This is a brilliant ad, as he’s directly targeting independents in a very independent state.

Graham Platner for Senate@grahamformaine.bsky.social

The only thing the DC establishment can agree on is a love of Jeffrey Epstein — and a hatred of me. Together, we will take back our government from the Epstein class. WATCH: Our new TV ad

Lyndon Johnson was not a man of good personal character. But the US wouldn’t have Medicare and the Civil Rights Act without him. Sometimes it works that way.

Even if Platner becomes “another Fetterman” - which I think is highly unlikely - the truth is that Fetterman still votes with the Democrats 75% of the time. Susan Collins votes with Trump 95% of the time.

Just as the slave power was defeated in the 19th c., so Trump’s Christian fascist horde will be laid low. Unfortunately they will ruin many lives before they’re obliterated.

Decades of unbridled consumerism combined with glorification of the individual over and against society. No surprise that the US has degenerated into a rump democratic state.

You are up to date.
