EXCLUSIVE: Democratic state election chiefs have for months been meeting privately for planning exercises, including tabletop simulations, gaming out their response to expected election interference by President Donald Trump and his administration. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Great chance to learn more about Meshtastic if you're in the area. It never hurts to have more options for communicating with fellow Mainers across the state!

Humanity has been stripped from the virtual world: deliberately, maliciously. The goal is to make humans less human. Less imaginative and more callous; more desperate and less kind. Less demanding of authority, but ruthlessly demanding of ordinary people who hold neither leverage nor power. #RESIST

people in power don’t care about you stop supporting fascists by not purchasing their products (eg Apple), not subscribing to their services (AWS, Amazon), & not using their apps (X, FB, IG) Until people recognize the relationship between their pocketbook & their morality, this shit will continue

About a dozen workers detained in Skowhegan immigration raid, advocates say

Today, I announced that as Governor, I will introduce a bill that would require all law enforcement operating in Maine to have clearly identifiable badges, require a badge number to be visible, and to show their faces without masks, except in extreme circumstances.

Hey folks! Another scam campaign against Mainers appears to be ongoing. The BMV will not randomly text your phone about overdue fines alongside a super sketchy website link. Don’t be intimidated by the fake legal talk they try to scare you with. Stay safe out there!

The report should serve “as a stark warning to the American public.” The report warns DHS is “growing plans to build a heavily-armed domestic police force,” adding that federal immigration agents’ killings of Good & Pretti could only be the first of many tragedies. #RESIST #NonViolenceIsPower

I did not watch the SOTU last night because we all knew exactly how it would go. Instead, I was happy to see that Scott Harriman won in Lewiston. Its a good time to point out the importance of other local elections in Maine as well. Especially county commissioner elections! (1/2) #mepolitics

"The DOJ's selective redactions make the Epstein victims relive their pain on a national level. For years, they had to suffer alone. And now they have to suffer alone but with everyone watching, which is the worst feeling you can have. My heart breaks for them." www.youtube.com/watch?v=uNZs...

Yes! This was an important win in the Maine State Legislature. Congrats to Rep. Elect Scott Harriman in Maine State House District 94! #MEpolitics

THIS should be the major story of the day, of the week, of the year, and should start proceedings to #ImpeachConvictRemove and imprison, but . . . seems the powers that be are all in cahoots. America's faith in our leaders, on both side of the aisle, is dwindling fast.

STATE OF THE UNION ALTERNATIVES I sure a hell won’t watch or listen to Trump lie and ramble his way through another SOTU. In fact, I plan to be off line and away from all media through the whole damned thing. Here are two alternatives, though, if you’re interested in other takes. #SOTU #RESIST

National parks are understaffed, underfunded & under attack. A new poll shows 86% of Westerners say cuts to NPS funding is a serious problem. But a tiny group of DC insiders who wouldn't last a day in the wilderness want to dismantle the natural heritage that belongs to us all.

Good article by @billmckibben.bsky.social on why we should insist (I would say demand) a moratorium on building AI data centers… #DataCenterMoratoriumNow #BeforeItsTooLate

“Today, the people of Merrimack and all of New Hampshire proved that organized, local voices are more powerful than a federal agency’s ruthless expansion,” she said. “This is a victory for us and all of New England but it is not the end of the fight.” www.bostonglobe.com/2026/02/24/m...

For all these reasons, I’m not going to watch Trump’s State of the Union. I recommend that you don’t, either. Plus, if the ratings for his speech are low, it has the added benefit of driving him nuts. So I say let's boycott the State of the Union. It’s the least we can do.

NEW POLL: We’re within 1 point of Paul LePage in the latest poll. This campaign — powered by working people, not corporate PACs — can win in November. If you believe Maine deserves leadership that fights for you, share this and help us build the momentum. #MEPolitics

Interesting piece, starting w/the violent threats from Black Lion Party, seguing to considerable mutual aid & community organizing efforts by Minneapolis neighbors, and that the right simply can't fathom that all this resistance is ad-hoc, neighbors helping neighbors, not big money funded. #RESIST

Angus King is not a Democrat. He's an independent who caucuses with Democrats While this is a subtle difference, his decision to boycott Trump's State of the Union speech therefore means a just little bit more

Angus King: ‘I cannot in good conscience’ attend Trump’s State of the Union

This is the way:

Let’s be clear — no funding should be used to track or target people for exercising their protected First Amendment rights, as this administration is doing. The Senate must enact concrete measures to rein in Donald Trump, Kristi Noem, and ICE’s abuses of power.

Have friends and fam in/around BALTIMORE, MARYLAND? Indications are ICE is stocking up and staging vehicles in prep for a surge in the area. #SupportBaltimore #ORGANIZE #RESIST #OPPOSE #NonViolenceIsPower #EveryEffortCounts #GetInvolved Details on potential #BaltimoreSurge here:

www.pressherald.com/2026/02/23/m... No one is above the law -- not ICE and not Donald Trump. I'm proud of the bravery Mainers are showing in resistance. I will always stand with them and I am glad to see they are taking action to hold this lawless administation accountable.
