Platner cannot win in the general now, he's toast. Mills needs to be pressured on the filibuster, but unless another candidate steps up she's the best chance to beat Collins.

Very sad. When you are 86 at the end of the next term, most likely you will not be physically capable of standing up for anyone. Please choose your successor and drop out.

The difference is a matter of competence and organization, not character.

You had a nazi tattoo on your chest for nearly twenty years. You joked about it as your little totenkopf. You lied about when you learned what it meant.

Most of my family was murdered by people who wore the insignia you kept on your chest.

Maine has an antisemitism problem. I've experienced it.

You have become a shell of your former self. A disgrace. Backing a Nazi is inexcusable. You probably are senile. Please just retire already.

ICE has drug off many people, including legal residents.

Every respectable university should promise first consideration for any UVA professor who resigns in solidarity.

I'm going to go with my college stadium, which was smaller than the local high school stadium, BECAUSE COLLEGE IS FOR FUCKING LEARNING NOT SPORTS!

Having something that can fly also drive on roads will always be pointless.

Bernie, if you can't denounce the guy with a nazi tattoo, we're done. Thanks for the many years of service, but it is time to retire. You don't have it anymore.

I wonder if age is finally catching up to him. This one is just so obvious.

Well, he is on Bluesky saying a guy who has a nazi tattoo doesn't have a nazi tattoo.

I'm willing to bet you don't like Jews too much.

Similar for me. We were camping near Bar Harbor and the campground offered lobster dinner (I know) delivered to the site. I took out my wallet and happened to have a bunch of singles.

"Got yourself a Jewish bankroll."

Right in front of my daughter.

Personally I've experienced some of the worst casual antisemitism in Maine.

I hate to say it but 16% margin is no big loss. Oracle will be okay. It’s the openAI investors paying for all this who will see their money disappear if their investment strategy continues to be building data centers and burning electricity while giving away their product for free or below cost.

Vance is going all in on defending the Young Republican Nazi group chats because he is one of them.

The Bulwark @thebulwark.com · 14d

Vance on public outrage over the "I love Hitler" group chat: "Grow up! Focus on the real issues. Don't focus on what kids say in group chats... The reality is that kids do stupid things, especially young boys — they tell edgy, offensive jokes. That's what kids do."

I used to see requests for funding rural hospitals and think, "that's a great program, fund it."

Now I think, "that's a great program, I'm happy to fund it in a bill alongside urban priorities."

This semantical argument about whether these wicked people are best labeled by an early 20th century term is not important.

Governor Scott is not representative of the Republican Party. That little shit bigot is. But Scott is still never worthy of a vote due his association with a party dominated by little shit bigots.

I'm trying to figure out what companies he currently owns. He needs to be boycotted. I came up with a few, but I'm not sure if he still owns a substantial share in them. Claires, Great Wolf Lodge, Rackspace, Caesars entertainment, etc.

Kristi Noem, while governor of South Dakota, supplemented her roughly $130,000 salary by secretly accepting $80,000 donated to a political nonprofit she was affiliated with, records show.

She never disclosed this income on federal ethics forms.
