That this will drive the Bluesky pearl clutchers out of their minds is enough reason for me to vote for him. #MEPolitics #MESenate #GrahamPlatner

What boot licking looks like in practice for Susan Collins.
“Collins, who recently announced she would run this year for a sixth term in the Senate, has largely stood by during the Trump administration’s all-out assault on federal climate and clean energy policy.” #MESenate #MEpolitics

Collins is susceptible to pressure. Bc of massive pressure she pleaded the DHS to alleviate ICE’s presence in ME earlier this winter.
ME also has one of the highest concentration of vets and this war is not popular. She is going to face massive pressure on this and worth pushing her. #MESenate

In other words Susan Collins is ALL IN with Trump's latest unconstitutional war in the Middle East.
Just garbled words giving her special gloss of concern from the regime's resident bootlicker from Maine. #MEPolitics #MESenate #MESen

Someone should reach out to Susan Collin's office and find out if she attended a major fundraiser that was reported set to be c-hosted by Casey Wasserman. #MEPolitics #MESenate www.nytimes.com/2025/08/19/u...

Susan Collins desperately trying to buy time for Trump, Miller and Noem. I hope Maine doesn't fall for this BS as Trump/Miller's agents surge into that state. #MEPolitics #MESenate

From Sen Appropriations Committee website with photo of Susan Collins "Chair Collins First elected in 1996, Senator Collins has earned a national reputation as an effective legislator who works across party lines to seek consensus on our nation’s most important issues. She was reelected in 2002, 2008, 2014, and 2020. In 2020, she made history by becoming the first-ever Republican woman in the nation to win a fifth term. She is also the first popularly elected U.S. Senator from Maine to be elected to a fifth term. She is the seventh-most senior member of the Senate and the most senior Republican woman. She is the first Republican woman to Chair the Appropriations Committee. As the Chair of the Senate Appropriations Committee, Senator Susan Collins employs her influence, seniority, and experience to benefit the people of Maine and America. The committee has jurisdiction over all discretionary spending for the federal government. Senator Collins first joined the Appropriations Committee in 2009. In the 118th Congress, she served as Vice Chair of the full Committee and Ranking Member of the Defense Appropriation Subcommittee. "
Susan Collins is the Chair of the Senate Appropriations Committee. DHS/ICE is currently surging into her state just like it has done in Minneapolis, Chicago & LA.
She pretends to be a moderate but if she were she wouldn't agree to appropriating one more dollar for ICE. #MESenate #MEPolitics

On the flipside these massive Ls should make the Sen. & House Rs think twice abt bowing to Trump. No one is going to be safe from the wrath of the electorate in 2026.
I'd be deeply concerned abt being seen or you know having breakfast w the current occupant of the White house. #MESenate #MEPolitics

![“Senators and aides involved in negotiations tell us some Senate Democrats are warming to Thune’s offer to open the government and then hold a vote by a date-certain on renewing the extending the expiring Obamacare subsidies. Senators involved in these talks include Gary Peters (D-Mich.), Katie Britt (R-Ala.), Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.), Susan Collins (R-Maine), Maggie Hassan (D-N.H.) and Mike Rounds (R-S.D.).
The shutdown has become too painful, many of these Democrats believe, and Republicans clearly aren’t going to cave by negotiating an Obamacare deal before the stalemate ends. A date-certain vote on Obamacare subsidies creates another new deadline and allows time to craft a bill that could win enough GOP support.
Now that open enrollment has begun, these Democrats say, they can blame Republicans for premium hikes — as Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer did during a floor speech Monday — and use that to pressure GOP senators on the issue.
The second element under discussion involves pairing the stopgap funding bill to open the government with a three-bill minibus and other guarantees to pass full-year appropriations bills on an agreed-upon timeline.
“There’s certainly ways to do that,” Peters told us. “We all want to have a real appropriations process … We’ve passed a number of bills [in committee], broadly bipartisan. I’d like to actually see those get signed into law.”
The attractive part of this offer for senators would be to avoid a full-year CR that many hardline House Republicans and the White House want. You may have noticed that most of the senators involved in these talks are also appropriators. That’s no coincidence.
The GOP senators in the bipartisan group are explicitly framing this as a way for Democrats to not only preserve their power over the funding process, but also to push back against House Republicans and the White House.

More signs coming out this am and that moderate corporate Senate Dems are getting ready to surrender to Republicans based on getting a promise on a health care vote.
Led by Shaheen, Peters, and Hassan working w who else - Susan Collins. @punchbowlnews.bsky.social #MEsenate

Just tbc I don’t have any favorites in the #MESenate - but it would be ideal to have a Democrat who will:
- attack Susan Collins and her MAGA bosses w ferocity
- will engage & excite ME’s grassroots; knock on doors (have personally knocked on over 10k doors in ME)
- get the basics of Senate.

A simple reminder: Susan Collins voted for RFK Jr. She should never serve in the U.S. Senate again for that vote alone (as kids in Maine will die bc of him). #MEPolitics #MESen #MESenate
