I do not understand the calculations at the new "T Accounts". By my reckoning, $1,000 at 3% for 18 years compounded annually is $1,702.43. Anyone? #MEpolitics At the pretty website (trumpaccounts.gov) :

You can see where the "she's so moderate" schtick came from. I am taking the 96% on faith, though; I am not quite sure how that is calculated. #MEpolitics #MEsen

I read somewhere recently that Collins used to vote the party line about 50% of the time. Currently it is 96%. I cannot find it again. Does anyone have a source? #MEpolitics

I questioned Jackson many years ago about a “fetal personhood” bill in the Maine Legislature and was criticized/blocked by some Democrats for daring to do so. He has since come around and apologized, something (as he correctly pointed out during the debate) Collins has never done about anything.

Jane Doe has sued her own sorority. I’m not looking at the complaint, but I think it was because some sorority official took (underage) her to the bar where the whole mess started.

One of the #Cornell7 filed a lawsuit against the University in March of this year (yes, a year-and-a-half after the incident) because of due process issues. Quite a bit of background information. iapps.courts.state.ny.us/webcivil/FCA... using the case number EF2026-0292.

The #Cornell7 lawsuit filing is online. I had not realized Jane Doe is suing her own sorority, too, along with a local bar which served alcohol to her despite being underage.

I was suspicious of Jackson when he ran for governor because many years ago I questioned his sponsorship of a “fetal personhood “ bill. I was roundly criticized, and even blocked, by some Democrats for even asking. I’m glad he’s come around.

There is a USM faculty member offering to help community members draft municipal petitions demanding moratoriums on data centers. What worries me is that this person was apparently unaware, despite “having done their research”, that the Maine Data Center Advisory Group exists. #MEpolitics

Opinion: The advantage of reelecting Susan Collins is diminished in this political climate
“I disagree strongly with his assertion that a win for Collins would better serve the interests of Mainers and the nation than one for Troy Jackson in the current political climate.”
