[Quiet Em]

New Platner video:

"So regardless of the inaccuracy of the reporting, but mindful the political reality it will inflict, we are taking the time to reflect on the best path forward"

1. I really have not kept up with all the negative threads which appears to be constant at the DU......................

I do believe in the right to defend oneself especially if he feels justified that the allegations are not true. He has time, not much tho.

5. Noted -- Politico and it's owner

hundred percent support genocide in Gaza. Platner has been vocal in opposing genocide. And the anti-Platner barrage acoss internet has been coordinated>>>
from B-sky >>>

Who's targeting Graham Platner now?
Among the puppet masters . The problem with Platner is he opposes Israel, its genocide and Aipac. Dirtbag Mathias Döpfner, CEO of Politico parent company, is just more Netanyahu scum. The anti-Platner machine is running.

This guy has more red flags than the Outer Banks. Amazing that so many people chose to willfully ignore the obvious.
