by approving funds to keep ICE in tact, I see the number of her supporters dropping like flies. I bet she still will not show up, why would she change now? We know what and who she is and it ain't pretty. TRAITOR!!!!!!! Storm HER office and home on Bastille Day tomorrow! STAND UP, FIGHT BACK!!!!!

"Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) voted to advance a $70 billion budget plan to continue funding ICE and Border Patrol. Her vote was cast as part of a legislative package to prevent a partial government shutdown, which was heavily debated and criticized by local groups".

a distinction that matters greatly ? stopdiggin 9 hrs ago #34

Platner was not a DSA member and the Maine DSA did not explicitly endorse him Celerity 8 hrs ago #35

Platner was recruited to run by DSA members, and was endorsed by Bernie Sanders. SunSeeker 3 hrs ago #42

that is not what was asked, nt Celerity 2 hrs ago #44

Yes it was. Platner was for all intents and purposes a DSA candidate. SunSeeker 1 hr ago #45

No, that was not the question asked by the other poster. Celerity 1 hr ago #46

The point is, Platner didn't need to be a "card carrying member of DSA" to be a DSA candidate. SunSeeker 18 min ago #47
