Susan Collins's latest financial report just came out.
A staggering one-third of her money raised this quarter came directly from AIPAC.
Senator Collins is bought and paid for by Benjamin Netanyahu, and she votes accordingly.
The Graham Platner story is landing because it confirms a bunch of his criticsโ prior concerns: unvetted, history of poor decision-making, the kind of light misogyny that tends to go along with male bad decision-making. Those are all problems! But itโs worth asking if theyโre problems that should be disqualifying for a senate seat and I think the answer to that is no.
