Summing up the #MESen race at this point...

We've got a lot of heavy issues to discuss and a vulnerable awful sitting Senator but the press is going to focus on the horserace and what a bunch of self appointed online smearers regurgitate.

So much for party building to win.

Unlike this poor planning reactive hindsight BS here's the deal you need to make with the American people:

- You ask them to sacrifice
- You explain the plan & why
- You do so by asking their reps in Congress to declare war

It's harder but art of the deal type stuff.

Rep. Kevin Kiley leaves GOP to become an independent, complicating Johnson's majority Rep. Kevin Kiley of California said Monday he was immediately leaving the Republican Party to become an independent.

You know that Star Wars scene where Luke, Leia, and Solo are in the trash compactor with the walls closing in?

THAT'S WHERE MIKE JOHNSON IS.

Yes, this is exactly what I overheard at the grocery store and gas pumps, blah, blah, blah. Nary a peep about affordability.

Today in made up conversations:
The poor person telling the white man with a tie she doesn't "really know how money works."

How about they trade salaries and digs for six months and then we check back in on their "navigating the real world?"

On top of everything else, we still need to worry about the atrocities ICE continues to commit. While we worry about the war and the midterms and Epstein, they are continuing to attack citizens.

Of course, the 'ol paying $175 more means I can't afford a new truck for at least a week.

As long as you don’t need gas, groceries, affordable healthcare, retirement savings or constitutional rights, things aren’t so bad.

The spike in crude oil prices over the weekend led to prices rising at the pumps, almost immediately Companies and dealers are once again gouging consumers, so maybe it's time to pass a permanent #WindfallProfitsTax to punish these unscrupulous businesses

Forty year newspaper vet here...yes, the Bangor Daily News is family owned but that family is firmly in Susan Collins pocket and is practically a PR firm for her.

Oh MAGA, here you thought all that drill baby drill, fracking, largest oil producer in the world, Trump saying gas was way down, & being energy independent was going to save you from all the coming woe at the pump.

Cheer up, Donny will find a way to blame Biden.

Our undefinably immense universe is a vast cosmic web of over an estimated two trillion galaxies containing billions upon billions of stars with vast areas of dark matter and also this little square meter of twinkling ice crystals on a stream I skied by a week ago.
