The Senate campaign of Maine Gov. Janet Mills, 77, has prompted some criticism and reignited a debate in the Democratic party about age.
She would be the oldest freshman senator ever if she wins.

On this date, Matthew Shephard died 27 years ago. He was beaten, tortured, and left for dead on fence for being gay. Please keep him and his wonderful mother Judy in your thoughts. And let's all work for a world where such horrific things do not happen to anyone. ❤️🏳️🌈

We can all easily imagine what Charlie Kirk would be saying about the suspected killer if the victim was a different right-wing influencer. The amount of fear-mongering and hate filled speech directed at minorities, LGBTQ+, and other left leaning groups would play a direct role in the next attack

An immediate arrest once reaching US waters or land could just as easily make a point about 'Tough on Crime.' The technically used to track is the same that Dems requested be invested along Southern Border.
If the U.S. military isn't going to release details on the justification for killing 11 civilians in a civilian boat who weren't posing a threat to anyone, then we have to conclude the "justification" is: the U.S. military is willing to kill civilians to give Trump social media content.

“Fighting Democrats might get likes online, but it's not what restores majorities," Rep. Scholten told @axios.com www.axios.com/2025/04/18/h...
