BREAKING: O.M.G. The woman accusing Graham Platner of "intimidation" has been EXPOSED as a top Republican operative who has worked with his opponent, Susan Collins! This is EXACTLY what they did to Al Franken… On Thursday evening, the New York Times ran a story in which a woman, Lindsey Fifield, accused Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner of grabbing her by the arm, twisting her arm, and of standing in a doorway menacingly blocking her exit. The New York Times could not corroborate any of her accusations, but ran the story anyway, along with allegations from a few other women that Graham Platner could be unsettling, had dark thoughts, and generally had spooky vibes as a boyfriend. They also spoke to several other women who said he was a lovely boyfriend and they happily supported his candidacy. It’s now coming out that Lindsey Fifeld is a lifelong GOP operative who has worked with Platner’s Republican opponent, Susan Collins, and successfully persuaded her to vote in favor of Brett Kavanaugh, Trump’s Supreme Court justice who is an ACTUAL rapist. In one message to a friend, Fifeld wrote “I will personally go campaign for Collins.” Reporter Ryan Grim at Drop Site News reports that “In 2014, Fifield began work as digital director for American Action Network, a Republican Super PAC that oversees House races. The next year she became social media manager for the Heritage Foundation, where she stayed for the next seven years.” “In 2022, she joined the Super PAC backing Nikki Haley for president, switching to the official campaign side the next year, and staying until the campaign flamed out. She now lists herself as a visiting fellow at the Independent Women’s Forum, a prominent dark money group that is best known for helping usher Brett Kavanaugh on to the Supreme Court and giving Susan Collins the talking points she needed to make her decisive speech in his favor.“ “The NYT breezed past all this, saying she was ‘a Virginia conservative who has worked for right-leaning groups and Republican campaigns.’” “Meanwhile, the timeline Fifield gives of their relationship is confusing, because during at least some of that time she was actually dating a different person, her longterm boyfriend who became her fiancee before she called off the wedding in 2018. We all know this because she and [Zionist extremist Bethany] Mandel did a podcast episode on it that went mega-viral in Republican circles back then.” It should be noted as well that Lindsey Fifeld has a long history of making up baseless lies about Palestinians targeted by the Trump administration like Mahmoud Khalil and Rumeysa Ozturk. Folks, pardon our French, but this is *bullshit.* This is an abhorrent attempt to weaponize domestic violence and the mental trauma of dealing with PTSD in order to sink a leftist candidate who staunchly opposes the Israeli genocide of Gaza. Oh, and if that wasn't enough, the reporter on this article is Katie Gluek, an ardent Zionist whose parents are Israeli settler-occupiers in the West Bank. Platner’s campaign responded with “Let’s be very clear: This is a lifelong G.O.P. operative who’s dedicated her career to electing Republicans.” What else is there to say? Graham Platner is obviously a very imperfect person, but we are not electing him to be our boyfriend. He has been very open about his struggles with PTSD; he saw four of his squadmates killed in an IED explosion in Iraq. This smear campaign, based on uncorroborated allegations by a woman who literally said she would work for his opponent, is part of his punishment for being a progressive who isn’t afraid to stand against Israel, to stand against the health insurance behemoths, and to demand a better life for the American people. They managed to sink Al Franken like this. They will NOT succeed again!

EXCLUSIVE SCOOP — Heavily redacted tax returns volunteered by the Tommy Tuberville @CoachForGov campaign as proof of his residency inadvertently exposed the sitting U.S. senator’s tax history, income details and sensitive information. The tax documents were disclosed by attorneys for Tuberville’s gubernatorial campaign Monday night in a formal response to an election challenge pending with the Alabama Republican Party. The documents blacked out nearly all details other than names and filing status, but left intact a scannable barcode at the top corner of the forms. When scanned, that code renders the data from the entire tax return, from Social Security numbers, driver’s license information, wages, deductions, and investment earnings. I detail what the data reveals about Tuberville's tax history and the questions it raises. lagniappemobile.com/news/alabama/c…

Actual Maine voters stand by Graham Platner: “Does he have a problematic past? Yes, but I would rather have a redemption story than somebody telling you how wonderful they are, how much research they do, and yet they still make the wrong decision for the people of Maine” “Would I date him? No, but we’re not looking for perfection. We are where we are, we have a Senate that’s controlled by the Republicans who are not holding this president in check and that is a higher priority”

"I'll be in Iowa as much as humanly possible" isn't the answer Iowans deserve from someone running for governor of our state. We need a leader who's all in for Iowa—not a political operative who spends more time in Kansas.

Democrats should start buying radio slots in rural markets talking about screwworm and Argentinian beef imports. Both pain points on rural Ag communities where just informational advertising can move votes. Rural radio is cheap to play in and still has decent audience numbers

NEW: Former 60 Minutes correspondent Steve Kroft says Scott Pelley spoke up "not just for himself ... I think he was doing that for Sharyn Alfonsi, who was fired. And for Cecilia Vega, who was fired. And for Tanya Simon, who was fired. And for Draggan Mihailovich, who was fired. All of these people are incredibly good journalists, and the kind of people you would need if you wanted to continue to put a program like 60 Minutes on the air, and now they are gone." More tonight on the @NewsHour

First in @TexasTribune: @GinaHinojosaTX, the Democratic nominee for Texas governor, is launching her first ad buy of the general election with a digital spot to be aired during the NBA Finals between the San Antonio Spurs and the New York Knicks. texastribune.org/2026/06/03/tex…

So let me get this straight. Jake Tapper is focused on attacking my Mom. Jared and Ivanka are building a private island paradise on Albanian protected land. Don Jr married the daughter of Epstein’s banker, and a startup his fund backs just got a record $620M Pentagon loan. Eric is taking an Israeli drone company public for $1.5B in the middle of a war with Iran that nobody wanted. And I know: “But what about your paintings, Hunter?” Please.

Yes I sold paintings. About $225,000 a year over four years. The whole of my business while my father was President. Congress investigated it. If you’re outraged about that, where is all your outrage now? Kushner's Affinity Partners holds roughly $5 to $6 billion. Close to 99% of it comes from foreign sovereign wealth funds. Saudi Arabia. The UAE. Qatar. Over $90M in fees annually.

I spent 24 years wearing this nations uniform. Do you know what nobody ever told me? That if I worked hard enough and sacrificed enough, someday my military career could be decided by the political opinion of a Fox News pundit playing Defense Secretary.

Jon Ossoff: There is no way to regain the Senate majority without winning this Senate race in Georgia. I am the only Democratic senator running for reelection in a state that Donald Trump won. I expect the national Republican Party will spend hundreds of millions of dollars to try to unseat me. Georgia is a very, very tough battleground state.

My name is Josh Turek. I am a 2-time gold medalist, 4-time Paralympian in wheelchair basketball, one of the first permanently disabled members of the Iowa House, and I am honored to be Iowa's Democratic nominee for United States Senate. If you are ready to push for change, join me: turek4iowa.com

Susan Collins is attacking Platner for infidelity. But you know that thing they say about glass houses and all? Maine reporter Andy O’Brien just reported that Collins carried on a years-long affair with a man while his 1st wife was battling cancer. This race is getting very messy

Holy shit. Maine reporter Andy O’Brien just implied that Susan Collins carried on a years-long affair with a man while his first wife was battling (and dying from) cancer

Congrats on tonight's win, @Gabe_NM! Gabe has earned a reputation as a bipartisan leader who puts New Mexico first. Whether it's lowering costs, protecting public lands, strengthening border security, or expanding access to health care, Gabe has focused on delivering practical solutions for working families. Gabe Vasquez has never stopped fighting for the people of #NM02. That's why New Mexico voters will send this trusted voice back to Washington this November.

Rep. Dean: "Does the Epstein File Transparency Act say that the files should be available to members of Congress with a minder at DOJ, where you're in a secure room, you can't, write on any of the binders, you can take your own notes. Is that what the Transparency Act says?"

Locked in: @RobSandIA is the Democratic nominee for governor in Iowa! Rob has spent his career going after fraudsters and bad actors as Iowa’s only statewide elected Democrat. Now, he’s running to end division and get results that will actually make a positive difference in people’s lives.

Congrats to Josh Turek on his win in Iowa! This race could not be more important. Josh has a track record of winning tough fights. His victory puts Iowa’s Senate seat squarely in play. Onto November!
