In 1956 Republicans were this
I was thinking about foreign exchange students not those attending academies, but yes there is likely an impact there too
I don't think color really matters - it's what's in the heart
My guess is that Trump's policies have made many foreign teen students rethink the idea of a high school year in the US, but has there also been a negative impact on would be host families?
There is NO WAY Trump knew this, but someone did And it is likely that they didn't tell Trump My guess is Hegseth had no role in it either He isn't capable of such interest

Maine? #MePolitics
If #MeMedia had any balls they would ask Susan Collins about this

Also the US doesn't not fund subsidized housing directly Housing authorities sell "tax credits" to the wealthy that need a tax break It's a complete shit show
We would just shut the door of the room that they were in
And I say this because a starting teacher can't find affordable housing here Same w/fire fighter, apprentice electrician Add two incomes together and they will never qualify for what in US is subsidized housing because they make too much - but they still can't find anything affordable
It's a hard cap here which means that so-called "work force housing" isn't developed. You will probably find this abhorrent but I would like to see some housing developed with an income floor - that is, you have to make a certain level Say, what you would earn working min wage at 40 hrs over a year
Grateful
You mean she’d then naturally?
But the only form of housing the gov’t currently funds is low-income which has income caps - if you make too much you don’t qualify but then that may be too little to afford anything Seeing this where I live

Wonder why State of Maine boats don’t fly the Maine Ensign
The US was chosen to host the UN in part because our government would not do this sort of thing www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a...
Peaches in Maine is difficult Well done
I’ll leave to reach your own conclusions but read it first #MePolitics

Follow the money Who benefits from this? Not the consumers of course So . . .
Let’s say it all together now “The State, working hand in hand with the State’s corporations, is the essence of #fascism” — attr. Mussolini
Extremely alarmed is not one of her choices cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thu...
Assume that your conjecture is correct what is the end game for US? Who is actually calling the shots in US (hard to believe it’s Trump)
Which Florida will ask the fed to cover
They are literally making up their own numbers now
#MePolitics
I mean a lot of #Palestine flags on the last climb with the riders so spaced apart means a lot of TV exposure
A lot of signs in support of #Palestine and Palestinian flags on the course of the La Vuelta a España on today's stage
Sure sounds like truth
The new interim head of the CDC thinks that medications should be deregulated and allow consumers to choose what they think is safe
Seeing a lot of this kind of bullshit These Nat Guard troops have left their families and jobs not to do what they were trained to do, but instead to rake leaves and pick up trash These idiots don't know what this does to unit morale
My thoughts exactly The money isn't coming back until MAGA is gone
#MePolitics
I’ve always had trouble canning tomatoes so for years now I’ve made red sauce and frozen it All this from our garden plus garlic (not pictured)
Oddly they never pray for god to stop these shootings BEFORE they happen
Time to think about what exactly your taxes are paying for
You think the bar can't get any lower
If prayer works then why don't these folks pray that god stops these shootings BEFORE they happen?
I remember driving down to Portland when Katrina was hammering New Orleans and on the way back to Rockland later that day noticed that the price of gas at the Cumberland Farms station in Woolwich had gone up 40 cents a gallon
I don't think that Honey has the wherewithal to hijack anything
The idiocy is amazing www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
Wild
This is cool
Or ask them if prayer is so important to do so BEFORE the shootings happen - ask god to PREVENT them
You know what tweet you will never see from Republican christians? "Please god stop these shootings before they happen"
How much money has been spent so far?

Reminder that when the first Covid vaccines were rolled out (under Trump) teachers were some of those given priority to getting the shot Today they are now denied the new one

"I have more guns than I need but not as many as I want"
Just a reminder that Russia first invaded (and annexed) Crimea then invaded Ukraine again, landing troops at Kyiv's airport
My bad - I misread policy as police
Hmmm - I think your statement is way too broad Be like arguing that every bank robbery or car crash due to speeding is a police failure
Truth
My criticism is with the PPH not Collins
I listen to Dan Patrick every day!
Price check
You know what to do #MePolitics www.facebook.com/susancollins...
It’s all crazy ads
It was NOT a Collins’ ribbon cutting ceremony but one for a new road Do you folks see how your language elevates her beyond what she is doing?
Then hit a hole in one and got someone else to pay for all the drinks
I think Trump’s new flag burning order is a signal to them to engage with “fighting words” www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...
I really wish that she would just get to the point I know that this has been her schtick for years which is why I don’t watch I don’t have the time
Truth
Please post link
Yeah they are just regular folks protesting Let’s assume that many are registered Dems - could it be that they are trying to encourage Maine Dem leadership to get off their ass and make noise too?
Completely true and you can bet that the Collins’ team will be even more buttoned up going forward She must have been livid
I will disagree here I think that this assumption by local and national Dems has in large part led to where we are today People that don’t follow closely want to see folks that fight not appease
Meanwhile our nation slides into a dictatorship But fuck yeah - NFL!
Yes - that was two centuries ago Do you think swing voters care if the Collins protestors were dignified? Miller just labeled the entire Democratic Party “extremist”
You probably left your watch at home Be honest
Used to be programs for at risk teens did this
What would you suggest?
Great job getting the word out but we can probably do better - I didn’t see anything on my social media feeds More people = more impact #MePolitics
FANatic!

Are you a pretty good shot?
Rumsfeld saying that "democracy is messy" seems so quaint now
I'm surprised at how bad they are Gonna go with A but would like to see raclette LOL
Yes I get that It's in the reasoning of the order where they argue burning a flag can't be done in a manner that would incite a riot It's crazy and worse is that there is no huge rash of people burning the flag
Absolutely chilling
If these folks willingly degrade themselves to Trump imagine what they will be like when someone smart steps in
#ItsACult
The wording of the order seems designed to encourage attacks on those burning a flag in protest - the burning is no different than hurling an insult or "fighting words" Not sure when this stopped being free speech
What's fascinating about the 2,000 years answer is that our calendar is literally based on the death of Jesus and I don't recall any dino stories in the bible And then the creation museum Wow
