As one of the MANY women who visited Collins' Maine offices & begged her not to confirm Kavanaugh, I'm so grateful Troy Jackson is pushing her on this.

Troy Jackson: We're losing $3 billion in healthcare. We're losing SNAP benefits. We're losing heating assistance. Susan Collins could have stopped that if she really cared. But she doesn't. She does whatever Trump wants. I can't understand how anyone in their right mind can actually defend that vote

How do I know Hegseth’s order to deny access to bases to members of Congress is about a cover up, not about safety? Because I asked for a military briefing at the embassy as a substitute and was told the policy prohibited military leaders in the region from even talking to me.

We're losing our health care here in Maine so Susan Collins can give billionaires like Elon Musk more tax cuts. I support Medicare for All so people across the state have health care.

Troy Jackson: Eight years ago today, Maine women begged Susan Collins not to confirm Brett Kavanaugh. She did it anyway. He helped overturn Roe v. Wade. And today, she says she has no regrets. Would you trust her to pick the next Supreme Court justice?

*so important*: if you’re voting by mail, assume the USPS will delay because it’s its policy. You can: —put it in drop box —go to counter to watch them postmark in front of you —if you’re dropping it in a mailbox, do it VERY EARLY.

Women across Maine begged Susan Collins not to put Brett Kavanaugh on the Supreme Court because they knew Roe was at stake. She did it anyway. To this day, she says "I do not regret that vote." Well, we sure do.

Troy Jackson on the Iran War: "Sen. Collins voted for it 5 times before she started voting against it. By that time, we're already into it and we're in another forever war that you just heard her say, it's not thought out, we don't know what we're doing, but she made sure that it happened."

You know how Republicans are “distancing themselves” from Trump? They’re not distancing themselves from his money—which is behind pretty much every attack ad you’re seeing right now. They can pretend they’re not, but the funding— and every vote they’ve ever taken – – tells a different story.

The president of the United States says that "the New York Times, and many other Artificial Media Outlets, should be arrested" for denying that the arena in which he spoke had empty seats. It's really bad! www.mediamatters.org/donald-trump...
The Ohio Arena was already full to the brim — And yet these people were still trying to get in. The New York Times said, “There were empty seats” when, in fact, there were none, and thousands of people had to be turned away. The New York Times, and many other Artificial Media Outlets, should be arrested for their dishonesty and disservice to our Country. When Bernie Sanders has 500 to 1,000 people, they make it sound like it’s the biggest event that ever took place. When PRESIDENT DONALD J.
