Jared Golden, who represents Maine’s heavily rural 2nd Congressional District, boasted about taking on the Democrat commander-in-chief’s agenda in a 30-second video. He lists off accomplishments via a voiceover while the lawmaker cracks open and devours lobsters in a nod to his state’s most iconic industry. ‘Last year, I cracked Biden’s aggressive spending agenda,’ Golden boasts while tearing a meaty lobster claw.

The New England groundfish debacle (Part III): who or what is at fault? Nils E. Stolpe/FishNet

It took me a while to decide how to most accurately describe the situation that has been visited upon the New England fishing communities that are and since colonial times have been dependent on the groundfish fisheries.

NILS STOLPE: The New England groundfish debacle (Part IV): Is cutting back harvest really the answer?
