So let me head over to Yeah, this is David Strom at hot air dot com writing about the rise of the guy with the Nazi tattoo, Graham Platner in Maine and with the dropping out of Janet Mills. I believe her name was the or Is, former governor of Maine. She dropped out. She was backed by the quote establishment Democrats. They were, you know, helping her fund raise, they were pushing her over Platiner, and. She dropped out yesterday. Couldn't raise money, couldn't break through in polling, couldn't beat him, So she dropped out, and the establishment immediately shifts to endorsing and you know, celebrating Graham Plattner, the guy with the Nazi tattoo, and I went over in the last hour the litany of baggage that this guy has. But he checks all the boxes for the radical base, namely take people's stuff. And we don't like the Jews, I mean Israel. I'm just critical of Israeli policy. That's yeah, yeah, that's it. The Nazi tattoo, by the way, it wasn't just a swastik or some you know, eagle emblem kind of thing. It was the tattoo of the. The unit that ran the death camps. Like, if you were to try and find of all the Nazi logos and insignias and stuff, if you're trying to pick like the one that would be the most offensive to Jewish people and non Jews, but to Jews, if you were trying to find a symbol that really distills the barbarity and evil of the regime, well he picked the right one. And he wants us to believe that it was completely by accident, by random choice. He just saw this terrible looking skull, because it's not even like it's just it's a black skull. But it's done, you know, I mean, the the either the tattoo artist wasn't very detail oriented or whatever. It's like kind of smudgie and blurry. But I think that's the original logo. It's just you know, back in the day, they didn't have the computer technology to clean these things up like we have now. But if you wanted a skull and crossbones, there are a variety of those that you could go for, or just a skull. Right, there are all sorts of skulls. I'm sure they were all on the wall too. But for some reason, when he was overseas in the military, they all got drunk and went out to get tattoos and he just randomly picked this one. And he calls himself a communist on Reddit posts. Mills was the hand picked candidate of Chuck Schumer. David Strom says Schumer will himself likely be booted from his formerly safe New York Senate seat by a socialist candidate as well. Oh, I just saw Los Angeles. The US some of the the polling and the you know, the markets, the polymarkets and all that they're the prediction is that the Democrat socialist candidate is going to win the mayor's race of Los Angeles. Oh and then there was this on a second, let me pull this up before I before I lose it. It was the oh I think I lost it, all right, I'll look for it during the break. It's the mayor of Seattle and she was at some conference and was asked about like she wants to you know, eat the rich, tax them, and you know, the question then is like, well then why are these rich people going to stick around in your city if you're going to take all of their money? And she's just like bye. So like that's a democrat socialist view, just like we hear from zoronmm Donnie right. He promises all of these free things, and then four months later this week he comes out at a press conference and says, we didn't, we don't, we don't have any money, which is like a speed run for socialism right there. So Chuck Schumer's probably going to look at a challenge from his left. That's why he, you know, did the shutdowns and stuff, trying to convey that I fight, I fight, And he thinks, as do a lot of these you know, democrat establishment types. They think that the socialists and the Islamists in their radical base, they think that if they just curse a lot and they show that they're fighting Trump like that's gonna be enough. But as I mentioned last hour, the Democratic socialists don't like democrats. Just because they took democratic and put it in their name doesn't mean that they are democrats. They don't like they're going to primary you because they want to take over your party. They want control over your apparatus, they want the power. So you are the vehicle they're gonna they're gonna gut you. They're gonna wear your skin suit. They're gonna run around for as long as they can excuse me, and claimed to be democrats, but actual Democratic socialists, and then at some point, when they have control over your party sufficiently, they will change the name of that party. I have no doubt about it, no doubt. But this Red Green alliance that is propelling guys like Platner and mom Dannie right, it always ends the same way. The left and the Islamist that's the green part of the Red Green Alliance. They band together, they take over, and then the Islamist kick out the leftists. That's how that happens. We saw the example ham Trammick, Michigan. They banned it together, they had the Red Green Alliance. They got a majority on the City council, and so now you have a majority Muslim city council and they scrapped Pride Month and the left was like, well, why'd you do this? Like, well, we were just using you to get power. That's what united them. You know, Well that's my enemy over there. Oh it's your enemy too. Let's band together. Sure, but you're not aligned except in your pursuit of power. And then once one takes over, then it's like, okay, well now we have the numbers, you can get out scram same thing happened in Iran nineteen seventy nine. Leftists is Lomists, and then once they take power, the Islamists start whacking all the Leftists because now they don't need him anymore. That's the common historical model. So as the Senate Minority Leader, Chuck Schumer should have had all the cards, or more specifically, all the money in the world to help Mills get over the finish line. Mills dropped out because she ran out of cash. Nobody cares what Chuck thinks anymore in the Democrat Party because he isn't a communist, and especially because he still mostly supports Israel, although he has been trying to downplay his lack of hatred for Jews, him being Jewish, and all being a hater and a communist are now crucial to getting support in the Democratic Party. And Platner, Grand Platner in Maine fits the bill. And the sooner that you're you know, non Marxist Democrats wake up to this fact, I think the better off your party is going to be. But I I really don't think, as I've said, that you have that you guys have this natural immunity or you don't have natural immunity inside your party. To this stuff. Oh and why is because the focus is on achieving power, right, That's the That's everything they're doing is about power. And listen to what their plans are if they win. They're they're telling us what their plans are. Grand Platner did an interview and he said, if we get U get you know, control, then we're going to stop the White House from doing anything, and we're going to start bringing everybody in under subpoenas, investigations and hearing so they can't do anything. You can win the election, but you cannot govern. That's what the message is to half of the country that votes for Republicans is that even if you win these races, you're not going to be allowed. We will not permit you to do anything that you campaigned on. You're James Carville not exactly a leftist. He's perceived as one of the more mainstream Democrats, right Clinton guy, and he says, we go in, we make Puerto Rico estate, we make d C estate. We packed the US Supreme Court like they're telling us what they intend to do to secure power for generations. That's my view on it. I'm just listening to what they're saying, and I take them at their word. You know, stories are powerful. They help us make sense of things, to understand experiences. Stories connect us to the people of our past while transcending generations. They help us pross the meaning of life. And our stories are told through images and videos.

The moochers and looters right, because the looters will just obviously, you know, steal from you, and the moochers will just beg you know, gimme, gimme, gimme. Moochers and looters. Yeah, they are the ones who think their need justifies the seizure of my means. Don't, Pete, don't you wish to remain anonymous? Hey, Pete, don't Most tattoo places offer tattoo removal. Yeah, but it was over in a foreign country, so I don't know. It's like some like former Soviet bloc nation. I think he said he got it in, so yeah, I don't know you're gonna go all the way back to that one, but yeah, I'm pretty I'm pretty sure that there are tattoo removal places. But he just put another tattoo over it. You know. He covered it up after like eighteen years so and after he got caught when people realized what it was. Debbie wants to talk about gas price. I've talked about this before. Debbie. Could someone explain how we have plenty of oil according to President Trump, but our gas prices keep going up? Yes, because it is a it is an. International commodity market that is manipulated by a cartel called OPEK. And so we can produce we do. We produce more more oil than any other country now, and so we produce it, but the market where it's traded is manipulated by OPEK. They will slow down their production so as to keep oil at a certain price. They make more money, so they slow down their production rather than allowing you know, full production to occur, and that keeps the price high. Although as I went over yesterday, you left OPEK starting today, and they want because they want to be able to produce more oil. That's a good sign New York mayors. Sounds like Trump saying that he and his donors would pay for the ballroom, says Dana. Okay, I'm not sure about that. Eddie says, that's why Marxists are atheist. If they believe in God, they would have to let they would have to let go of their anger. Direct simple strategy. Okay, I don't know what that one was. Great example of Gebel's principle. Nazi Nazi, Nazi until they go and nominate an actual Nazi. I'm on the fence with the tattoo for people in the military. That symbol has been used by military and armies around the world for centuries. That image has been used by German armies well before the Nazis. I would assume the Jolly Roger was flown well before that. It's not like he has a swastika with a with the double boat lightning bolt symbol in the center of it. So how I'm not sure if it really does show he's a Nazi or not. I don't know. You're telling me. Real American beer like COR's banquet is all that's allowed. Don't drink IPAs why okay, oh is that for the news and Bruce, you can drink whatever you want. We live and let you can choose whatever beer. I am a fan, of course, not Core's light although on a hot day working out in the yard or something, you know those light beers, it's like water. Right. But anyway, back to this piece by David Strom grand Platner. Oh sorry, this part is from CNN. Grand Platner, a marine veteran turned oyster farmer who is now a rising Democratic Senate candidate and Maine, once called himself a communist. He said, the ACAB remember that the ANTIFA slogan all cops are fatherless children. Acab said, rural white Americans quote actually are racist and stupid. Most of the posts were made about five years ago under his Reddit handle p Hustle. They were deleted ahead of his campaign launch. Platner trained transactivists as a member of Maine's Socialist Rifle Association. So I had a question about that too. So you're training up a bunch of socialists in rural Maine somewhere or whatever. Who do you think that they are training to fight? Like, when you're doing these tactics and you're teaching them these things like do you have any idea who their enemy might be? That might be a good question to ask Platner now that he is the nominee for US Senate in mind in Maine, sorry, Maine, talking about the Red Green Alliance here on this comed a Happy Comedy day again. No need to buy anybody anything, you just take from them as his tradition. On the text line, Stacey says it was Dershowitz. I guess Alan Dershowitz, the lawyer who said allowing Congress to impeach Trump would send us exactly where we are. Don't like the winner start an impeachment, And here we are. Oh and John Thune needs to go. All right. I mentioned this socialist mayor in Seattle, and here she is at Seattle University Conversations the New Progressives. This is a like i'll sit. Down Q and A in front of an audience, kind of a you know, forum, and she is asked about the exodus of wealth from Washington State. Okay, because they're like they're trying to take way more money from rich people. They're like, you know, soak the rich, soak the rich, take all their money. I think the claims that millionaires are going to leave our state are like super overblown. And if you know the ones that leave, like by so so. On the one hand, you want to take all of the millionaire's money in order to fund all of the things, but if they leave, then you're like, yeah, they should totally leave. So how does that work? Exactly right? Like I want all your money, but then if you leave with all your money, then I'm glad you left. So you want to eliminate the rich but also get all of their money. Oh, I see where this leads. Ah the Foo as she goes by on Twitter. Pull it a Bunny is another name she goes by. She's a conservative commentator, she says, after spending nearly a decade pushing the debunked lie about Trump calling neo Nazis very fine people, Democrats, the left and the media are now trying to convince us that a guy with a literal Nazi tattoo is a. Very fine person. Oh the irony. I also saw there's another conservative on here, and she says, as far as I can tell, atonement for sporting a Nazi tattoo for decades consists of the following steps. Okay, here they are number one, run for public office as a Democrat. And that's well, that's it. Actually, that's just the step. That's how you atone. If you get a Nazi tattoo, whether by mistake or on purpose, the way to atone for that is to just run for office as a Democrat, and then all is forgiven. Here is an example of this. This was a leftist podcaster guy named Adam Mockler. He is with Midas Touch, which is a left wing outfit, And here is how he rationalized it on CNN. And you're going to hear GERALDO Rivera respond to him. Okay, let's try this now. If this were a Republican candidate who had a Nazi tattoo, covered it up when he was running for something, and had said all the things that he had said about black people, about women, about rape, et cetera, do you really think there's a world in which Democrats would be like, let's just let bygones be bygones. That's the past. Today is the president. I think we're entering a new era and we'll see what the base wants. We'll see who wins when the actual election happens. But for the past decade, Democrats have been unified by our opposition to Donald Trump, and now Graham Plattner has a forward looking message. So if Donald Trump, or if another Republican had a Nazi tattoo, I don't know, Donald Trump has dinner with nazis not that far from you know. It's happening. But there's also plausible deniability regarding grand Platter's tattoo. We don't know if he knew. We don't know what he knew. But it's not just the tattoo. It's not just the tattoo. That sounds so pragmatic. If Republicans want to clutch the ruthlessly you want to win, well, listen, you're willing to overlook his Nazi. Taper Heraldo off the well, he's kind of so probably not the top rope, but he's exactly right. It's like, oh, how pragmatic, right, because the principles don't matter. They never have. It's whatever gets me into power. And if Graham platt as he said right there, Mockler said like, well, this is what the base wants and it's a new era and so it doesn't matter all of the things, like like that's how you go from punch a Nazi to nominating one. Which one's going to get me the most votes? You know, ten years ago it was puncha Nazi. Punch a Nazi. That's how we win. Curse a lot, right, fight Trump or say bleep Trump, bleep Trump at all your campaign events, right, do all of that stuff to show that, you know, I'm angry, I'm a fighter, you know. But now they realized the Red Green alliance, this could actually work for us. You know where they've. Been doing this too is over in the UK. Right, You've got now candidates that are Islamists that are palain up with the Green Party. So this is a member of the Green Party on BBC and they do this thing where they got a crowd of people there and they take questions and stuff, and a guy asks, a guy from the audience asks Rachel Millward of the Green Party a very simple question because in case you hadn't heard, there was a stabbing attack in UK and some you know, guy walked up to a couple of Jewish people and just started stabbing him. I think they both survived, but they were injured pretty seriously. Oh and also this guy who did it apparently had stabbed two cops some years ago, he's still in the country and now he's stabbing Jews. So he So they're talking about this topic of what can be done to protect the Jewish community in Britain. Okay, that panel discussion and this Green Party woman Rachel millward Is asked a very simple question. Lady from the lady from the Green Party, you just stated that you've seen racial hatred in the country. Could you please specify where that hatred is coming from? Quite sure what you mean? Do you mean from the general. Public or well, she said there's racial hatred in the country, and I'd just like to know where she thinks it's coming from. I mean, I was talking about the fact that there is a rise in racially motivated crime, that kind of thing. There's more and more hate crimes, there's more reports of people feeling uncomfortable and safe. There's said there's racial hatred. Where do you think it's coming from? Okay, what are you getting at, executive? So that is the BBC presenter trying to short circuit the question, and this is brilliant. He just keeps asking the question, Oh. Where just just think this racial hatred is coming from? What do you mean? What specific sector actually say that where I think it's coming from actually is that we live in rip off Britain and people are having a really, really tough time. They're struggling because their bills are going up, they're struggling because they can't afford their rents. That I actually think this is the reality the struggingcause food is now so expensive it's eyewatering. What that means is that what that means is that there's then a tendency to find someone to blame, and I think that there have been narratives. Zia's Party is definitely one of these narratives, like the people propagating these narratives that will point a finger at certain communities to blame them when it is not the fault those communities. So I actually think that the economic situation, which is disastrous at the moment, is a big reason why hates on the rise. So that's why we need to solve the economic problems into end rip off Britain, make sure ordinary people are having a better life day to day, not struggling so much. But we also need to really focus on community cohedion and living well together. Okay, let me. Prepare to pin treat. Where it's coming from. Exactly right. She said, there's rachel racial hatred in the country. And he asked where is the hatred coming from? And she wouldn't answer it and tried to blame some other party guy, her opposing party, probably you know, reform more conservative, you know, close the Border's party. She can she cannot name where the hatred is coming from. It's because they can't afford food. That's the reason. One quick piece of info before I move on. The guy that stabbed the two cops and then sometime later stabbed the two Jewish people in the UK. After he stabbed the cops, they gave him citizenship. Like, what are you even doing? UK? What are you even doing now? I wonder if another US Senate candidate may be asked for his opinion on whether he would work with the guy with the Nazi tattoo, Like, in other words, will Roy cut him loose? Cooper be asked to play the defender disavow game. I'm just kidding. I know he won't be, But like if he were a Republican and there were a Republican with a Nazi tattoo on their chest for twenty years, probably every single Republican would be asked about it. Will anybody ask Roy Cooper about it? Not holding my breath? Instead, No, we get what Nancy Pelosi described many years ago as the wrap up smear. Remember this, the wrap up smear. You take some opposition research or a lie about somebody, you give it to a media outlet, you let them report it. You then merchandise it. Is what she said. That's what when you take the story that appears at the publication and you say, aha, see this, look at the headline, and now you manufacture this story as quote the truth. And we have an example of it here in North Carolina a couple of days ago, an outfit called NC news Line, which is a leftist publication. This is one of these nonprofit organization type things that are funded with left wing money, like the NC Justice Center. Is uh is the founder of this thing, with money from the A. J. Fletcher Foundation, big time North Carolina left wing group that pumps millions of dollars into left wing causes. And so that's what funds this operation. And I am quite certain that this story about Michael Wattley having a leadfoot came from the Cooper campaign and they dropped it at NC news Line and then other media outlets then see this story and they do stories on it, and then you're merchandising it. And what is the story. It is that Michael Wattley got speeding tickets and then missed a court a court date, so the magistrate or judge or somebody they don't really know issued a bench warrant. He was never like arrested, He never had to go, you know, report to the jail or something like, nothing like that. He got a different court date and he went and paid the speeding fines. That's the story. But the way this is dressed up, here's your headline. Law and Order Senate nominee. Michael Wattley faced arrest for skipping court in twenty fifteen NC traffic case twenty fifteen, so this is this is a decade ago the same So December twenty fifteen he received a summons from Rutherford County for failure to appear in court. He cast himself as a champion for state troopers and police officers. Yeah, you can. You can do that. You can be a champion for state highway patrol and still get pulled over and get a speeding ticket and still support highway patrol because you acknowledge that you were speeding, right, But it's interesting that he's framing this as. Like he's a hypocrite. This is proof that he doesn't support highway patrol because he was pulled over by highway patrol apparently a lot. He had fourteen different traffic cases, but that goes back to nineteen ninety eight an expired registration citation that was disposed of a two thousand and seven citation for operating an uninspected vehicle, so his inspection lapsed, like this is part of the fourteen cases. And then of course you get one of Roy Cooper's coms guy who says Wattley has a decades long criminal record and has had orders out for his arrest, plus a dozen charges for speeding, dangerous driving. And more like a lapsed inspection. So they say Wattley has repeatedly avoided facing the law while putting families in danger. Unacceptable. That's the wrap up smear. There's your example of it. Look, I've gotten speeding tickets. Wattley apparently has not heard the nine you're fine, ten you're mind rule, which is if you're going nine miles an hour over the speed limit, usually but not always but usually an officer is not going to pull you over for that. But if you're going ten then they probably will. Nine your mine or sorry, nine you're fine, ten your mind again, not in all cases. Some officers will pull over anybody at any point whatever. But Wattley was going fourteen over, fourteen and fifteen over, so maybe he thought there was a different rhyme. I don't know. Twenty fifteen. Wattley's arrest. Was the second bench warrant issued in the Rutherford County case in which he was charged in June of twenty fifteen with speeding going sixty four and a forty five zone. That offense was charged as a misdemeanor, resulting in bench warrants on bonds of five hundred dollars and one thousand dollars when he failed to appear in court. He would not ultimately report to court until January twenty sixteen, following unsuccessful attempts to serve arrest orders in the previous September and December. Rutherford County record show he paid two hundred fifty eight dollars fine. He plated it down to a faulty spidomen, which is a that's improper equipment, and that is pretty common unless you're going like twenty thirty whatever over. The Rutherford County charges came just over two weeks after Wattley pleaded to another lesser charge in Caldwell County in a separate speeding case, he was going sixty five in a fifty. A decade later, serving as General Council for the National Republican Party, he again failed to appear in court in June and July of twenty twenty three, this time in Martin County, where he was going sixty eight in a fifty five. So again he apparently thinks that it's like fourteen fifteen over and that's okay, like No. Nine. Wattley recently posted on x a picture of his odometer that it had hit four hundred thousand miles, owing to his multiple drives through all of North Carolina's one hundred counties as a party official. Oh that seems important, doesn't it. Yes, Watley was the chairman of the North Carolina GOP and he was driving all across the state all the time, and as chair of the R and C, he was driving all these places as well, and he racked up four hundred thousand miles on his vehicle. By the way, Blue Ridge Times has an interesting story too, with pictures of Roy Cooper's team on two different occasions violating traffic laws. In case anybody is like keeping track of this, and this is an important thing that we should all know. Yeah, parking in front of a fire hydrant was one of them that's not allowed, and the other one was passing a stopped school bus. Definitely not allowed. In fact, Roy Cooper signed legislation in twenty seventeen to strengthen school bus safety, saying quote, speeding past a stopped school bus puts children's lives at risk, sometimes. With tragic results. So I guess the obvious conclusion here is that Roy Cooper's trying to kill children, right, Like, that's how this game. I think that's how this game works, right all right.
