Senate Republicans are not remaining on the sidelines when it comes to Thursday's "guilty" verdict for former and potentially future President Donald Trump.

As the brief and direct letter reads:

The White House has made a mockery of the rule of law and fundamentally altered our politics in un-American ways. As a Senate Republican conference, we are unwilling to aid and abet this White House in its project to tear this country apart. To that end, we will not 1) allow any increase to non-security related funding for this administration, or any appropriations bill which funds partisan lawfare; 2) vote to confirm this administration's political and judicial appointees; and 3) allow expedited consideration and passage of Democrat legislation or authorities that are not directly related to the safety of the American people.

The letter was shared by Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT). "Strongly worded statements are not enough," he fittingly noted in an X post from his official account. "Those who turned our judicial system into a political cudgel must be held accountable." The post also "invite[d] all concerned Senators to join our stand."

Other signatories included Sens. JD Vance (R-OH), Tommy Tuberville (R-AL), Eric Schmitt (R-MO), Marsha Blackburn (R-TN), Rick Scott (R-FL) Roger Marshall (R-KS), and Marco Rubio (R-FL).
