Rep. Mike Soboleski discussed a recent incident in Phillips, Maine, where the Chamber of Commerce initially barred elected officials from a parade due to a perceived security threat related to Congressman Jared Golden. Soboleski recounted his efforts to address this decision, including a meeting where he was asked to leave. He highlighted the community’s conservative nature and the Chamber’s subsequent reversal, allowing elected officials to participate. Soboleski also mentioned a no-trespass notice issued against him and speculated that the conflict might stem from political or personal motivations, despite the community’s Republican leanings.
Authorities searched on Thursday for a sniper who assassinated Charlie Kirk, a conservative activist and close ally of President Donald Trump, with one bullet and then slipped away in the mayhem resulting from the latest act of political violence to befall America.
