Susan Collins, from the party of “states’ rights”, is pushing a bill that would trample local election laws and send sensitive data from every voter in America to Kristi Noem.

The USL is desperate to enact pro/rel to grow its fanbase, but the league office offers little support to its clubs once the expansion checks clear. No revenue sharing, and an average of two clubs folding each offseason for a decade.

So cynical to drop this update 2-3 weeks before kickoff.

Pete - Any chance of donating proceeds from the Big Deuce/Maine jerseys to an organization from Maine to support our immigrant communities also impacted by recent ICE Activities here? Maine Immigrant Rights Coalition perhaps?

Angolans targeted most by immigration enforcement in Maine. Community leaders tried to prevent this. The Biden administration declined to provide legal protection for people from the Democratic Republic of Congo and Angola. Now their citizens are top targets of the deportation operation in Maine.

Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century.

He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.

“Good afternoon. My name is [redacted] and my wife and I have been at OMDC since April 15 2025,” reads a handwritten note, wrapped around a lotion bottle that was thrown by a man held captive inside the Otay Mesa Detention Center (OMDC) on Sunday.

“It’s cold here all the time and the food is poor,” the missive continues. “For 280 days we haven’t eaten a single piece of fruit, banana, apple, orange, or anything fresh. We are all in one big room with no doors or windows. We can’t see any grass or trees. We are all constantly sick.”

Alabama has the worst maternal mortality in the United States at 60 deaths per 100K live births. For reference, California has 18 deaths per 100K live births.

But Dr. Oz thinks it’s “cool” that American citizens do not have access to good reproductive healthcare in the wealthiest nation in history.

Pritchard to the bench for scoring/spark and go bigger in the starting lineup (another defensive wing like Hugo or Walsh). If Tatum comes back, the Pritchard to the bench moves seems natural. Can still try and flip some end of bench contracts and a 2nd or two for a guard.

Speaker Johnson is lying.

He knows that counting mail votes is not “magic” or “fraudulent,” it is following the law.

Echoing these lies shows how beholden Johnson is to the Liar In Chief, but the Speaker of the House should be above such awful behavior.

This is disgraceful.

A headline graphic: Sen. Susan Collins still supports DHS Sec. Kristi Noem and funding for ICE

After two weeks of terrorizing Mainers and arresting innocent people, ICE and Kristi Noem got a rousing statement of confidence from Susan Collins.

Senator Collins: how can you sleep at night?

Video shows ICE leaving behind an infant and broken glass after arresting a man with no criminal history.
“There was a car seat in the back... There were broken glass shards all over it... There was just this tiny peanut of a baby. He was crying.”

Do not fall for this garbage. DHS came into my city with an offensive posture, conducted itself as an invader, often attacked residents without any plausible connection to immigration enforcement, violently seized people off the streets. Now it’s our fault people died?

There has been no deescalation. Not in rhetoric from DC or on the ground. This is a disgusting way to talk about a federal union worker who cared for veterans.

In her screams, the desperation of a community under siege by ICE - The Boston Globe When ICE arrested of Fátima Lucas Henrique, the video of her screaming as agents pulled her from her vehicle resonated across the state.

Someone should play the video of Fátima Lucas Henrique’s screams as she was kidnapped by federal agents on the way to her early morning nursing shift to Sen Susan Collins wherever she shows her face. This is happening to Mainers on her watch.

Screenshot of an X.com post by The Associated Press (@AP) stating that dozens of immigrant families protested for better treatment behind fences at a Texas detention facility, where a 5-year-old Ecuadorian boy and his father were sent after being detained in Minnesota. Below is a video thumbnail showing a crowd gathered outdoors along a fenced walkway; many people wear bright blue or red outerwear, and some hold signs.

After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.

they're executing moms and nurses in the street. they're using preschoolers as bait. they're stealing people's dads and grandmas and children. they're tear gassing babies. they're staking out schools. there is no remedy but abolition. any proposal that doesn't start there is an act of violence.

Every video I’ve seen directly contradicts the DHS narrative.

They say he approached the officers armed and ready to “massacre law enforcement.”

In reality, he was recording ICE then after they shoved a woman, he got in between them.

They then surrounded him and killed him.
