ProPublica dropped the first story in a new series on corruption in Congress, and it starts with Sen. Susan Collins. A defense contractor illegally funneled $150,000 to a pro-Collins PAC. The company’s CEO later pleaded guilty to unlawful campaign contributions.

BREAKING: In a win for Alabama voters, a federal court blocked the state from enacting its 2023 congressional map, which would have diluted the voting power of Black Alabamians, from being used in the 2026 midterms. The ruling will likely be appealed directly to the Supreme Court.
