Mark Carney, Prime Minister of Canada, saying what most all Americans wish their president had the grace to say. Poll after poll showing our pres sinking lower and lower in approval ratings across the board. #ORGANIZE #RESIST #OPPOSE #NonViolenceIsPower

Hungarians showing how to win big in an unfair election: organize AND protest AND vote AND demand profound change.

Viktor Orban has conceded in Hungary. After 16 years, he is no longer in power. Add that to a long list of failures involving JD Vance. The future is still very uncertain, but I hope Magyar gives Hungarians a real shot at a better life. And perhaps the EU may be a bit more united as well.

This has been very clear in Minnesota.

This is a real fundraiser, for a family that lives the next town over from me. Her husband was snatched by ICE while driving to Portland, when they started f*cking "Catch of the Day" in Maine. Please help if you can, and share anyway. gofund.me/adaff57eb

We’re launching a new campaign to organize against proposed DHS warehouses across the country. To kick things off, we’re joining a national day of action on April 25 to oppose Trump’s mass detention agenda. If you’re ready to be part of this fight, we hope you will join our first training call.

TELL CONGRESS: Reject Stephen Miller’s mass surveillance agenda! Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act expires on Apr. 20. The law has been used to conduct millions of warrantless searches of Americans’ phone calls, text messages and emails. #RESIST #OPPOSE & SIGN the PETITION:

The pro-democracy movement is already flexing its power in the streets and the voting booth. Now we need to harness our collective power as workers and consumers to demand an end to the oligarch-enabled Trump regime. Join us for the nationwide day of economic disruption on May Day: maydaystrong.org

Remember the 60s & wearing armbands in support of the Vietnam Moratorium? I do, wore my own, and think this is a great idea, especially so "those who can’t take off from work or school, or who are retired so have no jobs to leave, can show support as well." Anti-war solidarity. #MayDay #RESIST

The link for the Maine US Senate debate (forum) yesterday is now available. There were quite a few questions that covered a lot of ground. Please consider watching. Especially if you haven’t heard much from David Costello. #mepolitics vimeo.com/1182357929?s...

OTD in 1861, shots were fired on Fort Sumter, starting the American Civil War. @hcrichardson.bsky.social explains in today's Letters what happened in the fight over principles in the Declaration of Independence. Today, in America, we wonder where attacks on the U.S. Constitution will stop.

Here are some black and white numbers that back up all the economist-speak you hear about wealthy people and corporations paying their fair share. If they can allow a big corporations to fund all these superpacs, like they have "free speech", they can be expected to an equitable share of taxes.

I've studied so many concentration camps through history that held vulnerable people in just this kind of crowded squalor. You demonize people, you demand more arrests, this is what you get. It already has its own budget and its own momentum, and is on track to go much further, unless we stop it.

Maine needs to protect expectant women and newborns | Opinion

Because they know the Senate is actually in play for Democrats. 🚨 Republicans announce $342M blitz in key 2026 Senate races.

men can’t understand what it’s like for women to see story after story after story of women being victims of sexual violence in a culture where it’s routine; what it’s like to live in a world that is fundamentally hostile to our existence. it’s a wonder we leave the fucking house, let alone thrive.

There is something you can do about all of this — make your plans for May 1. This country needs a united show of power, energy, and hope. indivisible.org/events/may-d...

We must not let this die. Thank you for the reminder

Glad this is happening, and am looking forward to what each candidate has to say. See page 7 of today’s calendar (in comments under my pinned post) for details. #MEpolitics

New interview about my book THE LAST AMERICAN ROAD TRIP! I actually did this interview in 2025, but the magazine printed it yesterday for the paperback release. www.stlmag.com/culture/a-co...

I’ve never backed down from a fight, and I won’t start now.  I’ve spent my life working and delivering for Maine people — I know how to win statewide, and I know I’ve got what it takes to beat Susan Collins.

Working multiple jobs is not enough anymore. It's not enough to put a roof over your head, put food on the table and put your kids through college. I refuse to believe that Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos deserve their billions and my neighbors don't deserve the life their parents had.

Here's hoping Orbán loses in a big way, sending a message 'round the world that We, the People of most every nation are fed up. #ORGANIZE #RESIST #OPPOSE #NonViolenceIsPower #EveryEffortCounts #GetInvolved #VOTE

Looking forward to seeing folks at the debate in Topsham today for the US Senate primary in Maine. Having candidates get on stage and talk about their ideas for the future under a bit of pressure is vital to developing a strong democracy. It's also just generally good for sharing ideas! #mepolitics

Historian HC Richardson on the shift in world politics & public opinion/pushback towards Trump, his increasing madness, & the deep erosion of trust in America stability. #ORGANIZE #RESIST #OPPOSE "Choose hope over fear, resistance over complacency, unity over division, and peace over war." ~Bruce

Bruce Springsteen making a stand, calling Americans to choose "hope over fear, democracy over authoritarianism, the rule of law over lawlessness, ethics over unrivaled corruption, resistance over complacency, truth over lies, unity over division, and peace over war.” #ORGANIZE #RESIST Listen:

What was Trump focused on today? Building a giant triumphal arch in DC then jetting out of town for a high dollar fundraiser and golf.

The warehousing of human beings is a hallmark of authoritarian regimes. Trump’s regime is actively scouting, purchasing, and planning to convert 23 warehouses nationwide into new detention and processing facilities. This would massively expand ICE’s capacity for detentions.

1/2 The DNC’s 𝗟𝗼𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗟𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿 𝗟𝗶𝘁𝗲 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 shows you how to engage with infrequent voters and have effective conversations with friends, family, neighbors, and online communities before the midterms.

Good framing of the job ahead for the resistance efforts in America. Worth a close listen, then listen again. There's momentum in opposing this admin, there's fracturing in MAGA, there's continued pressure that must be made. #ORGANIZE #RESIST #OPPOSE #NonViolenceIsPower

Turns out the war in Iran actually did accomplish something: it tripled the inflation rate, in the space of a month. Every single Congressperson who allowed this to happen should lose their seat, with Susan Collins at the very top of that list.

New inflation numbers just came out, and they’re clear as day. Trump is screwing us with his foolish, illegal war in Iran. Food, fuel, and energy prices are through the roof. Mainers deserve better than this.

Yes. . .Vance goes to help Orbán's re-election, helps it tank instead, reports say, and now Orbán might lose? Doesn't seem powers that be will let that happen, though if it does...man oh man. All very interesting. #WorldPolitics #MeddlesomeJD #KeepAmericaOutOfOther'sPolitics

🚨 Trump just promised his staff mass pardons before he leaves office. You don’t promise pardons unless you’re planning crimes. We must stop this lawless president.

We all know there is big money being spent on Maine’s US Senate race…here are the details of what’s being spent on Maine’s race for governor. #MEpolitics #MaineGovernor

How do you lower costs, expand coverage, and how do you pay for it? By taxing the ultra wealthy, doubling the property tax on second homes in Maine, and funding community and school based health centers. These are just some ways I am going to be the governor for a more healthy and affordable Maine.

The inflation numbers today are terrible. Particularly because of Trump's war of choice against Iran. But don't worry, the admin has time to campaign for Viktor Orban! Autocrats really stick together huh? Stop the autocrats. Vote out their enablers like Susan Collins. It's time! #mepolitics
