mainery.bsky.social @mainery.bsky.social · 15/09/2026To be a Republican at this point is to be complicit in the corruption. Long past that point in fact. A Republican running for state house, or any office, is part of this. Call them out and vote them out. Why are they still supporting this party of corruption and hatred? 0132

mainery.bsky.social @mainery.bsky.social · 29/08/2026CMP may have been worthy of respect at some point in the distant past, but it's being run like a business that's fallen into the hands of a private equity firm...maxing out the earnings, fattening it for a sale. 000

mainery.bsky.social @mainery.bsky.social · 27/08/2026Of course he would. Maine will not elect this hate-fueled candidate. He lacks leadership qualities. He's suitably arrogant and entitled, but he's just running on greed and hate, like the rest of the Republican candidates. Seriously, how is anyone still a Republican? 130
mainery.bsky.social @mainery.bsky.social · 24/08/2026Anyone still registered Republican should be ashamed. If you're still with this party, after all this, you're complicit. Vote 'em all out at every level: school board, town council, planning board, any public office. 000
mainery.bsky.social @mainery.bsky.social · 23/08/2026All politics is still local. In Midcoast Maine, Republican candidates for state house and senate, all of a sudden, are running as independents. It's a thin veil however. They're Republicans, and are running on greed and hatred, just like the national party. They stand for little else that I can see. 926476

mainery.bsky.social @mainery.bsky.social · 18/08/2026At the start of the year, a few classes in, I give my students a pretty heartfelt speech, that I will work very hard to make them stronger students, that their own brain is enough, and a whole bunch of other things. I have had students tell me, years later, that this was the lesson that stood out. 110
mainery.bsky.social @mainery.bsky.social · 18/08/2026He's a terrible person. He was a terrible governor, and you know it. The endorsement of Mike Johnson, one of the least useful speakers in a long time, is appropriate. They're both models of greed, hate, and blame, the only thing the Republicans are running on. Shame on you for publishing this grot. 110
mainery.bsky.social @mainery.bsky.social · 17/08/2026The Collins view of the role of senator is rooted in patronage and clientalism. She talks of federal funds as if they're coming from her own pocket. She's all about that idea that she's bringing the money, and it's a lie. All politics is local and she plays that game. Plays the hometown girl well. 020
mainery.bsky.social @mainery.bsky.social · 16/08/2026Collins does not seem to post anything in advance. Does anyone out there have any lead on upcoming public appearances? I would love to say hello. 120

mainery.bsky.social @mainery.bsky.social · 08/08/2026Collins, my senator, always there when you don't need her. Never missed a vote in the Senate, but so, so many of them in the wrong direction. She's a shill. 010

mainery.bsky.social @mainery.bsky.social · 01/08/2026While we're at it, perhaps mention that Lepage lives in Florida, unless there's an election. He was pretty resounding rejected by Maine voters at his last gubernatorial election, by the way. Hate and greed are the only evident values of the modern Republican party. Keep writing this nonsense though. 171
mainery.bsky.social @mainery.bsky.social · 29/07/2026Needless to say, he will go away ...eventually, back to Florida, once he has gulled the Republicans of the district out of as much as can. He hired his daughter on the state payroll when he was governor...used every opportunity to line his pockets. He actually did significant damage in that role. 000
mainery.bsky.social @mainery.bsky.social · 29/07/2026Lepage is a farce. He was an awful governor and was unpopular too. He does not even live in Maine unless he's running for an election.... and that's a fact. Remember his line: "I was Trump before Trump was Trump." Most Republicans in Maine can't stand him and wish he'd just go away. 120
mainery.bsky.social @mainery.bsky.social · 26/07/2026Yes. It's awful that it even happened. Those managing this were clearly more interested in their own short term gain than in any broader journalistic code. They're being the news and then reporting it. They have been cheaply bought. 010
mainery.bsky.social @mainery.bsky.social · 21/07/2026"Gianni Infantino carefully explains to Donald Trump that he is not part of the Spanish national team.” When will Republicans admit that he's not on our national team either? What else will we lose? What will be left to sell? It is shameful that Collins has just watched all of this happen. 0101
