The Dem establishment appears to be putting its thumb hard on the scales against Graham Platner:

The DSCC (Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee) has formed a joint fundraising committee with the campaign of Janet Mills.

It’s called “Maine Senate Victory 2026”:

The Beacon of Democracy Goes Dark

For nearly 250 years, America promoted freedom and equality abroad, even when it failed to live up to those ideals itself. Not anymore.

'Martin Jensen, an officer specially trained to assess whether individuals are impaired or suffering from a medical emergency, was called to the scene. But audio from a bodycam picked up Jensen stating that the assessment would be “a whole bunch of time wasted,” the local outlet reports.'

NUMEROUS ppl responsible for ensuring this man's safety were so blinded by literal evil intentions (I can't think of any other word for it) that they allowed him to suffer & die from a massive stroke standing by w callous disregard for his humanity.

Looks delicious!

For example: "No, trans people aren't 'groomers' & have no interest whatsoever in sexualizing children. Rather, the overwhelmingly vast majority of actual groomers are non-trans men."

What Mamdani & a few other Dems aren't demonstrating is that the correct response to right-wing lies is to firmly & unapologetically explain that they are lies & tell the truth.

Mike Nitabach @mnitabach.blackskycomra.de · 1d

When right-wingers attack Democrats with lies, professional Dems reflexively try to run away from what they're being accused of or, at best, "split the difference" between the lies & reality.

Almost certainly, his ENTIRE LIFE has always been doing jack shit and complaining... 😹😹😹

"This isn’t about being politically reckless. It’s about recognizing that abandoning trans people doesn’t make the attacks stop. It just tells Republicans they were right to target us, and it tells trans people that Democrats don’t actually have their backs when things get hard."

A Politician Actually Defended Trans People. It Shouldn't Be This Rare.

Many Democrats are treating trans people as politically toxic. NYC mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani released a two-minute video proving there's another way.
