Somehow, there’s always money for another tax break for billionaires and there’s never enough money when a rural family needs a hospital, a doctor, or a safe place to deliver a child. I’m sick of it. And I know Mainers are too. We can change it together.

Many of you are asking how you can help me. My only ask is this: Spread the word about the threats to democracy and how we can fight back. Tell everyone to subscribe to Democracy Docket and share its content. demdock.com/4w6emld

A central part of why it seems like powerful, rich people live in a consequence-free world is that the social incentives to hold them to account have withered. www.ctinsider.com/columnist/ar... 𝟏𝟐-𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐡 𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐭𝐞-𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐫 𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐦𝐞𝐬

I think the MAGA political calculus is that they can cut anti-terrorism units because if a terror attack were to occur, it would benefit Trump like 9/11 did for George W. Bush. Trump is absolutely craven. www.cnn.com/2026/06/22/p...

When we win, the first bill I’m filing is a comprehensive anti-corruption package: Overturn Citizens United Ban corporate PACs and super PACs Ban members of Congress from trading stocks Once we defeat the most corrupt politician in America, we can defeat this entire corrupt system.

There’s been a lot of talk in this race about what makes a "real man." A man does what’s right when no one is watching. He upholds his commitments to his family and neighbors. He doesn’t lie, cheat, & steal his way through life. Real men serve others. Weak men serve themselves.

Someone at a party told me, "AOC is stupid." I replied, "You really need to stop watching Fox. It's turning your brain into porridge. I've listened to AOC question witnesses in House hearings, and she is better at cross-examination than most top-tier trial attorneys." I then found better company.

Absolutely the right thing to do. The marginal tax increase for the target property owners is still insignificant compared to the benefits they still get from the property and the value they get from having a safer and healthier city.

The cost of your flight went up because you searched for it twice. Your rideshare costs more because your phone battery is dying. This is surveillance pricing – corporations using your own data and behaviors against you. In the US Senate, I’ve got plan to ban it.

You could say that Rock n Roll was born 111 years ago today in Arkansas, but probably not where you'd think. Before there was a Chuck Berry or Little Richard, there was those who wanted to be like her. Rosetta Nubin better known as Sister Rosetta Tharpe, the godmother of Rock was born on this day
