I’m sure that McConnell was a great listener that day.

    Barrasso spokesperson Kate Noyes said the two discussed a number of topics, including recent sexual assault allegations against Maine Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner (allegations Platner has denied) and national defense spending, during a 20-minute phone conversation on Tuesday afternoon.

    Billionaires that own American media really want the anti-genocide progressive to drop out…

    They’re shoehorning it into everything these days, and apparently even McConnell is focused on stopping Platner.

      I’d just also like to call out that Republicans are using McConnell’s warm corpse as a campaign billboard and that is weirdly hilarious.

        The highlight for me was his wife immediately hoping on a jet to Bejing to meet with Chinese officials days after he had to be revived with CPR in their home.

        Married for 30+ years and she immediately went as far away as she could without leaving the fucking planet.

      god… y’all gotta shut up about your rapist candidate. They really should pull a Biden/Harris fast. They’re gonna single handedly keep Maine under the billionaires thumb by running this chud. Even Mamdani, who has the same aides, is saying Platner is a bad look for the left.

      You guys really just wanna soften vets that haven’t done the work to redeem themselves. American Imperialist Vets shouldn’t be in office anyway but y’all also aren’t ready for that conversation.

      And I’ll say it again: Believing women doesn’t mean believing allegations until it’s against someone you like. Deeply ingrained misogyny makes you think ppl like Platner are so cool.

      Also this is hilarious:

      apparently even McConnell is focused on stopping Platner.

      Lmfao. Yeah I’m sure he’s doing a whole lot 😂
