TJ’s was packed today with people avoiding grocery price increases come Tuesday’s threatened tariffs. Shelves were empty and a few clerks commented it felt like pandemic panic. I wonder how many shoppers voted for this…🙄

Dear Leaders of the Free World,
Fight him at every turn.
Make his life miserable.
Expose his ignorance and sociopathy.
Oppose and condemn and marginalize him.
The decent people of this nation are not with him.
We stand with you.

Horrifying.
The word for this is "coup."

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.
Opportunities are everywhere.
Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Yes, he is your party’s president and leader. You have supported him in the past and you support him now. He is tangibly hurting people in Maine, and you will prattle on, act concerned, and do nothing. You will own everything he does to hurt Mainers and everyone else.

I’ll start. Rebecca Lee Crumpler was the first Black American woman physician. She became a doctor of medicine at New England Female Medical College in 1864, just a year before the end of the Civil War. She spent her career focusing on women, children and people of color who were unable to pay.
