11/ Even Navatek’s executives were surprised at how far their money went in D.C. “It was eye-opening for me, frankly. ‘Oh my God, all of it is for sale. It’s all for sale,’” former executive Eric Schiff said.

Sen. Susan Collins helped steer millions in federal defense contracts to Navatek, whose CEO illegally funneled thousands of dollars to her campaign. The FBI sought to launch a probe and was eyeing Collins and other lawmakers. Then Trump gutted the unit in charge. THREAD 🧵

Wow this is damming stuff. Collins took donations in exchange for steering taxpayer dollars to bogus navy contracts. Seems like textbook corruption. And then Trump killed the investigation. #mepolitics www.propublica.org/article/fbi-...

Susan Collins voted to confirm Brett Kavanaugh, and she still says she doesn’t regret it. That vote helped overturn Roe v. Wade and strip away abortion rights for millions of women. Mainers should judge Susan Collins by her record — and that record has hurt women and families across our state.

Rural Mainers have more than just Republicans to blame for our hardships. Both parties had a hand in selling out our industrial base and offshoring family-supporting jobs. Bad trade deals devastated my hometown of Allagash. Chances are, it’s the same story in your neck of the woods. #mepolitics

But I think we need to step back from this mindset that only cares about the end result and abhors the seemingly “wasted” time that was also needed to get there. It’s an entire economy of “now draw the rest of the fucking owl” but everybody is drawing and trying to sell the same owl picture

This quote from Apollo 14 astronaut Edgar Mitchell has been in my head the last few days
You develop an instant global consciousness, a people orientation, an intense dissatisfaction with the state of the world, and a compulsion to do something about it. From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, ‘Look at that, you son of a bitch

All of this is fucking senseless. Minnesota did not have an immigration problem. Trump sent his Nazi thugs here because he's racist against Somali people and to own libs like Tim Walz. Now two Minnesotans are dead and Minneapolis is on the verge of going up in flames. None. Of. This. Was. Necessary.
