I wonder why Donald Trump OK'd this hit on Corey Lewandowski. Was he jealous that Corey was shagging Kristi? Or did Corey forget to give the Godfather in the Oval Office a piece of the action?

A girl won the role of Seymour in South Grand Prairie High School in Texas. Then, the district freaked out because of Texas' anti-trans and anti-gay law. So they tried to strip her role and give it to a boy. She refused, so now they are cancelling the play. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Don’t forget: billionaires are using their grip on social media and the news to convince us that peaceful protests don’t work, our vote doesn’t matter, and that both parties are the same. They’re spending billions on it.

Folks lets share widely so we know Mainers see this. Susan Collins my look harmless, but she is just another politician on the take! Corrupt. You know Pro-Publica would not print unless they had the sources verified and the facts all checked.
