What a treat to have a true White Christmas this year!
Wherever in Maine you happen to live, whatever your traditions or rituals, no matter the challenges this past year has brought, I hope you find some magic in these moments—and plenty of love and joy to warm your heart.
Merry Christmas!
Gotta say, this is my kind of weather—cold, snowy, and perfect for fun times outdoors with the grandkids.
We have our work cut out for us going forward, but right now, it’s about family, friends, and enjoying this quintessentially Maine weather.
Merry Christmas Eve to my fellow Mainers!
My colleague @repbeatty.bsky.social has filed a lawsuit and I’m exploring ways to fight this through the Appropriations Committee.
We will not stop until his name is removed from the building.
The illegal name change is a disgrace to JFK’s memory and legacy, and the increased politicization of the Center is doing so much damage to its core mission.
So grateful to be back home in Maine for the holidays, spending some much needed time away from Washington with family and friends.
Trump’s takeover of the Kennedy Center is still very much top of mind.
Vague, undisclosed “national security” claims don’t justify tearing up signed agreements and sabotaging projects already underway.
I will fight to reverse this reckless decision. We cannot let misinformation derail America’s clean energy progress—or abandon workers and communities in the process.
This is outrageous.
Trump just paused leases for *five* offshore wind projects already under construction.
Let’s be clear about what this does: It kills good jobs, spikes energy costs, and pulls the rug out from under states (like Maine) that have planned responsibly for a clean energy future.
The pattern here is clear: He thinks that these buildings—which belong to the American people—are *his* property.
Remember, this isn’t even legal in the first place.
I will keep fighting this until the day his name is stripped away with the same disregard he showed in putting it there.
Trump was “surprised” by the board's vote to rename the Kennedy Center... but the sign was ready to go up today?
Does he think we're dumb?
He's also:
🤮 Renamed the Institute of Peace after himself
🤮 Bulldozed the East Wing for a vanity ballroom
🤮 Draped federal buildings w/ banners of his face
It's like a court saying you have to pay a fine by a certain date, then paying half and thinking you’re in the clear.
If what Blanche says is true, they're breaking the law.
The victims deserve justice.
The public deserves transparency.
The truth deserves to be told.
RELEASE *ALL* THE FILES!
Our servicemembers absolutely deserve an increase in their BAH. But using these checks as an applause line in an unhinged partisan rant is an insult to them—and the Founders' vision of a nonpartisan military.
Trump has always been a scam artist. This is a next-level con job. (3/3)
Here’s the part he’s not telling you: This money isn’t coming from tariffs (another Trump lie), but from a housing subsidy in the Big Ugly Bill.
He's literally taking money that was already appropriated, repackaging it with a corny name, and pretending like he's doing people some huge favor! (2/3)
🧵
Trump’s erratic primetime address was full of petty grievances and flat-out lies. It was a useless exercise (that derailed the Survivor finale!), and lacked any actual newsworthy announcements.
With one exception—cutting $1776 "Warrior Dividend" checks to 1.4 million active servicemembers. (1/3)
Imagine the outrage if the Jefferson Memorial was renamed for Obama.
JFK would be appalled to see his legacy twisted into a propaganda vehicle for a president who has shown open hostility to cultural institutions.
Putting his name before JFK's is just another example of Trump's profound egomania.
The White House says the Kennedy Center board vote was “unanimous”…
BULLSHIT.
@repbeatty.bsky.social, a Congressional member of the board, was on the call. They muted her and didn't let her voice opposition.
This is beyond absurd, totally illegal, and a disgrace to the memory and legacy of JFK.
John F. Kennedy was a champion of the arts and a fervent believer in free speech. He’d be appalled if he saw what Trump was doing. The Center is a living memorial to him.
I will do everything in my power to stop this ridiculous propaganda campaign. (2/2)
🚨BREAKING🚨
The WH just announced the (TRUMP-APPOINTED) board of the Kennedy Center has voted to rename it the “Trump-Kennedy Center.”
This is totally outrageous—and illegal to do without Congressional approval.
He's running the Kennedy Center into the ground. Ticket sales are plummeting. (1/2)
Democrats have proposed bills (including one I co-sponsored) that would protect ratepayers from higher electricity costs, require studies of AI data centers’ environmental impacts, and demand greater transparency.
AI is a powerful tool. But it needs the proper guardrails—*and* robust public input.
Massive AI data centers are driving up electricity rates across the country.
But communities are pushing back—including Lewiston, whose city council just unanimously rejected a $300 million facility.
One councilor said the proposal yielded “by far” the most constituent feedback he’s ever received.
