NYT has now independently corroborated all the major allegations against Susan Collins in the ProPublica report, including that investigators were prepared to move against her and then Trump intervened to shut it down. This put Trump in a position of exceptional and extortionate leverage over her.

The inquiry was closed last year because senior bureau officials questioned the veracity of a campaign donor’s account, according to current and former officials.

As I've been saying, impeachment and removal will ultimately have to happen, and enough Republicans will ultimately be forced to support it. But if Democrats fear talking about it now, they will make the path more difficult, delay the ultimate outcome, and prolong the damage.
David Shuster: GOP operatives say the Trump- Iran deal is so abhorrent that some GOP Senators are talking of the Trump impeachment coming after Dems take Congress in midterms…and the expectation some GOP Senators will support Trump’s conviction/removal. The GOP Senate anger at DJT is intense

Trump's DOJ is arguing that Elon Musk’s xAI has the right to run dozens of polluting gas-burning turbines in Mississippi despite not having permits. The reason? National security. The military is reportedly using a version of Grok to attack Iran. See what $300M in election spending gets you?
