Susan Collins's super PAC has raised $15,562,897.01 in itemized contributions from billionaires, shady dark money groups and Newsmax (which has given $50,000) so far. None of it -- not one cent -- is from Maine.

The problem with Platner's sexts is that Susan Collins votes with Trump 95% of the time and played a pivotal role in shredding abortion rights in America.

NEW: WSJ reports that in the context of brainstorming possible opposition research/vulnerabilities last year, Graham Platner's wife Amy told a campaign staffer she had once found sexts to other women on Platner's phone...a disclosure that has now found its way to a Murdoch outlet. Hmm.

Not important but having trouble getting inside the head of someone who learns this sorta private/confidential info as part of a Dem campaign...then leaks it to a Fox News sister outlet. Like what story are you telling yourself? Can understand leaking all sorts of things but not this.

The reality is that Susan Collins both sided cancer research. She voted for more funding (including for a substantial increase for the type of cancer I have), while aiding the destruction of promising research by voting for cranks at NIH. That could be Peak Susan Collinsing.

ProPublica identified 17 people who each shielded at least $1 billion in capital gains from the so-called Net Investment Income Tax. Together, this small group, by collectively exempting more than $35 billion, saved about $1.3 billion in taxes. (Published Dec. 2024)

How Billionaires Sidestepped a Tax Aimed at the Rich
Wall Street financiers were a clear target of the tax, but some, on questionable legal grounds, have claimed their outsized profits were exempt, sometimes avoiding hundreds of millions in taxes.

I am so angry. Two Durham, NC kids - 11-year-old Genesis and 6-year-old Denis of Burton Elementary Magnet School - were taken by ICE at their regular asylum case appointment, and immediately deported without due process. Follow SiembraNC on IG or FB or

Susan Collins continues to embrace the GOP's vote suppression bill and to cast herself as "the firewall" against its defeat. It's disgusting and disqualifying all by itself. Dems and Dem-aligned groups should be messaging on this and running ads about it.

Love the competition going on between Matt Dunlap and Jordan Wood to get in front of CD-2 primary voters and earn their trust. It's what democracy is all about -- but also a healthy/tacit rebuke to aloof Jared Golden whose wallflower shtick looks worse with each passing day.

Susan Collins is back to using a pre-checked recurring donation box on her fundraising solicitations. (She stopped for a while after it got attn.) FEC has called on Congress to ban this scammy, predatory practice known for exploiting unsuspecting seniors.

Raskin: What makes somebody a good lawyer? You have to identify with the people who are the victims of injustice — not with their perpetrators. So I would say to Pam Bondi: If you’re going to stand with the victimizers and not the victims, then you’re not a real lawyer.

Ha! Exactly, Andy. Anyone who falls for this admin's excuses and reasoning for just about ever single thing they do should not be allowed out of their house. It's the biggest smokescreen and distraction game this nation has ever seen, all done while they dismantle everything & sell off the parts.

Susan Collins super PAC pals give her credit for money that she voted AGAINST in a new ad. Typical but still infuriating. A liar surrounded by liars -- the only one she's been able to hold on this long.

CALL ANGUS. Why should ICE get any more money? So they can more effectively disrupt our elections? Disrupt more cities? Disappear more people?

Of all the Trump nominees that Susan Collins has voted against, every single one of them has been confirmed except one -- who was opposed by Wall Street -- and even on that nominee, Collins wasn't the deciding vote.
