"Well it's understandable that the left is mad at Jeffries for making a perfectly normal endorsement at a perfectly normal time, because they wanted to be special little guys, & instead they got treated normally." No? It isn't?

Just over an hour after 3 Supreme Court justices warned that Alabamian Anthony Boyd would suffer psychological torture, he was subjected to the longest nitrogen gas execution in US history, gasping for air more than 225 times. Read my eyewitness account: www.treadbylee.com/p/after-just...
After justices warned of prolonged suffocation, Alabama subjected Anthony Boyd to the longest nitrogen execution in U.S. history.
Boyd was the chairman of Project Hope, a death row-led nonprofit. Its members are left reeling in the wake of their leader's suffocation execution.

Just to be clear, #SCOTUS has done nothing to indicate any interest in this case besides calling for a response—something that a *single* justice can request, and that is *not* remotely predictive of a cert. grant.

also, how does Platner claim that he had no idea what a Totenkopf was or that his tattoo was one until a week ago when this Reddit conversation he was part of 6 years ago was all about a soldier with a Totenkopf where people discuss the difference between an SS Totenkopf vs. a Punisher skull etc.
From Graham Platner's first town hall since the tattoo story broke:

I think it’s a little odd to be more open — whether as pure “resistance” or as a means of fighting “oligarchy” — to candidates with Nazi tattoos than to candidates like Jared Golden who take moderate stances on public policy issues.
