The Capitol is under attack by crazed Trump supporters and your first thought as a U.S. Senator is that it must be the work of the Iranians.
Words fail.
You had a chance to rid yourselves of this embarrassment once and for all, Maine, but you blew it.

Republican Sen. Susan Collins of Maine, a member of the Senate Intelligence Committee, in a new op-ed said she initially thought "the Iranians" were attacking when a mostly white, pro-Trump mob descended upon the Capitol on January 6.
"My first thought was that the Iranians had followed through on their threat to strike the Capitol, but a police officer took over the podium and explained that violent demonstrators had breached the entire perimeter of the Capitol and were inside," Collins wrote in the Bangor Daily News.
