In Rockland, Knox Dems are doing a 10 AM No Kings Rally on June 14 in Harbor Park. The Audacity will have a followup nonpartisan No Kings demonstration next door in Chapman Park at Noon. Come to one, come to the other, or head to both! #MEPolitics www.audacitycat.com/events/sing-...

I still remember learning in grade school how Maine is downwind of the coal emissions from the south and midwest, and then in 1990, our own Senator Mitchell championed amendments to the Clean Air Act to combat the acid rain we endured. We can't go back. 😡 themainemonitor.org/maine-roots-...

Okay, palate cleanser! 😂😂😂 But FFS, please nobody give him any ideas...
