By Any Means Necessary

Beasts of prey single out the young and sick to destroy. Democrats are doing the same thing, trying to pressure the Maine Pain, Susan Collins, into voting against confirming Justice Kavanaugh.

Say, this attack on Collins might well be bribery after all

The senator from Maine castigated progressive opponents for attempting to “bribe” her into voting against Brett Kavanaugh by promising not to spend the $1.3 million they’ve raised against her if she voted nay.

The “bribe” accusation sounded a little hyperbolic, but the Washington Post’s Eli Rosenberg writes that it might be more spot-on than one would think.

At least one ethics expert consulted by The Washington Post said that it may very well violate federal bribery statutes, which prohibit giving or offering anything of value to government officials in exchange for any acts or votes.
