Why does @senangusking.bsky.social keep confirming Trump nominees??? He talks the talk about Trump being an authoritarian, then passes on so many opportunities to oppose him. He's letting Maine down.

Some advice from a New Englander: do NOT come for our Dunkin.

Plus, we have much bigger things to worry about than β€œsugary drinks” at coffee chains like Dunkinβ€”like feeding hungry families, getting toxic chemicals out of our environment, and supporting the farmers who grow our food (to name a few).

American servicemembers are dead.

Civilians are being killed and displaced.

Energy infrastructure is under attack.

Markets are rattled and oil prices are climbing.

This isn't a goddam game.

When deeply unserious people are put in charge of serious decisions, bad things happen.

STOP. THIS. WAR.

…I’m sorry, what?

We hear incoherent bullshit from Trump every day, but this is just staggering incompetence.

Nearly 10 days into this reckless and unauthorized war, we still have no clear explanation of what the objective is, how long the conflict will last, or what the endgame looks like.

We've got an actual friggin' dictator wannabe in the white house, and this is the focus? Glad I blocked them as soon as I saw how rude they were to Shay.

I know what it's like to work in the woods all week and still worry about how you're going to make it to payday.

The working class in Maine deserves a governor who has our backs, not one who breaks our backs for the benefit of the wealthy and powerful.

US equity markets are increasingly untethered from economic reality.

That has come about for numerous reasons: deregulation, algorithmic trading, legalisation of stock buybacks, now rampant insider trading, market gamification, etc.

But wealth/value concentration remains the overarching cause. 1/5

ServeMaine

As this Administration has made life harder for millions and trampled our Constitution, the most common question I’ve gottenβ€”by farβ€”is, β€œWhat can I do to help”?

ServeMaine connects people with volunteer opportunities across our state, making it easy for people to turn their anger into action.

WATCH: β€œEXPLAIN THE BILL, THEN.β€πŸ€”

The ongoing reflexive refusal of mainstream media to forthrightly describe the publicly known actions of prominent men who were accused of sexual predation was brought home to me so powerfully in the #MeToo era.

β€˜Sounds familiar’: how the US-Israeli war in Iran parallels Russia’s invasion of Ukraine Both campaigns have been framed differently at different times, with dubious claims of defensive action and a curious reluctance to label it war

"Shifting goals, unclear timelines and a flimsy pretext: at times, the US-Israel campaign against Iran carries curious parallels of Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine... the echoes are hard to ignore." www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...
