CNN brought on Barney Frank this morning and suffice it say he's in pretty tough shape

Former Democratic Rep. Barney Frank has a message for progressives as he enters hospice: "I think they make a mistake by taking the most controversial parts of the agenda and turning them into a litmus test."



The politics are rough on Gov. Mills’ veto of the data center moratorium, but what would you say to this community that has one under construction and really wants it for reasons that seem completely valid to me, as someone who pays close attn to municipal budgets in Maine?








The Democratic establishment spent millions on negative ads against Platner. The Republican establishment is spending millions on negative ads against Platner. Why? Not complicated. Because Graham is taking on oligarchy and fighting for the working people of Maine and the U.S.


Politico: Former Rep. Barney Frank (D-MA), a liberal icon who was a key architect of the landmark Wall Street regulations Democrats enacted in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis, has entered hospice care at his home in Maine. And as one of his last acts, he is preparing to release a book repudiating his party’s left flank. A champion of liberal causes during his 32 years representing Massachusetts in the House, Frank says progressive Democrats have “embraced an agenda that goes beyond what’s politically acceptable.” politico.com/news/2026/04/2…
