AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Democratic momentum in Maine’s orbit: In a Philly primary that reads like a warning shot to party bosses, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez endorsed progressive Chris Rabb—and Rabb won big, setting up a likely House takeover narrative. GOP infighting hits a wall: In Washington, Senate Republicans left without a deal on a major immigration package after pushback over Trump’s $1.776B “anti-weaponization” fund, with even Susan Collins calling for guardrails. Maine accountability spotlight: A Bangor Daily News report says Caribou’s school and police heard sexual-misconduct allegations about tennis coach John Habeeb two years before his late-2025 arrest, raising questions about what happened in the meantime. Local schools move budgets: MSAD 70 voters approved an $8.3M budget that now heads to a June referendum. Community culture: Skowhegan named Gina Davis its new field hockey coach after 40+ years of the same leadership.
