Slashing Bureaucracy, Restoring Honesty

Trump knows what he is doing. Slashing bureaucracy restores honesty. Half my life has been slashing bureaucracy, understanding their tricks, how they feel entitled, break the rules, normalize rule-breaking, and block accountability. From Reagan’s White House to oversight investigator for Gingrich, litigator to dismantler, I know all their tricks. In Maine, it is worse.

BOBBY CHARLES LAUNCHES THE KATAHDIN CIRCLE

The Katahdin Circle isn’t just another donor club but it's the lifeline of this campaign. When you make a monthly commitment, you’re not just giving money.

Journey to Governor – Seeing Things Rightly

Running for Governor, I am learning…involves striving to see things rightly, taking advice warmly given and criticism holding ground, while also considering the critic’s point. While I have long done this, running for office notches things up.

Bangor Daily News Claims "Maine Is Still Safe But Crime Is Still a Political Flashpoint"

Outrageous article claims "Maine is Safe," downplays alarming danger Mainers face on a daily basis, criticizes my intention to rid the state of organized crime and illicit drug and human trafficking operations.

Drug Trafficking, Pine Boxes, and Maine Pain

Bottom line: Maine is in crisis, the throes of multiple crises, from a feckless, ideologically lost governor and legislature spending, taxing, and slowly bankrupting Maine families, to the spiraling drug overdoses and drug crime, radiating circles of public insecurity and distrust.

Blue States are Sinking

Blue States are sinking. This is not Norman Rockwell’s America. Democrat-dominated Maine is becoming inner city Chicago, or DC, or Philly. Not a surprise, given Democrat polices, it must stop. It will be in 2027, but sooner is needed. Public pressure helps.

Bobby Charles | Another U.S. Citizen Killed By Illegal Alien

August 18th, 2025. Enough is enough. Another American was tragically killed today by an illegal alien. This should never have happened.

Back-to-School Tax Holiday – Now

Schools nationwide, especially in Maine, are in critical trouble – on measures of accountability, outcomes (NAEP results), curricula (life skills), teacher pay and morale, industrial arts, administrative cost, and other indicia.

Illegal is Not Illegal?

The national ACLU and Maine ACLU are making another crazy argument, imagine that? They have literally, on film and in writing, begun to argue that “illegal aliens” are not “illegal,” and so they should not be apprehended by ICE or any State government, nor deported. Really?

Bobby Charles for Maine Governor July 4th

Maine Conservative and crimefighter Bobby Charles is ready to cut taxes, cut crime and end the woke nonsense as he launches bid for Maine Governor. Watch his Ju;y 4th tribute video here.

Cancellation by Defamation – Will Not Work

My first reaction to the “hit piece” on me, a baseless column by Maine Trust papers writer Steve Collins, was to laugh. The guy has no idea who I am, just the GOP’s best chance to be Maine’s next Governor, so he wants to “take me out early.” My second was outrage, how every day Mainers suffer this kind of thing.

Education - Widening the Lens

In practical terms, as I run to be Maine’s next Governor, it means this: Get practical learning, classic books, and industrial arts back into all Maine schools, whatever people have a passion for. There are too few resources teaching the purpose, how to excel in the trades, and why we should expand them.

DOGE For Maine (and every State)

Every state – starting with Maine – should have a “department of government efficiency” or DOGE – a permanent, 24/7, oversight operation, much like an oversight committee, state auditor, or inspector general – but always open, eager, and welcoming for whistleblowers. Why?
