I am writing to protest the actions of our elected officials. I am outraged to see those who are sworn to protect our country and its Constitution behaving in unconscionable ways. Examples of these behaviors include destruction of our country, ignoring the rule of law, working against all existing laws and lying about everything to protect […]

The Romans knew better than to mix military personnel with civilian populations. This caused Caesar’s assassination. Most historians say it was Britain’s quartering of troops with civilians that made the majority of colonists sympathetic to the rebellion. If America’s “Dear Leader “can foment enough chaos with ICE, he may get his way. Declare martial law […]

With the ballooning cost of cars, one of the few options for affordable motor vehicles open to us working class folks are imported JDMs (Japanese Domestic Market). These vehicles can be legally imported, as many of them are 25 years or older, yet the state of Maine has made it impossible to import them due […]

Their common purpose: to make everyone in the country afraid. Tear gas, pepper balls, pepper spray, flash bang grenades and bullets, all part of the […]

I get so tired of the chicken hawks on parade. These frauds found a thousand excuses from entering into military service, with its associated hardships and risks, when they were eligible. When they get some authority and power, they act like the most bellicose and belligerent of people, never seeing a potential conflict they can’t […]

The administration’s attempt to describe how and why Renee Good was shot by the ICE agent, before any of the evidence had been thoroughly examined, is another demonstration of the corrupt way in which this administration attempts to hide behind lies and deceit. There is a belief that if lies are repeated enough times, eventually […]

Remember Renee Nicole Good, and all the other victims of wanton authoritarian violence in our country. Sadly, we can not undo the tragedy of Renee’s untimely death. We can carry her memory forward in our hearts and we can be motivated and determined to strive for the goals of justice and change in her name. […]
