Of interest to the Voters of #Maine, from the linked Substack and video and the #Dem candidate for that seat on #Nov3rd:

@troyjackson207.bsky.social

Republican US Senator #SusanCollins, up for re-election this fall, in center of alleged #Bribery

Screenshot of @adamkinzinger.substack.com linked article text: In late 2019, Susan Collins was staring down the reality of losing her seat in the U.S. Senate. To cover for a poor political environment, Scott Reed, an ally who ran her Super PAC, sat down at Corner Bakery near the Capitol with three executives from the Hawaiian defense contractor Navatek. The year before, Collins had helped the company land a Navy research contract in Maine. Now her fundraiser went asking for half a million dollars. The boldness and audacity of these people is startling. Here’s the problem, among many. Federal law prohibits corporations and federal government contractors from making contributions in connection with federal elections. And volleying a donation to a Senator that coincides with a government contract in-hand is subject to scrutiny as bribery. So the company’s CEO, a man named Martin Kao, said he’d set up a shell company to hide the money. The PAC chairman replied by email: “very smart. Thanks for doing this” and so Kao named it the “Society of Young Women Scientist and Engineers.” However, he forgot the letter “S” at the end of “scientists” on the filing. That typo tipped off the Campaign Legal Center, a watchdog group, to the $150,000 that Kao passed through to the PAC.

How long will it be ‘til I see this eye-popping revelation of #corruption in my other #Maine -stream #media feeds? #SCOTUS decree on #bribery in favor of the political bourgeois seems a bit coincidental if you ask me. Disagree? Feel free. #SusanCollins #corruption www.huffpost.com/entry/fbi-an...

Senator Susan Collins Was Under Investigation By FBI for Bribery #SusanCollins #FBI #bribery #Trump #politics

#SusanCollins was being investigated for major #bribery by the #FBI when #Zionist #realDonaldTrump stopped the investigation

FBI anti-corruption squad was circling Susan Collins, and Lindsey Graham was next on their target list — until Trump got in the way and shut the squad down.

The evidence is clear - Collins is a significant player among many trading cash for contracts.

#FBI pursued a #bribery investigation involving defense contractor Martin Kao, campaign donations and Sen. Susan #Collins. Agents sought to expand probe in 2024, but investigation was halted after Trump’s return and changes at #DOJ /FBI. Collins denies wrongdoing.

"The Eh Team"

A washed-up bounty hunter, a TV private eye, a comedian/wannabe politician, and a disgraced cop head to Manila to hunt down fugitive lobbyist Tobi Solidum. What could go wrong? (Everything.)

#art #cartoon #digitalart #editorialcartoon #illustration #corruption #bribery #hawaii

My latest editorial cartoon imagines a scenario that is equal parts absurd and, somehow, perfectly fitting for Hawaiʻi: sending the "Eh Team" to retrieve Tobi Solidum from the Philippines. The Eh Team, of course, is a play on the A-Team—that classic 1980s action show about a ragtag crew of wrongly accused special forces soldiers who solve problems with explosions and improbable plans. The cartoon features Dog the Bounty Hunter, Magnum P.I. (the Tom Selleck version), Bu Laia Hill, and—because truth is stranger than fiction—Riley Bandy, an actual investigator for the Honolulu Prosecutor's office who has been in the news recently for reasons we'll get to. They're posed in classic action-hero formation, with the Manila skyline behind them and the giant, looming head of Tobi Solidum hovering above like a final boss in a video game. The text overlay reads: "The Eh Team: Thrilla in Manila." Like all good jokes, it contains a kernel of truth about the state of governance in Hawaiʻi. Read more at patreon.com/willcaron

If the Dems win in November and take back both houses of congress, I will send Trump a check for $5000.

What does it say about Ken Paxton that his OWN staff called the FBI on him for #bribery (& illegally fired for it) & that one of Paxton's own defense attorneys is endorsing James Talarico for US Senate for Texas?

Trump's claim to issue $5,000 if Republicans win mid-terms is considered bribery under United States law.
