It’s a good weekend to read a book of compelling short stories about messy relationships, gay life, love, and lust, and broken hearts with some dark humor and surprising twists.

Enjoy!

According to the media, I’m supposed to stop supporting Graham Platner based on accusations from a right-wing operative who previously worked to discredit Kavanaugh’s accusers.

BREAKING: O.M.G. The woman accusing Graham Platner of "intimidation" has been EXPOSED as a top Republican operative who has worked with his opponent, Susan Collins!

This is EXACTLY what they did to Al Franken…

On Thursday evening, the New York Times ran a story in which a woman, Lindsey Fifield, accused Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner of grabbing her by the arm, twisting her arm, and of standing in a doorway menacingly blocking her exit.

The New York Times could not corroborate any of her accusations, but ran the story anyway, along with allegations from a few other women that Graham Platner could be unsettling, had dark thoughts, and generally had spooky vibes as a boyfriend.

They also spoke to several other women who said he was a lovely boyfriend and they happily supported his candidacy.

It’s now coming out that Lindsey Fifeld is a lifelong GOP operative who has worked with Platner’s Republican opponent, Susan Collins, and successfully persuaded her to vote in favor of Brett Kavanaugh, Trump’s Supreme Court justice who is an ACTUAL rapist.

In one message to a friend, Fifeld wrote “I will personally go campaign for Collins.”

Reporter Ryan Grim at Drop Site News reports that “In 2014, Fifield began work as digital director for American Action Network, a Republican Super PAC that oversees House races. The next year she became social media manager for the Heritage Foundation, where she stayed for the next seven years.”

“In 2022, she joined the Super PAC backing Nikki Haley for president, switching to the official campaign side the next year, and staying until the campaign flamed out. She now lists herself as a visiting fellow at the Independent Women’s Forum, a prominent dark money group that is best known for helping usher Brett Kavanaugh on to the Supreme Court and giving Susan Collins the talking points she needed to make her decisive speech in his favor.“

“The NYT breezed past all this, saying she was ‘a Virginia conservative who has worked for right-leaning groups and Republican campaigns.’”

“Meanwhile, the timeline Fifield gives of their relationship is confusing, because during at least some of that time she was actually dating a different person, her longterm boyfriend who became her fiancee before she called off the wedding in 2018. We all know this because she and [Zionist extremist Bethany] Mandel did a podcast episode on it that went mega-viral in Republican circles back then.”

It should be noted as well that Lindsey Fifeld has a long history of making up baseless lies about Palestinians targeted by the Trump administration like Mahmoud Khalil and Rumeysa Ozturk.

Folks, pardon our French, but this is *bullshit.*

This is an abhorrent attempt to weaponize domestic violence and the mental trauma of dealing with PTSD in order to sink a leftist candidate who staunchly opposes the Israeli genocide of Gaza.

Oh, and if that wasn't enough, the reporter on this article is Katie Gluek, an ardent Zionist whose parents are Israeli settler-occupiers in the West Bank.

Platner’s campaign responded with “Let’s be very clear: This is a lifelong G.O.P. operative who’s dedicated her career to electing Republicans.”

What else is there to say?

Graham Platner is obviously a very imperfect person, but we are not electing him to be our boyfriend. He has been very open about his struggles with PTSD; he saw four of his squadmates killed in an IED explosion in Iraq.

This smear campaign, based on uncorroborated allegations by a woman who literally said she would work for his opponent, is part of his punishment for being a progressive who isn’t afraid to stand against Israel, to stand against the health insurance behemoths, and to demand a better life for the American people.

They managed to sink Al Franken like this. They will NOT succeed again!

Hey media

Not a Platner fan, but why is he a nonstop story and not Ken Paxton's TWENTY indictments by a GOP led-Texas legislature, securities fraud charges and his wife's filing for divorce on "biblical grounds?"

This is Zoe Kestan. And guess what? She was 24 fucking years old when this photo was taken.

She met Hunter Biden in late 2017 when she was a 24 year-old fashion designer and social media figure. Their relationship lasted 11 months.

Now if it’s sexual improprieties you’re looking for, look no further than your PedoFuhrer.

He screwed around on all three wives. He was banging a porn star while his third wife was nursing their newborn son.

He paid hush money to porn star but it didn’t stay hushed.

Pete Hegseth just slashed the military's list of religious identities from 200+ options to 31.

Gone? Humanist, Atheist, Pagan, and dozens of Christian denominations.

There's no reason for this. It's pure sabotage.
