so Janet Mills was on the board of directors of a civil rights organization for 20 years, and while it was a women's rights org her co-founder of The Maine Women's Lobby, Lois Galgay Reckitt was a Lesbian and the origination fought for LGBT rights

20 years worth of work shows she fucking care.

Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice Annette Ziegler announces she won't seek reelection in 2027 Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice Annette Ziegler has announced she will not be seeking reelection in 2027.

Another Republican justice on the WI Supreme Court bites the dust.

A 6-1 majority on that Court could be very productive indeed.

Ginny Oliver, the "Lobster Lady," spent over 90 years lobstering off the coast of Maine β€” and her son Max is keeping her legacy alive.

What an honor it was to present him with his family's original lobster licenses at the Maine Fisherman's Forum this weekend.

Bills to limit Iowa governor’s authority seen by Democrats as preemptive strike ahead of 2026 election Republicans are running bills that would restrict the Iowa governor’s authority; Democrats see them as an attempt to hamstring a future Democratic governor

Are Iowa Republicans worried about losing this year's open-seat race for governor? Democrats say that new GOP bills are trying to weaken the power of the governorshipβ€”something Republicans elsewhere have done when faced with a loss of the governor's mansion.

The leftist impulse to normalize the Trump administration is bizarre. An Iran war draft is on the table, Leavitt could not have been more clear. Trump can't achieve his goals regardless, but he certainly needs far more soldiers to protect the strait of Hormuz.

Ali Khamenei, despite his reputation, actually limited Iran in certain aspects to try to maintain the chance of relations with the west. It annoyed the IRGC deeply. Anyway, congrats to China, who will likely have, within five years, a treaty ally with its dagger at the throat of the global economy.

NEW: CBS News correspondent Scott MacFarlane just announced to the newsroom that he's leaving the network after 20 years.

If you make the claim β€œDemocrats are/are not doing X” and what you mean is β€œI’m told Newsom specifically and exclusively did/didn’t do X” then you are engaging in an act of intentional dishonesty aimed at harming the party that is the best in the world on this specific issue, it’s reprehensible

Originally they were making a bid to be, basically, the psychic wing of the CCP - to ride the wave of enthusiasm for qigong into a quasi-official position and get the same status that "traditional Chinese medicine" enjoys. When the CCP turned against qigong, Falun Gong lost out.
