No one should die in the streets because they are unhoused. This is a solvable problem, and as Maine’s next Governor, I’m committed to housing for everyone.

Want to get a sense of how bad the Trump economy is getting? Bean producers are now marketing "new recipes inspired by cooking strategies from the Depression" which ofc @axios.com is hyping as a "bean boom." 😏 www.axios.com/newsletters/...
"Grocery prices continue to squeeze budgets. But one New Orleans company is seeing sales growth: Camellia Beans. As American consumers look for affordable options, Camellia is creating one-and-done bean seasonings and even experimenting with Depression-era recipes, Axios New Orleans' Chelsea Brasted writes. 📈 Zoom in: The price of beef hit a historic high of $6.32 per pound in September. A pound of dried beans was just $1.63. "As the economy goes down, bean consumption goes up," says Camellia Beans CEO Vince Hayward. "You eat more beans when you have less money. That's a life imperative." The company recently introduced its new "Infusions" line, a single seasoning packet to make "a great pot of beans," Hayward says. His team developed new recipes inspired by cooking strategies from the Depression."

It's not a question of politics or party. Congress has a constitutional obligation to impeach and to remove a president who commits high crimes and misdemeanors and forsakes his solemn oath.

And there has never been a president who has committed as many impeachable offenses than this one.
andycraig.bsky.social Andy Craig @andycraig.bsky.social · 27d
There's a Hill bubble narrative, posing as savvy realism, in treating impeachment as some radioactive poison and so Democrats must squash any talk of it. But there's zero evidence for that. No polls back it up, nor recent history. It's all just pundit-brained conventional wisdom eating its own tail.

President Trump and his cabinet secretaries are enamored with coal, a dying energy source whose operating costs outweigh the revenue it generates. So who’s asking for this? Hint - it’s not the average American.
The Real Reason the Feds Want to Revive Coal
Here’s how the revival of a dying industry could increase your energy bills
