Collins complained that “everybody ignores” her vote to convict Trump in his second impeachment trial.

“What bigger break could there be?” she asked. “It is never enough.”

While Collins touted her breaks with Trump, she was also a pivotal vote for key parts of his agenda. She provided a decisive vote to confirm Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh in 2018, despite sexual assault allegations that he denied. And though she voted against Trump’s Medicaid-cutting “Big Beautiful Bill” on final passage, she was a key vote to advance debate on it.

Organizing. Strike. Revolution.

For someone who would rather have “Socialist Anarchy” rather than a communist end state, you are pretty reliant on capitalist reforms that, in your own words, republicans can strip away within 6 years, so I ask again: How are you going to achieve this when legislation is stripped by oligarchs?

You’re describing a reality where you rely on fascist overlords to give up power based upon no authority expressed and legal regulation and literally saying “if we’re lucky”. What an incredibly ignorant and weak mindset to have when talking about others rights. “If we’re lucky”… Give me a break. We aren’t lucky. Jefferies is basically telling you as a Blue Voter to give up the idea of free healthcare.

No dude. If we force them. We can not rely on luck. Express authority over your leaders. What you’re describing isn’t even socialist or Anarchist policy, it’s just capitalist reform.

    Organizing. Strike. Revolution. is a slogan, not a plan. How can you demand from others what you're not willing to do yourself? What is your plan.

    Thousands of people just did years of work to get elected to offices across the spectrum of government and you're sitting at a keyboard telling them it's not good enough.

    What is your plan besides that wishful thinking non plan you posted? What ideas do you have to help them? Do you have plans to work with them? Are you going to collaborate with anyone? Are you going to organize? Where's your people, your war chest, your logistical support, your supply chains, your plan.

    These thousands of people had a plan, they organized, they protested, they got elected and now they're gearing up to do the job.

    what are you doing besides yelling on the Internet?

    oh and one follow up question, what the fuck are you going to be doing?
