  1. I think #UselessSusanCollins should be VERY CONCERNED about her #JeffreyEpstein connections!

    More Donations from #Epstein Contacts to #SusanCollins Uncovered

    "Sen. Susan Collins accepted campaign donations from known Jeffrey Epstein associates and took legislative action to block the release of the #EpsteinFiles.

    "Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) accepted campaign donations from known Jeffrey Epstein associates, while taking legislative action to block the release of the Epstein files. More names of Collins' donors with Epstein ties have been identified since the first MeidasTouch report.

    "In September of 2025, Collins accepted a $10,000 donation from Epstein associate #CaseyWasserman, including $7,000 to her campaign committee and $3,000 to #DirigoPAC, a political action committee sponsored by Collins. Wasserman also hosted a Hollywood fundraiser for Collins.

    "Wasserman was forced to sell his business after his close friendship with Epstein and #GhislaineMaxwell became public. Wasserman had taken multiple flights with Epstein and exchanged emails of a sexual nature to Maxwell, saying among other things, "I think of you all the time. So, what do I have to do to see you in a tight leather outfit?"

  2. The FBI #AntiCorruption Squad Was Circling #SusanCollins — Until #Trump Got in the Way

    "Reporting Highlights

    - Probe: In 2024, the FBI sought to launch a sweeping pay-to-play investigation examining interactions between Sen. Susan Collins and a top donor, records and emails show.
    - Confession: The donor, an ex-defense contractor, told agents his company won millions in federal contracts by bankrolling campaigns of powerful politicians.
    - Shutdown: After Donald Trump returned to office, the investigation died, a casualty of his purge of the FBI. Its closure shut a potential window into how Washington works."

  3. The #PortlandME No Immunity for #BigOil rally was small, but powerful! We chanted and marched from #UselessSusanCollins office to #AngusKing 's office to #ChelliePingree 's office. Only Chellie committed to making Big Oil pay. I did NOT volunteer to go into Susan Collins' office, as I'm still on her shit-list. Met some good folks from #ThirdAct and #NRCM . It seems I was the only #MaineDSA member there, but that's okay -- a rally should have at least one card-carrying #Socialist! My hand-painted signs were a big hit. Someone asked if I hand painted #NoJobsOnADeadPlanet one. "Yup! No AI involved!" to which everyone laughed. I'm glad I went. I've been burnt out from protesting, so it was good to get my activist batteries recharged hanging out with good people!

  4. Hubby seems to think they'll just appoint #JanetMills. Well, at least we know she has a backbone and will stand up against #Trump! Unlike #UselessSusanCollins!

  5. Eyes widen as #SusanCollins struggles through Fox News interview: 'Yeah, she's cooked'

    Nicole Charky-Chami
    June 22, 2026

    " 'Susan Collins is unsteady and struggling throughout this entire segment. Her inability to sit through even a softball interview gives a lot of insight into why she hasn't held a town hall in 25 years,' Lauren French, communications director at Democratic group Senate Majority PAC, wrote on X.

    " 'Susan Collins is on Fox News but notably, the interview was pre-taped. She seems to be struggling her way through it. I wonder how heavily it's been edited,' journalist Aaron Rupar wrote on X."

  6. #Maine - #WabanakiAlliance holds U.S. Senate candidate forum, participants discuss gaps in #IndigenousEducation

    By Arianna Perdomo on April 20, 2026

    "Democratic U.S. Senate candidates #DavidCostello and #GrahamPlatner outlined their positions on tribal sovereignty and education during a debate organized by the Wabanaki Alliance on April 16 on Indian Island in Old Town, which is home of the #PenobscotNation. The event was hosted by Penobscot Nation members and offered a chance to discuss non-partisan policy affecting #WabanakiNations and candidates’ plans to support those communities.

    "Located less than 15 minutes from the #UniversityOfMaine, #IndianIsland sits along the #PenobscotRiver. This reservation serves as a cultural and historical center for the Penobscot people. Within the community there are buildings and museums that reflect ongoing preservation efforts of Wabanaki culture. According to the Wabanaki Alliance, the Penobscot Nation is one of the oldest continuous governments in the world and remains committed to protecting territories, culture and language as a federally recognized #SovereignNation.

    "The debate was moderated by Dr. #DarrenRanco, chair of the #NativeAmerican programs at #UMaine. Notably, Democratic candidate Gov. #JanetMills and five-term Republican candidate Sen. #SusanCollins were extended invitations to participate, but were not in attendance. However, Costello and Platner offered insight on their approach to ongoing issues facing Wabanaki nations.

    "Opening remarks were delivered by #MaulianBryant, executive director of the Wabanaki Alliance and Chief of the Penobscot Indian Nation, #KirkFrancis. Each candidate then gave a five minute opening introduction explaining why they are running.

    "The first round of the debate consisted of eight questions surrounding topics of tribal sovereignty, environmental justice, regulation and the implementation of legislation that would help address these issues. Costello and Platner agreed that there needs to be a restructuring of the government and a new balance of power. Both candidates stated that they would support legislation that helped extend the power to engage the Wabanaki people in issues that are important to them."

  7. Looks like #JanetMills wants to stay in power as Senator Mills. She's been changing her tune on #IndigenousSovereignty and now this?

    #Maine Governor backs #MillionaireTax, flipping from prior stance

    By Greg Ryan Bloomberg,Updated April 2, 2026

    "Maine Governor Janet Mills now supports increasing taxes on the state’s richest residents, reversing her past opposition after lagging in recent polls for a key Democratic Senate primary.

    "Mills on Thursday endorsed a millionaire tax included in a budget proposal that passed a committee for the Democrat-controlled legislature. She vetoed a similar increase in 2024 and maintained that such a measure was short-sighted in an interview just a few weeks ago.

    "Mills’ flip-flop comes as the 78-year-old trails political newcomer #GrahamPlatner in their contest to be the Democratic nominee to take on Republican #UselessSusanCollins in November. Platner, a 41-year-old oyster farmer, has called for higher taxes on the rich."

  8. Strongly worded (but still polite) voicemail has been left for #UselessSuSanCollins. "As a Maine voter, I am very disappointed. I don't know what kind of deal you have with Donald Trump, but if you want to keep your job, you need to vote against the #SAVEAct."

  9. I told Susan Collins that if she doesn't change her mind about the #SAVEAct, then this voter, who will NOT be affected, will help to make sure she is NOT re-elected!

  10. #Warmonger Sen. Collins defends decision to vote against war powers resolution

    March 4, 2026

    "Maine’s two U.S. Senators were split on a resolution aimed at blocking further military action in Iran without Congressional authorization that failed in the Senate on Wednesday.

    Maine Republican Sen. Susan Collins voted against the procedural measure, while Independent Sen. Angus King voted in favor.

    The measure failed along party lines in a 52-48 vote in the Republican-led chamber."

  11. This is #UselessSusanCollins' response to my concerns about the #SAVEAct . Wow...! It seems she's #VeryConcerned about losing her seat and is in support of it!

    February 12, 2026

    Dear _______,

    Thank you for contacting me to express your concerns regarding the Safeguarding American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act. I appreciate your taking the time to do so.

    The SAVE Act, which was introduced by Senator Mike Lee (R-UT), would amend the National Voter Registration Act to require proof of United States #citizenship when registering to vote. It is already illegal for noncitizens to vote in federal elections, but this legislation would establish means for confirming citizenship, require states to establish a process for removing noncitizens from voter rolls, and create federal penalties for knowingly registering a noncitizen to vote in federal elections. It would also establish an alternative verification pathway for individuals who lack proper documentation but are, in fact, United States citizens. The SAVE Act has been referred to the Senate Committee on Rules and Administration, on which I do not serve.

    Should the SAVE Act or similar legislation concerning federal elections be considered by the full Senate, I will review it carefully. Again, thank you for contacting me.

    Sincerely,

    Susan M. Collins
    United States Senator

  12. They have been trying to pass #SAVEAct for years. And yeah, #UselessSusanCollins authored one of the early versions, along with #MartinHeinrich (D-NM). With #Democrats like that, who needs the #GOP?!!!

    SAVE Act
    Securing America’s Voting Equipment Act of 2017

    "U.S. Senators Martin Heinrich (D-N.M.) and Susan Collins (R-Maine), members of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, introduced bipartisan legislation to protect American election systems from foreign interference. The Securing America’s Voting Equipment (SAVE) Act would help safeguard voting systems, registration data, and ballots from theft, manipulation, and malicious computer hackers

    The SAVE Act would:
    "Designate voting systems as critical infrastructure for the purposes of the
    Department of Homeland Security (#DHS)." [Oh yeah, that sounds like a GREAT f*cking idea... NOT!]

  13. Heh, I mean #UselessSusanCollins is VERY CONCERNED she might lose the election! @mattblaze @Ehay2k @heidilifeldman

  14. The primaries aren't until next June. Flawed as he is, Platner would be better than #UselessSusanCollins. However, Janet Mills is looking better (consistency, sortakinda). Jared Golden of the 2nd District won't be running, so I think Maine will be stuck with Paul LePlague in the 2nd District, and Chellie Pingree in the 1st District. @MusiqueNow

  15. Another #BernieSanders endorsed #Maine candidate!

    This Maine #oysterman thinks Democrats are doing ‘jack’ about #fascism. So he’s running for US Senate

    #GrahamPlatner’s viral X post and unusual campaign launch video are bringing attention to his effort to unseat #SusanCollins

    Christopher Mathias

    "One of Graham Platner’s high school yearbooks shows him babyfaced with a buzzcut, holding a sign proclaiming, in part: '#FreePalestine.' The image is accompanied by a superlative his classmates bestowed upon him: 'Most Likely to Start a #Revolution.'

    " 'We’ll see!' Platner wrote on X Thursday, posting a photo of the yearbook page, in a post that’s been viewed 4.5m times. Now bearded, burly and tattooed, with a sweep of dirty blond hair above a sunburnt face, Platner still believes in a Free Palestine. He also thinks it’ll take something revolutionary to save the US, so earlier this week, when the oysterman announced his candidacy to be the next US senator from Maine, he pulled no punches."
