"If we don’t get the majority," Platner said, "and things continue to get worse, I will promise you that I’m going to be arrested as a United States senator."
The comments resemble previous instances where Democratic politicians have expressed concerns that President Donald Trump would weaponize law enforcement against them.
"I mean, it sounds nuts, but I wouldn’t be surprised if this guy threw me in jail," Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., said in 2024. "He’s out of his mind. I mean, he did his whole first campaign around ‘lock her up.’ This is his motto."
During the event, Platner reiterated his plans to "shut the White House down," using the Senate’s investigatory powers to hinder the Trump administration.
"We haul everyone in the White House under subpoena, day in, day out, in front of Senate committees to answer questions about all the lawbreaking they’ve been doing," Platner said, adding that there's "a compelling case for the impeachment and removal of at least two" Supreme Court justices.
