There is no such thing as “seems logical.” It either is logical or isn’t logical. If it SEEMS like it could be logical: it isn’t.

Yeah we’re not buying it. Mississippi republicans are vile racists and would lynch Rep. Thompson if they thought they could get away with it.

I mean if she is on the ballot then my ballot doesn't change. Mills, write in Andrea, Costello, end of ballot.

We can’t ever do improbable things if no one tries the impossible from time to time. Janet Mills will still be on the ballot. Rank her! #MillsForMaine #MEpolitics #MEsen #MEpo

Calling all idealists interested in joining a grassroots group of misfits and dreamers refusing to give up on the Maine primary for Janet Mills! She will be on the ballot. Join us in encouraging folks to rank her! #MePolitics #MEsen #MEpol I will writing letters to papers. What will you do?

I understand not wanting to waste time or energy but I don’t think that is a good enough reason to talk someone out of trying. We can’t ever do improbable things if no one tries the impossible from time to time.

I understand your point but the primary isn’t over and Maine does have the cushion of Ranked Choice Voting so there really is no harm in continuing to try. In fact, one could say that RCV is the perfect avenue to try something like this.

let the gop go after platner. they have the money and the necessity to attack him early and are doing so. next write letters to the editor of local papers. remind people the primary's not over and mills is on the ballot. also seed the idea of a write in campaign in the general.

Indeed. I am always for not giving up in the face of impossible odds. What is the point of living if we remain passive in the face of adversity? Better to climb mountains and seek greatness. I admire the conviction and I hope you do not give up.

Mills will still be on the ballot and can be ranked.

Unless there are other reasons. It holds that it is not impossible to bring Janet Mills back into the race. And why not? It’s the only true path to the general. Despite all the moronic punditry & grifting of the podcast & cosplay class - Mainers are largely real people who won’t like Platner.

💙💙💙 My kind of person! But our kind is rare. Most people give up and most people are not loyal. The vast majority of humans don’t know what it means to truly be loyal or ardent in conviction. Most are deeply malleable. So. How to turn the tide? How to pull people into this idea?

You mean you want to pull a Sen. Garfield (wouldn’t it have been great if he finished his term?) But, there are no historic analogs or precedents. Suspending is nearly same as withdrawing. Still, history has been made in our lifetimes (first Black president & Black woman VP) - not impossible.

We miss you!

This is in defense of voting for the nazi platner. We're to "wait and see" if this person is gullible for voting for a nazi who is actually a nazi. The privilege of being being able to wait and see if a nazi proves he's a nazi by doing nazi things.

Can someone let the AP know that violating court orders is not a sign of "executive power. " It is a sign of contempt, lawlessness and authoritarianism.

I keep seeing people explain why they trust Platner by saying that Collins is terrible and I just... ...that is not how truth works and you know it. The fact that you're making intellectually dishonest arguments just to get to "I trust without prood he isn't as bad as her *anymore*" is kinda...bad.

At least all the people tripping over themselves to defend Platner are telling us exactly who they are. I believe them

I have never been inundated by opponents to gun safety legislation on BlueSky before this week. I really believe that experts on disinformation political technology have the makings for a story/study related to Platner on social media platforms. bsky.app/profile/kevi...

GP: Senator John Kennedy Calls Graham ‘Nazi Tattoo’ Platner of Maine Part of the ‘Loon Wing’ of the Democrat Party (VIDEO) #JohnKennedy

📌It's Kentucky Derby Day and worth reminding everybody that thousands of horses die on the track each year. If that ruined your big race, I don't care.

Sometimes I’ll look at a Cybertruck and think, “Naw, this had to be an elaborate practical joke. No one would ever design and manufacture this monstrosity, and certainly no one would ever buy one.”

It should be leading news that the FBI has released a video they claim shows Cole Tomas Allen shooting at police, however the video shows zero shots fired by Allen. The FBI is lying and the media treats it like it’s normal.

So your argument is that Platner is too stupid to notice that the Nazis have got totenkopfs the same as on his chest. But people should vote for him. And also that he was an expert in everyone who wore the symbol who wasn’t a Nazi.

I love you too. And you have fought for Maine for so very long. Thank you @janetmillsforme.bsky.social 💙💙💙

Him and Angus King!

Just had to report three accounts in a row for mocking terrorism against Jewish people. A reminder that crimes against Jewish ppl account for about 70% of all religious based hate crime. Anti semitism is out of control. Do not be silent.

Tina releases “What’s Love Got to Do With It” 42 years ago today — a song she hated, but she deferred to her manager, Roger Davies, who was sure it would be a hit. When it won Song of the Year, Record of the Year and Best Female Vocal, she gave one of the awards to him. 🔥

A win! Thank you for always making your voices heard. The House passed a DHS funding bill by voice vote this afternoon, ending a 75-day shutdown the longest agency shutdown in U.S. history. The GOP caved. The bill funds DHS but includes no money for ICE or Customs and Border Protection.

Bullies are always cowards underneath it all.

NEW POLL! I'm humbled by these results — truly. But now is not the time to celebrate. There's work to do and I'm not slowing down. Thank you for believing in me. Let's go!

Thank you for the strong inclusion of her dog, Gilbert. Great photo too.

I hope Collins wins if he’s the nominee. Under NO circumstances do I want to see a Nazi under the Democratic banner.

Adoption day for doggies and their human families 💙🥹. Please do not shop for fur babies and consider adopting instead.

Exactly! People are saying Democrats should platform NAZIS to win elections while telling Black people to go to the back of the electoral bus!

You want to know why some of y’all get side-eyed?! We are standing at the edge of the greatest rollback of Black voting and political power in over 150 years. Not abstract. Not theoretical. Real. Black representation across the South is on the chopping block.

“What are they doing, and what is the point of paroling somebody back on a chartered flight to detain them?” #DACA was meant to protect people like José Contreras Diaz. Instead, the Trump administration is using every tool to not only dismantle the DACA program, but also make Dreamers deportable.

🚨 YOU BROUGHT THIS ON YOURSELVES, ASSHOLES. x.com/NRSC/status/... (No, to my knowledge Schumer *hasn't* coronated Platner, but that won't matter now that @democrats.org have officially done so 40 days before the primary.)

Arguing that if only we’d chosen someone better (however that’s defined) than Clinton or Harris or Mills people wouldn’t have chosen to vote for the worst person alive or a nobody with a Nazi tattoo grants too much and absolves ppl of their terrible choices

When Joe Biden said things were going to get better and inflation was going to go down the media dragged him from the back of the car. Now Republicans are lying and saying inflation "is" down and gas prices are down. The media is repeating their lies without question.

I believe in this case Susan Collins very much is the bear and Platner very much is the man. Can't be the Fuck Nazis party if you elect one to the Senate.
