It seems wrong to bury St. Joseph upside down. Now we wait.

Looking forward to being able to cast my vote in ME/CD-2 and join many other Mainers to vote you out Ms. Collins. That day can’t come soon enough for us all.

YES! Exactly this!

Yes, let’s vote her out.

While there are many many reasons, if you can‘t think of one, and for no other reason…the color choice of this outfit in the photo.
Defending voting rights , approving the red flag law and Jared Golden stepping down!

Jared Golden drops out of his CD-2 race citing the threat of political violence the same day Susan Collins glorifies and laughs at the jokes of a guy she once accused of having "incited" "terrorists" to "insurrection."

2025, people! #MEpolitics

So many of us on this platform are fortunate enough to be able to have internet (to post here) food, employment and support to get through each day. Many, are not so fortunate.

If there is nothing else you can do today, count your blessings and find a way to help in your communities, in some way.

If we could find more compassion across the globe like what is demonstrated here.
Second squirrel rescue this month. This little buddy had no visible injuries but seemed really shaken. Recovering comfortably in the spare room, hopefully feeling better tomorrow.

Donald Trump has the money to make sure people on SNAP get their benefits, even in a shutdown.

He is CHOOSING not to.

And don't forget: Republicans passed the LARGEST cut to SNAP in our nation's history.

What a Great article, everyone from Maine should read this prior to voting.

NO on Question 1

Not sure about upcoming ballot questions?
The GOP (w/Leonard Leo) backed ballot measure, if passed, would radically restrict voting in Maine.

40% of Mainers & 60% of Maine seniors depend on mail voting. Do not let this measure pass. #NoOn1

You can do your part to save democracy from your recliner, while watching your favorite Petite Coat Junction, Mash or Golden Girls episode.
While you're contacting Mike Johnson's offices, why not also file a complaint with the Office of Congressional Conduct and the House Committee on Ethics?

Horror stories are usually thrilling and thoughtful work from Mr. King. Not these days and by the photos we are witnessing from the destruction at 1600 Penn.

Sad and horrific times.

If the Platner campaign has any other items beyond the infamous body ink that may cause issue with the primary voter, hopefully they evaluated and strategized next steps.
One thing that happened today: Chances of Janet Mills vetoing the bill limiting cooperation btwn Maine police and ICE dropped precipitously.

Will be interesting to see what else she does to try to get right with the base.

Candidates competing over the base is good! That's what we want! #MEpolitics
NEW: University of New Hampshire poll has Graham Platner up 58% to 24% over Gov. Janet Mills.

"The survey was conducted between last Wednesday, one day after CNN published an initial story on Platner’s Reddit posts, and concluded Monday." #MEpolitics

Dr. Nirav Shah, who led Maine through the Covid-19 pandemic and later moved to a national public health position is running for Maine governor.

I remember his voice during the pandemic as a regular, calm, presenter of facts and statistics.

It really does feel ominous, like, things are bad and so many of us are bracing ourselves for them to get much, much worse very quickly.

Please take care of yourselves in this friends—stay connected to others, the earth, your joy, and all the other things that sustain us.
