"Maine veterans showed up outside Senator Susan Collins' Portland office this weekend with 168 lunchboxes, one for each schoolgirl killed in the Minab school bombing, and 13 portraits memorializing the 13 American service members killed in the war in Iran." (From Common Defense)

It’s real simple- there were a bunch of people in our Intel community, in our judicial system and our legislative system that could have said no- the public also could have said now long before now

But that didn't happen, and military command has an outstanding grasp of constitutional law as it applies to their profession and rules of engagement… So they all know better, but they're doing it anyway

I hate all of this. The military was never perfect but it wasn’t like this mess made by Hegseth and his KKKristian Nationalist loyalists in uniform and believe me they have always been there but the regs kept them in check prior to 🍊💩💼

Every woman of child-bearing years or with daughters in Maine should show up and vote against Susan Collins for her deciding vote FOR Brett Kavanaugh for SCOTUS in 2018. They lost a guaranteed US Constitutional right to control their own bodies, on the books and reaffirmed dozen of times since 1973!

Good! Time for her to retire. These greedy ghouls hold onto power like limpets. If she wants a job she could pop down to Walmart, see how long she lasts working her flabby cheeks off for peanuts!

That's a powerful visual. And worth noting, the Minab bombing was one of the deadliest attacks on schoolchildren in the region since 2018—Amnesty called it a possible war crime within days. The scale often gets lost.

Powerful imagery, but I’m curious how much this resonates beyond core activists. Do these kinds of protests ever move the needle with someone like Collins, or just reinforce existing views on both sides?

You could keep it more "local" and mention women dying in the U.S. after she made clear she'd lied Roe v. Wade was settled law. My sister, the Republican, could vote for Republicans thinking that. Don't make it complicated, like Dems do, and think you need 300 reasons: focus and hammer only on that.

Trump’s defeat by Iran proves again the Iranians are skilled at spotting weaknesses in U.S. presidents. With Trump they have many to work with—more than Jimmy Carter. Trump has compared himself to Alexander the Great. In reality, he’s more like Barney Fife. bsky.app/profile/vinc...

Regardless of the spin from the Trump Lie Machine, his regime-change/nuclear neutering war against Iran was a failure. Iran won. The U.S. was defeated. Supreme General Macho Man lost. The Iran War proved he is a loser. Again. vincewade.com/nothing-acco...

This is on all the republican Voters. The GOP. His cabinet. SCOTUS.Judges. Billionaires. All could have stopped him but decided to be enablers. The orange goo hardly if ever comes out and express’s empathy towards a tragic event Because he has none. They aren’t real to him. Just things. Good quality

Senator Susan Collins considers herself far too elevated, one of the elite Republicans, and too advanced to consider the needs and wants of her constituents; Collins shows little interest in engaging with them through town hall meetings or local news interviews to ascertain their views.

Senator Susan Collins raised over $10+ millions from billionaire donors! Why? They paid the money to her reelection network, which represents roughly one-third of the total funds raised by groups supporting her campaign. She has about 42% to 45% people likely to support her reelection.

Platner has a questionable past. The MSM constantly reminds us. But let’s look at the bigger picture. The always “concerned” Susan Collins is MAGA who constantly votes for Trump. Let’s not forget her Kavanaugh vote that ultimately overturned Roe. Our democracy is at stake! Susan must GO!!!

That is a brilliant and ballsy move. Respect to them. What I'm about to say is pedestrian and pretty obvious but the way this country treats its vets is criminal. This has gone on pretty much regardless of which party is in control & that is shameful. Do more for vets. End of sermon.

Yeah, so lets replace her with an actual Nazi, rapist sympathizer, alcoholic, lying, racist, murderer with PTSD. You dumb fucks are unbelievable. Itll be about 6mo before theres a dead hooker in a hotel room with Platners DNA all over her. You have to be the stupidest people on earth.

Inform her supporters of the women she allowed to die, the black and brown humans dead because of her, remind them of her lie of only two terms. She is a psychopath. May her God deliver upon her Brett Kavanaugh, drunk.

Collins voted for dumps agenda 97%, that means she is okay with the war, you not having healthcare, you paying more for gas/food, families being kidnapped by ICE, SNAP taken away from children/elderly, she works for dumpty not you, vote her out!!! She is a disgrace.

When are we gonna get the lunchboxes together for the Iraqi civilians Platner murdered in genocidal rage when he as in Ramadi and Fallujah? Nazi boy was in a Nazi unit that got Nazi tattoos together to commemorate acting like a Nazi. The dude posts rape fantasies on Reddit.

That doesn’t make him any less of a Nazi. I’m old enough to remember that Nazis shouldn’t be allowed in society. Now Maine was to elect one for the U.S. Senate.

Outstanding!! She needs to be voted out. Every time there's a bill that hurts Americans, she's right there disparaging it. Then, she turns around and votes for it. Two faced!!

Brilliant. This is how it’s done. Reminds me of the bronze shoes lining the Danube River in Budapest. Symbolizing the nazi murder of Jewish Hungarians. It seems Americans really need a visual representation of the carnage being inflicted. The collective apathy is unbelievable. Not all but most.

The Republicans love killing children here & all over world They adore the unborn though, as long as they STAY unborn ! The Republicans brought us the AR-15( Mitch McConnel made sure AR stayed in circulation ) & zilch in gun laws & now Trump has ruled everyone can get a gun even mail order now!

That is everything Collins voted for! She and all the other Republicans have to own it because it is theirs. Main, it is finally time to cut Collins loose!
