I have heard it said that when I stand here at these meetings to speak against the administration, I am not justified in this because my remarks have little to do with that is occurring within this town, and that only town matters should be embraced by the Citizens' Forum. My response to this criticism is that it reflects an obvious lack of awareness of current events. A vast number of actions promulgated by this administration, directly, directly impact York, all of the surrounding towns, York County, the state of Maine. To point out this truth, I have compiled a list of ten, representing a fraction of the total. To begin, there are our firefighters and their safety and health--this regime has decimated critical research for their benefit, for this we can look to the Department of Health and Human Services. I am certain the firefighters of York who all of us care very much for, cannot afford this neglect, this disregard. Next, Americorps, again decimated through ignorance. I know personally of the contribution this agency made to York, the talented individuals who came to this town. FEMA--if York confronts a future storm of monumental impact, we will be at a real disadvantage. The destruction of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, a consequence of the role it has played in advancing climate science, has simulatenously meant diminished competence in weather forecasting. Housing for low income families jeopardized by the regime--our schools, our library, our hospital, all under threat, and I continue to speak, of restaurants, hotels, the tourist economy, with intimidated seasonal workers apprehensive of what could only be regarded as thoughtless, illegal kidnapping by that disgusting, reprehensible ICE, and its masked, cowardly fiends. Move on to the tariffs and a seriously impacted economy, York will not escape from any of this, and we will soon see the effects at the grocery store, where one familiar group of summer vistors will very likely be conspicuously absent, the Canadians, who have understandably acquired a dread of this predatory nation that arrogantly seeks to engulf the homeland they hold with pride, as but another state. An ever expanding throng that regards this regime with utter contempt is even more in evidence throughout this country, and can readily be observed in York on the scheduled, special days for protest, when hundreds line both sides of York Street between the town hall and the church. It will only grow larger, as more of the outrages are brought to our attention. Signs that read impeach can be observed in many hands along the way. Impeachment is not sufficient punishment for what is actually the treasonous destruction of our way of life, by an aged, angry, unenlightened, narcissist, and his ruinous vendettas that have already reached into this town less than one hundred days from the inauguration. So, you see, Citizen's Forum is very much the suitable venue for these remarks.
