Tucker
Account to be removed on or around 07 FEB now that I have ended my campaign for US Senate.
- While signature gathering has been going well, the campaign failed to meet several key goals in other areas this month. As a result, please see my official statement below regarding the end of my campaign.
- I think Troy is a relatively (within the past month?) recent addition to BlueSky. I think we’re still missing one or two governor candidates on here. Sharing for those trying to hear from all of them. #mepolitics
- Ilhan Omar was attacked at a town hall tonight and apparently sprayed with some unknown substance. The rhetoric against her has been unending and vicious. The same side that constantly tells us to tone down the rhetoric but never does so themselves… www.c-span.org/clip/public-...
- She looks ok in the video after the event, but I can’t say for sure that everything is fine. The people around her were clearly worried.
- Not holding town halls isn’t enough for Susan Collins and her staff. She also seems to feel the need to arrest those that try to peacefully voice their concerns directly. You can’t represent the people of Maine if you won’t even listen to them. #mepolitics
- One of my greatest worries around ICE is how much goes unreported because ICE is committing substantial cover ups. 32 people died in ICE detention last year. Six have already did this month...that we know of. Not to mention the known murders. And yet, Susan Collins is merely concerned. #mepolitics
- Democrats and like-minded individuals must unite in the fight against Collins and this administration. Our communities simply cannot afford to have fractured leadership right now. Continue calling your elected officials. And continue helping your local communities any way you can. Every bit helps.

- We are far beyond body cameras Susan Collins. The murder in Minneapolis involved a man recording with his phone in clear sight along with numerous bystanders doing the same. ICE murdered him anyways. Impeach Noem. Abolish ICE. Prosecute the killers.
- Also, Congress should already have access to detention centers and are being denied by random ICE agents. If they are willing to ignore Constitutionally granted powers, then why would they care about your bill for IGs?
- Reposted by Tucker1/25 This video of a South Portland, Maine, woman being taken by ICE Friday night was shared with me and it felt important to share it with others, so others understand. #maine #MEpolitics
- "When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time." Susan Collins has voted to support Trump 96% of the time. She isn't a coward, she is a believer. One who continues to refuse to use her position to stop these ongoing atrocities. It is beyond time to vote her out. #mepolitics
- Reposted by TuckerCandlelight vigil this evening at 7pm. For #AlexPretti #Minnesota #Maine #America. Light a candle and step outside in your neighborhood with friends and family. In solidarity we mourn as a community. In solidarity we grow stronger as a community. #MEPolitics
- Another video of the murder today in Minneapolis perpetrated by ICE. The victim appears to be trying to help others get away from pepper spray and is then swarmed. At no point does he pose any danger to anyone.
- It is clear that there is no other recourse. ICE must be abolished and a substantial number of its agents prosecuted. #AbolishICE
- MediasTouch has someone on the ground reporting live from the site of the Minneapolis shooting. www.youtube.com/live/l_7JA-3...
- Video out of Minneapolis this morning appears to show another ICE murder. A large group of ICE agents is seen wrestling with a man before opening fire multiple times on him. Some shots even come after the individual is clearly no longer moving. This is domestic terrorism. Abolish and prosecute ICE
- Hard to watch but sharing because we all need to see what is happening.
- TikTok has officially updated their ToS for users in the US now that Larry Ellison's company has taken control. Be very cautious using the app if you are active in protests. If you continue to use TikTok, then I highly, highly recommend reviewing all of your privacy settings immediately.
- Every protest against ICE and the authoritarian actions of this admin reminds me that Mainers truly are as steadfast as Katahdin. And every protest should remind each of us that we are not alone in this fight. Mainers will stick together and overcome every obstacle. And that terrifies this admin.

- Reposted by Tucker1/23 UPDATE on case of Portland, Maine, father from Angola detained by ICE at asylum appointment #maine #MEpolitics
- Much of the news is rightfully focused on ICE raids in Maine right now, but today is also the day Jack Smith is testifying in Congress. A Republican rep has just blamed the insurrection on Capitol Police. Outright propaganda with no basis in reality. Dems have a lot of work to do when we win in Nov
- Susan Collins has made a statement warning protestors not to "interfere" with ICE operations in Maine. Keep in mind that ICE believes that breathing near them counts as interfering. Clowns all of them. Meanwhile, they are abducting young adults with no justification whatsoever. #mepolitics

- It is incredible that one of the most clearly stated responsibilities of the government is to "insure domestic Tranquility." And yet Maine is currently being invaded by a surge of masked federal agents who feel that they have a right to terrorize local communities. Impeachment is only the start.
- Reposted by TuckerMaine mother of 4 with a pending asylum case was arrested in Portland this morning. She is not here illegally. She has no criminal convictions. She was arrested after dropping her child off at school. #MEpolitics themainemonitor.org/mother-of-4-...
- I often get asked what exactly I expect from Dem members of Congress who hold little legislative power right now. Its simple. I expect them to be present. To show up in the cities and towns where ICE is kidnapping people and provide actual support. Maine needs steadfast leaders right now. Be one.
- Tired of hearing about ICE upholding the “rule of law” while they consistently violate the Constitution on top of their constant basic human rights violations. Hearing reports of sightings in Maine this morning. Stay safe folks and record everything.
- Today your feeds will likely be flooded with political figures and groups quoting MLK Jr. and making claims of how their beliefs align with his. But talk is cheap and lies common. Many of these same people have spent years helping undermine the rights of others. Actions speak louder than words.
- Trump is threatening allied nations with more tariffs for simply opposing his ridiculous claims to Greenland. We don't need Greenland, and we don't need these incredibly haphazard tariffs. Mainers, and Americans at large, have already suffered enough because of them.
- We truly didn't need more proof that cruelty is the point but here we are. ICE is not out to make this country safer. There's a reason they continue to attack peaceful protesters every chance they get. Record everything! Maine will remain strong in the face of ICE. www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...
- A reminder that the Epstein files still haven't been released in accordance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act. And the DOJ has now claimed that Congress has no right to appoint a Special Master to compel their release. Corrupt regime is corrupt. Release the files.
- I am constantly told that we need the filibuster to prevent fascism in this country. Folks, look around. Fascism is already here. ICE is now a paramilitary force working for Trump. Abolish the filibuster. Abolish ICE. Return power to the people. #mepolitics
- Maine People's Alliance held an excellent meeting tonight on the topic of ICE and local efforts to keep our communities safe and informed. There are organizations all across this state doing incredible work on a daily basis. Meetings like this help spread awareness so that all of us can take part!
- Trump is threatening to invoke the Insurrection Act. Yet again he is demonstrating his complete disregard for the illegal acts of ICE. And Susan Collins won't do a thing to stop it. But Mainers won't take an ICE invasion sitting down. We always stand up for what is right and support each other.
- Its more important than ever to look out for vulnerable communities right now as reports suggest a surge of ICE activity in Maine. Remember that recording interactions with ICE is incredibly important. Don't let them control the narrative. And remember that there is great power in solidarity.

If you or anyone you know attended the Bystander Intervention Training at Food AND Medicine in Brewer this evening (ends at 7pm), please share what you learned, DM me, or email the address on my pinned calendar. Thank you. #Maine #MEpolitics #BystanderTraining #NonViolenceIsPower
- Reposted by TuckerToday, the entire MaineDOT family is heartbroken. Yesterday, we lost two dedicated public servants: James Brown and Dwayne Campbell from our Fairfield Crew. When they left for work this morning, no one could have known they wouldn’t return.
- Another important read and even further proof that Kristi Noem should be impeached and ICE abolished. Praising these assaults on people is yet another confirmation that cruelty is the point. One day, we will absolutely hold these people accountable. #mepolitics www.propublica.org/article/vide...
