9/29 Filling out the voter registration status-check form on Maine.vote gives your data to a conservative Maine PAC campaigning for Senator Collins. The form on VoteSafe.org goes to a database owned by Elon Musk's PAC. Mainers should be cautious. #maine #MEpolitics

Was a lovely morning to attend our second Common Ground Country Fair. (MOFGA’s 50th annual fair!) Manageable crowd size. Overcast skies. The rain held off. The smell of the pathway through the woods to the fair grounds. #Perfect #MOFGA

By the way, Elon Musk didn't start Tesla. By the time he invested in Tesla, the original founders had already started building the Roadster THEY had designed. When he bought them out, he changed the history of the company to make himself a founder. I'm not joking. He's always been a fraud.

It is telling that the Trump regime did not send any officials to the Sunday talk shows to defend the war they are losing.

A former Democratic colleague of hers once told me that Susan Collins is “usually there when you don’t need her and never there when you actually do.” The moderate brand she projects is entirely performative. It’s always surprised me that Maine voters don’t seem to care.

Every representative who voted yes voted for more brutalization of our neighbors, more kidnapping of our children, more trampling of our rights, and more murder from this government.
These House Democrats just voted with Republicans to give ICE more money:
Jared Golden (ME-02)
Don Davis (NC-01)
Tom Suozzi (NY-03)
Laura Gillen (NY-04)

The discharge petition to force a vote on the Epstein Files only received a handful of GOP votes. But when we get the actual vote to release them, I'm presuming we'll see a whole lot more, right? "Congressman _____ voted against releasing the Epstein Files" isn't an ad you want before the midterms

I didn’t give a wit about new pope coverage, but the first American pope being a man with Black ancestry born in Chicago by way of New Orleans by way of Haiti. Names his self after the pope who condemned slavery? In the Trump era? Oh, baebae, I am HERE for it. www.wwltv.com/article/news...

Pope Leo XIV's grandparents were 7th Ward Creoles
The newly elected pontiff, born in Chicago, has ancestral ties to the city’s historic Seventh Ward, according to genealogists at The Historic New Orleans Collection.

My guess: The US-UK almost-a-deal may have reduced the average tariff rate Britain charges on American exports from 1% to 0.8%. And the UK is only 3% of US trade. "So if this sounds like small potatoes to you, that's because these aren't potatoes. These are tiny little peas."
