CRAY IN MAINE

Lobsters aren't the only ones getting put to the heat in Maine. Bangor Daily News reporter Mike Tipping reveals that Gov. Paul LePage met with members of a group that state law enforcement and the FBI recognize as "a domestic terrorist movement." LePage has denied meeting with members of the Constitutional Coalition, but office records prove otherwise. Two members of the Constitutional Coalition claim that LePage specifically discussed with them arresting and executing Democratic political opponents. "We also discussed this there: The penalty for high treason hasn't changed in a hundred years, and I didn't say it, but the governor said it," Jack McCarthy said on the Aroostook Watchmen radio show. "I never opened my mouth and said the word—the governor looked at us and looked at his buddy and said, 'They're talking about hanging them.'" LePage has denied this, too.
