Lots of USA loving people gathered around the country today… No Kings Protest Rally! Lots of Patriotic Love and Music… including Noel Paul Stookey (from Peter, Paul and Mary)in Ellsworth ME. #NoKings #RiseUp #resistance

Feels quaint, almost cliché, to say this about a Trump action, but just for the record: This is all illegal, the President can't simply disregard the laws passed and agencies created by Congress, and both Vought & Trump would be impeached if the Constitution or the rule of law mattered to the GOP.

Chuck Schumer should be focused on fighting Donald Trump and protecting healthcare for millions of Americans, not meddling in a Maine primary. DC's choice has lost to Susan Collins five times in a row. We can't afford a sixth.

"Graham Platner is generating so much excitement because many voters, both right and left, are tired of conventional wisdom inevitably delivering poor results for Mainers."

72 hours, five town halls: 600 people in Belfast 650 in Brewer 150 in Dover-Foxcroft 275 in Rumford 290 in Skowhegan A movement is building before our eyes.

Always wondered if there was a place all 47’s horrible actions were being recorded. This is by a professor in the UK. Great resource!

Crazy stuff. MAGAs concerned about illegals getting coverage (they don’t and won’t) will have a huge awakening if the republican leaders get their way.

My latest Substack publication:

One day. Five hundred miles. Three town halls in small town Maine. Four hundred people. We will leave no person and no place behind.

For anyone from anywhere! RSVP. Building a movement! www.mobilize.us/grahamformai...

We must pass a billionaire minimum tax that establishes a baseline tax rate that the super-rich cannot go under. It's time to tax the rich.

Six weeks. Average contribution: $31. And not a single corporate PAC.

Last night: Over a thousand Mainers got drenched in Portland. We’re building a movement, and nobody — not Susan Collins, not Chuck Schumer — is going to stop us.

Jim Comey’s response to the indictment.

850 people in small-town Maine 13 months before the election. Mainers have never been more ready for change.

We’re building a movement to fight for the working class — and to take our power back.

"Platner understands why people like him feel left out. He also understands Trump voters, as many of his friends voted for Trump. But he puts the blame on the rigged system that rewards the wealthy on the backs of everyone else, especially the working class."

People just have no problem being horrible to other humans anymore… and so proud of it. Makes me sick.

This is a campaign to take back what belongs to us. Mainers first. Maine always. 🍪

47 continues to blame the left. He is the most divisive president ever. I am so sickened by his rhetoric and the capacity for lies in his followers. It’s very dangerous in our country.

"We have the social media feeds trying to make you as mad as possible. Easy access to firearms. All it takes is a couple of insane people." The silver lining is that it isn't anywhere near as bad as it can get. @timmiller.bsky.social on today's Bulwark Podcast, joined by @eringloriaryan.bsky.social

Sometimes we pick the bumpy road because we know there is something beautiful and adventurous waiting for us. Let’s commit to the complex, hopeful, essential work of nonviolent change.

I wish more leaders would speak up like this.

Power isn’t just for those with the money to buy it. Together, we can organize and take it. Real power. For the people. That’s what this campaign is about.

Susan Collins hasn’t held a town hall in over 25 years. I’m holding 22 in the next two months. Maine: wherever you are, I'll see you there. RSVP here: tinyurl.com/grahamrsvp

NEW: The anti-Trump protest happening right now on the streets of Washington DC is HUGE! It looks like tens of thousands have joined. This is the view from 16th Street - people stretching as far as the eye can see 👏

Susan Collins's legacy: tax cuts for billionaires, and starving the hungry.

Platner: I believe that input from working people is far more important than input from someone who simply has money. I believe that we shouldn’t be settling for crumbs while billionaires eat the cookie we baked.

Un-Shuck the System Tour. Let’s unseat Susan Collins!

We took our 4 grandchildren to Disney World for their 5th birthdays. The last was in 2021. It’s sad that it is out of reach for almost everyone but the affluent now.

It’s okay if you are feeling tired, exhausted, stressed or furious. No one should have to endure all this.

This…Now…in The United States of America. Do. Not. Cave.

Terrible.

You can bomb the world into pieces, but you can’t bomb it into peace. - Michael Franti

The authority to wage war rests with Congress. This impeachable action is the reckless behavior of a man granted near-total immunity who feels unleashed to do anything.

Instead of CUTTING Social Security benefits, Congress should INCREASE payments by $200 per month and extend the solvency of the Social Security program by 75 YEARS. How? Make the wealthiest Americans pay a fairer share. I’ve got a bill to get it done.

If this bill passes, our public lands will fall into the hands of fossil fuel interests.

Final count was 13.14 million in attendance across 2,300+ No Kings protests nationwide. Count was made with 140,000 ANPS coalition members attending events across the country. Local authorities provided crowd estimates, which were reported back and compiled.That’s over 3.5% of the population. ✊🇺🇸✌🏻
