Governor Janet Mills, the irritating Governor of Maine, has faced increased scrutiny after a DOJ memo resurfaced 1990s allegations of cocaine abuse. When questioned by a journalist, she lost her cool, yelling “What the f—?” as an answer.
For context, she embarrassingly claimed that her state had a “secret police force” targeting her. The DOJ dismissed her claims as “unsubstantiated.” Separately, Mills has faced serious allegations regarding corruption practices in state contracts, which have led many to reevaluate her sensitivity.
In any case, Gov. Janet Mills lost her mind in response to a journalist’s question about cocaine allegations, “What the f—? she snarled. At the time of the initial allegations, she slimmed, “It’s scary,” and “Maine apparently has a secret police force at work that can ruin the reputation of any who opposes it.” Additionally, she cast herself as “the victim of a smear campaign.”
Still not done whining, she said that the ccllaims and “very bad precedent when a prosecutor has to look over his or her shoulder every time you put somebody in jail and wonder whether that person is going to find an audience down the street in the BIDE office or down the road in the U.S. Attorney’s Office to say dirty things about you.”’
Additionally, as we reported, a Maine state audit exposed rampant mismanagement in the Office of State Procurement Services, approving $2.1 billion in contracts without required cost analyses or oversight, thereby violating laws and suggesting a web of corruption extending all the way to the top of state politics.
In their 2024 report, state auditors identified significant gaps in the information. “Documentation to support performance of a cost analysis as required by State policy could not be provided for any of the 45 procurement actions tested,” a report read.
Building on this point, the same source said, “While OSPS claims that there are often rigorous cost analyses in place, OSA requested documentation for cost analysis related to all 45 of the procurement documents selected in our test, and none were provided by OSPS.”

Concluding their comment, state Tudor noted, “Allowing departments to engage vendors for work prior to approved signatures on contracts creates a potential liability for the State and exposure to legal proceedings.”
Reacting to these disturbing points, State Senate Republican Leader Trey Stewart issued a statement. “Finally, State Auditor Matt Dunlap has answered the question we’ve all been asking: Where did all the money go?” he said
Adding to his last comment, he noted, “For six years, Maine Democrats and Janet Mills have taken more and more money from working Mainers through higher and higher taxes to bankroll their record-breaking spending binge. Now we know that this money has been handed out through a crooked, unfair process that rewards cronies and insiders at the expense of taxpayers.”

Additionally, in a viral post to X, Derrick Evans said, “Janet Mills is the Democrat Governor of Maine. Her brother allegedly pocketed $22 million into his shell company that was meant for towns in Maine. ‘This is a clear example of political corruption in the state of Maine.'”
