- A heated exchange between Maine political candidates over respect for working-class voters and experience in office.
During a debate, Jackson accused Senator Collins of looking down on him and working-class Mainers, questioning whether she respects their struggles with heating costs and daily expenses. Collins responded by sharing her own working-class roots—growing up in Caribou and picking potatoes as a child—and detailed her work funding low-income programs including heating assistance and WIC support. The exchange highlights competing visions of who best represents Maine's working families ahead of the election.

- Senator Collins and Troy Jackson square off on who's responsible for the nation's $40 trillion debt and Maine's $1 billion budget deficit.
In this debate segment, Collins argues economic growth is key to addressing federal debt, citing Maine's 5th-highest tax burden as a barrier. Jackson counters that Collins's federal policies—including the One Big Beautiful bill—have drained Maine of Medicaid and SNAP funding, creating the state's structural budget gap. Collins disputes Jackson's claim of a balanced Maine budget, pointing to the inherited billion-dollar hole. Both candidates blame opposing policies while defending their fiscal records.

Seasonal affective disorder (SAD) is a real condition affecting energy, sleep, and daily routines, particularly during Maine winters. Bangor Public Health Director Jen Gunderman and Dr. David Prescott from Northern Light Acadia Hospital discuss how anyone can be at risk, especially those already struggling with depression or bipolar disorder. Experts recommend purposely avoiding isolation and suggest socializing, getting outside during daylight hours, and using light therapy. The key message: don't wait for symptoms to worsen—reach out to a counselor, therapist, or primary care doctor early.

- A Sanford traffic stop involving ICE agents Thursday resulted in a one-year-old being unrestrained in a vehicle and two young children left unsupervised in their home.
Sanford police were called around 9:30 a.m. to assist federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement near High Street and Brook Street. ICE agents had stopped a vehicle; the driver then backed up and hit an agent's car, leading to detention. Police found a 1-year-old unrestrained inside the vehicle and transported the child to the hospital as a precaution—the child is OK. Officers discovered two other children, ages 2 and 9, had been left alone in a nearby residence. Sanford police contacted Maine's child protective services, and a family friend was located to provide care for the two older children.

- A breakthrough CAR-T cell therapy for blood cancers is now offered in Westbrook, Maine—ending the need for out-of-state treatment.
New England Cancer Specialists received its first CAR-T treatment shipment this week at its Westbrook Rock Row clinic. The therapy reprograms patients' own immune cells to fight blood cancers like follicular lymphoma, with success rates between 50–90% for initial remission. The process takes about three weeks: doctors extract T cells, send them to California for genetic modification, then reinfuse them at the clinic while patients recover at home. Patient Deb Cote, who traveled to Dana-Farber in Boston for treatment five years ago, is now cancer-free and grateful the therapy is finally available locally.
