Democratic Maine Governor Janet Mills takes on US Senator Susan Collins

Maine Governor Janet Mills launched a U.S. Senate campaign on Tuesday, joining a crowded field of Democrats hoping to unseat Republican Senator Susan Collins with a campaign that intends to portray the incumbent as an out-of-step defender of President Donald Trump.

Thank you to the organizers of today's wildly successful (and peaceful) "No Kings" rallies. You did an amazing job. And thanks to all the millions of people who showed up to give us faith. And a special shout out to the White House regime and the Speaker of the House for all the free publicity!

Our Founders envisioned a nation by the people, for the people—not a nation run by felons selling out our country for their own gain. Stand up, unite, and fight to reclaim the America we were meant to have! Show up, raise your voice, and fight for America's soul!

Big business since the early days (Mr. Potter in Pottersville) had always shunned small businesses. AI however had altered the playing field quickly and irreversibly. It will take Big Businesses 5 years to learn what small businesses know now.

I want to personally thank Mike Johnson, Scott Bessent and every GOPer who has gone on TV to whine about tomorrow’s No Kings rallies. So many people would not have known about these rallies without your free

Had we not stared pushing back on authoritarianism early on in this administration, things would be much worse. Be grateful today of the power of our united voices saying ENOUGH! Keep on pushing!

Me: "What happens is that everybody looks for somebody else to stand up and to defy the authoritarianism. But once you get enough people doing it, it becomes safe to do it. You become excited about doing it. And that's what I think is going to happen this weekend with the #NoKings rallies."
