When Joe Biden was determined to be too old, the media wouldn't relent on that story until public opinion matched their coverage and he was finished. They dont have any interest in turning the public against this fucking nazi and its a CHOICE.

I blew a gasket when Ro Khanna went on about credentialed elites. Damn f'n right I want folk trained and credentialed in difficult jobs.

If elected, PLATNER. *WILL.* BE. THE. NEW. FETTERMAN.

MARK THIS POST.

Guy who helped create the Tara Reade hoax knew Platner before Platner announced his Senate candidacy?

As I’ve said many times, a journalist who was a Russian asset might act exactly like Grim.

okay so this seems pretty clear. he knows what it is, he did it on purpose, he chose keeping it over his career with the Marines, if we know this then Susan Collins will also know it, it will 100% come up in the general, let's be done talking about this guy as a real candidate

One thing I hate about all the defenses of Platner is the underlying, deeply dumb and destructive belief that it's all about casting. Wanted: Rugged bearded tell-it-like-it-is oysterman to appeal to the great anxious white center, the holy grail of politics. Further details not of immense concern. >

It’s called β€œvetting,” asshole. You’re running for a high-profile U.S. Senate seat with zero political experience. Of COURSE they’re gonna dig into your past. That’s standard.

Once again: Everything is a conspiracy when you don’t have a clue how anything works.

The media always treats the more sensational Trump accusations in the Epstein files with a level of skepticism that would be appropriate for Jimmy Carter, not the guy who bragged about sexual assault on tape, was adjudicated guilty of sexual assault, and is currently overseeing murder dot gov.

Lastly there's the deepest level, which structures so much of our politics: A lot of these dudes think the D party has become the "girl" party and that it cannot win elections if it's the "girl" party; and they're utterly desperate to support any candidate they think will increase the D's manliness

what i think is going on w/ graham platner fwiw: a certain cohort of D pundits & self-appointed leaders, disproportionately male and gentile, have decided that in order to appeal to low-trust men (whose votes they seem to think count more) it's necessary to allow a little antisemitism, as a treat

Democrats may not be able to prevent Mullin's confirmation, but they can certainly turn his track record of offense and stupidity into two days of televised humiliation so spectacular that he is wounded in Trump's eyes from day 1. That is the job.

Kristi Noem has done a stunning amount of damage and it’s good she’s gone.

But this doesn’t change the fact that we need a complete overhaul of DHS, impartial investigations into the killings of two American citizens, and information on children that were taken from Minnesota.

"Platner is a fighter." Where? How? The only thing I've seen him fight so far are questions about his nazi tattoo, and he's done pretty damn poorly doing that.

They literally spent the past 4-plus years blasting Biden over the withdrawal from Afghanistan and how "rushed" it was.

Always remember that the American state media attacked President Biden relentlessly more for his age as he was doing good work than they ever have with the orange felon who is setting the world on fire out of spite and revenge. They deliberately and consistently failed humanity.

there's a definite, "I can never convince conservatives of anything but I can abuse someone with 90% of my beliefs into apologizing for living" set on here.

You know if the DOJ had any evidence on Hillary Clinton, they'd have already leaked it to every right-wing influencer and podcaster.

Vance says Minnesota’s Medicaid funds halted as part of Trump’s β€˜war on fraud’ Vice-president makes announcement with Mehmet Oz, who says other states will be next after Minnesota

Let’s call this what it is, the Trump regime is punishing MN for being a blue state. Seniors, children, people of low income will be negatively impacted by this. They’re showing their depravity, cruelty & immorality daily.

Blind refugee abandoned by Border Patrol dies in Buffalo. A nearly blind refugee abandoned by Border Patrol miles from his home dies in Buffalo after having been missing for nearly a week.

Border Patrol dropped a blind refugee 5 miles from his home at night.

No English, no call to his family / lawyer.

Nurul Alam, 56, was found dead 5 days later on a Buffalo street.

He had an immigration detainer - not a criminal warrant or order of removal.

If we'd ended the filibuster under Biden, this garbage SAVE Act would be law now.

Abigail Spanberger being a more unapologetic liberal as governor of Virginia is a sign of what happens when Democrats have a bigger majority in their state legislatures. We saw the same thing when Tim Walz went from being a Blue Dog pro-gun Democrat to being a progressive as governor.

The more I think about this post the more it pisses me off. This isn’t a depth problem because Platner wasn’t on the bench! He was just some guy and then Bernie threw his support behind and he became a serious candidate

This clown is the embodiment of militant failsonism, the center piece guy for building a notionally private sector state media organization. worst of the worst.

See, there's *always* something else going on here.

"Biden has Dementia" becomes "Biden is in Cognitive Decline" becomes "Biden is Too Old" becomes "Biden is too frail, oldness is fine, actually".
