  4. I mean don't get me started on Platner fans who claimed it's strange his opponents talk so much about the SS tattoo that Platner had for a very long time and how that talk is "too much, something is going on here" and "salting the earth".

    When your candidate is basically a bunch of red flags in a trench coat, then yeah, obviously the other campaigns will talk about these red flags. That's campaigning 1.0 and not noteworthy.

    #JanetMills dropped out of the Senate race against #GrahamPlatner, despite the establishment’s longtime support for the Maine governor.

    Excerpt: "Mills’s exit less than six weeks before the June primary clears the path for populist candidate Graham Platner, now the presumed nominee, to face off against incumbent Republican Sen. Susan Collins in the November general election after the party worked to subdue Platner’s campaign. The Democratic Party’s decision to wade into the primary at all had reignited a criticism that the Democratic establishment would stop at nothing to keep progressives out of Congress.

    "The upset marks 'a massive embarrassment for #ChuckSchumer and #DSCC operatives,' a Democratic strategist told The Intercept, speaking on the condition of anonymity for fear of professional reprisal.

  19. Due to the wilful failure of elected members of government to prohibit private equity and other non-residential ownership of residential real estate, rent has gotten so grossly excessive that increasing numbers of working-class citizens (on both sides of the border) are forced to live in their vehicles while employed full time.

    Typical rent for only a bedroom where I live is now about 130% what rent was for an entire two-bedroom house a few years ago.

    I think #GrahamPlatner is right about what to do about this. @avilewis, what do you think?
