Susan Collins voted to supercharge ICE funding, and the best she can do is politely call @SecMullinDHS and ask him to stop killing her own constituents.

While the investigation of the Biddeford shooting is not yet complete, it raises sufficient critical questions that I spoke with DHS Secretary Mullin last night and urged him to cease all non-urgent vehicle stops.

Trump and House Republicans cut SNAP by $187 billion in the Big Ugly Bill last year. Since then, 4.7 million Americans — including an estimated 1.5 million CHILDREN — have been kicked off food assistance. Now, rumor is that Trump and GOP are coming back for more.
Hell no.

🚨 Major pushback from key House Republicans to the slimmed down recon 3.0 plan Speaker + WH is now pushing — with Iran war $, farm aid + SAVE elements — that isn’t fully paid for “I’m positive there will be pay-fors,” Rep. Warren Davidson (R-Ohio) said. “Or there is no path.” Rep. Erin Houchin (R-Ind.), a Budget Committee member, told @politico last night she had “concerns” about the plans and Rs has “a long way to go” before she would vote to advance the plans in a markup. Today Houchin raised pushback directly to GOP leaders in a closed-door conference meeting. RSC Chair August Pfluger of Texas, one of recon 3.0 biggest boosters, told us: “We really don’t have any details from leadership. We are continuing to urge them to be aggressive and be strong.” Pfluger also said he spoke up during the closed-door House GOP meeting to urge Republicans to do more to tackle fraud in social programs to find more cost savings. Inside the closed door meeting, Johnson told Republicans he wants Budget Committee to advance the plans by end of day Thursday. BUT he also urged them to “be patient” as Rs balk. w/ @Reporter_Mia politico.com/live-updates/2… via @politico

VFW, our nation’s top veteran advocacy group, called out MAGA for trying to cut veterans benefits for disabled veterans.
The response from House Republicans has been one of the most disgraceful and cowardly things I’ve ever seen.

Immoral and unconscionable. The International Criminal Court exists to provide justice to victims when countries can’t or won’t. By trying to destroy it, Trump and Rubio seek to give themselves—alongside Putin, Netanyahu, Maduro, and other human rights abusers—impunity for war crimes committed under their orders.

America never agreed to a world tribunal that can override our own courts and the Constitution.

14 million kids in America are food insecure—a terrible problem that gets worse during the summer when school is out of session & they don’t have access to nutritious school meals. Thankfully, incredible programs like #SummerEats are stepping in to help feed hungry kids!

You just voted to give these thugs another $70 Billion. You’re complicit in this and every other murder committed by Trump’s secret police.
Sen. Susan Collins@SenatorCollins
The shooting in Biddeford requires a full and impartial investigation of what happened. It is my understanding that the Biddeford police have secured the site and that the FBI is investigating.

You mean like when you discussed war plans in your easily-hackable Signal group chat?
Secretary of War Pete Hegseth@SecWar
To leak sensitive national defense information is to betray our warriors and put them in danger. That’s why the @DEPTOFWAR and @THEJUSTICEDEPT have created a joint task force to IDENTIFY AND PROSECUTE LEAKERS.

By the way—we’re still waiting on that refund for Trump’s illegal tariffs.

I am leading 80 Members of Congress urging @SecMullinDHS to extend protections for Salvadoran TPS holders. Ending TPS for El Salvador would hurt our economy, tear apart families, and send 200,000 lawfully present Salvadorans back to a country where they face potential human rights abuses.

At a packed town hall in Racine, Wisconsin this week hosted by @WeAct4progress and progressive champions talking about how to build a better future for our country. People are sick and tired of a status quo economy built for billionaires and corporate greed. If Republicans are too afraid to listen to their constituents—we’ll do their job for them.

ICE is using the same playbook of lies and propaganda for Lorenzo Salgado Araujo as it did for Renee Goode and Alex Pretti. I support the demands of the Salgado family for a full and transparent investigation. And I want every immigrant family to know that you are not alone and we will stand with you to demand justice and accountability.

People know the status quo has failed them time and time again.
Big change is coming.

Still the wrong files.

UNRESOLVED UAP REPORT, EAST CHINA SEA, 2025 👀

These days, it’s incredibly rare for Washington to do anything that helps people. This bipartisan affordable housing bill is one of the rare exceptions, but Trump won’t sign it unless Congress lets him rig the midterms.
He’s ALWAYS putting himself above the American People.
Headquarters@HQNewsNow
Trump refuses to sign the bipartisan affordable housing bill. "I will not sign the Housing Bill, which has been fully approved by Congress and sent to the White House"

Republicans gave these thugs a $170 BILLION slush fund to keep doing this shit.
Abolish ICE NOW!
