Keith Edwards discusses how Republican Senator Susan Collins was met with boos and chants of “shame!” during a ribbon-cutting in Searsport, Maine, as constituents voiced frustration over her long absence of town halls and controversial votes on Supreme Court nominees. He notes that meanwhile, Democrat Graham Platner—a Marine and Army veteran turned oyster farmer—has officially launched a campaign to challenge Collins in the 2026 Senate race, framing her as out of touch with working Mainers.

Here's my response to the shooting today that killed two children: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pVZUmF7jTxI
SHE HELPED PUT TRUMP IN POWER- VOTE HER OUT
Another trumped up guy with no experience or education
God yes get rid of that performative hack Collins
Can you say term limits and age cap
Clean your desk out suesan and go home
78 is too damn old , this guy looks good. Hope he is for real
I smell a trojan horse MAGA Republican.
Why they voted for after not doing town halls is beyond me. Chalk it up to stupidity.
Democrats bus protestors in. This gives the appearance of unrest when in reality Democrats get stomped by real voters in real elections.
But, she keeps getting voted in agian and again!!
Platner for President!
We need new younger people in government. These old people are only in it for themselves.
It'll be so nice to get rid of her.
💙💙💙💙💙💙
Go, Graham! Bye, bye Susan. Good riddance.
The people booing her are probably Republicans. They think she is a Rino. Mills is a good person but too old. It is time to have younger people like Platner take over and do some of the heavy lifting.
Collins doesn't care. You can tell by looking at her. Giving her the option to speak and be heard AT ALL is a mistake. The crowd should have continued to shame and boo her. She has nothing of value to contribute, so the people in her state need to stop giving her ANY opportunity. How many times do they want her to prove who she is?
Maine has had plenty of opportunities to get rid of this useless, pearl clutching, person.
Does she seem concerned?
It's time for the working class to take back our country! I wish I could vote for you sir, but I'm sure the people of Maine will do the right thing!
I'm furious no one ever brings up her health issues. Why are they hidden from the public? Why aren't they ever addressed? Imagine if Joe Biden had profusely shook the way she has for twenty years. She is not physically fit, or mentally capable for the office. This is a career politician too hooked on greed, power, and money. In reality she should be in a personal care facility.
Power to the people!!!!
They need term limits, and age limits. We need to get these dinosaurs out of office that are stuck in the 1950's in there thinking, and it's not where the world is any longer.
GRAHAM PLATNER… The way he comes across, I think he's capable of switching sides within the first four weeks of his election.
I love that guy! I love it when a politician tells the truth for a change.
Her generation just can’t let it go and fade into the sunset.
