I wonder if Dan Moraff, the same guy who picked Graham Paltner for Maine’s US Senate race, was the same guy who said let’s run a 2nd @DanSullivan_AK in Alaska.
@MaryPeltola must be bullshit.
She’s going to lose because a Bernie Bro thought “this is hilarious”
The #DSA hates Dems
On brand with how he treats most women in politics.
Senate candidate Troy Jackson is doubling down on his refusal to apologize to Sen. Susan Collins for telling her to "shut up" during a debate.
DETAILS: bit.ly/4z8xL6s
This makes @TroyJackson207 telling @SenSusanCollins to shut up even more disgusting. On brand for him, but gross nonetheless.
They each got to invite 100 guests. And he jumped up and interrupted her and started screaming. Obviously it was a Troy/Bernie Bro.
A tribal endorsement is huge. Especially this year. And especially for @SenSusanCollins.
Even @JanetMillsforME refuses to endorse @TroyJackson207.

Bangor Daily News: Susan Collins gets the 1st tribal endorsement of her career
The Passamaquoddy Tribe at Sipayik has endorsed U.S. Sen. Susan Collins in her reelection bid against Democrat Troy Jackson, a first for the five-term Republican.

The only people surprised by this are folks like @BrianneKNadeau, and @Janeese4DC. Pushing policies that made folks much less safe should make them criminally responsible.
For years D.C. has held out hope that violence interruption programs would meaningfully decrease shootings and killings. A recent study finds they may have done the opposite. Now the fate of the entire initiative is up in the air, reports @jennygathright: washingtonsun.com/metro/dc-v…
DC Council is taking long overdue action, because journalists frame it as “going after ballot initiatives”
Changing the pay structure for 80% of an entire industry l-in a way that the workers never wanted, like #i77 and #i82 being prime examples of abuse of gathering some sigs.
The ballot initiative bill from @AnitaBondsDC has PASSED; Parker and Silverman voted against with JLG voting "present." There was much discussion around the bill. Catch up here. | Why Is the D.C. Council Going After Ballot Initiatives? dc.citycast.fm/dc-politics/b…
I’m sure @grahamformaine is going to buy @0fficialtomhard’s new hoodie.
Do we think Tom will play the Graham “I had no idea what it meant” card?
How many people who earn 6 figures looked at this and gave it the green light?
For #autismawareness even!
This is one of the scariest things I’ve read in a long time. Unions want power. They don’t want to help workers.
Ride share in Massachusetts is just the tip of the iceberg.
Gross.

This is what everyone who voted for i82 wanted right? “Fair Wages”
When you triple the wage for 80% of a full-service restaurant’s staff it’s a huge amount of money.
Perhaps including it in the menu prices may feel a bit less hostile. The biz still has to make up the difference
“We’ve heard of 3 or 4% fair wage charges….. but 20% ?!! which doesn’t include tip.” - Are you supposed to tip on top of that 20%? popville.com/2026/08/what-th…
I didn’t think @jamestalarico could flip Texas.
But then Trump screws the ranchers that vote R by undercutting them?! 30k Tons of cheap beef from Argentina?! While ranchers in the US, who have been feeding our families for decades go broke?!
@JohnCornyn must be beside himself.
The same thing almost happened in Portland Maine! A ballot initiative put forward by the DSA almost destroyed my industry, fortunately we beat them at the ballot box.
Seattle passed a $26/hour min wage to help gig workers. It made things WORSE.
Driver pay didn’t rise, but customers pay more, and restaurants get fewer orders.
“The actual effect … sabotage one of the most successful businesses in the city," says @judgeglock of @ManhattanInst.

If @katz_morris doesn’t learn to keep my name out of his mouth, I’m going to grant one of these interview opportunities and we’re all going to learn who knew what when. I am not a twerp from Tribeca trying to impress David Alexrod.

Who is funding the Income Tax Campaign? Hint Its the tax exempt public unions with their greedy hands already in the taxpayer pockets…
Excerpts:
“Public sector unions, which will directly benefit from the millionaire's tax, make up virtually all the contributions to the campaign against the initiative to repeal Washington’s newly enacted income tax, according to the Public Disclosure Commission.”
“…Heywood said the unions are clearly focused on benefiting themselves.
"Anyone that goes down to Olympia will always tell you, yeah, SEIU , they're running all the legislation coming out of Olympia, and so I think the PDC gives us an insight into who are these guys," he said. "The unions are self-interested, un-taxed, and greedy greedy grifters.”
Vote Yes to Repeal the income tax
