Your tax dollars at work
The baby murder business is highly lucrative.

PP: “And ever since they imported so many Somalis into Maine it has become even more lucrative. Look at all those little black babies we can kill!”
Paul LePage was elected in 2010 and re-elected in 2014.
He was term-limited in 2018 and had to sit out a term.
