REV. BLACK (who was shot in the head with a pepper ball): “If this is what they’re doing to pastors, journalists, teachers, mothers, and the elderly gathered to sing and pray outside ICE facilities… what might they be doing to our neighbors who are behind those walls?”

It’s not right. It’s not necessary. But, together, we can change it next November.

Over 50,000 people in Maine will see their average costs more than double and about 8,000 will lose their health insurance altogether. These are our friends and neighbors who simply won’t be able to afford the lifesaving care they need for peace of mind and financial stability.

Today, as ACA open enrollment officially begins, hardworking people all across our state are beginning to receive notices that their health insurance costs will soar next year because Republicans in Congress, including Susan Collins, have not taken action.

Yep! That is the article I excerpted and linked to in the post I reposted in that thread. 👇 bsky.app/profile/maud...

Best treat of the night.

This man was violently detained by ICE on his way home from work. He kept shouting that he wasn’t a criminal and that he only wanted to be with his family.

UPDATE: We now know the name of the suspended Baltimore Police Officer seen in this viral video out of North Baltimore Park Heights. An investigation is pending, per BPD.

First, they financially crippled the farmers. Now, they're acquiring the land. The purchase is the calculated endgame of their strategy.

They lied to her and didn't know she is a lawyer.
This badass women didn’t back down 👏

Without SNAP: Finding Assistance in Uncertain Times Without SNAP: Finding Assistance in Uncertain Times Due to the completely preventable shutdown, the USDA says “the well has run dry” in regards to SNAP benefits. Beginning November 1st, SNAP benefits...

As SNAP benefits run dry, 'grocery buddies' are footing their neighbors' food bills With federal food aid frozen during the government shutdown, there has been a wave of people rushing to help — sending gift cards or buying groceries for SNAP recipients in their community.

With Federal food aid in limbo, there has been a wave of people nationwide on social media participating in an informal grocery buddy system until benefits are restored. Some "buddies" are sending gift cards, while others are shopping and dropping off groceries.

I'm getting French Revolution vibes right now.

BAD VETTING

Democratic political strategists MUST vet their candidates better

“Within a few minutes of talking to him, I was, like, ‘This guy owes it to the country to run for Senate,’ ” Morris Katz recalled, of his 1st meeting with Platner

Katz made up his mind in "a few minutes" about Platner

These people have no understanding of the damage Fetterman did to the Democratic Party. If they did, they would understand how little appetite we have for a Maine version, which is what Platner looks like.

He needs to fire his top staffers and hire people who understand politics.

Losing SNAP and WIC benefits doesn’t just affect individuals. Many small grocery stores will be affected by the lost revenue.

Amish people do vaccinate - and autism exists in Amish communities – Full Fact Social media claims that autism is less prevalent among Amish people because they don’t get vaccinated aren’t supported by the evidence.

This wouldn’t be true if we had #SinglePayer #UniversalHealthCare like #MedicareForAll.

Zohran Mamdani has been attacked unmercifully, yet has remained upbeat and answered his critics with intelligence and grace.

Platner is in an entirely other league. He's whining; he's blaming others for his own mistakes; he's playing the victim, it's pitiful. He's toast.

Susan Collins would have so much ammunition against Platner if he ran. The fact he voted for HER, plus all his racist, homophobic, misogynistic clearly stated opinions; his employment at Blackwater & the fact he didn't understand his own NAZI tattoo for 18 years ...

Sheeeesh! He'd be a sitting duck

This is not good news for the Graham Platner campaign. It implies finanical irregularities are taking place, in addition to the various negative revelations from Platner's social media postings four and five years ago.
