I'm not going to get involved with the demographics of Maine. I do think people should vote for Platner if he wins the primary.

I didn't realize there was another candidate. I'll check her out.

Sure. I think she's highly qualified, it's just that at the moment I think the Democrats should be trying to look less like an old people's club. She might be a good pick for Maine, since everyone there is old anyway.

If Platner wins the primary, will you support him?

It's Abortion Provider Appreciation Day.

Thank you to all of the providers who put their safety and lives on the line to ensure we can get the care we need. You've helped me to build the life and family I have now, and there's no way to articulate the depth of my gratitude.

Our government is a pack of liars. I wonder how much $ Witkoff is going to make off this insane war.

Iran made and released this video.

Kind of thinking they’re not just going to roll over.
