"Navatek’s CEO, Martin Kao, sent an initial $150,000 to the Collins super PAC using the shell company. Two months later, he told Navatek executives that Collins committed to getting the company $32 million in naval contracts, according to an internal company email reviewed by ProPublica."

Corrupt Susan Collins saved by a Kash Patel and Pam Bondi cover up.

Remember when Tom Cotton blocked a basic diplomatic appointment by Obama just to — and I’m quoting here — “inflict special pain on the president”?

He held up the nomination until eventually the woman died of cancer without being confirmed.

Tom Cotton has always been trash. 🗑️

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 🧵

NEWS: ProPublica reports the FBI was building a pay-to-play bribery case around Susan Collins, after a defense contractor's CEO said he funneled cash to her super PAC in exchange for tens of millions in Navy contracts. Then Trump and Kash Patel gutted the FBI's anti-corruption unit and the investigation died, just as Collins fights to hold her seat.

This is what oligarchy and political corruption is all about.

Crypto billionaires are now spending $30 million to defeat Sherrod Brown in Ohio — only days after Senate Democrats blocked their CLARITY Act.

We cannot allow billionaires to buy elections.

Fight back!

BREAKING: The White House told the Pentagon to give a $620 million loan to a company Trump Jr. just invested in.

THE USA 🇺🇸 became laughing stock during NATO exercises in the Arctic, as reported by The Times.

American troops struggled to operate effectively in Arctic conditions, lacks equipment and know-how for sustained activity in the Arctic. A large number of soldiers gave up and left the exercise.

NATO defence officials have confirmed that European allies, led by the UK and Scandinavian countries, currently carry the primary responsibility for Arctic military operations, as the United States lacks sufficient forces and experience.

Senator, here is a video of you voting against the most recent Iran War Powers Resolution.

You have had 13 chances to oppose the war, but you voted with Trump every single time. You and your party are the reason diesel is $6.57/gal in Iowa.

Soooooooooo….

[Elizabeth Warren @ewarren]

Donald Trump is now the first president in American history to own and regulate his own bank. Just one more opportunity to feast off the American people.

This woman and her family live in Denton,Texas & her husband had signed up to be a voting registrar & went to pick up his badge & was told his & his wife & daughter’s voting rights were all suspended for not filling out a card none of them ever received. So it’s continuing.

WTF: The White House is set to launch "TRUMP TV" at 7:00 PM ET.

It will be official state-run media.

But look over there…the communist.

Literally shredding the constitution.

She's not wrong. They haven't stopped shit. This is the most incompetent administration that has ever existed in US history.

[Molly Jong-Fast @MollyJongFast]

The Trump administration is considering proposals for at least 12 data centers and data center-related infrastructure projects to be built on federal public lands — far more than previously known.

[Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray]

Breast cancer patients shouldn’t be denied hope of a new lifesaving treatment because Russ Vought thinks women’s health research is woke.

I will fight this plan tooth and nail.

[Thomas Massie @RepThomasMassie]

🤔If the “news” reports that everyone will get $5,000 checks if Republicans win the midterms, does that make them “fake news?”

If it is real news, does it mean Republicans are running “against socialism” or “for socialism?”

[Garry Kasparov @Kasparov63]

Being debunked by Lukashenko is yet another new low for Trump.
