Maine electricity prices are up 20% since last year. Instead of helping families, the Admin is using taxpayer $ to pay companies to abandon wind projects and redirect investments to LNG exports. Enough with the dirty deals! Congress has the power of the purse. Why do Republicans REFUSE to use it?

MAHA advocates are fed up with this administration paying lip service to their movement while delivering win after win for the chemical industry. Let’s just say EPA Admin. Zeldin did not respond well to being called out on his and his agency’s MAHA hypocrisy.
Lawrence O’Donnell and I discussed why Trump’s Cabinet must invoke the 25th Amendment. Republicans and his supporters can't keep brushing off these unhinged comments as "just Trump being Trump." He's doing irreparable damage to our country—and the world. Those who don't speak up are complicit.
Update from D.C.: Overnight, the Senate passed a bill that would fund the vital parts of DHS, like TSA, the Coast Guard, FEMA, and cybersecurity professionals without handing ICE and CBP a blank check. Now, the House needs to get this passed. We’ll see if Republicans can get out of their own way.
I was fortunate to be in Hungary in the late 90s and saw how their new democracy was flourishing. Over the course of past 16 years, Viktor Orbán has hollowed out Hungary’s newfound democracy piece by piece.
Trump tried to slap his name on the Kennedy Center like it was one of his tacky hotels. Today a federal judge made clear what we've said all along: He had no legal authority to do it. The Kennedy Center belongs to the American people. Now and always. How fitting that today is JFK’s birthday!
HUGE NEWS: The House just FINALLY passed the War Powers Resolution. Congress has, and always will have, the sole power to declare war. No lawless president can change that. Now, the Senate needs to follow suit. NO WAR IN IRAN.
Fishing and lobstering are central to Maine’s economy. But seafood + aquaculture are often left out of vital USDA programs. I was proud to support a Farm Bill amendment to make USDA’s Office of Seafood permanent, ensuring fishermen + seafood producers can access the same resources farmers rely on.
Democrats tried to bring another War Powers Resolution to the floor. Republicans immediately blocked it. Americans are fed up with this Republican Congress. The’ve given all of our power to Trump, who now has us engaged in a stupid war no one asked for. Killing in OUR name using YOUR tax dollars.
Trump can’t imagine why other countries won't help him with his reckless war. It reminds me of Vietnam, when LBJ begged the UK for troops—even suggesting they send “a bagpipe band” for morale. They refused. There’s a difference between supporting an ally and blindly following them off a cliff.
Apparently Republicans are fine with slashing the EPA by 20%, cutting water infrastructure funding, and eliminating cultural programs in our communities. As long as Trump gets his ridiculous ballroom and triumphal arch! This isn’t “fiscal responsibility.” It’s partisan BS—and completely tone-deaf.
Craig & Mark's brand-new story is now out in Kindle & paperback, and Paul Maloney also has updates there as well. In other news, I've started writing a new MM age-gap romance but heaven alone knows what the title is, LOL! 😁 #writinglife #mmromance

To combat gerrymandering, fight fire with fire. The Virginia Supreme Court struck down the citizen initiative for a new Congressional map. The legislature can fight back. Here I describe Quinn Yeargin's idea to use the state constitution to retire that court:
We have a president who doesn't even know what the truth is and is leading us into a devastating and costly war.
Trump says the ballroom roof is designed as a military drone port with 360-degree DC surveillance capability, capable of bouncing off drone impacts and protecting airspace over Washington.
I joined @seiu.org to protest Republicans' latest reconciliation bill which includes $350 billion more for Trump's immigration enforcement machine. Democrats have been successful in withholding funding for ICE, so Republicans are trying to abuse the reconciliation process to push ICE $ through.

CA runs their elections like a third world dictatorship nation. Results should be known THAT NIGHT! But you see...if you're dealing with people trying to steal it, this cannot be allowed. They need weeks, because it takes time to see how many votes you need, mass produce them, then send them over.
