Susan Collins Just Struck Out

The latest bombshell reporting about the relationship between Collins’ political operation and a defense contractor makes it worth looking back at her whole career. Because, the truth is, her political operation has always been as corrupt as any other pol you can fill with enough helium to animate. Like Mitch McConnell. She's just cleverly and corruptly camouflaged it behind a brand-borrowing, bumbling, ever-frowning persona.

When Trump faced his first impeachment, Collins voted to acquit him. Her reassurance? “I hope that the president has learned the lesson.” Additionally, Collins built her career telling voters she supported abortion rights. When any criticism would come her way. she has hid behind her supposed staunch support for choice. Then she voted to confirm Brett Kavanaugh to a lifetime on the Supreme Court.

Asked About His Trump Baggage, Husted Picks Up More

Hegseth Boasts No ‘Fatties’ ‘Trannies' Or ‘Wimps’ In His ‘Warrior’ Military

Pete Hegseth is the country’s most unqualified, unfit secretary of defense in history. He can’t even do his job without the help of his even less qualified mommywife. But he strutted like a tinpot dictator boasting about how tough he has made the military.

“It’s worth saying again so that the fake news understands it,” Hegseth sneered. “We are no longer the woke department or the weak department. Simple translation of that. No fanny, no fatties, no trannies, no beardos, no weirdos, no wimps, no radicals, just warriors, just tough, ready, committed troops.”

Guys like Hegseth always equate tough with insults.
