CMP owner to invest bigly in U.S. grid & gives gold-plated jet to Trump. Also, Laurel Libby (and her mom) win in court. And introducing “Mutual Aid," conversations with Mainers making a difference.
The "Universal Translator" featured in Star Trek is (will be?) an amazing piece of technology. But I'm not sure that even the greatest Engineers in Starfleet could program a device that would translate MAGA-ese into a logical statement.
But despite lacking both a Universal Translator and a worm in my brain, I'm going to take a shot at understanding the "logic" behind the following:
"Maine voters had a chance to cut this multinational electric cord, of course, but blew it by rejecting the 2023 referendum to dismantle CMP and create “Pine Tree Power,” a nonprofit utility that would’ve become consumer-owned."
Chud justification: "I think it's great paying high prices for electricity, and having that money go into the account of a foreign Dictator, instead of having a home-grown, citizen-controlled non-profit power company, because by defeating the "Pine Tree Power" referendum, we got to own the libs."
