#UselessSusanCollins

2025-06-18

This from Team #BernieSanders. Seems there are some folks who will be allowed into #SusanCollins' offices in #AugustaME and #PortlandME. Time of the event sent to those who pre-register. Not crazy about that, but if you're interested, here is the email... (And yeah, I'm banned from Susan Collins' offices anyways.)

"#Trump’s “#BigBeautifulBill” makes their agenda clear:

"If you are rich and powerful, you are ENTITLED to more. You deserve massive tax breaks and hand outs that will help you get richer.

"But if you are working class or poor, you are entitled to NOTHING.

"This bill has passed the House, but the fight’s not over. The Senate will vote on the bill later this month. If we organize together, we still have time to stop it.

"This Friday and Monday, people across your state are showing up at their Senators’ offices to say: Vote NO on the Trump Budget.

"Please mark your calendar and sign up using the links below to join us at an event near you:

VISIT AT SENATOR COLLINS’ AUGUSTA OFFICE
Friday, 6/20; time TBA
SIGN UP for more info!

VISIT AT SENATOR COLLINS’ PORTLAND OFFICE
Friday, 6/20; time TBA
SIGN UP for more info!

Not near an in-person action?

Then we need you to commit to call your Senator on Friday, June 20 and demand they vote no. Sign up here and we’ll send you everything you need to make that call count:

Of course the ONLY one to respond to my concerns about the #BigUglyBill was #Maine Senator #AngusKing. #UselessSusanCollins has been SILENT!

‘Listen to the people’: Thousands demonstrate across #Maine for national day of action against #Trump

#Mainers rallied in over 20 towns against mass firings and cuts to federal programs

By: Lauren McCauley - April 5, 2025

"'The power of the people is more important and stronger than the people in power.'

"That was what U.S. Sen. Angus King told the thousands of people who gathered on Congress Street in Portland on Saturday to protest the administration of President Donald Trump. [#UselessSusanCollins wasn't there. Nothing new...]

"According to organizers, 3,000 people attended the #PortlandME rally, which was just one of more than 20 events held across Maine as part of national '#HandsOff!' actions to demonstrate widespread opposition to the gutting of the federal government spearheaded by billionaire advisor #ElonMusk.

"The town mall in #BrunswickME, where over 500 people rallied, was a sea of homemade signs. Maine Senate President Mattie Daughtry, who represents the district, was among the crowd and noted it was one of the few times in her life she’s seen 'this many people gathered for something like this.'

"The message, she said, is 'to listen to the people.'

"'A lot of the signs that I saw were about ‘Hands off our Social Security,’ ‘Hands off our libraries,’ ‘Hands off our health care,’ I think what we’re saying is, you can’t completely unravel the fabric of our society without people noticing.'"

#Maine protesters call out #SenatorSusanCollins for not holding a town hall in 25 years

Story by Allyson Lapierre, WGME, March 16, 2025

PORTLAND, Maine (WGME) -- "Dozens of protesters took to Congress Square Park in #PortlandME on Sunday, calling on Senator Susan Collins to hold a town hall for her constituents.

"The group #IndivisibleGreaterPortland says Senator Collins has not held a town hall for Mainers in over 25 years. So, on Sunday, the group held a town hall without her.

"Participants voiced concerns about federal cuts from #DOGE, #tariffs, and Trump's talk about taking over #Greenland and Gaza.

"'People are scared. People have questions. People need answers. People don't understand what's going on. Things are just moving too fast, and they're out of touch with their elected officials who basically are sending form letters and not explaining their votes,' Marie Follayttar, who attended the event, said.

"CBS13 reached out to Senator Collins for a response but did not hear back."

#UniversityOfMaine’s #USDA funding restored

by WABI News Desk
Published: Mar. 12, 2025 at 9:05 PM EDT

Maine (WABI) - "Senator #SusanCollins announced Wednesday that the University of Maine’s funding from the U.S. Department of Agriculture has been restored.

"On Monday the University received notice that funding from the USDA was paused.

"According to UMS, the notice stated the pause was temporary while the USDA evaluated potential follow-up actions related to prospective Title VI (6) or Title IX (9) violations.

"Collins released at statement saying:

'This USDA funding is critically important not only to the University of Maine, but to our farmers and loggers, as well as to the many people who work in #Maine’s #agriculture, #aquaculture, and #forestry industries. Now that funding has been restored, the work that the University does in partnership with the many people and communities who depend on these programs can continue.'"

@Darkphoenix Gods, she's been in power since before I moved to Maine! She might have done some good here and there (along with #OlympiaSnowe), but I trusted Olympia way more than #UselessSusanCollins . And don't get me started on "Uncle #AngusKing"! I used to ask him the hard questions in person when he was the governor of #Maine and I was a journalist.

@Darkphoenix So, TBH, I've perfected her saying that phrase and others. It's an ongoing joke in our house. "That's sexist!" "That's not what he meant." "It was a long time ago." are some of the catchphrases I use when we see her on TV.

@Darkphoenix I looked #UselessSusanCollins up on #OpenSecrets. She is totally in the pockets of the #MilitaryIndustrialComplex!

#QuoteOfTheDay! From 2018!

"But for [#SusanCollins], a #prochoice #Republican, the decision to put a man accused of sexual assault on the Supreme Court runs a political — and personal — risk. For her, it comes down to believing that #Kavanaugh will uphold #RoeVsWade." SUCKER!!!

Well gee... #UselessSusanCollins said that #Trump / #Musk cuts could be a "big problem". Maybe you should have had a backbone against some of his #SCOTUS and other appointments, eh?
