Shepherd @shepherd46.bsky.social · 16hOut for breakfast this morning, there was a man bragging about his new job knocking doors for Senator Collins in Aroostook County, Maine. He's surprised that he doesn't have to know anything about her and amazed that they cleared his background check within 24 hrs and put his butt on the next plane. 010
