Episode Details

Senator Bernie Sanders is doubling down on his support for Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner, despite explosive reports of Platner sending explicit texts to women while married. Platner’s wife called the coverage “gossip,” while Sanders insists the focus should be on healthcare, the economy, and real policy—not personal drama. The Democratic contender, an oyster farmer and combat veteran, is set to meet with Sanders in Washington this week, as his campaign pushes forward ahead of the June 9 primary. With his main rival, Governor Janet Mills, already out of the race, Platner is rallying Maine Democrats with high-profile events, including a rally with Rep. Ro Khanna. While political figures like Adam Schiff continue investigating, Sanders is urging voters to prioritize issues that matter—like jobs and healthcare—over the messy details of marriage.
