The ancient Greeks were often right: character is destiny. Hubris is one’s undoing.

The warning signs in Graham Platner were there in plain sight. Many chose not to see them. Others extended him a presumption of grace they would never have given to their ideological enemies.

This is a moment not for schadenfreude, however tempting, but for self-reflection.

@KenGardner11 My understanding is that she was approached by the NYT as one of several women with similar stories and they ran that instead. The NYT has beyond destroyed any remaining credibility and should be retired into the dustbin of history.

[MAZE @mazemoore]

Here's video of Kara Swisher and Scott Galloway just a couple weeks ago defending Graham Platner and saying that Platner's past should not matter at all.

They defended the nazi tattoo, the obscene posts, the sexting, all of it.

Swisher (a self-proclaimed strong feminist) said that Platner reminded him of Bill Clinton because Clinton made some mistakes but was a good President.

Galloway (a Jew) gave Platner a "hall pass" for his nazi tattoo.

The only thing that matters to the Left is power. When you see them outraged about anything, remember they truly do not care. It is all performative.

These two frauds have both accused Elon Musk of making nazi gestures. Galloway once said he couldn't drive a Tesla anymore because a joke Musk made could be interpreted as homophobic.

Two terrible people.

Notice it's not "rape is bad," it's "I don't think he can win now."

I actually understand why Democrat leaders didn't take our stories seriously when the Times reported them in June but are taking them seriously now.

It was by design.

The line most shared from the piece was the claim that the Times “could not corroborate” my story despite talking to two of my friends.

I gave them the contact information for five friends.

They called the two who I clarified would not know about the abuse but would be able to affirm our relationship timeline, events, etc.

They simply did not call the other three.

I also gave them the names of all my former roommates who remembered him stalking our row house (which was about 5 houses down from his) and waiting for me to return. I gave them screenshots of messages between these roommates and I discussing it.

I gave them the names of other men I dated who might have remembered him following us around the hill and showing up on my stoop after we walked home from dates to confront us. I gave them emails to my landlord urgently ending my lease and moving to an apartment across town and diary entries talking about it - all time marked.

I told them that during pre-marital counseling I had spoken to my ex-fiance about the abuse because I had to explain to him why I reacted with such terror any time he lost his temper. They said oh NO we don't need to bother HIM (or my priest). Besides, I had written about it in my diary in detail, they reassured.

As the weeks dragged on I stopped trying to give them evidence because the amount I had already given them seemed to overwhelm them and I thought it meant they clearly had more than enough to verify my every claim.

My friends might not have known the details of the abuse, but they affirmed that yes, I had told them that he was abusive—long before he ran for Senate.

Besides, they assured, my part in their reporting would be small. I thought my details would only serve to affirm Jenny and the other anonymous woman.

Jenny and I - having never met or spoken - both shared with these reporters terrifyingly similar details of intimate partner violence, coercive control, and cycles of abuse/love bombing. The third unnamed woman in the story did as well.

But tell me again how they “could not corroborate.”

[Dr. Maalouf ‏ @realMaalouf]

The Egyptian Football Association released a video titled: “The Secret to Victory.”

They openly declare that the key to victory is to begin each match by cursing Christians and Jews.

Before every game, the team gathers to recite Quranic passages describing Christians and Jews as infidels under Allah’s wrath.

Coptic Christians make up 15% of Egypt’s population, yet they are not allowed on the national team.

Now, the Islamic team of Egypt has been eliminated by the ‘infidel’ nation of Argentina. Allah was not on their side.

@FrankLuntz Platner disqualified himself for many voters months ago after the info about his past and recent past revealed poor character and inability to make good choices.

@EYakoby @awstar11 To Khanna ain’t going away anytime soon. He’s a slimeball politician with money and ambition. He will change his spots as needed.

@DanFriedman81 @jtLOL Kavanaugh was portrayed like this solely because of evidence-free accusations:

[Michelle Tandler @michelletandler]

So let me get this straight --

Last month the New York Times put "Israeli trained rape dogs" on their front page -- with zero evidence...

... But played down/hid the rape allegations of someone running for US SENATE..?!

[Yemisi Egbewole @yemisi]

This may be hard for people who are not my skin tone, Jewish, or just decent humans to grasp, but the line was the Nazi tattoo. The “new information was brought to light” posts don’t absolve you. They just mean you arrived late to what was always blatantly obvious.

Left clip, June 7. Molly Jong-Fast tees up Rick Wilson to smear the Platner accuser as a right wing operative

Right clip, Today. Fast is dismayed that Democrats ran Platner without proper vetting

“I don’t know we got here!"

Media revisionism on this is going to be next level

@neontaster Basically, if there’s a home invasion…someone’s gotta get raped. #MaineRules

[B.T. Mattison @BT_Mattison]

@RoKhanna But there was an allegation before today. That was buried and ignored. By the Democrat Party. That’s you…

[B.T. Mattison @BT_Mattison]

@donnabrazile Yes! It’s about time someone spoke up for the victim in this matter!
