NYT has now independently corroborated all the major allegations against Susan Collins in the ProPublica report, including that investigators were prepared to move against her and then Trump intervened to shut it down. This put Trump in a position of exceptional and extortionate leverage over her.

Ossoff: "I have zero interest in running for president. Georgia voters have an immediate interest in understanding the full extent of Mike Collins's ties to some of the nation's most notorious white nationalists ... these are not allegations. These are facts."

Sen. Susan Collins helped steer millions in federal defense contracts to Navatek, whose CEO illegally funneled thousands of dollars to her campaign. The FBI sought to launch a probe and was eyeing Collins and other lawmakers. Then Trump gutted the unit in charge. THREAD 🧵

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed." -Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1953

Don’t believe the lies. Trump is *not* selling $2.8 billion of bombs for Israel’s genocide. It’s worse. Trump is *giving away* $2.8 billion of bombs for Israel’s genocide. American taxpayers are paying for those bombs.

MS NOW: "The Talarico campaign is filing a legal motion to unseal two depositions Ken Paxton gave in 2019 and 2022. A source tells MS NOW the Talarico campaign has reason to believe Paxton admitted to crimes in those depositions."

A recent survey found that 92% of U.S. adults have delayed or avoided medical care due to high costs. Meanwhile, a new study from Yale estimates that Medicare for All would save over 114,000 lives and $1 trillion a year. If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have universal healthcare.

Nearly all the extras in this iconic scene were French expatriates. Their tears during the stirring rendition of La Marseillaise were genuine— filmed at a time when the fate of France was still uncertain. CASABLANCA (1942) #MichaelCurtiz

I wonder why 90 days. Couldn’t be because the midterms are in… 74 days, right? Right? Apparently communist price controls are fine when you’re trying to get votes. Who knew?

But the government doesn’t have enough money for school lunches or Medicare prescription subsidies. The United States values killing people in other countries over keeping people alive in our own.

Let me get this right? There’s been a massive number of lynchings in the US over the past year and we are not hearing about this from the NYT, WaPo, LA Times, or any other major outlet? Can we get @propublica.org to cover this?

These questions have now been asked of Blanche repeatedly & he gives the same bullshit answer each time. Here’s an idea: How about we ask Blanche direct and pointed questions about his noncompliance with court orders from Judge Sullivan compelling him to provide unredacted Epstein Files?

WELKER: Can you pledge the DOJ will always act independently of the WH? BLANCHE: No, I'm not going to pledge that WELKER: So if the president asked you do to something that you feel crosses an ethical or legal line, would you do it? BLANCHE: He would never do that. He never has. He never will.

We could eliminate $7 billion in medical debt with the $70 million they spent to beat me in the primary. Those same corporations and special interests are trying to buy the seat for Mike Rogers now. In November we teach them once and for all: Michigan is not for sale.

Anyone familiar with history knows that East Germany was notoriously in favor of Western Europe. They even built a wall to prove it. Tucker is either an idiot, a Russian asset, or both. “Al Capone, on the spectrum of extemely violent mobsters, was firmly on the moderate side.”

Post-Left Watch@postleftwatch.bsky.social

Tucker Carlson: "Putin, on the spectrum of Russian politics, is firmly on the moderate side." Glenn Greenwald: "Yes." Tucker: "And Pro-European, and his early career was in Europe, in East Germany as a KGB officer, famously speaks German."

Paxton has his aide step and doesn't answer when someone asks him "how come on a government salary you own over 15 houses?"

This is all a crazy effort to rewrite the past, yes. But what's really terrifying is hearing these people tell us how badly they're going to fuck up the *next* pandemic they're now creating without that nerd Fauci holding them back.

Peter Navarro: "I had a million doses of hydroxychloroquine in warehouses as the defense policy coordinator that I was trying to distribute to hospitals. And Fauci got the FDA stop me from doing that."

Alex Jones, who has not paid a single cent to the Sandy Hook families despite owing them $1.4 billion, has been in a $3,000 per night suite in Hawaii for the last few weeks illegally using the InfoWars accounts to boost his traffic. Today he said there's going to be a national draft in three weeks.
