Sen. Susan Collins
Sen. Susan Collins@SenatorCollins·
Today, I cast my 10,000th consecutive roll call vote, extending the unbroken voting streak that I have maintained throughout my entire Senate service. Mainers are known for their work ethic, and they deserve a Senator who works just as hard for them. Growing up in Aroostook County, I learned the value of hard work, perseverance, and honoring your commitments. I am proud to bring those values with me to the Senate every day. Representing the State of Maine is the honor of a lifetime, and I will continue to serve with the diligence and responsibility that Mainers deserve.

@MeriwetherFarms @tbpn @GrainStats We have never had an Ag Secretary this accessible to the public. It’s a big job. Have agreed with your stance on many things but you have a chance to do more than post. Do it.

@oshane @McJuggerNuggets this says it all. the murder of the child is really because of laziness and selfishness. too lazy to take care of an imperfect child. too selfish to take care of an imperfect child. Let me tell you something...they're all imperfect.

This week, my wife and I made the very difficult decision to terminate the pregnancy due to Trisomy 21. The choice was not made lightly. We really appreciate all of the personal stories that you guys shared with us, especially the unconditional support we received from fans with no matter what we decided. I know some of you may be very disappointed to hear this news. We are devastated. This has been extremely traumatic for both of us, especially Ashley. She underwent the procedure earlier this week and is on the mend. Thankfully, everything went smoothly, but emotionally we are drained. Trisomy 21, also known as Down Syndrome, is caused by an extra chromosome. It is caused by an error in cell division, like a glitch. The odds of a baby having it is 1 in 1000. When I first confronted this news, I was shocked but optimistic. If they’re a little slow intellectually, then we’ll make it work. I signed on to be a parent, come what may…but I just didn’t fully understand what Down Syndrome entailed. Once we made it public, it became clear that MOST people don’t know what Down Syndrome entails (and no, it’s not the same as Autism): 50% of babies with DS have heart defects. 75% will have hearing challenges. Over 50% will have vision problems. Impaired immune function, developmental disabilities, learning disabilities, delayed physical development, poor muscle tone, structural issues with face, decreased lifespan, etc…Sadly, the list is long, feel free to look it up…Down Syndome isn’t a “blessing”, it is objectively shitty from a health perspective. I didn’t realize just how rough it is for the child, let alone the family…more often than not, they would be fully dependent on others for the rest of their life. The miscarriage risk is also close to 50%, which made matters worse…they may never see the light of day and it puts Ashley further at risk. We spoke with doctors, friends, family and genetic counselors and learned that up to 90% of women terminate their pregnancy after learning the baby has Trisomy 21. This was WAY higher than I expected, I thought it would be lower given that I hear so many say they kept or would keep the baby. I believe that’s because most terminations happen privately, it feels shameful. A lot of judgment being cast. You never think you’d be in this type of situation until it happens to you and then things change. To all of my fans who have weighed in on this topic who have Autism, Down Syndrome or any other conditions…we appreciate you. You matter a lot and we’re glad you’re here. I commend you and your families for having the strength and courage to push forward. As for us, we made a difficult decision that we believe in the long-run will be beneficial for our family. Thankfully, we had a choice. It will take a little time to move on, but we are excited to try again in the future and hopefully have a better outcome. Love you guys & thank you for understanding. ❤️

Earlier today while working on the farm, my phone began going crazy because of a post made by a member of my comms team. The post was stupid, hurtful and a complete distraction from my America First focus. The employee has been reprimanded.

This is actually true. When it comes to Trump, things always just sort of work out in the end. I believe this is because God has chosen Trump for this moment to save the nation. It's not just Trump. It's God's plan. Why Trump? Read the Bible. God always chooses men like Trump. He loves a redemption arc.

@moviecentralx Still the most haunting line of the series: Christopher to Tony: "I'm gonna kill MYself? The way you eat, you'll have a f---ing heart attack before you're 50." Which is exactly what happened.

Let’s math the math. Youngest of family with 11 children. Add in mom and dad, that makes 13 in the nuclear family. There was the loss of 3, dad and ‘closest’ two brothers. That makes for a remaining family of 10. Yet, somehow, only the two, mom and Stephan were left to ‘lean’ on one another. That happened to other 8 family members. Were they all slackers or what? Cut me a break with this load of BS.

On September 11, 1974, a ten-year-old boy named Stephen Colbert lost his father and two of his closest brothers, Paul and Peter, when Eastern Air Lines Flight 212 crashed into a cornfield hillside just three miles from the Charlotte, North Carolina airport. Only 13 of the 82 people on board survived. In a single afternoon, the youngest of eleven children in a warm, intellectually curious Catholic household went from a boy surrounded by laughter and big family energy to a kid sitting in a suddenly very quiet, very dark home with only his grieving mother for company. The two leaned on each other in a way that most people never experience. Lorna Colbert held herself together not out of bitterness, but out of a fierce, quiet love, and Stephen watched that and absorbed it into his bones. He later said his mother was never bitter, just broken, and that her example became the blueprint he carried for the rest of his life. For years, though, the real weight of the loss stayed buried. He floated through prep school detached, unbothered by the things other kids cared about, because nothing felt quite real anymore. It wasn't until he went off to Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia that the grief finally cracked through, and it hit him hard. He dropped from 185 pounds down to 135 during his freshman year, barely eating, barely functioning, consumed by a sadness he had held at bay for nearly a decade. But something remarkable happened on the other side of that collapse. He found theater. He found improvisation. He found that making people laugh was actually a way to connect with human suffering rather than run from it. He transferred to Northwestern University, stumbled into the world of Second City, and slowly built himself into one of the most empathetic, genuinely funny voices in American media. He later reflected that losing his father and brothers gave him an awareness of other people's pain that allowed him to love more deeply and connect more honestly with what it means to be human. That is not a small thing. That is everything. Via Chronicles Through Lenses

George H.W. Bush kept his assets in a blind trust, as did Bill Clinton. Neither Obama nor Biden traded stocks or bonds while in office. 3,700 trades is probably more than all the trades of all the presidents until now. And he is trading stocks that are affected by his decisions. A walking conflict of interest, at the least, and perhaps insider trading. Just as members of Congress should not be able to trade stocks, so too the president. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

@ZodBless @Dookyk @AAkooJ Well it was said with ironic humour. Something the Beatles and the British know a thing or three about. But people age in different ways. Tony Bennett could still sing in his 90s. And yes I retyped this.

Hantavirus can cause a serious pulmonary syndrome with a high fatality rate. Clearly a scroll of social media shows a mix of us all learning more in real time. Infectious diseases and critical illness are humbling. I’m glad to see a push towards mandatory quarantine.
