Trump’s handpicked senator, in August: “I’m not that informed on national security.” Trump’s handpicked senator, Sunday, to a pediatrician: “I’m just as qualified as you.” Trump didn’t pick her to think. He picked her to say yes. #VoteEarlyForNoKings www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/trump-does...

If Biden had been wearing some weird device, reporters would have asked questions about it. But the White House press corps fears Trump, so they don’t ask about this or the spackle covering his bruised hands.

Sick. The first U.S. president ever to TELL our adversaries to attack America on our own soil. And why? Because those places didn’t vote for him? Presidents are supposed to represent & protect ALL of us—not just the places that vote for them. This is the deranged and dangerous talk of a lunatic.

Susan Collins’s reputation for moderation deserves to be measured against her votes. Continues below Wake up pay attention! She betrayed you, you don’t keep voting her back in! Honestly what the f**k 🤨🥴🤔 #USDemocracy 👇
…In 2018, she supported Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation after expressing confidence in his respect for Roe v. Wade. In 2022, Kavanaugh joined the majority that overturned Roe. For voters who trusted her assurances about abortion rights, that is a serious reason to question her judgment.

Collins did not single-handedly determine every outcome. Kavanaugh’s confirmation passed 50–48, and responsibility for overturning Roe belongs to the justices who voted for it. Still, her support helped place him on the Court, and voters are entitled to demand an explanation.

Her immigration-funding record also deserves scrutiny bill by bill. She has supported funding ICE and Border Patrol, while opposing other legislation that included substantial immigration funding.

Accountability means examining the actual decisions—not giving a senator automatic credit for sounding concerned.

Maine voters can assess whether her record matches the protections and priorities she says she supports.

Do you believe Collins has earned continued trust, especially after her assurances about Kavanaugh and Roe?
