Pingree is the only one who believes in anything. Collins is a national disgrace, but King and Golden vote for bad things and against good things to prove their "independence". Mainers don't want that. It's why Platner took off pre-Nazi. We're embarrassed by King's cowardice and Collins' existence.

Chris Murphy: "There will be pretty substantial damage to a Dem brand that has been rehabilitated if on the heels of an election in which the people told us to keep fighting, we immediately stop... if we surrender without having gotten anything, I worry it'll be hard to get them back up off the mat"

He lost in '20 because he couldn't manipulate the mail-in vote. We all memory hole that Reality Winner went to jail for many years because she sounded the alarm that the machines were infiltrated in 2016.

She isn't good for Maine either and she has ceded any authority Appropriations once had. She benefits from a corrupt arrangement with the @pressherald.com for favorable coverage. Her office doesn't answer calls and she hasn't had a town hall in decades.

Golden's "Vote against good things and for bad things" brand of independence/centricism alienated many. People vote for authenticity and LePage is authentically all bad.

We started this dialogue a few days ago on a prior post. No need to call me meaningless, I am. I am just a sock puppet account hoping our constitutional scholars are up to leading us in this moment.

I'm back to tell you your tone sucks and that is why you keep getting flamed. You reposted a colleague who said: "CA law is probably unconstitutional, but here are ways to make progress..." Bring that proactive energy and you won't be the "Well, akshually" guy.

The richest man on earth owns X.

The second richest man on earth is about to be a major owner of TikTok.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

See the problem here?

It's not that I don't respect your thoughts on the law (I am a lawyer). Your analysis may be right, but it is tone deaf. What is an acceptable constutional response when we no longer have 1st amendment rights to speech and assembly, a cowed media and craven elites?

You're taking heat because masked men are terrorizing and kidnapping people. CA is trying something to protect its people and your privileged response is "well, ackchyually"

So Trump and the brazenly corrupt Supreme Court get to shred the Constitution at will, but CA must honor it to allow his fascist thugs to stamp out what is left?

Creating additional hurdles leads to declining adherence. Don't minimize this. The larger plan is culling the weak. It is gross and must be called out. Susan Monarez is right here telling you the goals.

I am a Mainer and in ME-1, which she pretends doesn't exist. Absolute garbage constituent services. Blame the @pressherald.com for its absurd whitewash of her consistently harming Maine.

Kimmel yanked: Sen. Fetterman, can we call it β€˜fascism’ yet? | Will Bunch Trump regime shredded the First Amendment in forcing Jimmy Kimmel's off the air. Our 'leaders' still don't get it.

Pa.'s 2 senators, including alleged Dem Fetterman, picked the wrong week to tell Americans not to talk about fascism, Hitler

The shredding of the 1st Amendment that led to gov't coercion to silence Jimmy Kimmel is fast becoming our own Reichstag fire

Susan Collins vote for RFK Jr was indefensible and disqualifying. She knows, we know it, everybody knows it.

It can't be defended so instead she goes for a pathetic and inane attempt to change the subject. #MEpolitics

so the president who is intentionally tanking the economy, ordering the military invasion of american cities and indiscriminately sending innocent people to foreign slave labor camps is also in the child rape brag book of the worlds most notorious pedophile? is all that correct?

A centrist democrat organization is effectively a republican organization. No matter the label, centrists work for capital.

You do have a blind spot for the white maleness that made you a Republican for decades. This is drivel bait.

She is generally good. Maine is MA in CD-1 and coast and NH in CD-2. Golden is the worst "democrat" in the House because he votes against good things and for bad things to prove his independence. Mills just does herself.

Poll showing that Senator Collins does not have majority support from Republicans in Maine

Poll showing that Senator Collins does not have majority support from Republicans in Maine

Run to the middle - it always works! As a Mainer, Collins survives only because the @pressherald.com refuses to cover her with any integrity. Even with that, she is deeply unpopular. Mills and Pingree are popular - we don't need another Golden, so committed to the bit that he believes nothing.

Collins advances an evil regime with every action, but then show votes against it when passage is safe . @pressherald.com always gives cover. Maine has the most embarrassing federal delegation thanks to the PPH failure to hold anyone to account. What is the purpose of the PPH?

I wish @pressherald.com for *once* called Senator Collins on her role advancing patently malicious actors through Committee and then ultimately show voting against their manifest unfitness for the role. She owns Kennedy and Bove and all of the Republican evil. A free press would hold her to account.

It's Larry Summers. Yesterday he was asking to talk about the "President of Harvard" instead of him. Today Summers weighed in that the Columbia deal is good. And his brain is soup.

As a Masshole in Maine, all of the horrible national representation (Collins, King, Golden) is a result of the irresponsible coverage from @pressherald.com. Collins controls them and Golden and King are drafting off the press indifference.

I grew up with Mike Rigas. He is a key architect of this cruelty. Mike failed to stand up for his twin sister in a domestic violence crisis, so that's all you need to know.
