Incredible. Scotland puts a wind turbine near Trump’s golf course in Aberdeen 20 years ago. He sues and loses. Then his resulting hatred of wind turbines now ends up with the US Secretaries of Defense & Interior fabricating absurd lies to justify killing wind energy in the US.

Hi, Donald. Midcoast Mainer here.

You did not, in fact, “have to go to Japan” to get a Maine lobster before you. We sold millions. Our lobster fishery is one of the most valuable in the U.S.

It’s a big reason why people come here, in case you didn’t know!

If anything is hurting our lobstermen, it’s inflation (which you apparently “love”).

Also, exactly *zero* Maine fishermen run their boats at three knots. More like 30 knots—and some go even faster. You should check out a lobster boat race sometime!

I think it might be time for one of your famous Oval Office naps, because you have ZERO idea what you’re talking about.

Big Bend has never needed a wall to keep people out. It keeps itself — with heat, with distance, with silence so deep you can hear your own heartbeat. For a century it has asked only one thing of us: to leave it as we found it.

This isn't really about the border. It's about whether we're still the kind of country that understands some places are worth protecting not because they're useful — but because they're irreplaceable. The Rio Grande doesn't know what a contract is. The canyon just keeps going.

What we decide to do to Big Bend will outlast every policy that brought us here.

[Sammi🦋 @StoriesBySammi]

Six weeks ago I told you they were coming for Big Bend. Yesterday a court cleared the way for border wall construction in the Big Bend National Park region.

Here's what makes this so enraging:

Big Bend National Park is one of the quietest stretches of the entire southern border. In FY2025, the Big Bend sector recorded just 3,096 apprehensions — 1.3% of all crossings nationwide. Border encounters there have dropped 74% since 2023. The land is remote, rugged, and brutal. It has always been its own deterrent.

And yet — a 30-foot steel wall is coming anyway.

What that wall will actually do: fragment critical habitat for black bears, mountain lions, and the endangered black-capped vireo. Sever one of the last wildlife corridors connecting the U.S. and Mexican Chihuahuan Desert — an ecosystem that doesn't recognize borders.

Block the natural movement of over 450 bird species that pass through Big Bend. Flood one of the darkest night skies in North America with construction lights. Slice through 100+ miles of the Wild and Scenic Rio Grande.

To stop 1.3% of border crossings. On land that was already stopping them on its own.

The administration has now waived the Endangered Species Act, the National Park Service Organic Act, and the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act — all at once — to make this happen. The first time in U.S. history any of that has been done inside a national park.

They awarded $4.3 billion in contracts. Steel bollards are already on the ground near Van Horn. Construction starts this summer.

Who do YOU think this wall is actually for?

It’s absolutely wild that you can be photographed on Epstein Island, evade hearings about your ties to a convicted child predator, and still show your face at an NBA finals game because you're rich and connected.

If that isn’t a broken system, what is?

Trump: I turned off the lights. And we took out, some nights, 25 ships, some nights 15, last 4 or 5 nights we did 25, 22, 21, 26, 18 and 14. Who else would remember those numbers?

The White House press pool has been called to the Oval Office on a very busy news day for a proclamation signing.

Here’s the view of the UFC stage from outside.

[Ron Filipkowski @RonFilipkowski]

Iran state media.

[Acyn @Acyn]

Frost on UFC White House event: It’s a vanity project. It’s using taxpayer dollars and government resources to prop up Trump. He’s building this entire arena at the White House at a time when people can’t afford to live. Nobody has any damn money.

Laura Loomer is NOT a member of trump’s cabinet or a member of any branch of government.

Hell, this chick can’t even get a basic security clearance!

Why the funk is this conspiracy nutto allowed at Guantanamo Bay and why the funk are WE paying for it?!?

HEY MAGA! 🤣

I’ve been saying this from jump. The Reflecting Pool was going to end up looking like a green swamp, not blue. I just didn’t expect it to happen this fast.

One day after it was filled, there’s already a ton of algae.

And let’s be clear: this dude vacuuming the bottom is only part of the process. Without filtration and chemical treatment, the algae is here to stay.

On December 31, 2020, US Rep. Jamie Raskin announced that his 25-year-old son Tommy, a second-year student at Harvard Law School, had died.

Four days later, Raskin posted a tribute that revealed, after a prolonged battle with depression, Tommy had died by suicide.

In a farewell note, the 25-year-old said, "Please forgive me. My illness won today. Look after each other, the animals, and the global poor. All my love, Tommy."

Tommy was buried on January 5, 2021.

The next day, Raskin was in the Capitol with his daughter and son-in-law during the Capitol attack.

Hours later, he started drafting an article of impeachment against Trump, and six days later, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi named Raskin the lead manager of Trump's second impeachment.

Today, Raskin is still one of the loudest critics of the current president, one of the most progressive leaders in Congress, and one of the strongest people — period.

Our current president bullies him on social media weekly.

@SethAbramson @NersFalco So which reason is it that trump always uses mail in ballots, illness or disability?

[Seth Abramson @SethAbramson]

In our form of democracy, there's *no role whatsoever* for the Pentagon in domestic elections.

Yet the president just *inextricably linked the two*, having already had his openly Christofascist War Secretary deploy the military domestically in 2025.

This is going to get so bad.

[Seth Abramson @SethAbramson]

Mark this moment.

This is where the endgame begins—though it might take two years to play out.

A President of the United States is openly linking the *Pentagon* and rigging elections for his party.

He is framing an authoritarian takeover as something the *U.S. military* wants.

[Michelle @Michell33650674]

Other than the Epstein Files, the biggest COVERUP in America is the fact that Musk and others RIGGED the 2024 election for Trump and some GOP members of Congress. Neither side of the aisle will ADDRESS it, but we all KNOW it, and both Trump and Musk have ADMITTED it. Democrats are too AFRAID to SAY it because they've spent so much time SAYING that "elections can't be rigged." Yet, PROVING it could SAVE America. I WILL DIE ON THIS HILL!

[Cuckturd @CattardSlim]

Trump cant allow anyone in the Epstein files to be charged because his name would come up in their trial.

The ENTIRE Republican party is protecting Trump & the Epstein Elite.
