Thirty years ago, Susan Collins promised Maine voters she’d serve only two terms. Now she’s a multimillionaire asking them for a sixth. Her current net worth is estimated to be roughly $6.8 million. Not bad for a Senate salary of $174,000 per year.

🚨Holy crap! Ken Paxton partied on New Year’s Eve 2024 in Dubai with his girlfriend and two U.S. fugitives (Anosh Ahmed and Sameer Suhail) charged in healthcare fraud/embezzlement schemes. Ahmed, a major donor, gave about $190,000 to Paxton’s campaign — including after his indictment.

Barack Obama is back in his role as Democrats’ closer-in-chief. He just cut ads for 24 Senate & gubernatorial campaigns—targeting races where he can help move persuadable voters. At 57% favorability, Obama is the most popular living president. Expect to see much more of him before Election Day. 💙
