We need more of this to show that piece of shit that fascists aren’t welcome here.

RO's avatar

Way to set the tone Governor Mills. You see that complicit Republicans and weak kneed Dems ?

Hanief's avatar

Unfortunately, Raissa has chosen to BLOCK me rather than address her disgusting affection for Eric tRump and a few complicit Arab idiots! Just shows you how easy it is for the fascists and white suprematists to dupe supposedly decent and peace loving moderates!

Her comments bore all the hallmarks of someone who cares and I actually commended her position, and all she had to do is change her profile picture, but then again that picture does show her true colours!

Hunterson7's avatar

Maine's governor is the fascist.

Deborah Wodowski's avatar

Please educate yourself before making ridiculous comments like that. A perfect example of a fascist is sitting at the desk in the Oval office signing EO's of fascism.

Donna Kuba's avatar

You obviously do not understand the meaning of tge word racist. Trump words and deeds are racist. Governor Mills us doing her duty upholding Maine's laws and protecting ALL of he constituents against the big bully in the White House.

Laurie Fontes's avatar

If only all politicians were like her we wouldn't be in this mess.

Ethereal Fairy's avatar

👆🎯Yes, instead of the craven lickspittles that caress tRumps ample posterior daily.

Adam Staymates's avatar

You went off over the wrong vocabulary word. The word was "fascist" not "racist". If she was truely protecting ALL of her constituents then she wouldn't be fighting for the 1% of them that are transgender who are putting biological women at risk.

Laurie Fontes's avatar

So just fight for certain people is that what you're saying? Percent doesn't matter we should alll count. Like you said she's fighting for ALL her constituents. Not just 99%

Adam Staymates's avatar

The 1% over the 99%. Where is the comprise to have 100% happy?

And just like that, you are blocked! Every now and then, a fascist will find themselves on Substack just to stir the pot. I just block them all.

Sarah Barr's avatar

Yeah I just blocked him too. He’s annoying

GKWELLS's avatar

Fascism is "an authoritarian and nationalistic right-wing system of government and social organization." A fascist would be one that leads, follows or believes is those ideologies. The Governor of Maine is liberal in her ideology and actually the opposite of fascism. I understand you may not like her but your label is incorrect.

The Educated Voter's avatar

The new right wing talking point is that fascism is a left wing ideology. I read it all the time on other boards. It’s like none of these people remember the political spectrum we all learned in school.

We will have to get more men on our side. Not all men are as horrible as trump, so the men who are confident in their own masculinity and not afraid to be kind and gentle when required, but will stand in support of women for truth and justice, will be our best allies.

Can you please change your disgusting profile picture?!

I like it. Shows what we are fighting against and fighting for. Methinks it will be easier to change the profile picture when the Big Picture of the current situation changes…

Marjorie J French's avatar

This DESPITE the crayon stopping all funding for women's health issues and wiping the word off the allowed list. " Feb 20 (Reuters) - Some U.S. Food and Drug Administration scientists have been told to stop using the words "woman," "disabled" and "elderly" in external communications, two sources familiar with the matter said, part of a list of banned terms that a White House spokesman said had misinterpreted President Donald Trump's executive order."

Leslee Miller's avatar

The good news is… As soon as we run him out of the office, all of those things can be put back in… And will be put back in! Talk about a waste of money.

Roseann Duchon's avatar

The Musk-doge infiltration of our data, the federal government firings which impact African-America. women disproportionately and the dissolution of such agencies as the Dept. of Education along with tariffs so far, are costing taxpayers $135 billion in this fiscal year alone. All unnecessary, self-inflicted damage for everyone.

There needs to be a Third Wave of women making their voices heard, collectively asserting themselves into positions of power so that a new future can be realized. The first Wave saw the Suffragettes in the early 1900’s that achieved the Vote. Then in the 1960’s and 1970’s we saw the Second Wave of women demanding and achieving more economic equality regarding finances, and of course, better Healthcare, Contraceptives and Roe.

But now it’s going to be necessary for a Third Wave to further advance the interests of women and claw back our bodily autonomy, which is being taken away again. We must further strengthen our financial security and assert ourselves into positions of authority, and power where we are crafting the legislation and ensuring equality and justice.

Elly MM's avatar

Well said! I’ve noted the pronounced impact of strong Women speaking out in Congress (par example); proud, intelligent, confident Women, Women of many complexions. It takes a confident man to accept a strong, assertive Woman. The current administration undermines the value of these Women and they will rue the day!

Let is celebrate the intelligence, leadership and chutzpah of this group of women leaders-/just a quick brain dump and I am missing many but heck, they are standing strong and making waves and doing Good for the people:

Janine Crockett

Janet Mills

AOC and the rest of the Squad

Gretchen Whitmer

Kathy Hochul

Maura Healy

Amy Klobuchar

Elizabeth Warren

Amy Spanberger

Katie Hobbs

Add names to this list, and let’s get more elected !

Ballard Graham's avatar

Bravo to Governor Mills! We must continue to stand strong against this bully chief executive, masquerading as president!

Veronica Alleyne's avatar

thing is, he could not cause any of the damage he's done were he not elected to office in fact, none of them can so, whose fault is it, really?

Dorothy's avatar

The fault belongs to the 33% who voted for him and the 33% who did not vote at all.

Veronica Alleyne's avatar

whoever, the point I'm making is, he didn't elect himself into office, it's we the people who do that & now that he's there we will suffer for it without exception

Marjorie J French's avatar

Well I am not one of the 33% either way. I voted for the woman. Yet I am forced to suffer for the other's HUGE mistake.

Dorothy's avatar

Exactly, Marjorie! Same here, along with the rest of 33 percenters who voted for Kamala.

Veronica Alleyne's avatar

yes, because like it or not we all are in this together but, too many allow themselves to become distracted by an us against them ideology over the important things like, choosing to vote for legislative leaders who have at least a modicum of good character & integrity & instead of applying critical thinking & logic versus the, my daddy & his daddy before him voted for so & so & by that measure so will I as their rights & liberties get whittled away until they've got almost nothing left save the hatred they've allowed themselves to become addicted to but, still somehow believing themselves superior because of an accident of birth that not one of us has any control over whatsoever anyhow, if we don't grow up already & I mean do it fast we will no longer have a democracy flawed or otherwise & every choice will summarily be taken from us never to be contemplated again & as long as people keep voting to put certain people at the head of things that is indeed what they're saying they want & personally, I like neither the thought nor sound of fascist authoritarianism

Dorothy's avatar

Tell that to the people who didn't bother to vote.

Connie Larsen's avatar

Call 202 225 3121. Any congressional member! Give them hell!

Connie Larsen's avatar

We must protest, we must call! 202 225 3121 will get any member of congress. Call daily. You can talk to dickwads from another state. I call them all. Especially, the rethuglikkkrussians jerks. Only takes a minute! Just do it!

CARLA HEISTEN's avatar

I still say he didn't really win.

Karen Downey's avatar

Because he didn't. He cheated all 3 times. When has he not cheated?

He cheated on his taxes-

He cheats at golf, and then awards himself a trophy.

He cheats on his wives.

He cheats by filing bancruptcy, and paying his workers.

He is cheating us now every which way he can with his greedy little mind, and his grubby little hands.

EXACTLY check out the Lights On podcast with Jessica Denson formerly of The MeidasTouchNetwork ( I think that it’s a podcast found it on YouTube lots of great interviews to this and other very salient issues in this horrific disaster.)

Deborah Wodowski's avatar

I agree. I have read many accounts of evidence of ballots for Harris not being counted.

Connie Larsen's avatar

I really wonder. N I so worry about’26! I think if it’s a “free n fair election “, the DEMOCRATS will kick ass! The rethuglikkkrussians have NOTHING 000 for any U.S. citizens! Except take, take take, screw, screw, screw. the middle class. The TAKE has started already! Eff Trump n his cabal!🤬🤬

Bluesmurf's avatar

McConnell could have ended this in 2021 but he did not. I never like McConnell before that, either. I do blame him - the people that voted for Donny the dumpster fire would not have had the opportunity if Mitch would have done the right thing after January 6th.

Marliss Desens's avatar

And then there was Kevin McCarthy's pilgrimage to Mar-a-Lago after the insurrection of January 6. It puzzles me that people still interview McCarthy.

Connie Larsen's avatar

Kev is/was so worthless. Imagine, a U.S. senator, one of the largest states n world wide economy, separating out colored skittles for Trump? WTH!

202 225 3121 call a congressional member n give them hell. Daily. Post the number n share!

Marliss Desens's avatar

Yet, there he was pontificating on Bill Maher's show and interrupting and talking over Kara Swisher, who was the only reason I was watching the overtime segment.

Deborah Wodowski's avatar

Yes, this should have been over after J6 happened.

DL's avatar

I heard and saw a Lights On video in which Jessica Denson mentioned that there is ongoing investigation that points to the squatter in the White House not being legally elected. I’m keeping up with Jessica to see where this goes and asap I firmly hope and pray.🇺🇸🗽💙👍

Ma Watkins's avatar

Remember those techie creeps taking orders from muskrat

DL's avatar

Check out Lights On with Jessica Denson YouTube on the subject of the illegality of the squatter in the White House even being there some legal points to its actual disqualification for that office.

People really do need to grow up in this country. We gonna play the blame-game the rest of our lives or do what's necessary to fight back and take our country back? That crap is getting really old, boring, inconsequential, and irrelevant now.

Jaime Ramirez's avatar

Trump was not elected President. He got there through voter suppression, purges, thrown out ballots, tampered voting machines, bomb scares & vote manipulation, thanks to MAGA operatives, billionaire technofascists & Putin.

Priscilla Spence's avatar

The fact that the US still has never had a female president speaks to the misogyny and racism still prevalent in this country. Women are stepping up into politics at all levels, but until we are 51% in both chambers and a woman in the White House, we have not yet completely arrived. Women still have to work harder, be smarter, "likeable" and yet be "electable." That means they cannot be too "abrasive, shrill, cold, or a shrew." No matter how stupid, grouchy, short tempered, or angry a male candidate is, we women are held to a much higher standard than any male candidate.

Only when we are in positions of power so that we make the rules, will lives improve significantly, especially for women and children. Women approach problems in a different way than men. We know what we need.

Ethereal Fairy's avatar

See: Canada, they took over the family courts, and are more equal there.

Marjorie J French's avatar

I absolutely agree. So do you know any women we can push to run for office? I am too old (78), too frail, and I know few who are willing to put him down publicly.

SLMontgo's avatar

We've had lots of practice.

Helga Wright's avatar

Just told my husband the same thing!

Regina Melton's avatar

More noticeable with each and every day. 🤔 Who came up with the “women are the weaker sex” phrase?

Winston Manchester's avatar

Probably a man like Trump who wanted to keep women down and from using the fullness of their power to speak up for others and so he could abuse her however he wanted.

SLMontgo's avatar

Underneath his Spanx suit pants with his very looong red tie hiding that there is no zipper because of "pull-ups," he's got paunch to hide and he's mostly bald under that elaborate, constructed "hairdo" of papier mâché, airplane glue, and flax.

Marjorie J French's avatar

He desperately needs a facial and a fix for his digestive issues, I have heard. I think a frontal lobotomy would work.

Shellison's avatar

I hear bleach works wonders.

SLMontgo's avatar

Have you noticed his nose? He claims he doesn't drink, but there is something sketchy happening to the end of his nose.

SLMontgo's avatar

Obviously, some power-mad white guy with a bald head and a beer belly.

Laurie Fontes's avatar

I don't know but I had a good talk with my 22 year old son before we voted. I told him I wasn't telling him who to vote for but if he thinks for 1 minute a woman cannot be president he needs to wake up. Then I told him look how strong women are. We have children careers we do everything. Then I reminded him who raised him. Sadly his dad died when he was 4. I said it was me I worked I took care of you alone the house,cars financing made sure he got everything he needed and most of what he wanted. And told him to just think about that. Sure there are fathers out there too in that situation but not nearly as much as women. Then we talked about policies. And I told him to please do his research as I mentioned a few.. happy to say it worked sad to say we still didn't win. But I knew young men just weren't getting it so I felt I had to say something.

Ethereal Fairy's avatar

Sadly, tRump's young son Baron, told him what douchebro podcasts to go on to appeal to the non-voting young men. And they voted for him based on the garbage he spouted.

"Well behaved women never make history."

Bluesmurf's avatar

That would be the case. I grew up with an extended family full of cousins. The oldest one, 4 years my senior, was a bully and announced to all of us that he was the "king of the cousins" and he picked on all of us, especially the other boy cousins, my older brother in particular. We had family on the other side of the my family tree who lived close, so being the person I am, I got in his face and told him he wasn't the king of my cousins and never would be. Then I pronounced clearly my full name, including my last name, different than his, and made it clear I wasn't impressed - this started when I was 4 years old.

I reminded him on a regular basis that he wasn't my master and he knew he couldn't bully me (I used to fist fight with my brother). He hated my guts until the day he died in 2009. As awful as this sounds, I shed no tears at his passing. He was mean, cruel and a bully his entire existence. The only way he stopped bullying my brother and my other boy cousin was because they caught him alone one day and they duked it out. The bully lost and he stopped picking on them physically after that, but he was still a bully.

I have never had a problem speaking truth to power regardless of gender and wouldn't have a problem speaking truth to that power any day of the week. I am with you all. Bring it on!

Joe Jones's avatar

Ethereal Fairy's avatar

He hates us the most, so we have less to lose by standing up to his abusive behavior. Still makes Mills a hero, though.

Yes! The only way to deal with Trump is to stand up to him. He’s a coward, and I’ll tell him so to his face, if he has the courage to stand up to an 80-year-old female. Hey, Trump, come and challenge me! Given Musk’s thievery, you probably know where I live.

Remember how dickless donnie shot back at Gov. Mills after she said, "See you in court"? He said, "Yes, this will be an easy one.

Janet Mills, victorious over the rancid bigot... showing the way.

Reminder, the only reason he appears to be the most powerful person is because of those who have capitulated. But resistance has proven that we are, not him.

He is actually not the most powerful man in the world. His position as US prez is. He’s a worm wiggling in a big pot of soil and is getting it full of shit. The only problem with this metaphor is that actually worms enrich the soil with their poop. He’s still a lowly worm.

We, the people, must join them. We can’t sit on the sidelines while the truth fights alone. Every voice, every action, every refusal to be silenced matters. Stand with Mills and other elected officials who stand against Trump and his capitulating GOP! Stand for democracy — and let’s keep the losses piling up for corruption!

Jaye Sors's avatar

Not only that, those who have capitulated find him coming back for more. It’s like the bully if you give them your lunch money, he’ll just come back for more and very often escalated so you haven’t appeased him,You’ve just dug yourself in deeper.

Would U. Turnin-Annefrank's avatar

I feel that people are feeling torn. While many wish to stand up, some are fearful of personal harm.

Those of us who are able need to plan a peaceful “breaking” of the government, similar to how the people of France protest against their government.

KingRayVet's avatar

We are France x 50. We can't do what those little countries did with one of this size & magnitude.

You see how they're ignoring peaceful protests. Right? I just don't get how many would rather live under fascism than risk their comfort zones. It's going to get far more uncomfortable the longer we leave this regime unchallenged for real. Full stop.

Marjorie J French's avatar

Our Pastor told us a story today about a woman arrested by ICE for the crime of publicly praying for someone, either someone ICE wanted or someone of the wrong color or some such thing. I don't remember the details. (I thought the pacemaker was supposed to make me better!!)
