It's a good thing I didn't make the debate last night a drinking game because if I drank every time Mike Rogers mentioned the Muslim Brotherhood, I'd be sitting here with a pretty rough hangover!!! #abdulforsenate

I was flipping through crates at my local record store a few weeks ago & then I realized I must have been shopping in the new section. Then I double-checked the sign & it was used vinyl. Most of these albums were at least $20! It's been a decade, but I'd never paid more than $5 for a used record!!

You know when public attention can reverse a prosecutorial decision like this you almost get the sense that the decision to shrug it off in the first place was not based on an assessment of the quality of the evidence so much as an assessment of the seriousness of the crime.

NYT has now independently corroborated all the major allegations against Susan Collins in the ProPublica report, including that investigators were prepared to move against her and then Trump intervened to shut it down. This put Trump in a position of exceptional and extortionate leverage over her.

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 🧵
