Maine's Republican Party has strung together a series of humiliating losses -- with the exception of Gov.-now-Rep. Paul LePage. Relegated to near-super minority status, the party is going to need new leadership and new thinking if Maine's can recover.

“Harm Reduction”
A Bangor driver who had just gotten a dose of methadone was arrested after being involved in a car crash. He was charged with an OUI, but then refused entry into jail because he was "too high."

As originally reported by @TheMaineWire, Susie Wiles son-in-law was mixed up in some incredibly shady hemp business. Newly relevant with @calleymeans allegations.
Replying to @TheDankInformer
🧵8/X - Now the White House part. Asterra’s counterclaim alleges that starting Dec 2024, Worley boasted of influence over federal policy via his relationship with Caroline Wiles — daughter of Chief of Staff Susie Wiles — even claiming he could help arrange political appointments. teapawt.net/TheDankInformer/status…

The full story shows that Wiles son-in-law, Bret Worley, is in the middle of a scummy industry that’s bringing Chinese synthetic drug juice to all of the tobacco shops around America (which we also subsidized as taxpayers for Indian investors) themainewire.com/2025/08/a-l…

Vance came to Maine twice for Paul LePage in ME-CD2, and LePage won. So there's that.
How is Vance vindicated? He campaigned for every candidate who lost. He said “give us a couple more years” and voters gave their response to that. Vindicated? He lost.

Watch & hear abt what we're doing next. Federal judges are an elite caste in America, and the public is in the dark abt many of their machinations. In other words, they're a worthy topic of our inquiry. This new beat should be fun and, more importantly, extremely revelatory.
Announcement video coming this week. Our next long term (very long term, in fact) project. Worthy of our time and attention. It will be like nothing else; we're creating something that (pathetically) does not exist.

Umm... Are they ready for the extremely uncomfortable conversation about who is no longer going to be eligible for credit cards?

Amid unverified reports of an increased ICE presence in Scarborough, several protesters have posted up outside the ICE facility with ARs. Chellie Pingree reacted to the reports of increased ICE presence: "This cruel, chaotic, and out-of-control agency needs to be abolished. And we need ICE out of Maine. Period." The protester pictured below has been stationed outside of the facility for months on end, although in our previous interactions with the individual, she was not armed. Additionally, @WGME has photos of other protesters patrolling outside the facility with rifles:

Some stats on how Maine's UOCAVA votes broke out this election cycle. 90% in favor of Democrats -- and just 3% of military. Not a big enough cohort to swing statewide elections (yet) but the UOCAVA vote has tipped legislative majorities in the past and multiple races this year.
TWO MAINE REPUBLICANS APPEARED TO WIN... THEN CAME THE OVERSEAS BALLOTS! 🗳️ Steve Robinson, editor of The Maine Wire, joined me with some eyebrow-raising details about Maine's election. He says overseas ballots reversed the apparent outcome in at least TWO races. And some voters haven't lived in Maine since CHILDHOOD! Meanwhile, Paul LePage managed to flip a congressional seat while much of the state swung dramatically blue. What's really happening with Maine's elections, and who's keeping an eye on the process? Steve and I dug into these serious questions on "Early Bird With Ed Martin," on @RealAmVoice! WATCH! 👇

The UOCAVA ballots are a left-wing scam that has allowed people with no intention of ever returning to live in Maine to vote in Maine’s elections — and these votes happen to trend 9-1 Dem. On multiple election nights, a GOP candidate has won the local resident vote only to later learn that the overseas votes have given the election to the Democrat. Those overseas votes just so happen to be counted by the Secretary of State, not a local clerk, and the non-residents can vote by email. Indeed, it’s easier to vote if you’re a resident of Denmark who is never coming back to Maine than it is if you’re a lifelong Mainer and taxpayer. Democracy!

Immigration enforcement backfired so spectacularly in Maine, where there was a controversial ICE shooting, that Paul LePage explicitly campaigned on enforcing Trump’s immigration policies and he’s the only Republican in the country who won. Much backfire.
There it is. The donors. The GOP donors are the biggest impediment to enforcing our immigration laws. Always have been.
