Collins served Georgia’s 27th district for one term, and Georgia’s 9th district for two terms. But in 2020 he opted to run for the Senate. He lost in the primary election to former Sen. Kelly Loeffler (R-Ga.), who then lost to Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-Ga.). Rep. Andrew Clyde (R-Ga.) replaced Collins in the House.

“During my time in Congress, I was able to accomplish a great deal for the folks that I served,” Collins said in a tweet.

Now, he plans to remain involved in politics. “I do plan on staying involved in shaping our conservative message to help Republicans win back the house and the Senate,” the former congressman said.

Sara Carter joined Sean Hannity from the picket line after President Joe Biden’s “brief” few minutes of support with the United Auto Workers strike in Michigan. Biden spent a “whopping 12 minutes with those UAW workers outside the plant today” said Carter.

“And I can tell you the time I spent with hundreds of workers walking up and down that line it was stunning to see how they had turned on the administration none of them actually bought the visit they thought it was more political than it was supportive” she added about her discussions with workers on the ground.

“It’s all about votes, trying to get votes” said one worker. “It’s a show” said another. Individuals also lamented “they didn’t forget about us During the pandemic. We were building cars and trucks, we were working” only to be left behind now.

Carter said it was evident that immediately after the brief show of “support” Biden immediately left, and got straight on his plane to head to Silicon Valley for a fundraiser.
