I’m tired of good laws not being enforced. I’m tired of good bills getting vetoed. And I’m tired of lobbyists and corporate-backed politicians telling us we need to wait a little longer for meaningful action. On June 9th, we have a message for them: We're done waiting. Our time is now. #mepolitics

The AI company Palantir (owned by billionaire scumbags Peter Thiel, Alex Karp, and Stephen Cohen) powers mass surveillance, invasive data mining, and the racist targeting of our neighbors by ICE. Our message to Maine Med is simple. No more taxpayer money for Palantir. @nationalnurses.bsky.social
Time is something we don’t get enough of in Maine. Too many folks are juggling multiple jobs just to survive. I know that life, and I can tell you it’s not living. People deserve better.
I convened a roundtable in Lewiston to hear directly from residents of mobile home parks who've been exploited by slumlords and big private equity firms. Their shocking stories have been mostly ignored in the conversation about Maine's housing crisis. When I'm Governor, that changes. #mepolitics
Maine is more than a summer playground for wealthy vacationers. Tourists are always welcome here, but we’re going to charge them a bit more in peak season so we can rebuild our state and refund the working class. #mepolitics
Organized labor won us the weekend. It won us a 40-hour workweek. It won us time to live our lives for ourselves. Ever since then, corporations, billionaires, and their hired politicians have been trying to claw that time away from us. We're not going to let them. #MayDay #mepolitics
No matter what you call it, cutting taxes for the rich is the biggest scam in history. #mepolitics
Today I introduced my plan to: ✅ Double the millionaires tax ✅ Deliver property tax relief ✅ End LePage’s tax cuts for the rich ✅ Improve education, healthcare, and infrastructure ✅ Refund the working class I am told the wealthy elite aren’t going to like it. Unfortunately for them, I don’t care.
As Governor of Maine, I will pass the strongest labor laws in this country. Not only that, but I’ll do what our previous governors haven’t: I’ll damn well enforce them. #mepolitics
I know what it's like to work in the woods all week and still worry about how you're going to make it to payday. The working class in Maine deserves a governor who has our backs, not one who breaks our backs for the benefit of the wealthy and powerful.
Oregon is the gold standard when it comes to running fair, accurate and inclusive vote-by-mail elections. We'll continue to work with local election offices to make Oregon continues to lead in high turnout, low costs and high security elections. #orpol

Add no felonies as a qualification for POTUS 🇺🇸 “This, sir, is my great objection to the Constitution, that there is no true responsibility and the preservation of our liberty depends on the single chance of men being virtuous enough to make laws to punish themselves.” Patrick Henry June 5, 1788
What changes when we see ideological extremism as a choice rather than a loss of agency? Extremism is an active choice, it is not simple brainwashing. Agency still exists. #Ideology, #Responsibility, #Psychology

Palmer Luckey, co-founder of defense tech company Anduril, recently warned that America’s defense systems are quietly dependent on the enemy’s factories. America chased margins, lost its industrial muscle, and turned engineers into designers while the China captured the actual builders.
