Breaking news: Ralph Wright, ‘revered and feared’ longest-serving Vermont House speaker, dies at 91

At the #uvmrise summit today in #btv.

The conference committee on H.955, the education reform bill, met all day today and most of the evening, and is reassembling at 10:30 p.m. They really are desperate to adjourn.

I’m officially in! I’ve filed to run for Windsor County High Bailiff. I’m ready to work for transparency and accountability in our local government. Can you chip in a few bucks to help me buy lawn signs and flyers? Donate here: secure.actblue.com/donate/hudsonf…#vtpolil#vermontnt

Someone is happy I’m home 😊

Wow. What a dick.

Phil Scott's big idea on health care? A modest regulatory reform measure that could cut premiums by five percent. That's the best case scenario. Crisis? What crisis? thevpo.org/2026/02/02/i...

Grateful to David Zuckerman and the team at WDEV for having me on today. We talked data privacy, the right to be deleted, government surveillance, AI chatbots, and why rural voices matter in tech policy. 🎧 Protecting Data, Protecting People (Jan 29, 2026):

Have to be completely honest- I didn’t know bad bunny was a dude until I looked at CNN this AM

The flu is the fucking worst…

I hate our president…. If anyone was wondering….

At the senate ed hearing in So. Royalton today. It’s pretty damn clear that the public doesn’t like act 73. #vtpoli

No.

Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett launches bid for U.S. Senate in Texas, looking to flip a Republican-held seat.

I’m really fucking sick of this governors bs #vtpoli

After much consideration, I’m running for High Bailiff of Windsor County — not out of political ambition, but because this office matters. It’s a constitutional safeguard that ensures accountability and continuity in all forms of government. 1/4

Like I've said for months, I cannot support Senator Chuck Schumer as leader. We need new voices in Washington, and I’m ready to be the fighter you need to stand up to Donald Trump and Republicans.

I’m voting no on the continuing resolution that would double healthcare premiums for 20 million Americans, kick 15 million people off Medicaid & allow 50,000 Americans to die unnecessarily every year. All to give $1 trillion in tax breaks for billionaires.

I may be more progressive than Speaker Pelosi, but I’ve always had a lot of respect for her. She’s a unique leader, and I miss her tough approach in the Democratic caucus. Jefferies just doesn’t measure up to her. Wishing you a happy retirement, Madam Speaker.

vermontbiz.com/news/2025/octo… @mepriestley.com is running for Vermont State Senate, and I couldn’t be more excited. Her dedication to public service and commitment to Vermont communities make her the leader we need. Let’s flip this seat and build what’s next for Vermont, together#vtpolili

vermontbiz.com/news/2025/octo… Rep. Monique Preistley is running for Vermont State Senate, and I couldn’t be more excited. Her dedication to public service and commitment to Vermont communities make her the leader we need. Let’s flip this seat and move Vermont forward#vtpolil#MoniqueForSenatete

Sen. Jeff Merkley is taking a stand on the Senate floor, calling out the rise of authoritarianism in our great nation. Tune in now. #DemocracyMatters www.senate.gov/legislative/...

vtdigger.org/2025/09/22/5... Incredibly poor judgment….

Senator Welch is someone whom I like very much, and I have a great relationship with him. However this is not a wise move.

This is why it’s time for a new governor!

Today, I watched Vermont’s legislative leadership retreat into the governor’s corner and pass H.454—a bill that raises taxes on working families, paves the way for public school closures, and funnels more public money to private schools.

Trump’s efforts to deport migrant farm workers will only disrupt families, raise food prices and put more pressure on struggling family farms. It is exactly the wrong approach. The time is long overdue for real immigration reform and a path to citizenship for migrant workers.

Hegseth would have not been appointed by a president who cares about our country. He’s a disgrace to the people in uniform. Hegseth was appointed solely because he would bend his knee to whatever the president wants. It is critically important that a fascist dictator has control over the military.

How to support Mohsen Mahdawi - please share. If you are an upper valley community member who knows him PLEASE write a letter of support. We want Mohsen back in our community 🩷 this gofundme is for his mounting legal and living expenses gofund.me/975138c5

I’m making my choice clear: my campaign will not take money from giant corporations and never will. This is a people powered grassroots campaign by Minnesotans for Minnesotans. Will you join us? peggyflanagan.com

Truly embarrassing thing to promote. This is like putting out a press release about how there’s no definition of gullible in the dictionary
