Waterville area voters turn out for Troy! youtube.com/shorts/elvQG...

You have to really, really, really fucking suck for your 8th grade teacher to come out and shame you like this. Damn.

Let’s go, Maine. We must elect Troy Jackson! “AOC stumps for Jackson as high profile figures descend on Maine ahead of election” mainemorningstar.com/2026/10/22/a...

Bolsonaro loses. Strongman is out in Serbia. The GOP next. Vote like it may be your last chance to.

Happy for Brazil!

Susan Collins Delivered Maine Up to Trump www.nytimes.com/2026/09/22/o...

As Trump barnstorms the country hoping to revive his base ahead of the midterm election, he is returning to an old habit: heckling protesters and encouraging violence against them. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/24/u...

Not convinced the tariff thing is even expected to move the needle as much as it's a gambit to channel the public conversaton away from Susan Collins's corruption, her betrayal on abortion rights, her RFK Jr vote, her terrible debate answer about successfully opposing Trump (never) etc. #MEpolitics

In Iowa? We bike. 🚲

How it started ➡️ how it’s going We need leaders like @troyjackson207.bsky.social who aren’t afraid to roll up their sleeves, get to work and help Maine people. Let’s send him to Washington. Get out and vote, Maine!

10/22 Former Maine lawmakers pushed back on a GOP super PAC television ad using an altered photo of them to attack Troy Jackson #maine #MEpolitics

I also hope she loses. More than that, I’ve been door knocking to elect Troy Jackson.

After our last post, we’ve heard from people reporting voting machine issues in South Carolina, Texas, and Tennessee. We haven’t independently verified these accounts. We also read Stella Parton’s account of having to correct her selection before casting her ballot in Tennessee.

TENNESSEE VOTERS: Check your ballots carefully. Local news outlets are reporting complaints from early voters who say voting machines displayed candidates they did not intend to select.

Trump owns it. Collins co-signed it. Thanks for clearing that up, Joe Manchin. www.bangordailynews.com/2026/10/21/p...

Susan Collins and Joe Manchin posing with a guy at left who used the same sword to try to intimidate Somali-Americans in Lewiston (tinyurl.com/x489mum6). Absolutely vile stuff. (He's employed by the Leonard Leo-sponsored disinformation outlet to which Susan Collins is also a donor.) #MEpolitics

“Everyone at the shipyard” knew the boat at the center of the Collins pay to play scandal was “government waste.” #mepolitics www.reddit.com/r/bangorme/s...

IMPORTANT DETAILS about the private equity firm for whom Joe Manchin – campaigning with Susan Collins today – is an advisor, and that Susan Collins has received more private equity moolah than any other candidate. More than $700,000 just this cycle. Follow @mainenewsroom.com. #MEpolitics

Graham was one of Susan Collins’ best friends in the Senate. #mepolitics

Thanks to @meidastouch.com for quickly covering this. Note that this is STILL not resolved. Hours later we still cannot post to the account. But there's no stopping 3,000+ No Kings early vote events this weekend. meidasnews.com/news/zuckerb...

Donald Trump’s White House ballroom is a money laundering operation. Here’s former pardon attorney Liz Oyer, explaining plainly. @lawyeroyer.com

Oct. 17 marks the 65th anniversary of the 1961 Paris massacre, when French police violently repressed a demonstration by Algerians protesting a discriminatory curfew and colonial rule. Dozens were killed and thousands arrested. www.jstor.org/stable/j.ctv...

🙏 Protect her

I miss Out of Town News: www.thecrimson.com/article/2026...

Overnight, this Eastern ICE charter landed in Senegal, a likely fuel stop, and has now landed in Sierra Leone, a likely third-country removal. This will be the fourth TCR to Sierra Leone. Migrant passengers have been shackled for at least 13 hours. There are likely more stops.

BREAKING: Former President Barack Obama endorses Troy Jackson for U.S. Senate in Maine: "Troy Jackson is running to be your next senator and I'm proud to be on board" Obama cites Jackson’s record on wages, drug prices, school meals, and abortion rights as Democrats target Susan Collins' seat.

Eight years ago this week, Susan Collins voted to confirm Brett Kavanaugh. And when Roe was overturned thanks to her, I sponsored the strongest abortion protection law in the nation, and I made sure that reproductive care was covered by MaineCare. Abortion is health care.

Hear from a witness of the ICE shooting in the Bronx today.

Historian Heather Cox Richardson sees Jackson’s bid for Senate as path to reclaim democracy mainemorningstar.com/2026/09/29/h...

@troyjackson207.bsky.social interviewed by @hcrichardson.bsky.social was so good. You can watch it here. www.c-span.org/program/camp...

Pumpkin spice season is the worst possible time for this to happen.

NEW: ProPublica revealed that the FBI was circling Sen. Collins over a defense contractor’s donations — until Trump gutted the unit in charge. Collins has since mustered a defense with a series of incorrect and misleading claims.

should be day 2 stories if Maine/national media pick up on fact Collins' lobbyist husband, Tom Daffron, worked closely - for years - with Scott Reed, a key player in the corruption scandal @andrewperez.bsky.social & @martinpengelly.bsky.social wrote about that in June zeteo.com/p/susan-coll...

Time to voter her out!

Lukas Graham, another support act on Ed Sheeran’s tour, also now withdrawing from the tour.

Maine. Troy Jackson is running on lowering costs, protecting Maine’s water, creating good union jobs, and making sure data centers pay their own way. He’s putting working people and Maine communities at the center of his campaign.

Shark sightings have gone up in Maine this year, but no one knows exactly why—or what to do, Tyler Austin Harper reports. He spoke with scientists who are mystified by the rise:

I found time between scheduled events today in Belfast to canvass with Maine’s Coordinated Campaign “50 Days Out” weekend. Response from voters is great! I received similar responses phone banking last year for Mamdani! “Thanks for canvassing!” “All the Ds have my support!” Troy, Matt, Hannah, & Leg

Okay everyone. Here’s the YouTube interview with @jimmykimmel.com and @jamestalarico.bsky.social You know what to do. Watch it. Share it. Donate. Bury them. youtu.be/WLDE9LrGpNk?...

Q: On the checks, we have $40t in debt. If your economic policies are working, why do you need an incentive for people to turn out to vote? T: I'm doing it as a reward for having to put up w/Biden Q: You also offered tariff refunds-- TRUMP: Not you Q: And that didn't happen T: You're the worst

If you've locked in your heating oil contract, you already know prices are through the roof. No family should have to choose between staying warm and putting food on the table. We need real solutions that lower costs and ensure affordable energy for everyone. Here's a start: end the war in Iran.

Thanks to anyone who can help support Jackson. We are way behind in cash & deluged in negative ads, but Jackson is consistently polling ahead of Susan Collins & running a good ground game informed by his years as a labor organizer. www.jacksonformaine.com

Susan Collins’ billionaire backers like Elon Musk are doubling what Democrats are spending on this race. They’re scared of our movement. Mainers will see through their bullshit in November.
