Susan Collins was at the center of a major bribery probe for steering millions in contracts to a company whose CEO illegally funneled thousands to her campaign. Then Trump took office and gutted the FBI and DOJ units investigating her. Is this what "being moderate" looks like?

I want my country back. By that, I mean a country where I would be confident that a thug who livestreamed himself stabbing an RNLI dingy on an active operation would a) Be universally condemned b) Be swiftly arrested, put on trial and if found guilty, face many years in jail. I miss that country.
