like stupid and moron does not bode well for me to take you seriously at this point I am questioning your actual age because of the framing of your comment I don’t believe you are an adult you reply as though you are on the playground so I will end this conversation as I prefer to speak with adults not children
@Gremlin Song OMG! The fact that “The Donald” has a Chinese bank account, which is operated by a communist government, and who authorized depositing some 10- 15 million dollars
@Scott Albright ah, the infamous Chinese bank account that was closed in 2015 before he ran for president? Where did you hear it was still being used, Leslie the pied piper here? Still waiting for an answer.
This woman deserves to become Trump’s 4th wife. …Perfect match !
I thought he would go after Megan Markels, they seems like a match. However I don’t think Melania is never going to step aside, Too much to lose.
@Jerome Lund or pretty or thin enough – she doesn’t fit the trophy wife description, requirement and image or up to its level.
Robin Ricks how is life in your bubble? Sooner or later you will realize that Biden has won.
Yeah they look like they both love kfc🤣
She counts as the 4th and 5th wives.
Emily Murphy should be charged with attempted murder
Negilent mass homicide.
Marie Paul
When Trump first entered the White House, he, with the help of Emily Murphy, reversed a decision that was made before trump became president to relocate the FBI building from its current location across the street from Trump’s Hotel in DC. Trump was concerned that the FBI building would be razed and a luxury hotel developed in that space which would compete with his hotel.
“Congressional Democrats today released materials on a Jan. 24, 2018, meeting at which Trump spoke directly with General Services Administrator Emily Murphy about abandoning the plan to relocate the FBI to a larger campus in a nearby suburb. Dems included a dated photo from the Oval Office in its newly released package of information.”

@Lana Kahl negligent*
@Jeyjanjay Olikok that was meaningful?😂😂😂😂
@Allen O’Keefe it was hyperbole. However, not too far from what should be a reality.
Emily Murphy in charge of GSA is a typical robotic perhaps even diehard republican federal employee.
Steve H.
She needs to do her job and stop messing around.
They don’t have any info to give cause they haven’t been working for we the people but for our enemies. That’s why they won’t transition they have NOTHING!!!
How TRUMP will cling to power by starting WAR with IRAN.

And apparently a trader to the people And quilty of premeditated mass neglect homicide
Emily Murphy is the enemy of the people. She’s killing Americans by not cooperating with the new president-elect’s people. She should be prosecuted for negligence and the deaths of Americans.
Ummmm, president elect isn’t even a thing. He has no power until sworn into office. You idiots are soo clueless. Stop watching the news. Hey, let’s just go along with every idiotic lie the tv tells us. Duhhhh
Why would anyone blame the leader of a country in which the virus didn’t originate? Why aren’t you blaming China? Should Obama and all of his administration be prosecuted for the deaths of Americans when they had the swine flu pandemic? If they do, he can be prosecuted now. Message your senators, let’s see how it plays out.
@Gremlin Song these morons are so caught up in TDS that they can’t even formulate a coherent thought. They just puke up whatever they hear on MSNBS
Thank you….. 👍
@Gremlin Song the news tells them it’s trumps fault, so the idiots think it’s trumps fault.
Emily Murphy must be held accountable for the murder of Americans.
I’m down if we can hold Hillary Clinton accountable for the Americans she got killed. Benghazi
@Thomas Kirklin the committee spent 17 months investigating Benghazi. Zip, zero, nada, indictments. Get over it. Trump admin: 215 indictments. Nixon: 74 indictments.
Remember Emily Murphy. Wherever she is employed next, boycott and protest her next employer until she is fired.
134 pinheads + 12 below who seem to be proud of it and counting. @Heather C That is because they (Creep dems,FBI, Hillary and facebook and Tech and MSNBC ) are 215 times pinheads.
Murphy should be arrested like her boss and charged with crimes against humanity.
@Scott Albright Thanks, Scott.
@Roman Ward Your ignorance is showing. Keep up, this has been disproven by the security agencies whose job it was to ensure a fair election. Stop spouting nonsense.
@Roman Ward give it up that’s not true.
She shouldn’t be allowed to get away with this.
Agreed. And I think it will happen
I bet she goes to church singing praises to God and praying Jesus too. Doesn’t matter if people die because she’s complicit to a lawless SOB.
@Maureen Perez true. So sick of the l lack of backbone. Who knew men were so weak when it comes to lining their pockets. EYES WIDE OPEN NOW
Men and women
The computer software and the illegal ballots gave more numbers to Biden , Not USA people!!!!
Now, even more and more Biden supporters want to know the truth!!
Only fools are being fooled/brainwashed by Biden Team and 3B(Big media, Big tech and Big Money)!
This is not the matter of Biden or Trump!!!
This is a matter of crime or not!!!
@Liberty Freedom prove it
@Sergio Magana Do not worry!!!
The professionals will present the evidences in the court!.
Calm down and wait…..for the result…
Until then. noone is the next president-elect….
This is not the matter of Biden or Trump!!!
This is a matter of crime or not!!!
Now, even more and more Biden supporters want to know the truth too!!
Definitely they do not want the “Illegally elected president”????!!!!!
She’ll find it difficult to get a job if she’s under federal investiagtion
I hear Walmart is hiring.
She shouldn’t have a job
Mrs Murphy signals that ur-fascism has taken over the GOP. She is only one of the too many.

New evidence shows that the Dominion voting machines used
in 5 key states are fraudulent, they changed votes from Trump to
Biden. Wow!! this is BIG!! Now I understand why Trump won’t concede…
And Rudy his lawyer is not giving up after these big findings of fraud!
@Roman Ward What I can’t understand is why didn’t they repair the machines before the election if they knew there was a problem. Didn’t the machines change enough votes into the Republican column.
@Roman Ward is that sarcasm? Because it isn’t truth….so I’m thinking it must be sarcasm
Why does one person, Emily Murphy have So much power!? First thing Biden should do is change the transition laws.
My thought exactly
I believe he will try, but Republicunt politicians won’t vote it into law.
@Sandra Wade but when one Party has control of Congress and won’t block such things, then we end up where we are now. Sadly without oversight of one branch over the other you will get political appointments
@Sandra Wade exactly
@Sandra Wade Exactly!
Unbelieveable, a low level Govt employee can hold up a Presidential Transition – is America for real!!!!!
The Republicans don’t realize they created a monster, called Trump!
It was his Father Fred. Trump created a monster called the Republican Party.
Republicans know. They have know all along.
Its amazing how little “pro-life” republiklans actually care about life … 200 000 new Covid 19 cases every day , with 1 % death rate thats 2000 people .
Thats not even the worse part , its the fact that the spread is speeding up and before January USA will have one 9/11 every day , all thanks to republiklans .
and they let it suckle
Republicans know! They just greedy
She is just as dangerous as he is. Doesn’t she have any respect for human life.
Hopefully they can and will use legal means to hold her responsible for her actions.
She does not care about human life. She only cares about herself. Have you seen full figured body?
Only if it’s a fetus
Murphy needs to be locked up with trump. I’m so tired of this bs trump is doing. When will you lock him up instead of letting him slide. He should have been locked up. If he was any body else they would be in jail he should be too.
What planet are we on ….if we are in such a mess that one national election causes all the monsters to come out of the woodwork. It’s such chaos. Then …there’s the Trump family who can’t t seem to help Donald realize where he is now. Strange things continue happen. What a train wreck.
If people die because of Murphy, she should go to prison for murder.
In practice many people probably die because of her, but I don’t think it can be proven in court the way it has to be proven in murder or even manslaughter cases (but I’m not a lawyer). Anyway, it seems to me that there should be some legal punishment or a consequence, as what she’s doing is at the minimum very unethical.
manslaughter or negligent homicide will do nicely.
She is not just the Enemy of the Voters , she also an Enemy of the Humanity!
@LadyJAtheist that requires proving “proximate cause”. She’s probable too far removed in the chain of events to legally be declared the “proximate cause” for her “depraved indifference”.
How should we call Emily Murphy: The Bringer of Death, Traitor to the Constitution
Mrs. Eichmann
Murphy should be charged with manslaughter because of her sociopathic partisan stunt.
Emily Murphy needs to be held accountable personally if she does not allow transition.
@Michelangelo Buonarroti probly. They are prep life until the fetus is born. Then they don’t care
What she’s doing is clearly very wrong and inhumane. Is there no way at all to override her?
@Dwight Corbett so call her. I spoke to a human. Blow her phone up
@Lori Betti did u get threw to an actual person? I called the number that Lincoln project posted the other day and it’s automated u can’t talk to her. If u did get threw what’s the number you used so we can all call
Absofuckinglutely….can she be legally sued for dereliction of her duties?
Even Four Seasons Total Landscaping wouldn’t give this woman a job. Traitor.
So true 💯💯
