41 days since Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a lawful US resident from El Salvador, was mistakenly deported to a foreign prison in El Salvador. Despite no due process and SCOTUS order to return him to US. @msnbc.com needs a DAYS INCARCERATED counter so people don't forget.

Trump cut a secret deal with the Mexican cartels, Mexican security chief Omar García Harfuch confirmed cartel family members entered US in a deal with the Sinaloa Cartel and the Trump regime.

Went to @chelliepingree.bsky.social ‘s town hall this afternoon. Lots of explaining how awful things are, but light on what she’s doing about it. Didn’t find that her chief of staff really cared.
One thing we can do? Contact the major news networks and ask that they interview her. Will you help me?

@chelliepingree.bsky.social Do you and Aaron Frey still have faith that the courts will do the right thing?
Get off your rear and shut this administration down before anyone else is illegally deported.
We voted for you to do your job.

As a way of trying to find and express solidarity with Canada, I’ve been trying to appreciate the Tragically Hip. I don’t get it. They have one song (Bobcaygeon) that I find appealing.
At least their poutine and beer don’t suck, and hockey is awesome.

We need to dispel some rumors. There is ZERO fentanyl trafficking on both of our HIMI islands. In fact, while our Gentoo penguins can travel hundreds of miles to bring partners their favorite pebble, they are incapable and unwilling of carrying even an ounce of illicit drugs.

As expected, the Signal chat fiasco seems to have been the tip of the iceberg. >20 Signal chats reported.

"All four [sources] reported seeing “sensitive information” discussed in these forums, though none said they were aware of classified material being shared"

If you call Susan Collins’ office, anyone of them, the person on the other end will lie to you. Call them out in the lies. She and her staff are lying liars.
I demand her resignation. Join me.

I am incredibly proud and impressed with our Governor, Janet T. Mills. I don’t agree with her on every issue (and let’s face it, that’s not a realistic expectation), but she has stood up for Maine amd America, and I approve of her job performance.
