Subaru Impreza Driver Sends It Up Maine Ski Slope, Disaster Ensues

A New England driver must’ve misread his Subaru‘s symmetrical all-wheel drive badge as skedaddle. Or rather, ski-daddle (terrible, I know) for tracking his car down the slopes.

Community support for the president in the state has long been divided, with more rural areas tending to support him. This week, Portland flyers protesting Trump and ICE made it clear where others in the state stand. Using immigration enforcement as a pretext to detain political enemies? It’s a standard tool among authoritarian regimes. It’s also a technique that Trump and Hitler have in common, as Portland’s flyers point out.
