Seventy billion dollars after she doesn't regret spending for, you know, somebody that got murdered

Overstated

Why this verdict View evidenceHide evidence
Why we checked itSpecific dollar figure ($70 billion) attributed to Senator Collins's spending decisions — verifiable whether Collins supported or voted for spending of this magnitude related to ICE or immigration enforcement
What we foundThe $70 billion figure and Collins's failure to express regret for the ICE funding vote are substantially supported, but the claim conflates two separate 'no regret' threads (the ICE funding vote and the Kavanaugh vote), and Collins disputed that the full $70 billion was for ICE alone.
