EXTRAORDINARY VIDEO glimpse into Minnesota fraud
Watch this video and then wonder, with the media and politicians ignoring, just how much outright theft of our taxpayer dollars is going on, including perhaps close to home. I would guess this doesn't happen without the people in charge getting rich from it. I once read the mafia gets its ideas from the government.…

Maine Monitor: Our biggest environment stories in 2025
By Stephanie McFeeters
Published on: December 26, 2025
There was plenty of big environmental news this year: new clean energy legislation, an extreme drought that led to Maine’s worst August for wildfires in 20 years, federal funding cuts and more.
Here’s a look back at some of our coverage:
Federal policy shifts, funding cuts
One big focus of our reporting this year — in the environmental sphere and elsewhere — was on abrupt pauses and cuts to federal…

.........Across Casco Bay, I see smoke rising from the 421-foot chimney at Wyman Station in Yarmouth. This power plant from a bygone era burns barge loads of polluting, climate-warming oil.
................Natural gas is a big factor. It still generates half of New England’s electricity, despite years of renewable energy expansion. It’s increasingly exported overseas, so it’s tied now to global prices. Public…

John Stossel: Coordinated Groups Edit Wikipedia to Spread Propaganda
The generally levelheaded Mr. Stossel exposes what Wikipedia is all about in this must-see 14 minute video.
It's explained in the video that Wikipedia's extraordinary left-wing bias is due to academics tending to be to the left. I personally believe it's far more organized than that and money is almost certainly playing a role.
We're arguably in World War III right now if one can broaden their definition of war to extend past or bypass the kinetic. Who needs…

How The Maine Wire Became Maine’s Agenda-Setter
By Jon Fetherston
December 24, 2025
For years, Maine’s legacy media landscape operated with a familiar hierarchy: big newspapers and TV stations decided what mattered, and smaller outlets followed their lead. That hierarchy is now broken, and The Maine Wire is the reason why.
Once dismissed as an upstart, The Maine Wire has become one of the most consequential investigative forces in Maine and New England, breaking major stories that now routinely shape state, regional,…

Maine Center For Public Interest Reporting – Three Part Series: A CRITICAL LOOK AT MAINE’S WIND ACT
******** IF LINKS BELOW DON'T WORK, GOOGLE THEM*********
(excerpts) From Part 1 – On Maine’s Wind Law “Once the committee passed the wind energy bill on to the full House and Senate, lawmakers there didn’t even debate it. They passed it unanimously and with no discussion. House Majority Leader Hannah Pingree, a Democrat from North Haven, says legislators probably didn’t know how many turbines would be constructed in Maine if the law’s goals were met." . – Maine Center for Public Interest Reporting, August 2010 https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-power-bandwagon-hits-bumps-in-the-road-3/From Part 2 – On Wind and Oil Yet using wind energy doesn’t lower dependence on imported foreign oil. That’s because the majority of imported oil in Maine is used for heating and transportation. And switching our dependence from foreign oil to Maine-produced electricity isn’t likely to happen very soon, says Bartlett. “Right now, people can’t switch to electric cars and heating – if they did, we’d be in trouble.” So was one of the fundamental premises of the task force false, or at least misleading?" https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-swept-task-force-set-the-rules/From Part 3 – On Wind-Required New Transmission Lines Finally, the building of enormous, high-voltage transmission lines that the regional electricity system operator says are required to move substantial amounts of wind power to markets south of Maine was never even discussed by the task force – an omission that Mills said will come to haunt the state.“If you try to put 2,500 or 3,000 megawatts in northern or eastern Maine – oh, my god, try to build the transmission!” said Mills. “It’s not just the towers, it’s the lines – that’s when I begin to think that the goal is a little farfetched.” https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/flaws-in-bill-like-skating-with-dull-skates/
