The truest thing JD Vance has said in a long, long time.

JD Vance: "Gas prices are too high ... they skyrocket every time some tinpot dictator decides to throw a tantrum"

It all comes down to Maine. It comes down to us. We know what’s at stake. We know that a vote for Susan Collins is a vote for Donald Trump. Let’s win this thing and take back the Senate.

The average price of heating oil in Maine hit $5.77 a gallon last week. That’s a 74% increase from 2025. This is a disaster for Mainers, half of whom rely on heating oil. At a time when food and fuel costs are rising and millions are struggling, many families will be forced to make hard choices.

I’m sorry… Washington is pushing a radical agenda? The same Washington you’ve worked in since I was 3 years old? Ideological trends like telling us you don’t want “””biological boys””” in girls sports? Get lost.

A Florida grand jury found the DeSantis administration “misappropriated” $10 million meant to provide health insurance for poor children. Part of a “sophisticated scheme to fund political activities,” the money was funneled through multiple organizations before reaching two PACs and the Florida GOP.

Sec. Rollins says the goal of SNAP is to kick people off. More than 4.5 million people lost their food assistance benefits in the past year thanks to the Republican spending bill signed into law last year.

Nothing to see here, folks. Just the president of the United States standing outside the White House and advertising for a private company after it gave him a campaign contribution.

Trump: "It was given free of charge by Scotts Miracle-Gro. Scotts. A great company. They actually contributed to my campaign ... I want to thank Scotts."

ICE killed Johan Durán Guerrero a month ago today. Five weeks after Susan Collins handed them $70 billion. Now she’s bragging about cameras. We don’t need ICE filmed. We need ICE gone. Out of Maine. Abolished. The agents who killed him prosecuted. Vote her out.

Next week in Biddeford, Democrats on the House Homeland Security Committee and I are doing what Republicans in Congress refuse to do: holding a hearing on the tragic killing of Johan Sebastián Durán Guerrero by ICE.

This is an INSANE spin.

Kevin Hassett on Fox News argues that if you exclude the sectors that lost hundreds of thousands of jobs, "you actually had a number that was about plus 100,000" 🙃

Paxton has his aide step and doesn't answer when someone asks him "how come on a government salary you own over 15 houses?"

To think it comes down to one stance is laughable. Democrats are a big tent party. But when you vote with Trump and Republicans 25-30% of the time, the question becomes why. Is it cause you negotiated a win in the bill/etc? Or is it political motives? Or you just agree with their platform more?

Remarkable camera angle of President Trump as he listens to Wall Street Journal reporters receiving an award for their investigation into Trump’s relationship with Jeffrey Epstein — which they pursued despite Trump’s threats and lawsuit.

“Don’t worry, Pete. That little speech I read was just for the voters back home. I have to put on these little shows to convince them I’m independent. You will get the $1.5 trillion for your wars even though I just gave ICE unlimited funding to run wild. We’ll just borrow more.”

In a free country, failing to comply with law enforcement does not give the state license to murder you

Homan on people getting killed by ICE: "It comes down to one simple fact -- these people failed to comply with law enforcement ... all they had to do is comply. If they did, they'd be alive today."

I stand with our neighbors in Biddeford – a town that has always welcomed immigrants, including my own grandparents who came from Quebec to work in the textile mills. Our city is strong because of ALL of our neighbors.

Dear god help us all. When will this war end???

BREAKING: The U.S. military said it had completed its latest round of airstrikes targeting Iran after hitting some 140 targets. Iran apparently responded with strikes targeting Bahrain, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates.

A campaign destroyed by 0 vetting.

Graham Platner’s bid for the Senate inspired progressive Democrats. But the campaign, which he suspended Wednesday, was messy, disorganized and ultimately doomed by a steady drip of scandal.
