Listening to @brucespringsteen.net’s album The Rising on my way to work with future educators. Remembering teaching in my middle school classroom 25 years ago. Proud to have chosen such an important profession.

Interesting LTE – one with which I suspect a lot of Mainers agree, tho might not say. An awful lot of mixed feelings out there, though I believe everyone can agree we need to rally together, elect Troy Jackson to the U.S. Senate and unseat Susan Collins. #MEpolitics #JACKSONforMAINE #NoMoreSusan

I join union nurses in calling for Debora Kapisha's immediate release from ICE detention. To those who can make it, I encourage you to join Maine union nurses for an emergency demonstration today at 10:30 AM outside Maine Medical Center in Portland.

I’ve learned through my union brothers and sisters at the Maine State Nurses Association that one of their colleagues, Debora Kapisha, has been detained by ICE. ICE plans to transfer her to Louisiana, where she’ll be even farther from her family, legal counsel, and support systems.

Debora is a medical-surgical nurse at Maine Medical Center. Her colleagues describe her as an amazing nurse and a kind, supportive coworker. On top of it all, she is legally authorized to live and work in this country. She should be at work today assisting Maine patients and their families. Instead, she’s being held captive by the Trump administration.

This is what happens when a rogue agency is granted free license to carry out a racist, authoritarian agenda without restraint. We must abolish ICE, not give them tens of billions of taxpayer dollars to bring terror to our streets.

I join the Maine State Nurses Association in demanding Debora’s immediate release from ICE detention, and I call on Maine Medical Center to take immediate steps to formally sponsor her for permanent residency.

I cannot imagine what Debora is going through right now, but I’m inspired by the swift action of her union. To those who can make it, I encourage you to join Maine nurses for an emergency demonstration this morning outside Maine Med. Solidarity forever.

Solidarity forever.

Troy

It's weird to me how trump never lets go of a grudge, he still bitches about Obama, Biden, Hillary, and even Rosie O'Donnell for some reason. He never says a word about any of the people who supposedly tried to assassinate him. Nothing. Weird.

Saw Barry Manilow tonight in Portland, Maine. Fantastic show! So much fun! He held a contest in advance where students voted for their favorite music teacher. Isaac Hawkins of Gorham HS won $10K. Sad to think that is about a quarter of his yearly salary and grateful to Barry for honoring him.

I think you misinterpreted what I said. 72% of those who chose to vote voted for him. I’m all about facts. I believe it was you who tried to count those not eligible vote. But hey we currently are able to vote for who you want. Not my business you vote for in your state.

Watching Meet the Press. Welker just asked Jeffries if Senate Dems would replace Platner. That would be a fantastic way to disenfranchise the record number of voters who elected him. I say shut up about the man 15 years ago and focus on the man now.

The problem with Platner’s sexting is he is actually young enough to represent me the two generations younger than me. He is the only one in that category that has the name recognition and money to beat Collins.

salbeau91.bsky.social @salbeau91.bsky.social · 06/06/2026

Where is she campaigning? She dropped out and now that Platner has the establishment so scared they are all coming after him, she says hey don’t forget my name is still on the ballot. No campaigning just being opportunistic. I voted for her twice and now I have zero respect for her.

I did not support Mills for senate from the beginning. I think she has been a decent governor and I voted for her twice. I also believe that a 77 year old woman does not represent my generation or the two younger than me.

FDR, Kennedy, (fill in the blank) would not have stood up to the test people are holding Platner to if they had been running in the age of social media and the internet. He is the only one with a chance of defeating Collins and representing voters younger than 60.
