AUGUSTA, Maine - The Maine Wire, Maine's fastest growing digital news and investigative reporting outlet, announced Monday that it has filed a lawsuit against Gov. Janet Mills in Kennebec County Superior Court seeking compliance with Maine's Freedom of Access Act.
Maine Wire Editor-in-Chief Steve Robinson, the plaintiff in the complaint, issued the following statement:
"For 195 days, Gov. Mills has refused to turn over her schedules for three days in Dec. 2023, blatantly disregarding the spirit and letter of Maine’s Freedom of Access Act. The Maine Wire will not tolerate government officials who illegally frustrate basic journalistic inquiry for their own political benefit.
"Ironically, it was Mills herself, when she was Attorney General, who articulated the view that 22 days was long enough for then-Governor Paul LePage to respond to a far more complex request. Mills is not only violating FOAA, she’s failing to live up to the standard she has imposed on others.
"The Maine Wire will vigorously pursue all legal avenues to ensure the Mills Administration -- and all government entities -- comply with government transparency statutes, whether it comes to this specific request for the governor's schedules or the dozens of other outstanding public records that State of Maine employees are failing to respond to in good faith. Responding to FOAAs is not some added burden or nuisance; it's an essential and core function of all government agencies.”
“Janet Mills is not above the law.”

OPEN BORDER COSTS REVEALED
Republicans blow the lid off a program that spends over $56,000 per asylum seeker while spending far less addressing Maine’s homeless and nursing home crises
STATE HOUSE – Legislative Republicans held a press conference today to deliver shocking new numbers on state spending related to thousands of asylum seekers coming to Maine for free housing. The migration is part of Governor Mills’ pledge to bring in 75,000 new Mainers by 2029.
These costs have largely been hidden from the public and are now being exposed in an effort to demand accountability and a results-driven plan. Taxpayer money is being diverted away from pressing state needs as Mainers languish on housing lists for years or waiting lists for nursing homes.
WATCH THE PRESS CONFERENCE
Mainers List Their Concerns About the State
Today Maine House Representative Katrina J. Smith, District 62, a Republican from Palermo, asked the question, "What concerns you the most about Maine right now?"
There were over 184 responses, and here were some of the concerns raised:
According to U.S. Census Bureau facts, in 2022, per capita income in Maine was $39,718 and 10.8% of people in Maine are living in poverty.
Maine ranks in the top 10 states for the highest electricity rates, coming in at number 3 for 2024.
When it comes to affordable rent, Maine is the 5th least affordable state.
The cost of living index for Maine is 110.7.
In 2022, there were 151,212 small businesses in Maine.
Do you agree with the concerns on this list? What if any other concerns would you add to the list? Please add your concerns and suggestions in the comment section.
Please keep emailing me your local news tips, school/education news, community issues, crime concerns, issues you feel should be investigated, upcoming events, good news stories, neighbors helping neighbors, etc. to [email protected]

America’s Real Radicals
Posted on Tuesday, January 9, 2024
by Dr. Sebastian Gorka
|
They say “perception is reality.” Not quite.
But what someone thinks is true will shape their behavior, even if it isn’t actually true.
If that weren’t the case, billions of dollars wouldn’t be spent annually on marketing and advertising products and services you don’t actually need but which “consumers” have been convinced they can’t live without.
The same goes for the world of politics. There are perceptions, and then there is the reality. And knowing the difference between them in 2024 will be crucial.
So let’s start with that awful word: “narrative,” because the historic Presidential election this year will be driven by whether existing false representations of Left and Right can be broken.
The conventional wisdom, the DC narrative about Left v. Right has been boiled down for decades as: “the Democrats care about the little guy, for minorities and women” and “Republicans are mean, selfish, greedy and elitists who look down on the working man.” Then 2016 happened.
Incredibly, a billionaire reality-TV superstar real-estate mogul came out of nowhere with a message about the “forgotten men and women” who had been betrayed by both parties and about how we have to “Make America Great Again.” And Donald Trump won, the first time he ever ran.
Clearly the establishment narrative had failed the Left. So, what was to be done? Up the ante. With the violent support of astroturfed, so-called, social justice “movements” like Antifa and Black Lives Matter, the spin-doctors, talking heads, and communication “experts” decided to go all the way.
Building upon Hillary Clinton’s original dehumanizing language of the “Deplorables,” which itself was a version of Obama’s “bitter clingers” slur, the Biden regime and its lacks doubled down. Instead of deplorable hicks who loved their Bible and their guns, the language switched to something much darker.
If you were one of the 60 million-plus Americans who originally voted for the billionaire from Queens, or the 70 million-plus who voted to re-elect him 4 years later, you were a threat. From his fascistic red-lit Marine Corps propped-up speech in front of Liberty Hall, to his speech Monday at the site of a church shooting which – strangely occurred under Obama’s presidency, not Trump’s – Biden has you as a MAGA-extremist, a domestic terrorist driven by White Supremacy. President Trump is described as an authoritarian who admires Mussolini, reads Mein Kampf, and is readying himself to establish a dictatorship.
This is all very strange, given that the man in question has already been President and took none of the actions we are told he is obsessed with when he already was in office. Instead of being a fascist or a Nazi, or a White-Supremacist, he was the most philosemitic President since 1948, a man who recognized Jerusalem and moved our embassy there, after 3 previous Presidents were too afraid too. As to White-Supremacy and general bigotry? In addition to black and gay cabinet members, President Trump initiated unprecedented justice and penal reforms to help minorities, in addition to historic support to Black colleges and universities.
So, who are the fascists?
Who deployed the FBI to raid Mar a Lago, the residence of a former President? Which administration arrested former Assistants to the President for “contempt of Congress?” Whose DOJ targeted a former President’s lawyers, including the former Mayor of New York? Whose FBI surveilled Catholics for being “traditional?” Who sentenced January 6 demonstrators for 20+ years for trumped up “obstruction of an official proceedings” charges? Whose DOJ used illegal surveillance 200,000+ times against innocent Americans? Whose Federal Air Marshals tracked Trump supporters simply because they support the former President. Unelected judges of which political persuasion are trying to take President Trump off the 2024 ballot? And which side has raised indictments totaling more than 730+ years in prison against the leader of the Opposition?
Yes, America is facing the threat of fascist dictatorship. But it’s already here. The Fascists are the Democrat Party and the Biden regime.

They say “perception is reality.” Not quite.
But what someone thinks is true will shape their behavior, even if it isn’t actually true.
If that weren’t the case, billions of dollars wouldn’t be spent annually on marketing and advertising products and services you don’t actually need but which “consumers” have been convinced they can’t live without.
The same goes for the world of politics. There are perceptions, and then there is the reality. And knowing the difference between them in 2024 will be crucial.
So let’s start with that awful word: “narrative,” because the historic Presidential election this year will be driven by whether existing false representations of Left and Right can be broken.
The conventional wisdom, the DC narrative about Left v. Right has been boiled down for decades as: “the Democrats care about the little guy, for minorities and women” and “Republicans are mean, selfish, greedy and elitists who look down on the working man.” Then 2016 happened.
Incredibly, a billionaire reality-TV superstar real-estate mogul came out of nowhere with a message about the “forgotten men and women” who had been betrayed by both parties and about how we have to “Make America Great Again.” And Donald Trump won, the first time he ever ran.
Clearly the establishment narrative had failed the Left. So, what was to be done? Up the ante. With the violent support of astroturfed, so-called, social justice “movements” like Antifa and Black Lives Matter, the spin-doctors, talking heads, and communication “experts” decided to go all the way.
Building upon Hillary Clinton’s original dehumanizing language of the “Deplorables,” which itself was a version of Obama’s “bitter clingers” slur, the Biden regime and its lacks doubled down. Instead of deplorable hicks who loved their Bible and their guns, the language switched to something much darker.
If you were one of the 60 million-plus Americans who originally voted for the billionaire from Queens, or the 70 million-plus who voted to re-elect him 4 years later, you were a threat. From his fascistic red-lit Marine Corps propped-up speech in front of Liberty Hall, to his speech Monday at the site of a church shooting which – strangely occurred under Obama’s presidency, not Trump’s – Biden has you as a MAGA-extremist, a domestic terrorist driven by White Supremacy. President Trump is described as an authoritarian who admires Mussolini, reads Mein Kampf, and is readying himself to establish a dictatorship.
This is all very strange, given that the man in question has already been President and took none of the actions we are told he is obsessed with when he already was in office. Instead of being a fascist or a Nazi, or a White-Supremacist, he was the most philosemitic President since 1948, a man who recognized Jerusalem and moved our embassy there, after 3 previous Presidents were too afraid too.
