The president of the United States killed children to distract from raping children.

Classless.

A former Democratic colleague of hers once told me that Susan Collins is “usually there when you don’t need her and never there when you actually do.” The moderate brand she projects is entirely performative. It’s always surprised me that Maine voters don’t seem to care.

So, yeah:

Chocolate Fest today. Searsport Congregational Church. Interfaith Fuel Fund to benefit. #Midcoast #Chocolate #Community

NEW VIDEO: this appears to be the footage from the woman in the pink coat.

Every representative who voted yes voted for more brutalization of our neighbors, more kidnapping of our children, more trampling of our rights, and more murder from this government.

if you still use Twitter please understand that you are enabling and supporting this. It’s only going to get worse, so you may as well leave now and start rebuilding your “following” anywhere else.

If you’re pissed about the 60 Minutes censorship, my advice is to go find your favorite independent journalist and give them some money. Corporate media isn’t going to save us.

The discharge petition to force a vote on the Epstein Files only received a handful of GOP votes. But when we get the actual vote to release them, I'm presuming we'll see a whole lot more, right? "Congressman _____ voted against releasing the Epstein Files" isn't an ad you want before the midterms

Why was Alan Dershowitz trying to lower the age of consent to 15? #Epstein

Such a special event to attend. The new Sea Captain Statue was installed in front of Penobscot Marine Museum’s Fowler-True-Ross House. An impressive tribute to mariners who contributed to Searsport’s history. #Searsport #MaineMaritime #SeaCaptainStatue #PenobscotMarineMuseum #CoastalHeritage

Mt. Battie Memorial Tower. Camden Hills State Park, #Maine.

Last day of the season for Bricks-n-Sticks in #Searsport. #Midcoast #Maine #PenobscotBay

There is no place for violence in our democracy — against anyone.

If you’re looking for what @npr.org and @pbs.org stations to donate to, this is the best website I have seen and it gives you the ability to choose how much federal funding is their total revenue if they are an HBCU if they are native, if they are rural the licensing type and the state it is amazing

Crypto diners exposed

So let me get this straight: masks are bad and un-American if worn to fight a pandemic, but good if worn by people claiming to be government agents when they kidnap people off the street

A group of Quakers are marching more than 300 miles to demonstrate against the Trump administration's crackdown on immigrants. Organizers of the march say their protest seeks to show solidarity with migrants and other groups that are being targeted by the administration.

Israel is preventing the WHO from sending incubators into Gaza. Think about how savage, how barbaric, how evil, you have to be to defend that and defend the government doing that.

How about some basic rules? --All law enforcement officers should wear identification --No law enforcement officers should be allowed masks --All law enforcement officers should wear and use body cams ...oh and... --All law enforcement officers should understand, respect & follow the law

We were many and we were fierce at the Maine state Capitol yesterday in opposition to proposed anti-trans legislation.

Today, our client Rümeysa Öztürk was released on bail from ICE detention in Louisiana, and she will return to New England to continue her studies. 📸 Giancarlo D’Agostaro

Every book published in the United States is sent to the Library of Congress. Also, if you are under 16 you cannot use the reading room or order books.

Arresting a mayor for doing his job should never be allowed in this country. We stand firmly with Mayor Baraka and his right to do his job. The Trump administration’s actions are an abuse of all we believe in America. www.aft.org/press-releas... @aaup.bsky.social @aftnewjersey.bsky.social

Gregg Popovich: the NBA truth teller who held Trump, and the US, to account

Our Librarian of Congress was terminated by the Trump Admin yesterday despite her exemplary service. Dr. Carla Hayden is a librarian non pareil - an historian, researcher, & dedicated public servant. Fear of Black excellence cannot erase her accomplishments or the gift of her service. #Blacksky

So instead of working to solve America's problems this is what congress voted on yesterday. patch.com/california/s...

I didn’t give a wit about new pope coverage, but the first American pope being a man with Black ancestry born in Chicago by way of New Orleans by way of Haiti. Names his self after the pope who condemned slavery? In the Trump era? Oh, baebae, I am HERE for it. www.wwltv.com/article/news...

USL Sickos! If you love the Hearts of Pine and want to listen to some European with slighty better English Knowlege: listen to the Portland Pinecast by Mike from the UK. Always enjoyable, his waffleing! #UpTheHearts open.spotify.com/episode/59nl...

🚨BREAKING VIDEO: In a scathing ruling, a panel of three federal judges struck down Alabama’s 2023 congressional map as a violation of both the Voting Rights Act and the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Paige and I explain. youtu.be/IlCtcyh1QnU

My guess: The US-UK almost-a-deal may have reduced the average tariff rate Britain charges on American exports from 1% to 0.8%. And the UK is only 3% of US trade. "So if this sounds like small potatoes to you, that's because these aren't potatoes. These are tiny little peas."

And so it begins... Last week this was $8.99

Just breathe. #BelfastBay #Belfast #Maine

No reason for Bernie Sanders to apologize for taking private jets. It’s a bullshit attack. He’s traveling across the country, rallying Americans to stand up to corrupt billionaires who are stealing taxpayer money. Fox News should spend more time covering that.

Casar: "The party of 'very fine people on both sides' or 'Jewish space lasers' does not give a damn about stopping antisemitism. If my Republican colleagues want to stop the spread of antisemitism, maybe they should stop apologizing for and promoting antisemites."

“I think this says that they will not tolerate us being active participants in our democracy—they want an autocracy,” Emily Feiner told Mother Jones. Meet the 64-year-old retired social worker who went viral after being forcibly removed from her representative's town hall.

Judge Hellerstein destroys EVERY PART of Trump's Alien Enemies Act case -Immigrants have NOT invaded the US -They MUST be given meaningful due process -The US ALREADY wrongfully deported migrants, so no more will be sent "where they would endure abuse and inhumane treatment with no recourse"

When asked if the United States should have a military parade to show off its might, President Eisenhower responded: “Absolutely not. We are the pre-eminent power on Earth. For us to try and imitate what the Soviets are doing in Red Square would make us look weak.”

Move the World Cup, the Olympics, and every international meeting out of the U.S. It is not safe to come here until conditions change. That's not alarmist. That's the reality we are looking at. It's never been like this my whole, getting to be longish, life.

And today every flight going into the New York region from DCA were delayed or cancelled -for hours this afternoon

Bhattacharya seems like a great fit for this administration. He has that perfect combination of complete self confidence and jaw-dropping incompetence.
