@patrickroath.bsky.social I have been so angry that two blocks away, my Mom has @pressley.house.gov as a rep. I am not a union worker from Southie (kudos to Lynch, unions are important), but otherwise he is a dinosaur.
Every week there's another story about Susan Collins abortion record and somehow it never comes up that she: --did a fundraiser at Leonard Leo's house last cycle --thirstily accepted the endorsement of Maine's virulently anti-choice org --spoke at the retirement of the org's leader! #MEpolitics
![Maine Beacon headline: [Susan] Collins attends fundraiser at $4M mansion of nation's top anti-choice judicial activist](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:kvityvfmxlhrepqg5kugljtd/bafkreifais2ph4yylh5ironzk7pxuavcn4qh27v2em7vtogogfccudttnu)
The Portland Press Herald has blocked me because I criticize their disgraceful Collins perfidy to Mainers. When people wonder how Collins wins, she has captured the press and edits her coverage. Critics get blocked. I am a paid subscriber blocked for demanding accountability and truth.
Reelected because the "independent" and "liberal" Press Herald allows her office to rewrite articles. Maine is no better than red states captive to Sinclair - an active disinformation campaign willingly enabled by all local media. I wish the national media would expose the corruption...
Lindsey Graham was a simple, tragic man to understand. He lacked a moral core. The great empty spaces of his life were filled with an insatiable need for “relevance.” He found it as a cast member in the most malignant reality show ever made. steveschmidt.substack.com/p/lindsey-kn...
Lindsey knew better. He chose worse.
Lindsey Graham was a lonely and unprincipled man who betrayed his country for power and his decency for attention.

As a NE Patriots fan, the US team is done. Nothing they accomplish(ed) will outrun the stink. Was the red card bunk - yes. Did the NFL run tests the next year and refuse to disclose the results because they showed that temperatures affect the ball inflation - yes. Cheaters forever - yes.
Who in ME-2 supports this war? I know Golden is out, but who is paying him to spit in his constituents' faces?
Sahil Kapur@sahilkapur.bsky.social · 3mo agoThe House votes 212-212 (!) on a resolution to end the Iran war. It fails. 3 Republicans vote YES: Barrett, Fitzpatrick, Massie 1 Democrat votes NO: Golden Barrett, who virtually never bucks his party on big votes, says he flipped because the war has crossed the 60-day mark.
It's not hyperbole in the least to say Musk purchased a six-month shadow presidency for $280 million and used the power of that shadow presidency to 1. Steal the government’s data, 2. Permanently damage the state’s ability to regulate his businesses, and 3, kill non-white people.

I can’t believe how stupid everything is. I just hate the stupidity.
We have first amendment rights, until ICE decides we don’t. We have second amendment rights, until ICE decides we don’t. We have fourth amendment rights, until ICE decides we don’t. We have eyes that see and ears that hear, until our government decides we don’t.

Janet Mills: Susan Collins "has the ability to pick up the phone and put an end to this." Either she does and isn't doing it...or Mills is wrong...in which case what use she (Collins)? #MEpolitics
Janet Mills@janetmillsforme.bsky.social · 7mo agoSusan Collins loves to say she’s in one of the most powerful positions in the Senate until it’s time to use that power. She should be standing up to this administration, but she refuses.

Senator Mark Warner@markwarner.bsky.social · 7mo agoDespite Trump’s promises, grocery prices are still rising fast. Families can’t afford this… when is he going to get serious about lowering costs?
Why is it so hard for the media to say that Trump wants Russia to win? It is disgraceful that Zelensky has to keep up this charade.
This is fecklessness worthy of our Maine delegation.

The person charged with enforcing the laws is an open lawbreaker, assisted by a team of open lawbreakers, backed by a Congressional majority indifferent to lawbreaking, supported by a Supreme Court that privileges them to break the law. It has no legitimacy whatsoever.
Kevin Morgan@jvmguy.bsky.social · 8mo agoThe person charged with enforcing the laws is himself a law breaker. In such a state, do laws even have any legitimacy?

Susan Collins vote for RFK Jr was indefensible and disqualifying. She knows, we know it, everybody knows it. It can't be defended so instead she goes for a pathetic and inane attempt to change the subject. #MEpolitics
danny@dabbs346.bsky.social · 11mo agoSusan Collins quadruples down on her crucial vote to confirm RFK Jr. #mesen #mepolitics
so the president who is intentionally tanking the economy, ordering the military invasion of american cities and indiscriminately sending innocent people to foreign slave labor camps is also in the child rape brag book of the worlds most notorious pedophile? is all that correct?
Collins advances an evil regime with every action, but then show votes against it when passage is safe . @pressherald.com always gives cover. Maine has the most embarrassing federal delegation thanks to the PPH failure to hold anyone to account. What is the purpose of the PPH?
