This is the dumbest most clueless statement of all time. Since when does the media not probe the minutia of a candidates personal relationships? Hello, John Edwards, Bill Clinton, Gary Hart, Eric Swalwell, Andrew Cuomo, and the list goes on.
The definition of misogyny is Jasmine Crocket wasn't good enough to be a senator but the same people who deemed her unqualified for that office is telling us Graham Cunningham Platner is worthy of being a senator with no qualifications, experience with a grave yard of skeletons.
@agraybee I realize that we don't care about the truth of the most basic premises anymore but if you vacationed twice a year at your grandfather's Chatêau, you are not working class and THEREFORE the source of your predilections is more in line w/ the Patrick Bateman path to psychopathy
The special issue of American Psychologist on antisemitism (a flagship APA journal) is out.
I think some of its editors quit due to the an American Psychologist special issue on "decolonial and liberation psychologies" that contained vitriolic rhetoric against so-called "Zionist psychologies".
Three papers reports several interesting findings that should inform public discussions on the relation between Antizionism and Antisemitism.
.@DAGToddBlanche finally did enough dirty work for Trump to get the permanent nomination AG. First he covered up the Epstein files, then he led Trump’s bogus charges against his political enemies, and then he went along with his $1.8B slush fund.
He should be fired not hired. My colleagues in the Senate must reject his nomination.
NEW: Democratic Rep. Madeleine Dean says Graham Platner "has disqualified himself" from Maine Senate race.
"It's so distressing -- All of the stories that are coming out, and there are more and more, it seems, by the hour."
A congressional hopeful backed by Mamdani spewed Russia apologia the same day Moscow invaded Ukraine (in response to a Twitter user with the handle "Clit Eatswood").
Her lack of accountability, refusal to apologize shows that she doesn't respect voters enough to explain why she held those convictions and how she supposedly “evolved”… from four years ago.
Be honest with voters!
Does Norway support terror? Walking through downtown Oslo, I came across a disturbing mural – apparently sponsored by the Oslo National Academy of Arts, a publicly funded institution – glorifying the iconography of violent extremism. The display featured Hamas’s inverted red triangle, a rifle, a keffiyeh, and the image of a Lufthansa civilian aircraft placed in front of a Marxist militant from the PFLP, a group responsible for multiple plane hijackings. Behind it all: smoke plumes meant to evoke an Israeli airstrike on Gaza. This was not “solidarity.” It was a celebration of terror against civilians, presented as if it were synonymous with the Palestinian cause. It is a perfect snapshot of what has gone wrong in parts of Western Europe: the normalization, and even celebration, of grotesque symbols that collapse Palestinian identity into plane hijackings, rifles, and failed communist militant fantasies from the 1970s and the contemporary Islamist disasters from the present.
Who benefits from repeatedly associating Palestinians with plane hijackings, AK‑47s, and washed‑up extremists? Why would a major Norwegian arts institution choose to elevate these images when countless Palestinian humanitarians, thinkers, and community leaders embody a far more compelling vision of dignity, freedom, and a future beyond blood merchants who have sold “armed resistance” as a path to liberation? Instead of recycling sick, dehumanizing symbols that reinforce the stereotype of Palestinians as terrorists, imagine highlighting the humanity of Palestinians in Gaza and beyond; their love of life, their desire for peace, opportunity, and relief from decades of failed “resistance” narratives that Western radicals and diaspora Arab and Palestinian voices refuse to let go of.
Oslo is saturated with “pro‑Palestine” stickers, flyers, and signs. But if “solidarity” manifests as the glorification of terror and the reduction of Palestinians to violent caricatures, then this support does more harm than good. In that case, Norway’s sympathy is not solidarity at all; it is a disservice to the very people it claims to champion.
NEW: We've asked Platner's campaign since year to explain text messages showing his ex-girlfriend was describing his tattoo as a Nazi symbol months before Platner says he knew its meaning.
Platner was pressed on it last night and said, "I can’t say why."

Ossoff: Last September, the President of Kazakhstan calls Donald Trump and says he wants to grant tungsten mining rights to an American company. And the very next month, Eric and Don Jr. get a stake in the American company pursuing the mining deal.
Six days later, six days after Prince Eric and Prince Don get their stake, Kazakhstan announces this company will get, “The largest known undeveloped tungsten resource in the world.” A few more weeks go by, and then the U.S. government, run by their father, sets aside 1.6 billion of your tax dollars to fund and finance their mining project. In Kazakhstan.
All this while you pay more for gas, for groceries, for health care, and that's just the tip of the iceberg.
I keep thinking about this story. Platner getting into an accident (we don't know who was at fault), calling the police to report the other person, then getting a DUI himself.
The US hard left want to point to a 19 year old Azov soldier with a neo-Nazi patch on his uniform and condemn an entire country to destruction in response, then look at a 41 year old ex-Blackwater mercenary with a Totenkopf tattooed on his chest and elect him into high office.
No surprises! Check out my solid background and reform ideas at https://t.co/vrUS1jL1DC. And know that fundraising, voter recognition, and press attention won’t be a challenge post primary (versus Susan Collins)...
