Horrified to read that German town Heidenau wants to stop laying stolpersteine (brass memorial plaques noting where Holocaust victims lived). Doomed to repeat history if we cannot learn from it. apnews.com/article/germ... @apnews.com

Yet he still has a job, still getting paid, and getting unlimited world class healthcare.

The “Platner comes from money and his oyster business was a gift from Mom” facts have been out there but woefully under/unreported by the media and willfully ignored by many on the left, to say nothing of the pattern of how he treats and thinks about women. What a disaster this has been.
Lawrence O’Donnell dismantles the myth of Graham Platner.
And warning signs were there all along. Information was publicly available, but ignored.
Maybe the U.S. Senate shouldn’t be someone’s first political job. No public office. No real vetting. Hype isn’t a substitute for scrutiny.

The U.S. trade deficit rose by over 40% last month, reaching $77.6 billion.
That's the largest since March 2025 and higher than the monthly average during Biden's term.
Trump's tariffs have failed to make a dent.

yeah, this is a credible allegation of rape from five years ago by someone who supports Platner politically with documentation of corroboration from others she told well before Platner's campaign started.
his response is bluster and smears.
he should drop out. right now.

Reminder: there is no excuse for smearing women who come forward about sexual assault. It doesn’t make you righteous because you agree politically with the abuser.

Reminder that "real Maine guy" was recruited by two consultants who were not from Maine
Because the consultants decided a cursory vetting would be adequate, and Bernie plus whoever else wanted it done fast. Those folks have a lot to answer for, IMO.
And every red flag during the primary was brushed aside with "But charisma! Working class! Town halls! Momentum!"

I'll summarize this: Mamdani asked NYers to keep air conditioning at 78 degrees. A wave criticism hit online. A MSNBC broadcast pointed out the US Department of Energy recommends that 78 degree figure.
Immediately after, the US Department of Energy deleted 6,000 web pages related to energy saving.
