You have to hand it to the Democrats. They are great at making markets. In 20 years they turned Lewiston Maine into a thriving drug market by importing 3rd world immigrants. There will be thousands more communities like this sprinkled throughout the country because of Harris’ immigration wave.

Deqa Dhalac and RTR will undoubtedly call you a racist for objecting to the “cultural enrichment” we’re experiencing from the likes of these outstanding New Mainers.

Maybe this is part of their culture, and we need to be more culturally sensitive.

Imo, we need to increase the fines and jail time for all classes of crime. If this is considered a class D crime, the max fine is $2K and jail time max is 364 days. No wonder drug dealers don’t care, it’s a slap on the wrist and they’re out. At least bail is set very high for these two, as long as, what’s her name?, oh yeah, Judge Sarah Churchill, isn’t sitting on the bench.
