Yes, as I’ve said from the very beginning, Platner is a scumbag, and the Nazi tattoo should’ve been the end of him politically.
But this is also true: If Platner were a Republican, and week after week women came forward with evidence of rape or sexual abuse, he’d lie about each woman, he’d attack the media & scream “fake news,” his fellow Republican colleagues would stand by him, and Republican voters would still enthusiastically vote for him.
@RepMcCormick I read her tragic story about her near fatal pregnancy complication and her difficulty getting adequate care in Florida with great interest. No woman should go through that. I hope she’s gained some perspective and hope you have as well.
SCOTUS today:
- States can count mail in ballots arriving late as long as they are postmarked prior to the election
- won’t hear Trump’s E Jean Carroll appeal
- won’t hear Dersh’s CNN appeal
- Trump can’t fire Lisa Cook

Then Jesus said unto the sick, “you better have insurance.”
Then Jesus said unto the stranger, “are you here legally?”
Then Jesus said unto the hungry, “my taxes better not be paying for these loaves and fishes.”
Then Jesus said unto the poor, “this is your own fault.”

Bill Clinton: I balanced the federal budget
Barack Obama: I won a Nobel Peace Prize
Joe Biden: I passed the largest long-term investment in US infrastructure since WWII
Donald Trump: Dumb has a 'b'
Georgia’s abortion ban has worsened patient outcomes and contributed to the healthcare provider shortage in Georgia. Period.
Given a choice, doctors will increasingly choose not to practice in a state that criminalizes them for providing the best care they were trained to.
Mike Collins, the new Republican Senate candidate for Georgia:
—Praised college students making monkey gestures and noises at a Black woman
—Employed a chief of staff who was in a white nationalist group chat
—Denies the results of the 2020 election
—Has been the subject of a House Ethics committee investigation
@berniemoreno@LauraLoomer So instead of reflecting on your policies that alienate voters, your plan is to double down on your agenda that hurts the average American.
@RepMcCormick I’m not sure this is the flex you think it is, knowing how many women’s lives are at risk due to this bad decision, and indeed, the women who’s lives have been lost already.
