The prominent civil rights firm, which will be co-representing Renee Good’s family alongside a Minneapolis attorney, will be launching a “civil investigation” into the Jan. 7 shooting, it stated, noting “transparency is essential in this case of national importance.”

As ICE continues to expand operations throughout the country, it's crucial that all Maine residents know their rights and how to find resources for support.

When brutal fascists descend on your town, you cannot stand between them and your residents and demand that everyone remain calm and peaceful. Rather, when brutal fascists descend on your town, you have to pick a side and commit fully.

I can’t leave a comment on this thread so I will post my question here: was he a proponent of right wing ideology or just taking part in theoretical discourse? I ask because of the titles.

The Maine State Song is required listening if you want to talk about ICE trying to invade Maine (or talk about us at all): www.youtube.com/watch?v=5PZv... #ICE #MEpolitics

Yes, but this isn’t just true for tribal lands. ICE is SUPPOSED to be legally limited by title 8 & jurisdictional agreements are necessary if they want full enforcement privileges. It‘s that because they are NOT title 18, it is also harder for them than real law enforcement re: anything tribal.

The fact that it is the Lakota and Noem is not surprising. They are trying to leverage the kidnapping to force tribal leaders to allow ICE enforcement privileges on tribal land because ICE does not have the wide law enforcement privileges title 18 affords actual law enforcement.

Yes, ICE is not title 18 law enforcement. They are civil title 8 immigration enforcement. They are legally allowed very narrowly defined enforcement mechanisms because they ARE NOT law enforcement. Partnering with local police or the FBI allows them to utilize title 18 law enforcement privileges.

I just can not believe how stupid they are. If there is anything that will flip the entire state blue - it’s being invaded (again). #Acadia #MEpolitics

Kind of. I was raised to believe Republican meant “leave us alone.” And “fuck the south.”

You should listen to our state song

Can we just hose Minneapolis down with water so it all freezes over and the ICE doinks just slip all over the place? What I’m saying is I have an insatiable appetite for video of ICE agents falling on their prodigious, Pillsbury Doughboy asses.

Ice trying to invade my home state in the dead of winter. They are fucking stupid as rocks.

There has never been a group of people more "from away" [derogatory] than the ICE goons about to invade Maine.

I’m glad some folks are seeing the fucking pattern.

Can‘t. He fled Maine Ted Cruz style. #Platner

Yup. He was tipped off. What a fucking ted cruz lil man baby #Platner

These cosplay cowards are trying to come to Acadia. Lol. Yall are fucking with the wrong french Americans. #AbolishIce

South Carolina people, have you heard this? Now we know for a fact why Lindsay Graham gave up all of his views and votes, and where he turned away from SC. Absolutely horrific: lisevoldeng.substack.com/p/dont-worry...

Health care is a human right — I’ve always believed that.

#Platner can‘t stop lying. All he does is lie. This was conducted by a group that offers pay-to-play. This ”poll” was funded by the Platner campaign. Bottom left - that is not a reputable source - it is a service purchased by the campaign.

platner defenders won't acknowledge he knew he had a nazi tattoo, joined the military because he likes killing (as a rich kid, he didn't need the money), has a platform that includes expanding the military, friendly with BIL Israeli intelligence, etc.

Graham Platner has secured the bag from ⚪️Lefties and now him and his “great sperm” will be heading to Norway…with their money💀😭😂😂😂😂 l swear to goodness we don’t need fiction writers anymore. Wheezing! I’m freaking wheezing! 😭💀😂 www.themainewire.com/2026/01/grah...

the thing about high-level politics — one reason why it's a terrible place to go if you're looking for catharsis or some kind of emotional or personal self-actualization — is that any opponent of MAGA is basically obligated to bite their tongue here and not only take the W here but *trumpet* it

Learn how to pronounce: ABOLISH ICE

Omfg - why did you make me see that

I ask myself this every fucking day

Workbench Strategy is an 11-month-old company hired by candidates to "help them win." This poll is part of Platner campaign strategy, which is not the same as a careful, established non-biased pollster's work to predict election results or positioning. www.linkedin.com/posts/john-h...

Like I gotta trust my candidate not to piss off to Europe for months for fertility treatment right after the start of campaign season, to just pull a random example out of nowhere

normal words from a normal wife who is NOT held hostage

Jfc - this is clearly a fucked up & possibly abusive relationship. She is being forced to put herself down for his ego and gratification in front of the entire world. I feel so sad for her. #Platner

The Trump Administration is pushing policies that hurt Maine people, and Susan Collins is helping him do it. Maine needs a Senator who will protect our health care, defend our rights, and put Maine people first — and I’m ready for the job.

there is more: Taking corporate funds & lying about it; photos of him with leading white nationalists in Maine at multiple events; Was recruited to run (it was not a random grassroots effort); Graphic sexist, racist, violent commentary within past five years; Signed up for war to kill. #Platner

Oh and there is one more thing I’ve been watching for years since I started reading DHS reports on white nationalists activities 9 years ago: white nationalists groups have been moving to Maine and rural areas in New England. It’s annoying as fuck. I don’t believe in coincidence. #Platner

The problem is that the child porn website is owned by the richest man in the world, who no one wants to pick a fight with, and even less so now that he's aligned with the president of the U.S., himself a maniacal sex criminal. Nothing gets fixed without breaking the political power of big money

What. The. Fuck. How is he allowed to talk - his cognitive decline is so extreme …

What the fuck is this demented old man talking about

I really want ppl w/o Minneapolis connections to understand You might've heard that Mpls public schools went hybrid bc so many families are in hiding. Well, a coworker just told me that today, during his kid's hybrid class, a kid's apt building was raided onscreen *Everyone has stories like this*

He dropped out because he wanted to fight in a war for fun. He has continued ties to black water; He had lots of DC connections more than he has Maine connections . #Platner
