Records show that campus police officers informed Tompkins County prosecutors that they had conducted additional interviews beyond taking a statement from the woman who said she was raped.

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?

This seems like a pretty big deal: donors made illegal contributions to Susan Collins and then were awarded lucrative contracts after her office intervened with the Navy. An FBI investigation was dropped under Trump. www.propublica.org/article/fbi-...
To skirt campaign finance laws and conceal the source of the funds, Navatek planned to funnel the donation through a shell company. The CEO wanted assurance that Collins would know where
the money came from. Reed confirmed that she would, the executive said - and that Navatek would get its government contracts.
After the Corner Bakery meeting, Navatek's CEO, Martin Kao, sent an initial $150,000 to the Collins super PAC using the shell company. Two months later, he told Navatek executives that Collins committed to getting the company $32 million in naval contracts, according to an internal company email reviewed by ProPublica.

Susan Collins has had skeletons in her closet for a long time. Maybe journalists will finally start looking into them now that Propublica broke the story about her criminal bribery scandal with a defense contractor. It’s time to let the public know just how corrupt Collins is.

They’re asking a federal court to rule before November that armed ICE/federal agents cannot be deployed to polling places. Armed federal presence at elections is already barred by longstanding law; this suit is meant to head off the administration in advance.

Gloria Steinem pushed open doors not just for herself, but for literally millions of women behind her.

She wasn’t going to be an astronaut, but she made it possible for Sally Ride to be an astronaut. She wasn’t going to play college sports, but she stood behind the women in Congress who passed Title IX. And she wasn’t on the Supreme Court when Roe v. Wade was decided, but her voice and her activism was behind that advancement for women's rights. 

Gloria was, at heart, an optimist. Her activism was rooted in optimism, and that’s a moral choice she made every day. 

I want her voice to remain in our heads. It’s wonderful to do what you can to further your own future, to get the best education you can, and to pursue your dreams. But it’s even better to bring other people along with you.
