Thank you for coming out with a full explanation.

I am not a Mainer but I know one that matters:
@hcrichardson.bsky.social

Having an open and honest conversation with Heather could help other Mainers understand what you stand for and if they should get behind you.

I wish you the best of luck.
Don’t give my husband any ideas 😏

He believes in walking thru those sites at a “steady clip” is the best way

However….

Sometimes I go BACK to something I just read because I saw something else that make me think i might’ve missed something 😂
GREAT point!
People really need to wrap their heads around HOW ATTENUATED our election cycles have gotten.

They're acting like the Maine primary was a race between Platner and Mills only and it's too late for anyone else to jump in.

The deadline to REGISTER FOR IT is in MARCH!

Go out and recruit SOMEONE ELSE

The White House has provided neither facts nor legal justification for the extrajudicial killings of men on boats in the Caribbean. It is escalating tensions with Venezuela, Colombia, and other countries in the region.

Chris Murphy: "There's a lot of history that has taken place in the East Wing & it was just destroyed without any conversation in the public, without any consent of Congress. It's absolutely illegal. That visual is powerful b/c you're watching destruction of the rule of law as those walls come down"

Improving the Lives of the American People
Trump has so transformed and degraded the machinery of American government that it isn't enough to just beat him or his successor. Someone has to rebuild the liberal democratic state.

Good.
NEW: California Gov. Gavin Newsom just announced that he'll deploy the California National Guard and California Volunteers "on a humanitarian mission to support food banks as the federal government shutdown delays food benefits for millions of California families."

This is a big deal… my congressman has been in DC for 24 years and hasn’t held a Townhall since 2012.

His rural constituents are standing up.

This 22nd Day Of Your Shutdown
Chump,Would Be A Great Day To
RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES
Reposted by Beth Peaka’sMom
I’ve posted about the Epstein files every day for many months, I write about the Epstein files every day, and we talk about the Epstein files every week on the pod.

And I won’t stop until the full, unredacted (except for victim/witness info) files have been released.
SNAP benefits are essential.

And I believe that ALL school lunches should be free.

No application necessary.

I lived with my dad when I was very young and he didn’t apply for food stamps or free school lunches, though we qualified.

So, I went hungry. It was awful. I begged neighbors for saltine crackers. I can say it was the worst time of my life.

Children shouldn’t go hungry. Restore SNAP benefits.
Really?????!!?
I don’t think so, mike.

Mike Johnson shamelessly lies: "We strengthened Medicaid. We improved healthcare access and we lowered premiums with our legislation."

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 79th day out of the last 91.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Federal agents from ICE and HSI—some in military fatigues and masks—descended on Chinatown today in an aggressive and reckless raid on immigrant street vendors.

Once again, the Trump administration chooses authoritarian theatrics that create fear, not safety. It must stop.
Federal agents descend on Chinatown in apparent raid
The raid follows recent federal arrests at a Midtown migrant shelter, part of what officials call a broader push to “restore law and order” in New York City.

As recently as nine months ago I would’ve laughed off the idea that House Republicans might simply refuse to seat duly elected House Democrats and yet here we are. Hard not to see this as a trial run!

Have been predicting this for several days. VERY important lawsuit.
This lawsuit, which demands that the House of Representatives finally seat Rep. Adelita Grijalva, has, um, fairly major implications for our democracy's survival in 2026 and beyond. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
