This is exactly why it is important that we talk about the idea of illegal orders publicly. The Nuremberg Defense is not a valid defense. Crimes are Crimes.
Hegseth has been reforming JAG all year in pursuit of people who would OK these types of orders. He needs to be investigated and impeached.

Trains have long been underutilized in Maine despite advantages in freight and passenger capabilities. Passenger capabilities are particularly important as we look to better connect all of Maine. Especially for those who cannot drive and need services offered in other parts of the state. (1/2)

Absolutely devastated that Spc. Sarah Beckstrom has succumbed to her wounds after being shot in Washington DC. Her life has been cut unbelievably short by this attack.
I sincerely hope that Andrew Wolfe, who remains in critical condition, pulls through.

Labeling Susan Collins a "coward" is far too generous. It implies that she would do better by Mainers if she wasn't scared of some mysterious force.
The reality is that Collins unabashedly votes for her beliefs. And those beliefs align with Trump 96% of the time. Vote her out.

Got a letter from my dentist stating that they will no longer be in-network for my insurance starting in January.
Medicare For All would eliminate such considerations. In fact, much of the money saved by M4A is through simplification of the existing overly complex system. We can get it done.

It's been a long while since I had a town hall, so I wanted to get one more in before the end of the year.
I will be in Belfast on Saturday, 13 December for a Town Hall. I hope to see some of you there! See the Mobilize link below for details. (1/2) #mepolitics

One of the most incredible efforts I've participated in since leaving the Army is helping detect and respond to cyber attacks against Ukraine. All while living right here in Maine.
Its another reason why this regime's handling of Ukraine has been infuriating for me. Ukraine needs good allies.

As someone who first enlisted in the Army and then eventually became an officer, I've had a lot of training sessions talking about the legality of orders.
This has included numerous reviews of cases like the My Lai massacre and torture at Abu Ghraib. Incidents we should never forget.

Very happy to finally see progress with the Epstein files.
But we must continue to push. The release of the files, while monumental, is only the first step in holding people accountable. We must continue to fight for actual prosecution of all implicated individuals.

Debate has begun on the House floor over the Epstein files vote. Mike Johnson continues to fail the victims of these heinous crimes by constantly quibbling over how the bill is written.
Susan Collins would do well to finally vote for the release of the files this time when it goes to the Senate.

Maine has a bill from Rep @amyroeder.bsky.social to do just this. One more reason for lawmakers to (finally) pass it when they get back in January #mepolitics
When states like Colorado passed policies requiring employers to disclose salary information in job postings, what happened?
It increased competition, and raised wages, without harming employment or changing skill requirements.
Improved functioning of markets, helped workers.

The wealth gap continues to grow substantially in this country. That's why, among other measures, I support the Tax Excessive CEO Pay Act.
CEOs don't work 300, 400, or 500 times harder than their average worker. Why should they be compensated as if they do? Pay workers their fair share.

I have seen a lot of discussion around Burnt Jacket Mountain today. My understanding is that the land was sold for $8.1 million. Not exactly a sum an average Mainer could afford.
Incredible access to nature is part of the culture and soul of Maine. We need to preserve our lands and tax the rich.

Enjoyed the chance to speak at the Blue Wave Gala last night. I also heard from more Mainers about their top concerns. We still have a long way to go before the primary, and I’m excited to meet even more Mainers. Town halls are on the horizon, just a bit more planning to do first.
