Gee, why would long-time party staffers prefer the long-time party stalwart who promoted the party for decades over the guy who spent decades shitting on the party until the very moment he decided to run to be the head of it?

I'm reminded of the 2016 primary when Bernie bros "accused" DNC staffers of "preferring Hillary" and of "grumbling" about having to share DNC data/resources with his campaign.

HEY MAINE PRIMARY VOTERS:

If you don't like Mills but also don't want to vote for the guy who claims he didn't recognize a Nazi SS insignia on his own chest for 18 years even though he also claims to be a WWII military history buff, you might consider this woman.

Anna Sale: When news came out about your tattooβ€”the skull-and-crossbones design that resembles Nazi imageryβ€”you said it was fed from people researching your background who wanted to discredit you. Do you understand it to have come from national Democrats?

Graham Platner: We have our suspicions. The governor announced the campaign on a Tuesday and all of the negative stories began to drop Wednesday, Thursday, Friday of that week. You don’t have to do a lot of deep thinking to find connections there.

Here's his big "accusation:" That he "suspects" the DSCC "fed" the story about the Nazi tattoo to the media to "discredit" him.

As if the fact that HE HAD A LARGE NAZI SS TOTENKOPF TATTOO ON HIS CHEST FOR 18 YEARS was something which they should have kept mum about.

This thread is not about whether Platner is a Nazi. It’s about how he lies like a toddler when he’s cornered. And that’s enough. He’s not electable, and Susan Collins knows it. You can too, if you can read this thread, or this 18-page document. 2/

Let’s talk about Graham Platner’s Big Lie, finally. In 2009, at the height of the Gulf War, the Marines barred him from active duty. Platner claims it was his forearm tattoos. But his one forbidden tattoo was the Nazi symbol on his chest. He knew - and he left the Marines rather than give it up. 1/

If Platner hates the Democratic Party as much as he keeps saying he does ... then why is he running in its primary

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.

Behold: the first-ever list of news outlets that have banned generative AI in their reporting. As of today, this is literally information that you cannot find on Google.

My goal is to fill the starter pack, so please send over suggestions with supporting evidence!

Say it plain: This is a terrible jobs report.

The U.S. economy lost 92,000 jobs in February, nearly double the expected loss of 50,000. It’s the third payroll decline in the past five months.

πŸ“ŒNote: This is one of the worst monthly payroll drops since Covid.

I could see them doing that, although it'd be a bit tricky since I'm raising money for pretty much EVERY Democratic nominee under the sun, which I'm sure includes some of the candidates they're supporting as well.

The Republican-controlled House and Senate refused their constitutional obligations today by not initiating the War Powers resolution. But they did not affirm, authorize, or support the war at all in any way. It remains completely illegal.

This is honestly one of the most anti-Jewish things I’ve ever seen from the United States government.

"This woman told the FBI that Epstein and Trump discussed blackmail, and days later he suicided in prison.

And after that, the FBI wanted to focus on Trump because, well, Epstein wasn’t around to be prosecuted anymore.

Then, years later, DOJ attempted to withhold documents recording all that."

The Most Chilling Detail in the U.S. Attack on an Iranian Naval Ship The Iranian warship was taking part in an international exercise with many other countriesβ€”including the United States.

This is a chilling crime. A shame on our country. The Iranian ship was unarmed. The US knew this. The sailors were murdered by our navy, and the survivors were left to die at sea.
