If a Jewish person or a Muslim person politely says “happy holidays,” it’s a “War On Christmas”

"Why did you slip in a provision to pay GOP senators $500,000?" is a question that could be asked of Susan Collins if even one reporter in Maine or DC had the temerity to pose it to her.

On Maine right-wing radio this morning, Susan Collins says she was “responsible for not only putting the bill together, but also managing it on the Senate floor, dealing with proposals to change it…”
So why did she slip in the provision to pay GOP Senators 500k?

You can’t have accountable government if agencies stop publishing data needed to evaluate their actions. DHS, ICE, and State have halted core reporting on removals, detentions, and visas. Our assessment warns that suppressing public data is a key autocratic indicator.

Trump Administration Stops Publishing Immigration Data as It Ramps Up Deportations
“There's no accountability, no way to assess, no public understanding about what's really going on,” an immigration expert said.

From the beginning, Angus's argument has boiled down to 'If we don't give Trump what he wants, he might make things even worse' and you don't have to be a philosophy professor to figure out why that's a flawed, feeble and cowardly line of reasoning. #MEpolitics

Brett Kavanaugh's behavior during today's second oral arguments has been incredibly obnoxious and rude. He is so eager to kill a service member's lawsuit against a negligent government contractor that he keeps interrupting other justices, raising his voice, and getting emotional. Weird and erratic.
