We’re investigating how the FBI handled it behind the scenes.

“A surprisingly easy, double-digit victory of Dane County Circuit Court Judge Susan Crawford, the liberal candidate in Tuesday's pivotal state Supreme Court race, was driven in large part by voter revulsion at Musk's premise that democracy is for sale.”

Here's how we get Medicare for All done:
Make Medicare whole (no one can keep all the parts straight!)
Include vision, dental, and hearing.
Begin extending to more people, starting with children.
We arrive at Medicare for All, which means great Medicare for everyone.

Susan Collins is always horrified by the predictable results of her own vote, which means Mainers who genuinely care about Susan Collins should elect Troy Jackson as he won’t vote for things that wind up upsetting Susan Collins, unlike Susan Collins
I think something to consider here is that Collins voted to confirm Russ Vought as OMB Director despite the fact that he said a billion times that he thought Trump had a constitutional right to illegally impound funds, and now she’s doing shocked Pikachu reactions.
