.@MattWhitlock on Graham Platner's mounting pro-Nazi scandals — and why it's becoming Groundhog Day for Democrats playing cover for him: "This is going to be Groundhog Day every day for Democrats defending him, because he will go on TV and say there's nothing else coming, nothing to hide, this is all made up — and then at the end of the day we'll hear from somebody else who says he knew it was a Nazi tattoo, he glorified the Nazi troops with that tattoo. It's just one of a million things that highlights how unfit he is for office. He doesn't need a Senate seat. He needs help."

The @SFGiants have a long history of supporting our large & vibrant LGBTQ community, even when it hasn’t always been popular. It’s one of the many reasons I’m proud of the team. That storied history makes it even more troubling that the Giants are now accepting ads from Chick-fil-A — a virulently homophobic business — & disturbing that some players used last night’s Giants Pride Night as an opportunity to display a bible verse about rainbows that is frequently used by right wing Christians to “take back” the rainbow from LGBTQ people. Last night wasn’t just Pride Night. It was also the 10th anniversary of the Pulse Nightclub massacre, when 49 people were mass murdered. To be clear, these players could have cited the rainbow bible verse on any of the other 364 days of the year. Instead, they chose to cite it only on Pride Night & only in connection with the rainbow Giants logo celebrating our LGBTQ community. There’s only one explanation for that choice — a choice the Giants tolerated. It’s hard to envision the Giants tolerating this kind of behavior directed at any other community. The Giants can & must do better.

🚨TRENDING: San Francisco Giants pitcher Sam Hentges declined to wear the team’s Pride Night cap on Friday night, infuriating some members of the fanbase. “It was equal parts bigoted and embarrassing, and blame deserves to shine throughout the organization,” Giants analyst Brady Klopfer wrote, noting that several other players wore the Pride hats but wrote biblical verses next to the logo.

The media is obsessed with this race. That obsession doesn't seem to extend to healthcare or housing or any of the life-or-death issues at stake in November.

Americans are struggling to pay for groceries and gas while Elon Musk becomes a TRILLIONAIRE. When the federal government is for sale, the rich get richer and everyone else gets shafted. The system is rigged.

Musk is worth more than South Africa’s GDP. @BernieSanders and I proposed a 5% tax on people like him. In one year, it could fund: - free public college & trade school -$10/day childcare - Special-needs education nationwide Wealth inequality is the moral failure of our time.

Elon Musk just became the world’s first trillionaire. Let’s make sure he’s also the last.

Brad, a 5% tax on Elon's trillion net worth would literally pay for free college and trade school for every American. And with the market's growth, he still would be worth over a trillion dollars! You don't think that's worth it?
