My mom paid off her house in 2003.
Thought that was it. Thought she was done. Thought it was finally hers.
Property taxes were $1,800 a year back then.
She’s retired now. Fixed income. Same house. Same neighborhood.
Property taxes are $24,000 a year.
That’s $2,000 a month.
On a house she already paid for.
She’s 71 years old and the government sends her a bill every year just to stay in her own home.
You never really own anything in America.
You just make payments to a different landlord.

Maine Democrats looked at a candidate who downplayed sexual assault, bullied women, aligned himself with the Nazis, and called rural Americans racist and stupid -

If you're supporting Graham Platner at this point, you're not really frustrated by the moral corrosiveness of Donald Trump and MAGA, you're just frustrated that the cretins aren't on your side.
@nathanTbernard@DropSiteNews Costello got completely ignored from mainstream media and Democrats.
And in many cases the pollsters didn’t even include him.
What a shame!
The Democratic Party, all the way up to @SenSchumer to Bernie Sanders interfered and put their thumb on the scale for Platner.

Normalizing Platner's behavior, his tattoo, his Reddit statements as just typical working class millennial behavior is offensive to millennials and working class people.
There's a lot of room between Platner & choir boy. We can find candidates that occupy that space.
Today is primary election day in Maine. A growing number of families in the United States and most throughout the world struggle to make ends meet. The least we can do is vote and vote to make a real difference!
