The SAVE ACT severely restricts legal voting. It has passed the House & is before the Senate. CONTACT YOUR SENATORS. Demand they do NOT allow the SAVE ACT to pass: senate.gov/senators/senators-contact.htm

HCR w/a very important point to embrace, exactly what I explained to a friend yesterday, and have been pushing all year.

We each have a skill, ability, or cause, & it's our job to offer it to the world. It's why I have #EveryEffortCounts in my header and every post.

Everybody's torch is different.

It's a sad fact that we have to band together as neighbors to protect each other from our own government.

What the admin is slowly learning, is we are creating ever stronger community & resistance, connections, and determination that will endure and overcome.

I'm deeply proud of our ACLU-New Hampshire neighbors who are helping lead the resistance against ICE's disgusting attempt to hold people in a commercial warehouse. New England stands together in fighting back against Trump's cruelty and lawlessness.

Documents confirm ICE plans for Merrimack warehouse; state officials knew for weeks
The federal government alerted the state Division of Historical Resources of its plan as early as Jan. 9, according to documents obtained by the ACLU of New Hampshire.

More like “forced” into, when AI is added to our existing software, email, spell check, web browsers and operating systems. It is extremely difficult to disable.

It’s also who we are forced to talk to when reaching out to customer service or, increasingly, even our own local government.

This campaign is about working people — not hiding behind consultants or cozying up to special interests. Thank you to the packed house in Bar Harbor last night. Rooms like that are why this campaign is going to beat Paul LePage. Mainers want a a fighter — not a comeback tour.

Susan Collins wants to make it harder to vote.

She just bailed out Trump and cosponsored the "SAVE Act.” Under this terrible bill, if you get married and change your name, or if you can't find your passport — you could be turned away from the polls.

Troy Jackson, candidate to be Maine's next Governor, on what he would do to enforce the law and the U.S. Consitution in regards to present immigration actions by ICE.

The law applies to everyone, including ICE agents. When I’m governor of Maine, if those guys try pulling any of the dirty tricks we saw during “Operation Catch of the Day,” I’ll have them arrested. End of story.

Last year in the White House, when Trump tried to intimidate Maine into following his executive order, I fought back, took him to court, and won.

Anyone can talk tough — but I get things done. Watch my new ad:

New review of my book THEY KNEW, which lays out the backstory of the Epstein conspiracy. It was published in 2022 and therefore lives up to the title! I appreciate this essay and its broader insights: carter719.substack.com/p/sarah-kind...

I have to confess that I’ve spent the last few months getting utterly obsessed with the Epstein story.

The North Maine Woods are essential for our environment and for loggers alike. But big landowners are abusing both to maximize profits, spraying deadly poisons and using shortsighted cutting methods.

Prior governors turned a blind eye to this rampant greed. I won’t.

Liar, liar! Pants on fire!!

The SAVE Act is a voter suppression bill that will more negatively impact women”s and minorities ability to vote. Anyone who cares to understand socioeconomics knows this. Shame on Collins for letting us down!
