CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY JUNE 8, 2026
IF YOU HAVE BEEN PAYING ATTENTION TO THE NEWS, YOU HAVE HEARD ABOUT GRAHAM PLATNER, A DEMOCRAT WHO IS RUNNING TO UNSEAT REPUBLICAN SENATOR SUSAN COLLINS OF MAINE.
PLATNER HAS BEEN OUTED BY SEVERAL MEDIA PLATFORMS, INCLUDING THE NEW YORK TIMES, FOR SEXTING WITH YOUNG WOMEN AND FOR VISITING A PLATFORM CALLED KIK, A POPULAR AND LARGELY ANONYMOUS MESSAGING PLATFORM THAT HAS BEEN HEAVILY CRITICIZED BY CHILD SAFETY AND ANTI-EXPLOITATION GROUPS – INCLUDING BEING LABELED A “PREDATOR’S PARADISE” BY THE NATIONAL CENTER ON SEXUAL EXPLOITATION.
DEMOCRAT LEADERS, INCLUDING SENATE MINORITY LEADER CHUCK SCHUMER, ELIZABETH WARREN AND BERNIE SANDERS REFUSE TO DENOUNCE PLATNER OR CALL ON HIM TO QUIT THE RACE. THEY ARE SO DESPERATE IN THEIR EFFORT TO TAKE BACK THE SENATE THAT THEY WILL MAKE EXCUSES FOR A MAN OF SUCH POOR CHARACTER.
ADD THIS TO PLATNER’S NAZI TATTOO AND THE FACT THAT HIS WIFE IS THE ONE WHO TOLD THE PARTY OPERATION IN MAINE ABOUT HIS SEXTING. HE CLAIMS HE’S DONE WITH IT, BUT YOU CAN BE SURE THERE IS MORE TO COME.
THERE WAS A TIME WHEN NO ONE WITH PLATNER’S BACKGROUND WOULD DARE RUN FOR OFFICE. NOT ANYMORE. I’M CAL THOMAS.
