Yes, Virginia, tariffs do work. Thanks to U.S. tariffs leveling the field against Canadian imports, the Ashland Sawmill, an Aroostook County operation, is doubling its capacity from 130 million to 250 million board feet. Backed by New Markets Tax Credits and championed by Senator Susan Collins with her support of rural economic growth and rail infrastructure, this expansion secures 220 full-time county jobs. It is a massive win for the rural Maine economy, keeping local Mainers working from the woods to the mill, supporting the county's logging and trucking industry. This is what happens when domestic timber gets a fair shake and an American-first president.
The year is 1873. Your wife tires easily and reads too much. The doctor prescribes the rest cure: six weeks flat in bed, no books, no visitors, fed on milk, forbidden to sit up without his permission. The man who devised it is the most famous nerve specialist in America, and the women come out of it quieter, which is taken as the cure.
The year is 1915. The hospital has a new way of delivering your child. Morphine, then scopolamine, and the mother wakes two days later with a baby she cannot remember having. They call it twilight sleep. The women are strapped into padded cots so they do not hurt themselves while they scream, and the straps are the modern part. The babies arrive blue and slow to breathe.
The year is 1945. The truck comes down your street fogging DDT, and the children run behind it in the white cloud because the man on the back says it is harmless. At the beach it is sprayed over the bathers on their towels. It goes on the cattle, over the barn, and across the kitchen table.
The year is 1948. Your son has trouble with his ears. The doctor slides a rod tipped with radium up each nostril and holds it there for the best part of ten minutes, and you bring him back three more times. Hundreds of thousands of American children get the same treatment. The cancers arrive in their fifties.
The year is 1962. The health visitor tells you breastfeeding is old-fashioned and the formula is scientific. By 1972 fewer than one American baby in four is breastfed at all. The formula is skimmed milk and sugar, with the milk fat taken out and vegetable oil put in.
The year is 1971. The family planning clinic fits a small plastic crab called the Dalkon Shield. Its tail is a bundle of fibres that wicks bacteria up into the womb. 2.8 million are fitted in America before it is withdrawn, and the company goes bankrupt under the claims. It had been sold as safe and superior.
The year is 1983. The doctor says your arteries are the butter's fault. The dripping tin goes in the bin, the yolks go to the dog, the margarine goes in the fridge, and you have the heart attack anyway, on skimmed milk, having done everything right.
The year is 2001. Your 15-year-old is low, and the doctor prescribes Paxil, because the trial in the journal says it is effective and well tolerated in adolescents. The raw data, reanalysed 14 years later, shows more suicidal thinking on the drug than on the sugar pill. The company pays $3 billion to settle. Nobody rings the house.
The year is 2009. The government has spent around £500 million stockpiling Tamiflu for the pandemic, on the strength of the manufacturer's trials. When the trials are finally prised loose five years later, the drug shortens flu by about half a day and nothing shows it keeps anyone out of hospital. The stockpile goes out of date in a warehouse.
The year is 2026. The doctor has ten minutes and a screen. The number is high, so the tablet is for life. The weight is high, so the injection is for life. The meat is bad for the planet and the oil is good for the heart, and the person in the chair is as certain as everyone who ever sat in it.
Every one of those was settled, by a committee, in a journal, with a doubter somewhere being laughed at. The rest cure, the straps, the fog, the rod, the formula, the crab, the margarine, the trial, the stockpile. All of it certain, all of it printed, all of it done to somebody who had asked for help.
You were never the one who was wrong. You were the one it was done to, and the only person in the story who did as they were told every single time.
The apology comes a generation late, in a footnote, addressed to nobody.
The next one is being drafted now.
3 weeks ago I knew there was an issue.
I warned candidates.
Discussed with city officials.
The next week, it got worse. I reached out to local, state and federal officials.
That same week it got some national news attention, but totally ignored by local legacy media.
Then the redical left went on the attack. False attackers and lies.
We submitted a FOFA.
Now…a huge story…just days before election wraps up.
People talk a lot about wanting accountability, but don’t demand it.
Sad, actually.
A election has been compromised and Wednesday….I sure hope people don’t wake up and go…”what happened”??!
Maine AG Frey has signed on to a brief that seeks to ban AR-15-style semi-automatic rifles.
He did not issue a press release outlining his decision to have Maine join the lawsuit.
Noora Abd, indicted today for running a $50M fraud conspiracy, is a real estate investor! She bought six condos in Hallowell last year for $2.7M.
The Way Life Should Be ... Paying rent to foreign fraudsters who scammed their way to a fortune and then bought up all the housing in your town.

It's one of the greatest untold stories of all time.
GOD BLESS THE AMISH!!! ❤️
A Dominion contractor with two degrees, swore under oath in her affidavit after working 27 hours at Detroit's TCF Center that she witnessed MASSIVE amounts of clear election fraud involving late-night ballot dumps.
She detailed how her manager, Nick Economagunas (part owner of Dominion), ordered her there instead of the Detroit elections building.
She saw vans FULL of ballots arriving, photos of people carrying ballots out of a "Chicago warehouse," and at 4:30 AM, Mr. Baxter personally brought in boxes from the rear entrance.
She stated each box holding approx 600 ballots, totaling around 50,000 ILLEGAL ballots dumped onto tables just before a 6 AM shift change!
This is exactly the kind of election fraud we've been warning about that was running RAMPANT across the country during the 2020 election!
This box of Maine absentee ballot return envelopes was shipped to a residential house in Maryland.
The house happens to be the listed HQ for a Soros-funded electioneering non-profit.
Maine's AG closed the investigation with no answers as to how it happened...
21 year old college baseball player Davis Heller died on his sofa studying for a test, nine months after receiving a Covid shot. He had a medical exemption but @UofAlabama would not accept it.
Davis was an accomplished athlete with an incredibly positive attitude who said he wanted to be the “best teammate in the country.” He struggled with the decision to get the COVID shot but succumbed so he could fulfill his dream to play collegiate baseball.
Hello Washington Post,
Are these people in the group of 10 officials you mention? Because they're all over my files where they're working with the same ex-USAID officials plotting to rewrite the Constitution.
David Hoch spent 5 YEARS compiling research and evidence of daycare fraud in Minnesota.
Minnesota officials shut him down and refused to look at it.
Mainstream media refused to listen to him.
David was forced to take his research to conservative YouTube influencers because he didn't have an audience of his own and Nick Shirley was the only one to respond to help David get his research out to his audience.
Now, David is exposing MASSIVE fraud in the charter schools.
How much of our tax dollars goes into federal funding for schools across America that have high graduation rates?
What if the No Child Left Behind program is intentionally designed to pass students that don't actually meet the academic threshold but graduate them anyways just to KEEP those tax dollars through federal funding?
Then, they use those dollars to push woke, liberal garbage.
This could be in the tens - hundreds of TRILLIONS in taxpayer fraud. https://t.co/la4ec7XNIe…
WOW 🚨 Investigation finds Canadian Nationals who are Green Card holders that go into Washington State ARE BEING REGISTERED TO VOTE
- This happens because Canadians go into the Washington state DMV to get licenses
- There is NO CITIZENSHIP VERIFICATION
- They get automatically registered to vote vote when signing up and renewing their license
- They then get mailed ballots
The investigation also finds they are voting
“Went into DMV and registered because there was no kind of questions on their citizenship, and they naively thought that they could do it, or they just received in the mail a voter registration card. After renewing their driver's license online, and lo and behold, they received in the mail a ballot”
Just imagine how widespread this is in Democrat states. All these Democrat states that have automatic voter registration at the DMV without citizenship checks are definitely doing this. I bet their ballot harvesting the ballots too
I looked into this and apparently most Democrat states just have a box to check for citizenship followed by no proof of any documentation
States that do not require documentary proof of citizenship
Alaska, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin and DC
Absolutely INSANE. Our elections are rigged
This is not even real… a group of retired admirals, ex-USAID bureaucrats and professional protest organizers got caught on their own recordings working out the conditions under which they get to declare the government of the United States illegitimate, and somehow we are supposed to believe they are the ones protecting democracy.
Here is what @DataRepublican put out in Part 2 of the Democracy Files. The videos come from a group called Renew to Thrive, with Danielle Reiff and Paul Zeitz in key roles, and it sits inside a much bigger umbrella called the United Democracy Alliance, which she describes as the hush-hush control room for groups like 50501 and Indivisible, deciding when protests get deployed, the timelines and how to respond. National Security Leaders for America, 1,600 former military, intelligence and diplomatic officials led by retired Rear Admiral Michael E. Smith, is credited with operationalizing the whole thing. On tape they lay out a list of "redlines," and invoking the Insurrection Act against "peaceful" protesters is one of the most discussed… and as she lays it out, they shopped the idea around to governors who don't even have to sign anything, all a governor has to do is refuse federal troops and let the network do the rest.
Make no mistake about who Mike Smith is. His own organization's bio says he founded and led National Security Leaders for Biden, more than 1,100 members with an endorsement letter signed by 780 of them, and now he runs a "non partisan" group that just cares so deeply about the oath. But hey… I am sure it is totally nonpartisan this time.
And the very same morning the Washington Post runs a story about a small group of current and former Defense Department officials quietly advising governors, election officials and lawmakers in 10 states on how to prepare for the Trump administration "interfering" in the midterms, rehearsing what to do if a federal agent asks for access to ballots or machines. Different names, same message… the elected federal government is the threat, and the people who run the elections are the ones who need protecting from it.
Let me put it to you like this. They are building the excuse before the event even happens. They coordinate the protests, they decide in advance which government response crosses their line, and then they hold that response up as proof the whole government is illegitimate and the governors should take over. How exactly is that defending the Constitution? If a room full of retired conservative officers got caught on tape role playing how to declare a Democrat president illegitimate, the FBI would be knocking on doors before the coffee got cold and every network in the country would run it wall to wall.
I am angry about this, and I think most of you are not angry enough. These people swore an oath to the Constitution, not to a party, and they are treating the legitimacy of an elected government like a privilege they get to revoke the minute the voters pick somebody they don't like. As DataRepublican puts it, almost any effective pushback against their NGOs counts as illegitimate in their book. Where is the outrage from the people who spent five years lecturing you about threats to democracy?
Admiral Smith, Ms. Reiff, Dr. Zeitz… release every recording in full and explain to the American people, under oath, exactly what you were planning for the day after.
🚨 BREAKING: The White House just told middle-class Americans exactly where their paychecks have been going, and it's infuriating.
From the podium: "If you're a middle class taxpayer in this country, before President Trump came along, you spent half your working life paying for fraudsters and scammers."
Think about that. You paid every parking ticket and did everything the right way. Meanwhile, fake day cares billed for kids who didn't exist, and the crooks bought Mercedes, BMWs and mansions on your dime.
The administration says it's already recovered a quarter of a trillion dollars and is aiming for a trillion.
The looting is over. Time to take it all back.
Joe Rogan is visibly appalled after learning Meta projected $16,000,000,000 in ONE YEAR from scam ads and banned goods.
That’s $1,825,000 an hour, every hour.
ROGAN: “Holy sh*t!”
And here’s the worst part: when Meta catches a likely scammer, they don’t get banned. They pay a scam tax and keep going.
ROGAN: “F**king Christ! What do you have to do to get off that platform?”
Click one fake crypto ad out of curiosity, and your feed fills with people trying to steal your savings.
ROGAN: “If you’re charging more money, that means you know SOMETHING’S WRONG with this ad, so you want a cut.”
Nearly 6 in 10 Americans over 65 are on Facebook, more than any other social app. Meta knows exactly who its clientele is. That’s who these ads are built for.
WE AUDITED ALL 58 FOREIGN-BORN FEDERAL JUDGES SITTING ON AMERICA'S BENCH FOR LIFE.
I spent over a billion tokens and about 45 days on this deep dive.
Through this deep dive and the over a million court cases we have combed through, we have launched an American First Index (AFI) for the site. (More on it as we improve the metrics and refine deeper.)
Out of 58 sitting foreign-born Article III judges, 43 were appointed by Biden or Obama. Among those drawn from ACLU and public defender pipelines, border enforcement is blocked over 80% of the time and 60% of criminal sentences fall below federal guidelines.
We have added an interactive tool on bench receipts that allows you to drill down and look at how each of these judges behave on the bench.
This is just the start. The federal judges are easier to identify than the state level judges. I assume there are 100s if not 1000+ foreign born or first-gen American on our benches.
They do not judge on our laws, they judge on the culture they came from. This is a huge reason our country has lost its identity.
