Liz Warren Endorses Scandal-Plagued Graham Platner in Maine Senate Race

Liz Warren Endorses Scandal-Plagued Graham Platner in Maine Senate Race

I mean, endorsing a guy with a Nazi tattoo to “take the fight” to the man your party keeps comparing to Hitler? Make it make sense.

Because Democrats want a “fighter” who they believe will take on President Donald Trump, many are bucking the conventional wisdom of backing the supposedly “safe” candidates in the 2026 congressional primaries. Instead, several, for instance, are supporting newcomer and current primary frontrunner Graham Platner over Schumer-backed Maine Gov. Janet Mills in the Maine Senate race.

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) was the first major Democrat in the Senate to endorse Platner, and three others have followed: Sens. Ruben Gallego (AZ), Martin Heinrich (NM), and now Elizabeth Warren (MA).

Here’s the statement she issued Thursday:

Graham Platner is going to flip Maine and then actually deliver change for working people in the Senate. He’s a combat veteran, an oyster farmer, and has inspired people with his populist agenda for a government on the side of working families––not the billionaires and giant corporations. Graham will fight every single day to make life better for the people of Maine in the United States Senate. I’m proud to endorse him.

In her video announcement, Warren suggested Platner was “the real deal” and claimed he had “the fighting spirit that the Democratic Party needs now more than ever”:

“Graham Platner is the real deal. He’s a fighter, and he’s ready to take that fight to Washington,” the progressive from Massachusetts said in her endorsement video. “Graham Platner has the grit to go against the grain and to fight for what is right. And the people in Maine are fired up and excited for change. You know what? That’s the energy, that’s the fighting spirit that the Democratic Party needs now more than ever.”

Watch:

Platner is a scandal-plagued candidate who faced backlash in October over a series of Reddit posts dating back to as early as 2013 in which he urged the use of violence to resolve political disagreements, made disparaging remarks about black people and the police, and came off as a rape apologist.

More infamously, however, was the Nazi tattoo scandal, where it was revealed that he had the Hitlerian “Totenkopf” emblem tattooed on his chest some 20 years ago. Platner claimed he got it when he was drunk and on shore leave in Croatia with fellow Marine buddies, and didn’t know what it meant.

But one senior campaign official who quit over it and the Reddit posts said otherwise:

Interestingly, Warren tried to use a Christian tattoo Pete Hegseth had to derail his Secretary of Defense nomination, calling it a symbol of “right-wing extremism.”

Despite religious scholars later countering that the Deus Vult is often considered a common Christian symbol, Warren contended that the fact that his superiors [in the Biden administration] were concerned about the tattoo raises questions about whether he could be the Pentagon chief.

“You were also removed from President Biden’s inauguration because of concerns that you were an insider threat after reports that your ‘Deus Vult’ tattoo ‘was a Christian expression associated with right-wing extremism,’” she wrote to Hegseth.

“We cannot have a Defense Secretary whose fellow servicemembers feel concerned enough about to report as a potential insider threat.”

There is also this:

Interestingly, the same week Warren decided to endorse Platner – and claimed she believed his apology for the tattoo was genuine, he appeared to walk back his previous apology about his now-altered Nazi tattoo:

But in an interview this week with news blog Zeteo, Platner pushed back, defending the tattoo as merely a ‘skull-and-crossbones’ and ‘an eminently reasonable thing’.

During the interview he also recommended the war movie Come and See, which prominently and repeatedly shows the similar ‘Totenkopf’ on Nazi uniforms.

‘Everybody should watch Come and See,’ he said.

The fact that the 1985 film is one of his favorites may undermine his claims that he didn’t know the association of the symbol with Nazis.

Reactions on X to Warren’s endorsement were pretty brutal:

There was also this observation:

Yeah. I mean, endorsing a guy with a Nazi tattoo to take the fight to the man your party keeps comparing to Hitler? Make it make sense.

Dimocrats don’t have double standards. They just have twice as many as the sane.
.

The bigger the immorality and the scandal, the greater the support the Democrats will offer their tainted candidates. Nazi tattoos are OK as long as they’re on a Democrat is the easy way to say it.

Is it me, or does Big Chief Warren look like she suffers from chronic constipation in all photos?

Meh. Virginia just elected a AG who openly talked about murdering the children of a political opponent. We have had serial rapists like Biden* and Clinton end up in public office with the enthusiastic support of millions. Obama did everything he could to start a race war and still got elected President twice. NYC just elected an Islamist jihadist as mayor. The Communist Party is openly embracing Jew hate.

Against that lineup up of genocidal maniacs Platner hardly stands out.

Liz application for tribal membership still not yet approved?

Claims to be related to Sequoyah, but resembles Eva Braun.

Unfortunately, the handwringing over a fake Indian endorsing a fake Nazi misses the forest for the trees.

You’d never have heard of Elizabeth Warren if not for the 🦇 💩 crazy leftists in Massachusetts.

And if you think Massachusetts is bad (and it is), they can’t hold a candle to the frothing-at-the-mouth socialists in southern Maine. You truly have to experience it to believe it.

The bottom line here is that your complaint isn’t so much with these two fruitcakes. Your complaint is with those who vote for them full in the knowledge of their odious positions and boldface lies.

    But none of that matters if your TDS is strong enough.
    For many, that’s ALL that matters.

    Yep the party of the KKK endorsing and supporting a candidate with a nazi Totenkopf tattoo is not surprising. The d/prog don’t stray from their racist roots, they remain fixated on race as if it is the most important thing in the world.

I despise this woman.

    Many in Massachusetts despise this phony Harvard loon, but a majority of the dim electorate votes for anyone or anything with a “D” after its name.

      ztakddot in reply to MAJack. | March 21, 2026 at 2:21 pm

      Not enough of us despise her. Not sure what the others are thinking. Oh wait…

        Spike3 in reply to ztakddot. | March 22, 2026 at 12:14 am

        We hate her, be assured, for her treason and betrayal of her Constitutional oath. Not for personal situational, “love your enemies” jurisdiction.

        But all the “end justifies the means” psychos are leftists, unbridled by conservative or Christian morals.

        Those who realize Warren stinks know vengeance is God’s.

        The fake squaw will find her justice. Like Hilldog Clinton, she has no soul to sell Satan.

Hitler died 81 years ago. I have been lectured that it is myopic, moronic and asinine to be bitter so long. It’s time to forgive Hitler and the Nazis, and move on.

    ztakddot in reply to E Howard Hunt. | March 21, 2026 at 12:43 pm

    Forgive? No! Just no!

    henrybowman in reply to E Howard Hunt. | March 21, 2026 at 12:58 pm

    So exactly who’s been giving you that lecture?
    Certainly not BLM?

    CommoChief in reply to E Howard Hunt. | March 21, 2026 at 1:43 pm

    Nah you can still be mad at Hitler, the Nazis and the SS just like like you can still be mad at WWII Imperial Japan. What you shouldn’t do is project the sins of 80 years ago onto modern Japan or modern Germany to hold people 3, 4 and 5 generations removed responsible for the sins of their grandparents, great grandparents and great, great grandparents. Take the W, hold the war crimes trials, finish up the occupation and get on with it.

    Your lecturers obviously never lived under those happy regimes.

The Democrats have dropped the mask sometime ago, they are anti-Semitic marxists.

“Graham Platner is going to flip Maine and then actually deliver change for working people in the Senate.”

Tyranny is a change, I guess.
Frogs on a log begging the gods for King Stork.

The left doesn’t care what it is as long as it votes reliable left.

Fake squaw, Fauxcahontas/Spreading Bull, endorses real National Socialist.

“Taking on Wall Street and the billionaires?” The vile, stupid and evil Dhimmi-crat communists simply cannot let go of their Stalinist/Leninist/Marxist/Maoist addiction to communist ideology, class warfare and attacks on the entrepreneurs, investors and owners. Without the latter groups, the U.S. would be a much poorer and more unhappy place.

The wretched Dhimmi-crat apparatchiks, 99.9% of whom have never worked in the private sector at any substantive job, managed a business or owned a business, are too stupid to understand this reality,.

    In her case it’s a Millionaire hating the Billionaires except for those contributing to her,

      CommoChief in reply to ztakddot. | March 21, 2026 at 3:42 pm

      Yep though $1 Million while still a lot ain’t what it used to be. In 1990 the average individual income was $21,000. A $1Million investment into a 30 year Treasury Bond was paying 8.25% so kicking off $82,500 per year, more than 4x the average income. Today the average income is $62,000. To generate the same 4x ave income return from a 30 year Treasury Bond you’d need $5 Million @ the 4.96% current rate to get the same relative income $248,000 = 4x $62K average income.

        Her net worth is 12 million estimated, I wish mine was 12 million and that I had PAC and campaign slush funds to pay for my travelling, meals, and incidental expenses.

          CommoChief in reply to ztakddot. | March 21, 2026 at 7:59 pm

          ….and smart looking clothing and a vehicle and security and…whole lot of other things.

          Just saw a blurb that AOC spent 19K of campaign funds on ‘ campaign consulting’ with Psychiatrist who pushes ketamine therapy.

          Campaign expenditures are full of all.sorts of shenanigans.

Yoi know that America has no integrity left when those who perpetually call for integrity in public life do nothing about Lizzie Big-Chief-Pimple-on-her-Tongue Fauxahontas Warren.
