    she did not complete her head and neck surgical residency at Oregon Health and Science University, is not board-certified, and does not have an active medical license

    This is a huge red flag. She fucked up and killed someone in residency.

    Don’t worry, Maine’s senator will look grumpy and then vote yes, fucking over millions of people and destroying our healthcare system (even more). But Maine will re-elect their Senator anyway because… They love sending their best, I guess?

      Maine loves to be moderate about their sanity and empathy, Susan Collins is no exception!

      Graham Platner gives me some hope though.

      Going through med school but then not completing residency or boards screams silver spoon… I’ve seen a lot of idiots get through school and come out idiots on the other side.
