Big Brother is watching, but now we can watch Big Brother right back. I love that MapQuest is flipping the script. Apple Maps, where you at?!

More money is being spent on negative advertising in Maine’s Senate race than the state’s entire federal allotment for heating assistance this winter.

ICE Has Been Dumping Protester Photos Into a Palantir Database DHS agents not only tracked and intimidated people observing ICE activity in Maine, but stored information about them in a Palantir-built database, newly unsealed court filings say.

She's more offended about being called out for bribery than she is about casting the deciding vote that helped gut voting rights and bodily autonomy. Maine will take out this trash in six weeks.

Maine Public's chief political correspondent Steve Mistler spoke with ProPublica reporter Molly Redden about what she discovered during her reporting. https://bit.ly/4d0wCFi

footage is making the rounds on Facebook of a canvasser wearing a Stronger Maine shirt (a super PAC that supports Susan Collins) stealing a package yesterday

Apparently people are sharing this far and wide on social media, which I think is horrible. This could cripple ICE operations. PLEASE do not share this.

A January 6 rioter who filmed himself drinking Fireball in Nancy Pelosi’s office visited another government office this week: Todd Blanche’s. It sure doesn’t sound like the payout fund for insurrectionists is dead. youtube.com/shorts/wJa3e...

The film follows Mark Perlmutter and Feroze Sidhwa as they treat patients in the half-destroyed Nasser Hospital—and their Palestinian colleagues, many working even as their relatives are killed.

Axon, by the way, is far more insidious than Flock. Their product is less conspicuous so harder to spot. It's much harder to take down. The name is harder to remember. And the foreign ties might mean your data escapes the country before you can stop it.

Want to see a brave young human absolutely demolish Flock cameras without lifting a finger? Watch this!

Maine nurses are taking on the hospitals and politicians who take Palantir money. Senator Collins has pocketed over $105,000 from Palantir executives and MaineHealth is using Palantir technology in our facilities. Nurses are saying: “ENOUGH!”

No part of the U.S. has been untouched by the terror and violence of ICE and CBP, which is fueled by Palantir’s evil technology. We mobilized across the country today to expose the A.I. giant's destruction and demand Palantir OUT of our hospitals, government, and communities.

NEW: For decades, Idaho laws have allowed parents who belong to the Followers of Christ and other faith-healing sects to pray rather than seek medical treatment as their children die. At least five sets of parents have lost multiple children.

You don't know what you don't know. New state data finally shows how private equity is reshaping Maine's mobile home parks — and what it's costing residents. I'm running for Governor to prioritize housing for Mainers over out-of-state investors and private equity, every time.

We’re hearing reports of increased ICE activity in Maine this weekend, including potential targeting of farms and immigrant workers. Our immigrant neighbors are part of Maine and deserve to live without fear. Please stay alert. Look out for your neighbors. This is Maine. We take care of each other.

Susan Collins pulls into town in a bus full of her supporters; then they all get off the bus; and then she addresses the folks who were on the bus with her as if they were regular Mainers; and legacy media covers this, pretending it isn't deeply bizarre. (Notice the guys with cameras.) #MEpolitics

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.

#ResistanceRoots Major General Smedley Butler was born on this day in 1881 in West Chester, Pa. One of the most decorated figures in U.S. Marine Corps history, he transformed into an anti-war activist and whistleblower. He exposed a plot by wealthy men to overthrow FDR and install a dictator. /1

Dave and Sara LeBlanc have been issued fines for installing six-foot tin roosters in front of their home, which the town says is a violation of local code governing signage. The LeBlancs say the roosters are comfort animals for their autistic daughter. https://bit.ly/4vOlkKU

Protestors in Portland, Maine March on City Hall to Demand Justice ICE’s murder of Johan Sebastián Durán Guerrero. Abolish ICE!

Today I made an unannounced visit to ICE’s facility in Scarborough, Maine. What I heard was unacceptable: no body cameras, no training, and no accountability. Johan Guerrero should be alive. Congress must act. Abolish ICE. End qualified immunity.

Security camera footage obtained from local businesses showed individuals who are believed to be U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers surrounding a car and pulling the driver onto the street, in events connected to the fatal shooting of a man in a coastal town in Maine on July 13.

Another Maine DOT worker was hit and injured at work today. This is becoming far too commonplace. My heart goes out to him and his family and I’m hoping that he is able to fully recover. We need to do much more to prevent these accidents and keep our essential public safety workers safe.

What’s happening to my colleague, LaMonica McIver, is nothing short of a political witch hunt. Rep. McIver attempted to access an ICE facility in her district, to exercise her CONSTITUTIONAL oversight duties. DOJ is clearly trying to prevent Members from conducting ANY oversight of ICE facilities.

Hi, Donald. Mainer here.   You did not, in fact, “have to go to Japan” to get a Maine lobster. We sold millions. Our fishery is quite valuable.   It’s a pretty big reason people come here, in case you didn’t know!   If anything is hurting our lobstermen, it’s inflation (which you apparently “love”).
