@SteveRob @MaineGirl1717 What does this mean? Are they reclaiming the funds?

That’s an insane number of borrowers for Maine. Roughly 3% of all PPP loans for the state, and almost certainly a low end fraud rate.

@RabidCatz You mean skyrocketing home prices happening at the same time as the Biden Border Crisis wasn’t a coincidence?
English
Just so everyone's aware. Do you know why there's a renting crisis why rent is so high. It's because your government pays absorbance amount of money for renters aka illegals AKA section 8 to live there. This skyrocketed rank in Massachusetts. It's happening here in Maine as well

“They’re giving ILLEGAL migrant families $30,000 to move into homes” Democrat MA Gov. Maura Healey approved up to $30,000 per family in housing support PLUS monthly cash, food benefits, healthcare, even cable. All funded by the same taxpayers struggling to pay their own rent.

Trump personally bought and sold millions of dollars worth of stock in technology companies and government contractors early this year, and many trades coincided with favorable regulatory decisions.

look, I’m not from Maine so what do I know…but I suspect the whole “Graham Platner selling oysters to his mom’s local restaurant proves he’s an oligarch” line of attack will not be effective…but again, I’m not from Maine so maybe I’m wrong

How any of these people and organizations qualify as non-partisan nonprofits is beyond me. They are 100% Republican operatives.

At his speech in Bangor today, Vice President @JDVance gave a nod to @TheMaineWire - a project of Maine Policy Institute - as well as reporter Jon Fetherston (@LocalPoliticsis) and Editor-in-Chief Steve Robinson (@AsMaineGoes), for exposing fraud in Maine. We're proud that the work we do, thanks to our generous supporters, can receive this level of recognition! Video: @WhiteHouse Photos: Garrick Hoffman Photography

@TroyJackson207 It’s govt fraud, not waste. Don’t try to minimize it. x.com/themainewire/s…

A truly remarkable turn of events... We've visited Legit Home Health Care on numerous occasions over the last four months. We've never once seen anyone there, despite the agency billing MaineCare for $7,116,267 between 2019-2024. Well, you will never guess which gubernatorial candidate has a campaign HQ in the same building:

While he's lecturing Mainers about government waste, I wonder if JD Vance will explain why his boss blew $50 billion in the first two months of a forever war he promised to never start.

A musket from 1776 can fire a lead ball at a velocity of around 1,000 feet per second.
Imagine what that can do to a human body. Yet under federal and most state laws, it’s exempt from gun regulations. Many antique or replica guns aren’t considered firearms and even convicted felons can own them.

Maine Senate candidate Platner dismissed PTSD as 'bull----' excuse for bad behavior in 2020 — now cites his own PTSD to explain years of incendiary posts
English
@moginstall @foxnewspolitics But he said PTSD isn’t an excuse for bad behavior in 2020.
English
@RR8871R @foxnewspolitics "years of incendiary posts" they are referring to, are his extremely mild takes posted on reddit in like 2014, over 10 years ago.

@aseitzwald The weird thing is how skyrocketing home prices and out of control government spending happened at the same time as the Biden border crisis. I wonder if they’re related?
Towns could always keep spending in check and lower the mill rates, but most seem to want to spend more.

I'm not sure folks here are seeing what's happening with property taxes as housing values have shot up since previous valuations.

@AnthonyMEmerson Why is that crazy? She’s a well connected nepo-baby. Of course raising money is easy for her.
English
One thing that's crazy to me is how little Hannah Pingree is resonating in the Maine gov race. She's raised the most money, has by far the most endorsements from political figures, had a prominent role in the Mills administration, and she's only polled higher than 3rd once.

Shah is cleaning up in Maine’s gubernatorial race. A year ago I’d say the favorites would’ve been Troy Jackson and Hannah Pingree, but they’re lagging behind.

Honored to have Attorney General Aaron Frey’s support in this race! Aaron has stood up to the Trump Administration and big corporations on behalf of Maine time and again on issues ranging from our voting rights to health care access. We’ve fought some of those battles together and both understand how much is on the line in this upcoming election. Aaron's commitment to stand up for democracy against the lawlessness of this Administration has never wavered, and neither will mine as Maine’s next governor.

I’d love to stop tweeting about Maine Republicans wanting to kick people off of MaineCare but that would require Maine Republicans to stop talking about kicking people off of MaineCare. #MEgov

Another day, another GOP candidate attacking MaineCare. Garrett Mason thinks childless adults don't deserve health coverage. Maine deserves better.
