Our friends at the New York Post uncovered another twist and turn late Thursday afternoon in Maine Democrat Graham Platner’s phony record and scandal-ridden life as another ex-girlfriend came forward to share not only did Platner cheat on his then-fiancé with her in 2021, but confirmed he was aware he had a Nazi tattoo and believed America is the “evil, bad guy overseas.”
Despite having shown mild interest in his sexting scandal and allegations leveled last week by Lyndsey Fifield and other ex-girlfriends in The New York Times, none of them mentioned it Thursday night and Friday morning during their flagship newscasts.
In contrast, the Fox News Channel’s Fox & Friends spent nearly three and a half minutes covering it in their first hour. Co-host Ainsley Earhardt declared “another shoe drops for Graham Platner” ahead of co-host Lawrence Jones noting “this is another second person that we know that it’s gone on record that talked about this tattoo, and he knows about the tattoo.”

He also reminded Earhardt and co-host Brian Kilmede that “the senators that are supporting him asked him about a week ago, was there anything else? This is something else.”
