Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) came under fire on Saturday after she complained about the Trump administration's health moves, which she had earlier voted to affirm. Murkowski made waves over the weekend when she declared "politics" was taking over policy at Trump's Center for Disease Control.

"The firing of CDC Director Susan Monarez just a month after her confirmation, along with the departure of other high-level disease experts the day after her termination, raises considerable questions about what is happening within the agency," she wrote on X. "Americans must be able to fully trust that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention rigorously adheres to science-based and data-driven principles when issuing policy directives."

The outrage came for Murkowski instantly.

Republicans against Trump said, "You knew he’s an anti-vaxxer crank and still voted for him. This is on you." In a separate post, the group added, "Reminder: Murkowski voted to confirm RFK Jr." Marcus Jackson, an engineer, wrote, "You voted for this idiotic government. Resign already."
