🎥🇺🇸 Asked whether a week of intense scrutiny made him consider dropping out, Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner said the experience showed why ordinary people are discouraged from running for office, and why that needs to change.
He said the attacks had only strengthened his commitment to that goal. “Part of that really has to be making politics accessible to people who have lived regular lives, not just the people who prepared for it.”
It’s more important that the main accuser (the one who makes the most sensational allegations) is fanatically pro-Israel than that she’s a Republican. That’s why they’re doing this. Bethany Mandel is a nut job who said the “animals” in Gaza should be nuked but for the fact it’d harm Israelis. Maybe she’s not as extreme as her friend, but birds of a feather tend to flock together.
Anyway, it’s about alleged acts from 13 or so years ago. Otherwise it basically sounds like he drank too much sometimes and was a shitty boyfriend, which describes half of American men
@MarcoFoster_@KyleKulinski The dishonest, hysterical frenzy has exceeded our worst expectations of the military-industrial complex, Zionist movement and myriad deceitful denizens of the swamp terrified by Platner for his effective criticism of Genocide , Israel-sanctioned rape, and slaughter of children.
The New York Times story on Graham is frankly one of the most pathetic smear jobs I've ever seen. The claim is just "unsettling behavior" and they cite a LITERAL REPUBLICAN OPERATIVE he used to date. As far as I'm concerned his biggest crime is dating a creature as loathsome as a Republican.
@Jerusalem_Post Yeah, that's the problem on campus—not enough fealty, sensitivity for Zionist students as they face enormous pressures to be silent. Maybe you should take a trip to Saudi Arabia, they'll pay for comedians. Personally, I never got over the assassination of Emiliano Zapata.
@liberpopulus91@NateSilver538 Silver slips easily to mouthing obvious lies about Platner. Silver's character, integrity, intellectual honesty all gone in service to a genocidal, terrorist state. Must be an all-hands-on-deck cause this freakout implicates every neo-lib journal: Atlantic, NYT, NR, WSJ nospace.
@NateSilver538 Nonsense. Platner's defense is all punches against Trump, includes hits against Democrats, chicken-hawk war-cheerleaders and Zionists; Zionist atrocities explaining your dishonest reference to Fetterman, and ahistorical statement of ME. Zionism forces everyone it touches to lie.
@DanRShafer 2/2 Bush-Cheney positions were nonsensical, dishonest, both parties denied results. Fla voter obstruction purged 1,000s of legal voters from rolls, (what Trump is trying to do now). In 2000, Dems infamously lodged no complaint in Congress. Dems should get their act together.
@DanRShafer Near-universal censure of those holding political position—disputing 2020 elections—is taboo morality. Nonsensical, dishonest view for sure, but this branding 'denier' veers into thought-crime, political indictments. Are all Bush v Gore 2000 litigants similarly guilty? 1/2
@neeratanden@bariweiss Yes, @BariWeiss destroyed @CBSNews But it's intellectually dishonest to omit that @CBSNews@CBSMornings long ago became propaganda outlets for DoD, intel comm, bio-pharma monstrosity; woke nonsense; platforms for inanity such as Robin DiAngelo @ibramxk , some other Xs, I'm sure.
Do Jews face racism in Britain today?
No.
Not from the state or at any institutionalised level.
Jews are not stopped or detained by the police or uni services for being Jews. Muslims are.
And Jews are not structurally disadvantaged in the housing or job market, two more signs of racist discrimination. Muslims are.
Jews as ‘Zionists’ or supporters of genocide, do face pushback and opposition and words or actions that may make them uncomfortable, but none of these are capable of amounting to ‘racism’, since they are not against them ‘as Jews.’
Hamawy served as a combat surgeon in Iraq, which we invaded based on lies told by Ari Fleischer. Hamawy told me yesterday that on heavy days of battle he’d operate on as many as 30-40 American servicemembers, triaging where he had to.
Ari bears significant responsibility for every single one of those maimed men and women that Hamawy worked to save.
Now to have the balls to link him to Al Qaeda is not remotely the most shameful thing he’s done in his life, but it has to be in the top ten.
