#Maine Secretary of State Shenna Bellows came by Rockland to share a few words today. She was one of 150 people out in the freezing rain to resist this regime of violent cruelty. #MEPolitics

Climate breakdown is occurring more rapidly with the heating rate almost doubling, according to research that excludes the effect of natural factors behind the latest scorching temperatures. #climatecrisis #auspol www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Congress could have stopped an illegal war. Instead, four Democrats voted to let Donald Trump continue it. War costs lives and taxpayer dollars better spent on healthcare, education, and economic opportunity. Read my full article from Let’s Address This

So far the war in Iran has cost an estimated $5.5 billion. That's roughly $1 billion per day. $41,666,667 per hour. $11,574 per second. People do not want this. They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

Sweet Ace, helps me.

A Mullin appointment will continue Kristi Noem's ways, & I can also speak to his cruelty to healthcare that I have witnessed personally since 2018. He's absolutely devoid of any compassion for healthcare access & that says what you NEED to know.🤬

Free and fair elections are the cornerstone of our democracy. But right now, they’re under attack. Several Republican-controlled states have redrawn their congressional maps to give themselves an unfair advantage in the midterm elections.

🚨 Kristi Noem just spent TWO DAYS dodging real accountability on Capitol Hill. This isn't leadership. This is criminal negligence. IMPEACH KRISTI NOEM NOW.

Congress must oppose additional funding for DHS without provisions that ensure accountability for ICE’s violence and an end to the deadly masked patrols in our streets. Send an email to demand accountability: act.standupamerica.com/letters/cte-...

Winning this race is going to take courage, conviction, and experience, and I’ve got all three.

I voted for Jasmine Crockett. I knew TX would vote for the white guy. 😡 The TX Republicans illegally stopped Dallas voters by separating parties and where they vote. Confusion lost votes. I will now support James Talarico in his bid for Senator. #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #Pinks #SheShedi

For ppl who aren't aware: Old temperate forests are insanely rare nowadays and extremely important ecosystems lost forever once cut. They're not just "old trees" but intricate networks of trees, fungi and all kinds of living creatures. You CANNOT replant this!! Once it's gone it's lost FOREVER!!!

It’s really crazy how much I’ve been agreeing with Rep. Thomas Massie recently!

Went out tonight for some music (The Wandering Eye, a Ween tribute band), got to catch up with some friends, and get some hugs. This evening was a dopamine/serotonin/oxytocin boost that was very much needed ❤️

What is war? This is the first poem I’ve ever written. As a combat Marine deployed in two of the three worst years for WIA and KIA through the two decades of war in Afghanistan.

Well, this should be a record-breaking day nokings.org

The Trump Administration may want to nationalize voting. We won’t let them.

Some thoughts from Maggie/Melania this morning. That ending, though.😆

Georgia announced this past week that an investigation concluded, I don’t know why it took over a year, and Elon Musk committed voter fraud in Georgia. He successfully did this in the swing state of Georgia, so most likely his did this in other states.We could have had a President Harris.

If y'all are curious what the co-founder and CEO of Anthropic, Dario Amodei, would've done in 1933 if Hitler had asked him to make his technology compatible for the Nazi government to gather surveillance on German citizens... you now have your answer. Amodi is an American hero.

Anyway the risk profile for Platner isn’t Fetterman, it’s Gabbard

URGENT: A newborn baby is being sent to Dilley Detention Center, which is in the midst of RSV and Measles outbreaks. Those diseases are DEADLY to newborn babies. This is the utmost in cruelty! Repost and sign the letter to Kristi Noem demanding those babies' release!

Last night, the President made a mockery of the affordability crisis, and failed to acknowledge how his tariffs are making it worse. These tariffs are a tax on Maine people, they're unconstitutional, and they have to stop.

Our favorite moment from last night! Way to go Rep. Al Green!

That intro is bullshit. I mean the "establishment" "getting it wrong" part. It's lazy, sloppy, uninformed. One example: treating Platner like a progressive hero while smearing Mills as the do nothing compromiser. WHich one stood up to Trump in defense of trans kids?

While Donald Trump spews lies today, let’s not forget about what he is hiding in the Epstein files. What was uncovered today clearly shows the Justice Department is protecting Donald Trump instead of survivors. It is despicable.

Being great on the ice isn’t enough. When the 🇺🇸 hockey team had the chance to stand up for the 🇺🇸women’s team, they chose to laugh along with the bully-in-chief instead. That’s disappointing. Real strength shows up off the ice too.

We have the right to record ICE agents and other government officials at work in public. Use these tips to document agents’ actions. Read up on your rights and understand the risks at aclu.org/kyr_record-

What a remarkable young woman.

Don’t turn on the State of the Union on Tuesday. Make it the lowest rated in history.
