What better way to spent valuable time on a Sunday show a month before enormously consequential midterms than national political media demonstrating yet again how out of touch they are by continuing their relentless promotion of Emanuel’s presidential aspirations.

People in Oleshky have no food and are surviving on grass and weeds, a desperate measure that won't even be an option in the winter. Real pressure must be applied to Russia to allow people to evacuate!

Worth watching the whole eight minutes but the spiciest bit starts at 5:22 culminating in the key question her camp can't get their story straight about: "How did Susan Collins know that this guy made this [super PAC] donation thru a shell company that was supposed to be anonymous?" #MEpolitics

This is the right answer from Troy Jackson on this. The story coming out of Susan Collins and her team simply doesn't add up and anyone paying attention can see it. #MEpolitics
Troy Jackson tweet: Then why did Senator Collins want to personally call Martin Kao to thank him just seven days after his $150,000 secret donation was cashed?

Come up with better lies.

C-SPAN tweet: Sen. Susan Collins' (R-ME) campaign manager Steve Abbott on communications surrounding alleged campaign finance violations: "We're not the 1820 PAC...we do not communicate with the 1820 PAC..."

The fact that Trump, his party, and the Republican Congress are historically unpopular and yet we still can’t be sure Democrats will win in November tells you everything about how broken both our electoral system and our political system are.
