Please understand that #Murkowski, #Collins, and #McConnell only voted against #Hegseth because they could do so without endangering his nomination. It was a fake vote of conscience intended to contribute to salvaging their unsalvageable reputations. If Hegseth had needed their votes to be confirmed, they would have voted for him. Which senators get to vote performatively like this without endangering the outcome is carefully choreographed in advance of the vote.

Senator #SusanCollins of #Maine claims that the prosecution of #Trump should never have been brought, that he was prosecuted because of who he was. [ed. A criminal?]

Does #Senator #Collins think that she should receive special treatment if she commits a crime? I’d like to know the answer to that question.

There are too many #politicians, #oligarchs, and #celebrities who expect that they will never be held accountable for their illegal acts. This attitude needs to be confronted & ended.

U.S. Sen. #Susan #Collins voted for former South Carolina Gov. #Nikki #Haley in Tuesday’s Republican presidential primary, becoming only the third member of Congress to back the longshot challenger to former President Donald Trump.

Collins, a longtime Trump skeptic who was one of seven Republicans to vote to convict him on a Democratic impeachment charge related to the Capitol riots of Jan. 6, 2021, backed Haley in a Friday statement in response to questions from the Bangor Daily News.
She called Haley “extremely well-qualified” to be the first female president.
“She has the energy, intellect, and temperament that we need to lead  our country in these very tumultuous times,” Collins said.

Bangor Daily News · Susan Collins backs Nikki Haley over Donald Trump in Maine’s Republican primaryBy Michael Shepherd

Former #US President Donald #Trump will be “against #Americans” if he chooses to support #Russia over #Ukraine, the war-torn country’s President Volodymyr #Zelensky said Sunday.

Speaking to CNN’s Kaitlan #Collins in #Kyiv, Zelensky said he “can’t understand how Donald Trump can be on the side of (Russian President Vladimir) Putin.”

“It’s unbelievable,” he added.

Georgia Congressman Casually Endorses Throwing Migrant From Helicopter 😶

And by referencing #Pinochet and his over the top cartel murder methods, Loudmouth Republican Representative Mike #Collins (GA) was “parroting a meme that’s been popular among #whitesupremacists & #neofascists like the #ProudBoys for the last 7 or so years.” Just buy HIM a ticket on Pinochet Air.

Ignoring a looming veto, #House approves #Johnson's stillborn bill for aid to #Israel.

Despite testimony from #Austin & #Blinken that #Russian aggression in #Ukraine and #Hamas attacks on #Israel are interlinked, and despite warnings from #McConnell & #Collins that we need a combined package for Ukraine and Israel, Johnson birthed a bill that cleaves Ukraine out

Either the bill will die in the Senate, or it will face a presidential veto, if it still has any life in it
