@JanetMillsforME Then why did you do this? You could have done good things for Maine, instead you decided to make our lives worse. But you did sign up a record number on MaineCare.

“Free” community college isn’t free for Maine taxpayers… @GovJanetMills' supplemental budget is bad for Maine!

Lewiston shooting survivors and residents AGAIN went to the city council meeting last night to demand action and accountability over the misappropriation of shooting funds.

This scandal is not going away:

🚨 This is insane. 140 Maine “healthcare” companies have Minnesota phone numbers. This should have Mainers ticked off. There is CLEAR fraudulent activity in Maine’s welfare system. Here is my plan to END it. Most importantly, PROSECUTE the fraudsters.

Editorial: Trump Declares War on Fraud — And Maine Is Ground Zero

By Jon Fetherston

President Donald J. Trump has declared war on fraud.

Not waste.

Not “irregularities.”

Not “paperwork errors.”

Fraud.

Theft!

And whether Augusta wants to admit it or not, the front line of that fight runs straight through Maine.

Vacationland has quietly morphed into something else entirely: Fraud Land.

For years, concerns have swirled around MaineCare billing, nonprofit contracts, refugee resettlement funding, emergency housing programs, and a maze of state-funded service providers that operate with little public scrutiny and even less accountability.
Lawmakers have heard the warnings.
Audits have flagged concerns.
Whistleblowers have spoken. Investigative reports have piled up.

And yet, nothing changes.

Why do we have representatives if they don’t represent taxpayers?

Why do we have an auditor if the audits don’t bite?

Why do we have a governor if the buck never stops anywhere?

Governor Janet Mills has repeatedly dismissed or downplayed concerns about improper spending and oversight failures.

When federal findings have surfaced, they’ve been waved away as technical errors or bureaucratic misunderstandings.

But the numbers are not misunderstandings.

They’re taxpayer dollars.

Now the federal government is stepping in.
Homeland Security has already been active in Lewiston.
Gateway Community Services has come under scrutiny. The congressional Oversight Committee is asking questions about nonprofit leaders and funding streams. Federal officials are examining whether Maine’s oversight systems are asleep at the wheel, or complicit.

And the financial clock is ticking.
Maine reportedly owes tens of millions back to Uncle Sam over improper Medicaid reimbursements. Where is that $28 million going to come from? From the same taxpayers who were told everything was fine?

Bad job, Governor. Bad job.

Meanwhile, federal pressure is mounting.Dr. Oz has publicly signaled that accountability is coming. The message from Washington is clear: clean it up, or we will.

This isn’t about partisanship. It’s about stewardship.

If fraud is occurring, whether through inflated MaineCare billing, improper nonprofit grants, or lax oversight of “new Mainer” resettlement funds, then it is theft from working families in Bangor, Biddeford, Presque Isle, and Lewiston.

The silence from Augusta is deafening.

Legislators whisper privately that they know problems exist. They acknowledge gaps in oversight. They admit federal audits have exposed weaknesses.

But on the record?

Votes stall. Hearings fade. Reforms die quietly in committee.

The political class in Maine seems more afraid of offending nonprofit power structures than defending taxpayers. And when leaders respond to scrutiny by playing the victim, it sends the wrong message: that the bully isn’t the fraudster, it’s the person asking questions.

That era may be ending.

President Trump’s declaration of a war on fraud has changed the tone nationally.

And Maine, whether it likes it or not—is squarely in the spotlight.

Vice President JD Vance can’t get here fast enough.

If Washington wants to see the problem up close, the invitation stands. Walk through Lewiston or Portland. Sit down with providers, if you can find them. Examine the billing records. Follow the money.

The people of Maine deserve transparency. They deserve accountability. They deserve leaders who don’t look the other way.

Get the popcorn ready.

The feds are here!

Maine Homeschooling Surpasses Pandemic Levels

Roughly 1 in 15 (6.4% of children) are now homeschooled, which is well above the national average. School boards across the state are discussing this "problem" during Jan/Feb 2026 budget meetings.

As Maine parents grow aware of what is happening behind public school walls, they are pulling their children to keep them safe from leftwing political indoctrination and ideologies designed to 'rot'.

Augusta Democrats voted this week to EXPAND Ranked Choice Voting to be used in the governor's race, as well as state rep and senate... we should be repealing RCV, not expanding it!

@ICEgov Maine citizens WANT you here. We stand with you. This sorry excuse for a Maine Governor doesn’t speak for us. She was installed, not voted in legally. I STAND WITH ICE! #Maine

🚨 HOLY SMOKES. This just blew wide open.

Maine’s Democrat governor handed STATE CONTRACTS to a Somali NGO that REGISTERED MIGRANTS TO VOTE in the 2022 election…

…and now that same NGO is busted for Medicaid fraud.

Let that sink in. 🤯

Here’s what the reporting shows:

When Janet Mills created Maine’s Office of New Americans as a migrant resettlement arm, she tapped Eklis Ahmed, a former Gateway Community Services employee.

Gateway then received multiple NO-BID contracts from the Mills administration for so-called “community health outreach”… which included registering migrants to vote in 2022.

This wasn’t some random nonprofit gone bad.

According to Steve Robinson, Editor-in-Chief of The Maine Wire, this group was deeply wired into the Maine Democratic Party and still is.

His words say it all:
This isn’t just alleged Somali Medicaid fraud.
It’s Somali Democrat Medicaid fraud.

An organization with extensive political ties to Governor Janet Mills and her administration was allegedly draining taxpayer money while playing politics.

This is seismic.

And here’s the real takeaway:

It’s not just Minnesota.
It’s not isolated.
It’s happening everywhere.

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

This is what happened. It’s true.

[Rep. Nancy Mace @RepNancyMace]

Apparently m*rder is not a dealbreaker for Democrats.

🔥 Elon Musk just summed up modern slavery in one sentence:

“You work. You get taxed. You buy something. You get taxed. You own something. You get taxed again.”

It’s the loop of quiet control — a system designed to keep you compliant while the government spends your money on causes you never consented to.

Every paycheck, every purchase, every property — siphoned through layers of bureaucracy.

And what’s left? A fraction of what you earned, traded for a false sense of freedom.

Musk’s point cuts deep:
The problem isn’t just taxation — it’s how it’s weaponized.

To fund endless wars.
To bankroll wasteful projects.
To grow a government that lives off your labor while pretending to “serve” you.

It’s not public service anymore.
It’s public extraction.

Time to break the loop.
