On this week’s Easter edition of the Pulse, we cover a lot of ground.

Humans are returning to the Moon, the latest “No Kings” rally took place, Donald Trump addressed the nation on the conflict in Iran, Pam Bondi was fired as Attorney General, Congress continues to be dysfunctional over funding the Department of Homeland Security, and the Supreme Court takes up the Birthright Citizenship issue.

We try to cover most of this news, while also talking about last week’s decision by Maine Democrats to insert a millionaire’s tax into the supplemental budget, and Janet Mills’ politically-motivated support of that new tax, which once again violates a major campaign promise.

We also talk about a politically motivated fine of a lobster fisherman who just so happens to be a Republican leader in the Legislature, and skepticism about ranked choice voting in Maine’s Supreme Judicial Court.

That and more on this week’s Pine Tree Pulse.
