Indiana’s Senate has voted AGAINST the GOP gerrymander that’d have locked in a 9-0 map.

This keeps the 7-2 map in place, saving two Democratic seats heading into 2026.

The vote failed big, 19/31.

The MAJORITY of the GOP senators opposed it!

Their closing message to Indiana: change your maps to artificially benefit the President's political party or 'roads will not be paved' as punishment.

They are openly saying this.

Who would want to live in a country that works like that?

Just so we’re clear, a guy who:

🔴 Got a "loan" of $1 million from his dad

🔴 Brags about dodging taxes

🔴 Has never stood in a checkout line in his life

… thinks affordability is a “hoax.”

If he were any more out of touch, he’d be drifting in space. (Which—listening to his rants—maybe he is?)

NEW: The recent government shutdown, with families skipping meals and babies unfed, could have been a preview of what’s to come when Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill shifts billions in costs for the SNAP program to states that may not be able to afford them.
How State Tax Cuts Could Lead to a SNAP Crisis
President Donald Trump’s so-called One Big Beautiful Bill Act will shift billions in costs for SNAP and Medicaid to states. But with 26 having cut or eliminated state income taxes just since 2021, they may not have the money to continue the programs.

Look there’s nothing wrong about coming from a well-off family. But own it. Explain why you went a different way or how you took a different path because you had the luxury of doing so. But don’t go to Marden’s just to blend in.
There are and have been Democratic candidates in Maine from working class backgrounds. Troy Jackson and Mike Michaud come to mind. With them as the comparator, Platner is not one. #mepolitics www.editorialboard.com/why-graham-p...
