Susan Collins sinks to a whole new disgusting low

Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

The thing about taking a bribe – even if it’s merely a corrupt one and not an illegal one – is that you don’t want to be too obvious about it. Republican Senator Susan Collins voted to acquit Donald Trump, even though she since basically admitted that her rationale at the time has turned out to be BS. Now she’s bragging about the millions of dollars that came her way as a result of acquitting Trump.

Susan Collins tweeted this: “Great news! 19 Housing Authorities in Maine have been awarded more than $9.5 million to preserve & modernize affordable housing units that serve individuals with disabilities & low-income individuals and families.” Uh, obvious much? Collins is bragging about the millions of dollars that have suddenly been thrown her state’s way almost immediately after she voted to acquit Trump. Responses to Collins were anything but positive:

It turns out Republican Senator Lisa Murkowski pulled the same crap for the same reason, and also turned around and tried to brag about it.
