@TheMaineWire This is just terrible. @GovJanetMills needs to get involved.

Residents at a sober home in South Portland are currently suffering with no electricity and hot water. They are going to Planet Fitness to shower. After speaking with us yesterday afternoon, two of the residents were kicked out of the house that evening. They claim it was retribution for speaking with us about their living conditions. Management claims they were being "disruptive." Watch for yourself:

@EshaAA33 That would be an historic, epic failure if that were to happen. Can you imagine Kamala fielding the questions and decisions Marco so easily handles?

Marco Rubio is losing to Kamala Harris in a potential matchup, according to a new poll. The poll shows Harris with the lead. Do you think this could actually happen?

@MatthewCoast @RightisRightPA I chose to work part time when I had 3 small children and forfeit positions dangled before me in order to spend more time with my children and have less chaos in our family life. I don’t regret it. Yes, we also had to make financial adjustments. Many. It was so worth it!

@RightisRightPA It's true that many women choose to pursue careers for various reasons, including personal fulfillment and financial independence. However, balancing work and family can be challenging for those who want both. Supporting diverse choices and paths is key for all families!

JUST WONDERING HOW MOMS are supposed to work 9-5, drop the kids off at school at 8 AM, pick them up by 3 PM, stay on top of school activities, meal prep, cook dinner, keep the house clean, do the laundry, run the kids to extracurricular activities, climb the corporate ladder, save sick days for when the kids are sick, be a good friend, daughter, and partner, all while trying to take care of their own body and mental health…

@MatthewCoast It’s not just moms. It’s also dads.

@WHLeavitt Yes. The US must follow suit or we will be like the UK.

🚨 Japan’s new government just banned public Islamic practices: no calls to prayer, street prayers, or massive mosques. They’ve halted halal food production and Muslim cemeteries—everyone must follow Japanese burial traditions now. Support it? A. Yes B. No

@WitcheyGirI @LauraLoomer They do have a known record.

@LauraLoomer I’m shocked that you’re not trying to blame it on a transgender person

BREAKING: There has been a mass stabbing and shooting in Washington DC. 4 people have been stabbed and emergency crews are responding. It could very well be another Islamic sleeper cell attack. The Beltway is flooded with Muslims.

@save_democracy4 @thewebbie What exactly is antithetical to Jewish values? Could it be that conservatives don’t support abortion ? Or that they don’t support transgendering from one sex to another ? I assume Jewish values don’t support those evils, but most Dems do.

@thewebbie Although I will never become a “MAGA Jew” since I believe that it is antithetical to Jewish values, I still understand your disgust and disappointment with the ideological perversion of the progressive left.

My Evolution I used to be a quiet Jew. Proud, yes. I lit candles. I hosted Seders. I corrected people gently when they said “Happy Hanukkah” in July. I donated. I voted blue. I supported all the right causes. Justice. Equality. Coexistence. Tikkun Olam. Repair the world. I believed in a coalition of the decent. I believed that if you showed up for others, they would show up for you. Then came October 7th. And everything changed. That day was horrific enough. The massacre of Israeli civilians. Families butchered in their homes. Young people hunted at a music festival. Hostages dragged into tunnels. It was the kind of evil that should have frozen the world mid-sentence. But what broke me wasn’t only what happened that day. It was what happened the day after. The world shrugged. My allies were silent. Some even cheered. I waited for the outrage. I refreshed my feed like a man checking hospital updates. Surely the statements were coming. The solidarity posts. The “This is unacceptable.” The moral clarity. Instead, I saw “context.” I saw moral relativism wrapped in academic language. I saw people twisting themselves into philosophical pretzels to justify horror. I saw “Yes, but…” Yes, but occupation. Yes, but resistance. Yes, but history. It was then I heard the message loud and clear: Jewish lives are conditional. Conditional on politics. Conditional on optics. Conditional on whether our dead fit the narrative. For years I had believed antisemitism was a fringe phenomenon. A few idiots with tiki torches. A handful of conspiracy theorists yelling about space lasers. I was wrong. It wasn’t fringe. It was dormant. And antizionism was the socially acceptable packaging. Criticize Israeli policy? Of course. Israelis do it daily. That’s democracy. Call for the elimination of the only Jewish state? That’s not policy critique. That’s erasure. And when mobs chant for intifada “globalized,” they are not debating zoning laws in Tel Aviv. They are reminding Jews everywhere that history has a long memory. On October 7th, I stopped being quiet. I stopped whispering my identity like it was a hobby. Now I say it plainly: I am a Jew. I am a Zionist. And I will fight for my people. Online, offline, and everywhere in between. Since that day, my evolution has not been abstract. I have taken firearms safety courses. I have trained at the range. Yes, that surprised me too. A lifelong Democrat who once rolled his eyes at gun culture now sitting through safety briefings and learning proper grip and trigger discipline. Life comes at you fast. But here is the uncomfortable truth: Jews have learned, painfully, that depending solely on the goodwill of others is not a security strategy. “Never again” is not a slogan. It is a policy. I have reconsidered my politics. Not because I became radical overnight, but because I realized that party loyalty means very little when your own community is told to sit down and be quiet while it is slandered. I have cut ties with “allies” who abandoned us. Some quietly. Some loudly. It turns out solidarity that evaporates when it becomes inconvenient was never solidarity to begin with. And I have found a new voice. A louder one. One that does not apologize for Jewish survival. Zionism is not a hashtag. It is not a bumper sticker. It is not a personality trait. It is the belief that Jews, like every other people, have the right to self-determination in our ancestral homeland. It is the lesson of exile, distilled. It is what ensures that Jews never again have to beg the world to notice our blood on the ground. Never again means now. I am done asking for permission to exist. I will not debate whether Jews deserve safety in Jerusalem any more than I would debate whether the French deserve Paris. I will not entertain historical revisionism that erases 3,000 years of Jewish presence in our homeland while pretending Jews materialized in 1948 like a startup nation experiment. We are an ancient people with a modern state. Both are real. Both are legitimate. Both are worth defending. To those who stood with us in our darkest hours: thank you. We see you. We remember. History remembers too. To those who stood silent, or worse, who found their voice only to condemn Jews for defending themselves: We see you as well. And we will not forget. This is not about left or right anymore. It is about survival. It is about memory. It is about truth. Jewish history is not a museum exhibit. It is a living inheritance. Our grandparents whispered prayers in lands that wanted them gone. Our ancestors survived empires that no longer exist. We are still here. Am Yisrael Chai. The people of Israel live. Not because the world was kind. But because we refused to disappear. I used to be a quiet Jew. Now I am something else. I am a Jew who understands that silence is a luxury our history does not afford. I am a Zionist who understands that sovereignty is not extremism. It is dignity. And I am just getting started.

@Clingpeach @thewebbie You have no right to say who is forgiven and who is not. That statement is up to God, not you.

Educate me. You voted Biden in 2020 KNOWINGLY voting for the most antisemitic administration in history and then were surprised by 10/7. Now you feel it’s ok to stand on your soap box and say you have changed. No you don’t get that luxury. We were all screaming into the void that harm would come to 🇮🇱. You don’t get to whitewash this or be forgiven. It just doesn’t work that way

@RightScopee E

Mike Pence is considering running for president. Would you consider him in 2028? A. 100% B. 75% C. 50% D. 25% E. 0%

@WannabeMufassir @GovMikeHuckabee And so Americans should leave the nation that literally stole from Native Americans. And Muslims should leave all the lands they occupy since they took it by force and killed and expelled Christians who stood against them. Thats your logic. Know history.

@GovMikeHuckabee Let me just summarize your whole argument for you

When I sat down with Tucker Carlson on Wednesday, I was expecting a thoughtful conversation and that he would ask questions and give me the opportunity to actually respond--just like he did with the little Nazi sympathizer Nick Fuentes or the guy who thought Hitler was the good guy and Churchill the bad guy. What I wasn't anticipating was a lengthy series of questions where he seemed to be insinuating that the Jews of today aren't really same people as the Jews of the Bible. I'll first just say something I didn't think to say to Tucker, which is that Ashkenazi Jews, meaning those who families had spent centuries in Europe, are a minority of Israel's Jewish population, only maybe 35-40%. There are far more Sephardic and Mizrahi Jews inside Israel. But there's a good reason, as it turns out, that I had never encountered this theory that Tucker kept pushing on. That’s because it comes from some of the darkest realms of the Internet and social media. I think it's important to take a moment now and educate Tucker and anyone else who might get sucked in by this dangerous conspiracy theory, just as I have been educated this week. I'm sharing this information because it has been weaponized by very bad people to delegitimize Jews and strip them of their history. It's an idea that gained traction in the 80's and 90's with David Duke and other Klansmen and neo-Nazis. It has really caught fire in recent years on the Internet and social media, mostly from some of the most overt anti-Semites and Jew haters you can find. I don’t know why Tucker was so fixated on this, and I'm certainly not saying he knew the origins of this conspiracy theory. I don't know what's in his heart or what he was thinking. But I do know that the discredited idea that most Ashkenazi or European Jews descended from the ancient Turkic kingdom of Khazaria is bunk. It's also been weaponized by people trying to deligitimize Jews, to strip them of their history, and to call them "imposters" or "fake Jews." This odious conspiracy theory is peddled by the likes of Candace Owens and Nick Fuentes and by people who love David Duke, as well as Islamist accounts that make up false smears about Israel non-stop and are run out of countries like Pakistan and Turkey. But we know from genetics and rich volumes of written literature that the Jews of today can trace their lineage back thousands of years to the Israel and the Jewish people of the Bible. They are as connected together as genetics tell us that the ancient Khazar kingdom is to people living today in Turkey. And if Tucker wants to tour more than Ben-Gurion Airport on his next trip to Israel, I'm happy to show him places where Jews have lived going back to the time of Jesus Christ and even earlier. I sincerely hope Tucker will let me know when he actually wants to learn facts about the land and people. Asking me about conspiracy theories should remain on the fringes and not be the heart of the conversation.

@IanCarrollShow @EFischberger Who are you and Tucker enslaved by in order to lie like you do ?

@EFischberger It’s about 400,000 in Qatar vs about 180,000 in Israel. Really easy to look up bud. Hilarious.

Tucker hilariously claims there are more Christians in Qatar than in Israel. Amb. Huckabee correctly responds that Christians in Qatar are forced to live in ghettos without equal rights. He then asks Tucker what Qatar’s Christian population is. His answer? “I don’t know.”

@IanCarrollShow @EFischberger Number of citizens is what matters. Can the vote and hold office ? No? Hilarious.

Tucker Carlson says Christians are freer in Qatar than Israel. Reality: Qatar: ~350,000 Christians, zero citizens. About 6 churches in a fenced compound. No crosses on the exterior. No church bells allowed. Israel: similar number of Christians, including ~184,000 citizens. 300 churches. Public Easter processions everywhere. Bells ring every Sunday. One has religious freedom. One has tolerated guest workers. Stop repeating myths. Real Christians live with the consequences.

@CensoredHumans Hamas killed then for a convenient narrative—to convince people like you that they are the good guys. Do you not understand history at all ? Did you say anything about the Oct 7th attack on Israel?

Russia remains banned from participating in the Olympics for being at war with Ukraine. Israel is allowed to participate after killing nearly 73,600 people in a genocide, around 20,000 of whom are children. Can someone explain this to me?

@stelzner_n1150 You mean O’Biden. Yes, I agree.

I don't think people grasp just how embarrassed these athletes are by who our President is. They feel ashamed. They love America and are upset by the man who has divided our country, disrespected our allies, and spat on the Constitution.

@nypost These are the same people who said nothing when Charlie Kirk was murdered, who said nothing when Ashli Babbitt—who was completely unarmed—was shot by the police, who cheered when Donald Trump was shot at, and who say nothing when illegal immigrants commit violent crimes.

Americans are threatening to boycott the Winter Olympics after some Team USA members expressed “mixed emotions” about representing the Stars and Stripes.

@GrandDaughterX Yes. We are the only country who politicizes is the Olympics in this way. It’s shameful.

Should athletes who criticize the US on the world stage while representing Team USA be sent home?

@WHLeavitt A. A. A. Where is the noise ordinance anyway? Come to a city near you if we don’t all wake up.

Should the Muslim 'call to prayer' be BANNED from the public in all western countries? A. Absolutely yes B. No

@StandUpForFact Only illegals and those with a criminal record

🚨BREAKING: ICE is hitting Minnesota hard — armed raids on Somali-heavy properties. The Somali deportation surge has officially begun. Do you support deporting all illegals and all Somalians ? A. Hell yeah B. No IF Yes, Give me a THUMBS-UP👍!

@NBCOlympics you paused Lindsay’s race and rewound so we had no idea what happened. While everyone was texting telling us what happened. Why?
