The spell...it's breaking. Sh*t's gonna get weird and s**t. Stay prayed up and vigilant. They're gonna use every algorithmic resource and programming trick in the book, including the "break glass in case of emergency" patriotic propaganda push 👁
Maine Democrats just sent a message to the corporate media establishment: we don’t take our orders from you.
Graham Platner won Tuesday’s Democratic Senate primary with a staggering 77.7% of the vote — a margin that obliterated pre-primary polling and exposed just how out of touch the pundit class has become with ordinary Democratic voters.
The knives came out early and never stopped. When opposition research surfaced about controversial Reddit posts and a tattoo he’d unknowingly gotten of a N*zi symbol, establishment Democrats clearly hoped Platner would simply drop out and leave the lane open for Governor Janet Mills. He didn’t. Then, days before the primary, the New York Times published a hit-piece where a former Republican operate who dated Platner called Platner’s behavior “toxic” — a story his campaign dismissed as an attempt to make sure voters weren’t “talking about healthcare” or “raising taxes on the rich.” The article happened to be written by a hack journalist who pumped out anti-Zohran Mamdani hit-pieces before his New York City mayoral win.
Corporate Democrats saw this as an opportunity. Some who had already endorsed Platner after Mills dropped out began quietly distancing themselves. Rep. Josh Gottheimer went on television demanding Platner step aside and let the party appoint a replacement.
Maine voters responded by giving Platner nearly four times the votes of sitting Maine Governor, Janet Mills.
During his victory speech, Platner addressed his critics directly: “The national pundits, the political establishment — they keep looking for that one story, that one headline, that one moment in my life that they can define the campaign by. But in trying so hard to understand me, they failed to understand that this is not about me at all. This is a movement about us.”
His economic populism is resonating - nearly half of Maine voters say their households are financially worse off than a year ago. Corporate media ran a smear campaign. Maine Democrats ran to the polls.
