Bangor Publishing Company — the company that owns both the Bangor Daily News (BDN) and a lesser-known marketing agency — has received more than $2.4 million from state agencies since Gov. Janet Mills (D) took office in 2019, according to a review of contracts filed with Maine’s procurement office.
The payments to Bangor Publishing Company are not regularly disclosed by the company’s newspaper arm but are available publicly via the state’s vendor payment disclosures and its procurement record websites.
State financial records show that payments made to either Bangor Publishing Company, Pulse Marketing Agency, or Pulse Marketing LLC began almost immediately after Gov. Mills entered office and totaled more than $2.4 million as of fiscal year 2024.
The Maine Wire’s review of those contracts sheds new light on the murky and ethically questionable dynamics that arise when a newspaper company is simultaneously reporting on state government and profiting from lucrative contracts with state agencies.
Paul surely understands Trump MUST move as quickly as possible to accomplish urgent goals. I have come to despise Paul for his constant talking and never doing anything or his constant chirping against Trump. In a moment of national crisis, a small window of deep change has opened and Paul dithers over abstractions. All law and all moral principles are pragmatic at the national level. This is always and especially true in time of crisis. Gangs of ruthless illegals must go; USA has a debt crisis which must be fixed now; world trade has been imbalanced against USA since WW2 and now is the time to balance it. From a Buddhist POV, seize the day, use the real-world conditions we have to make real progress repairing and improving our country. ABN
After you finish this blog, you’ll be asking the million-dollar question: Why is Chief Justice John Roberts hanging out with the Deep State’s #1 color revolution architect?
Turns out the left’s favorite “Republican” has some very interesting buddies.
According to Norm Eisen—the man who practically wrote the Deep State’s playbook on color revolutions, all things anti-Trump, and lawfare in the US—he and Chief Justice John Roberts are not only good pals, but they even spent a week together in the Czech Republic. According to Norm, the two BFFs were there working on “American rule of law” issues.
Hmm…
Norm was so proud of this that he actually bragged about the trip and made it very clear that Roberts isn’t corrupt—he’s just a “close friend” who happened to fly overseas and stay at Eisen’s posh 150-room palace to collaborate on transatlantic political projects.
Really…
And no, that’s not just weird; it’s a massive conflict of interest and could also explain a lot.
