@RahmEmanuel’s candid, tough-love speech in Tel Aviv deserves attention from anyone who cares about the future of both Israelis and Palestinians.

Wow -- just watched the video -- @grahamformaine declares he is the victim in all this -- blames the "structures" being taken away by those in power! My thoughts plus @MarkHalperin@LarryOConnor@KevinPWalling at the top of the house.
Graham Platner is holding the race hostage. This is selfish and disturbing, and not what the people of Maine deserve.
You have no say on your successor when you’ve been accused of rape.
Is Graham Platner finished?
@LarryOConnor says not so fast. @KevinPWalling and I think the writing is on the wall.
On today's "The Morning Meeting," we debate Platner's future, who Democrats could turn to in Maine to take on Susan Collins, and what this saga means for Democratic candidates nationwide.
Plus: President Trump's trip to Turkey, the apparent end of the U.S.-Iran MOU, and what comes next.

Here’s your friendly reminder from Kevin Walling that every Democrat in the House voted in support of National Voter ID included in the Freedom to Vote Act.
Not one Republican voted for it.
The #SAVEActIsPayToVote and is a way for Trump and Republicans to rig the midterms.
“This guy is a sociopath,” says @KevinPWalling about Graham Platner. “The ego on this guy to potentially stay in this race — I don’t put that past him — and there’s no shame. There was no shaming this guy over the Nazi tattoo, over all of this sexting… all the the abuse that is well documented. And he saw in recent polling that he’s in the margin of error with Susan Collins. So there is no shaming this guy.” @grahamformaine@susancollins@MarkHalperin@LarryOConnor@2waytvapp
President Trump says the MOU with Iran is kaput. Now what?

Platner's pains won't stay in Maine: Can't explain, won't refrain, while Democrats complain. @MarkHalperin, @LarryOConnor & @KevinPWalling cover it all live Wednesday at 9am ET on The Morning Meeting. #NoSmack

I was just confessing my love for Kevin Walling, a Democrat strategist, to a friend on X, and when I tried to add the requisite disclaimer @nohomo, X changed my wording to @NoHomophobia, which was exactly what I meant! Thank you X!
The latest accusations against Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner, President Trump at the NATO summit in Turkey, and another week without Congress led today's return episode of "The Morning Meeting."
Plus, a deep dive into Michigan's Senate race ahead of tonight's Democratic debate, the latest on the Strait of Hormuz, and much more with @LarryOConnor, @KevinPWalling, and me.

One of the reporters who broke the story is my friend and former coworker @jsscppr who lived and worked in local news in Maine for almost a decade, she does not “work” for the “donor class,” and definitely knows more about the pine tree state than the guy tweeting from LA
“Everyone in politics is replaceable…and Graham Platner is fundamentally not a decent human being and should not be one of 100 senators in this country”
What was true months ago when I said this on @2waytvapp’s The Morning Meeting is more true today.
