I had the opportunity to confront Pete Hegseth's bigoted spiritual mentor, Pastor Doug Wilson, and call him out on his history of hate, his misreading of the Bible, his hijacking of Jesus, and his cosplay Crusading.
It was worth it.
We shouldn't just have to accept the fact that gas and heating oil prices will remain high for the next year.
The President is waging a reckless war — with Susan Collins' stamp of approval — and Maine people are facing skyrocketing costs as a result.
Golden retrievers gathered on Boston Common today to honor Spencer, the beloved Boston Marathon dog known for holding a Boston Strong flag along the route.
Spencer passed away after battling cancer.

The rich are getting richer, while everyone else is left in the dirt.
While the ultra-rich get even richer, families are getting squeezed by a rigged economy.
It's time for the government to stop listening to the richest of the rich and start working for working people.
Historian @hcrichardson.bsky.social details the backstory of events leading to the Revolutionary War, once again deftly leading the reader to draw parallels to our own situation in today's America.
A most excellent read and an inspiration.

Now DOJ is demanding 2024 ballots from Michigan without a proper legal basis. Is it just a coincidence that it’s targeting swing states like Michigan, Georgia, and Arizona in the lead-up to the 2026 election?

WOW: A stunning new report in the WSJ reveals that military advisers intentionally excluded Donald Trump from the command room during the recent high-stakes operation to extract a downed U.S. airman in Iran, because they feared his erratic behavior could jeopardize the mission. 1/
The end of Viktor Orbán’s autocratic regime is a victory not just for Hungary, but for people who value democracy around the world. Congratulations to Tisza, to incoming leader Péter Magyar, and to Hungarians everywhere.
Today, I signed the supplemental budget into law — which makes my free community college program permanent.
We’ve made great strides towards making a quality education accessible and affordable here in Maine, and I’ll fight to do the same in the Senate.
The Roberts court has spent Trump’s second term not applying the law so much as clearing it out of his way.
National Public Health Week is a time to pause and recognize the contributions of those who work to advance public health. From biotechnology and environmental health, to health education, disease prevention, and beyond – we appreciate all of your work!
Thank you, @kim.senate.gov .
Thank god. Christ.
But seriously folks. We cannot continue to live like this.
Regardless of whether it’s all talk, when the leader of our country expresses plainly genocidal intent, everyone has to do something.
For citizens of all political stripes, it means rejecting this madness. For Congress, it means taking action to rein him in. Now.
President Trump's chilling disregard for human life and his threats of mass casualties are unacceptable and dangerous, and will dig us deeper into an unwanted forever war that has already claimed the lives of American servicemembers and civilians. It's disgraceful that @SenSusanCollins has rubber-stamped Trump’s illegal war that is costing American taxpayers a billion dollars a day. Donald Trump must be stopped. It’s time Congress does its job.
The question now is whether or not the Republican Party is comprised of lemmings willing to follow Trump over the cliff.
I'm not sure how you can be against removing this man from office right now. What will it take? A nuke being dropped? It's too late then. The purpose of impeachment and the 25th Amendment is to prevent that type of thing from happening, not just to react to it.
And here we go. . .
Folks have been wondering about Janet after she said she would not do two upcoming debates, though it's not clear if she'd ever agreed to do them.
Here are the debates and forums to which she has committed.

Hey Donald Trump is mentioned more than any person in the Epstein Files!
Anyway...war!
As thousands of amped up men are deployed in the streets and taught there are no consequences for killing anyone who refuses to submit to their authority, we should anticipate more violence to come.
After all: The violence is the point.
Elon Musk is now worth over $800 billion.
Tesla reported paying ZERO federal income tax on $5.7 billion of U.S. income in 2025.
Meanwhile, millions of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck and household debt has risen to a record high.
This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.
Important thread from @timothysnyder.bsky.social, American historian specializing in the history of Central and Eastern Europe, the Soviet Union, & the Holocaust (wiki), on the dangers of Trump, his unhinged Easter message, how Putin came to be in power, & the power WE have to stop it all.

“‘All I’m going to say is that I stand by my decision,’ she said…
“Much of the audience at the board meeting broke into cheers and applause after her statement.
Chants of ‘shame’ were heard as board members voted to fire her...”

Trump Continues Destroying America For White Supremacy, Greed, and Russia
Why Modern “Flood the Zone” Tactics Are Designed to Break Your Spirit—and How to Reclaim Your Intellectual Sovereignty as Trump and MAGA are Actively Destroying America

The Deportation Data Project, a research team that tracks immigration arrests & cases, confirms earlier anecdotal reports that great majority of those arrested in the Maine surge had no criminal records.
Many were considered "collateral." Unbelievable cost and terror for 12 criminals.

It's Trans Day of Visibility today. If you're trans and are raising money for something (I don't care what it is), reply to this thread and I will boost you.
If you are a cis person, take a look and find someone to support if you can.
Everyone give this a share after.
Still can’t get over the House GOP rejecting a 100-0 bill from the Senate to fund TSA, Coast Guard, and FEMA and… just going on vacation.
Complete abdication of duty.
The U.S. Constitution is not a suggestion box.
It means due process, equal protection, and the right to free speech.
