SAD TROMBONE: Democrats Blew a Cool $16 Million on Graham Platner’s Failed Senate Campaign

For the Democrats, when it comes to Graham Platner, the hits just keep on coming.

Not only is Graham Platner now being forced out of the Maine senate race, Democrats wasted a stunning $16 million on his train wreck of a campaign.

Their party is already struggling with fundraising, so this is a double-whammy for them. They were so excited by the idea of winning this race that they never paused to actually vet the guy. Now they’re paying for it in more ways than one.

Breitbart News reports:

Democrat Party Vaporized $16 Million Pushing Failed ‘Nazi Tattoo’ Candidate Graham Platner in Maine

The Democrat Party used up a mountain of cash in support of Maine’s Graham Platner, who suspended his campaign for the U.S. Senate on Wednesday in light of sexual assault allegations.

Platner was accused of breaking into Jenny Racicot’s home and sexually assaulting her in 2021 when the pair were in an “on-and-off relationship,” Breitbart News reported Monday, noting other women have accused him of targeting them.

Now, the Democrat Party and other organizations are no longer backing him, WGME reported Tuesday.

“According to the latest data from the Federal Election Commission, as of May 20, Platner has raised more than $16 million since last July. He managed to spend more than $14 million of that, leaving just over $2 million in the bank,” the outlet said.

“Under guidelines by the FEC, a candidate who drops out does have control over leftover funds,” the report continued, adding, “The candidate can return the money to donors, transfer up to $2,000 per election to other federal, state, local or foreign candidates, or donate to charitable organizations.”

And of course, most of it came from out of state.

Police Share New Information on Suspected Murder of Reform’s Ann Widdecombe.

WHAT HAPPENED: Devon and Cornwall Police have confirmed that a 26-year-old White British male is in custody following the suspected murder of Ann Widdecombe, a prominent Reform UK figure and former Conservative lawmaker and government minister. She was found dead at her residence with “serious injuries,” according to Assistant Chief Constable Matthew Longman. “Detectives from the force Major Crime Investigation team have launched a murder investigation and are conducting extensive inquiries into the circumstances surrounding Miss Widdecombe’s death.. The incident is not being treated as terrorism,” he said, while adding that the force is keeping an open mind about a possible motive.

 DETAIL: The suspected murder occurred on July 9, 2026, with officers called to Widdecombe’s home around 11:40 AM. Widdecombe, aged 78, was found with serious injuries and pronounced dead. Longman told the press that there is currently no evidence of a political motive, with the caveat that this could change as the investigation develops.

 KEY QUOTE: “Our murder inquiry is in its early stages, but moving at significant pace, and we’re deploying all the necessary resources to find out exactly what has happened.” – Assistant Chief Constable Matthew Longman

 IMPACT: The death of Ann Widdecombe has shocked the political community and the public, with significant police activity ongoing in the area. Widdecombe was a well-known and well-liked figure, serving as a Member of the European Parliament (MEP) for the Brexit Party before it became Reform UK, after which she continued to support it as a spokeswoman on immigration and justice. She also won fans among the general public for appearances on television shows such as Strictly Come Dancing and Celebrity Big Brother. However, the Socialist Worker and a number of left-wing activists online celebrated her death, deriding her as a “bigot” for her Christian beliefs.

TERRIFYING: Far-Left Democratic Socialists Unveil Radical Plan to Abolish the Senate, Replace the President and Supreme Court, Grant Mass Amnesty, and Overthrow the U.S. Constitution

The radical left just showed its hand again, and it is even more extreme than most Americans could have imagined.

The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), the far-left organization that has heavily influenced the Democrat Party, has rolled out its updated “Workers Deserve More!” platform.

This document is nothing less than a blueprint to dismantle the American constitutional republic and replace it with a socialist super-state run by an all-powerful Congress.

As The Gateway Pundit reported on June 20, 2026, the DSA’s official platform calls to:

  • Eliminate the U.S. Senate.
  • Replace the President with an executive chosen by Congress.
  • Replace the Supreme Court with a judiciary subordinate to Congress.
  • Grant universal amnesty to all illegal aliens.
  • Defund the Department of Defense (which the platform refers to as the “Department of War”).
  • Close overseas U.S. military bases.
  • End American economic sanctions against foreign adversaries.
  • Abolish what it calls the “carceral forces of the capitalist state,” including sweeping police and prison reforms.

If implemented, these proposals would fundamentally transform the American system of government by eliminating the constitutional separation of powers established by the Founding Fathers.

Court rules Ontario violated Charter by censoring Covid criticism on billboard

The Ontario government tried to silence a citizen for criticizing its Covid-19 response. Now a court has ruled it broke the Constitution.

The Ontario Divisional Court has found the Ontario Ministry of Transportation violated the Charter rights of George Katerberg by preventing him from displaying a political billboard criticizing public officials over their handling of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Katerberg was represented by the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms (JCCF), whose constitutional lawyer Chris Fleury successfully argued that the Ministry’s actions violated section 2(b) of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, which protects freedom of expression.

Katerberg’s billboard, erected along Highway 17 near Thessalon, featured photographs of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, Premier Doug Ford, former Chief Public Health Officer Dr. Theresa Tam and other officials above the messages, “They knowingly lied about safety and stopping transmission” and “Canadians demand accountability.”

The Ministry first demanded the sign be removed after claiming one image on the billboard was linked to white supremacy. Katerberg immediately removed the disputed image, explaining it was inspired by Pink Floyd’s The Wall, and submitted a revised version. The Ministry then shifted its reasoning, claiming the billboard promoted hatred.

When that justification failed, the government changed the rules instead.

After Katerberg launched his Charter challenge, the Ministry amended its Highway Corridor Management Manual in 2025 to broadly prohibit political messaging on billboards along certain northern Ontario highways. It then relied on that newly created policy to reject the sign once again.

The Divisional Court wasn’t persuaded.

Justice Schreck found there was “no rational connection” between prohibiting political speech while allowing commercial advertising on the very same highways. The Court declared the Ministry’s policy unconstitutional, quashed its decision, and ordered the application to be reconsidered.

The Court also criticized the Ministry’s “shifting justifications” throughout the dispute, making clear the case was never about whether Katerberg’s views on Covid-19 were right or wrong. It was about whether the government could censor political speech because it disliked the message.

Following the ruling, JCCF lawyer Chris Fleury called the decision “a welcome affirmation of the importance of political expression,” saying governments cannot ban political speech while allowing businesses to advertise beside the same roads.

California Is Actively Recruiting Noncitizen Teenagers to Serve as Poll Workers in Elections

California has once again ignited concerns over election integrity after revelations that the state is recruiting noncitizen teenagers to work inside polling places during elections.

Natalie Winters first reported this outrageous development out of the Golden State.

Green card holders as young as 16, noncitizens who cannot legally vote in American elections, are being recruited to check voters off official rosters, distribute ballots, handle election equipment, assist voters, and help close polling locations.

The state admits it does not fully track how many of these noncitizen teenagers are being used in these sensitive positions of trust.

This is not a hypothetical. This is happening right now in Democrat-run California.

Natalie Winters reported:

Documents reviewed by this publication reveal that California officials are directing public schools to identify teenagers as young as 16 to work inside polling locations during the November 2026 election, including lawful permanent residents who are not United States citizens.

These students are not being enlisted to hand out stickers or direct voters toward the entrance. County election agencies say they may issue ballots, check voters off official rosters, help operate election equipment, assist voters throughout the day, prepare ballots for pickup, and participate in closing polling locations.

In other words, California has made citizenship optional for the people performing frontline election duties.

The recruitment campaign appears in a June 30 letter signed by California Secretary of State Shirley Weber and State Superintendent Tony Thurmond and distributed to county superintendents, charter school administrators, and high school principals across the state.

The officials ask schools to provide their campuses as voting locations and encourage students to become poll workers for the November 3 general election.

“High school students who are at least 16 years of age, are U.S. citizens or legal permanent residents, and maintain a 2.5 grade point average are eligible to serve as poll workers,” the letter states.

Crazed Democrat Al Green Defends Illegal Alien who Tried to Ram ICE Agents, Says Americans Have an “Obligation” to Give Illegals Protection Under the Constitution

Civil rights groups and Democratic officials held a press conference on Friday on behalf of an illegal alien who was killed while attacking ICE agents, and Rep. Al Green (D-TX) claimed Americans have a “duty” to ensure illegals are protected by the Constitution. 

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, an illegal alien from Mexico who tried to run over ICE agents during a traffic stop, was fatally shot after ramming an ICE vehicle.

After attempting to flee, refusing to follow multiple verbal commands, and attempting to run over an ICE agent, Araujo was shot and taken to a hospital, where he later died. Of course, the Democrats and leftist media are now losing their minds trying to defend an illegal alien who attacked ICE.

Lunatic Al Green went out claiming that the illegal alien “belongs to the Constitution” and “should not receive any less attention from the Constitution that I or any of you would receive.”

“Mr. Arajo belongs to us. He belongs to the Constitution of the United States of America,” Green said during brief remarks at the press conference.

“That Constitution applies to him, just as it applies to me. He should not receive any less attention from the Constitution that I or any of you would receive. He belongs to us. He’s in our jurisdiction.”

REPORT: 3 California School Districts Suspected of Shielding Teachers From Sexual Abuse Allegations as Feds Launch Nationwide Probe

Two California school districts, suspected of protecting sexual predators and allowing them to teach, received letters from the Trump Department of Education on Friday in a national crackdown on schools sweeping sexual abuse allegations under the rug. 

The letters were sent to the Tulare City Unified School District and Wilsona School District.

The New York Post reports that Education Secretary Linda McMahon sent letters to school districts across the country, reminding them that federal law requires them to investigate allegations and prevent teachers accused of abuse from quietly moving to another school.

The Los Angeles Unified School District was already under scrutiny for reassigning teachers to different schools under an agreement with the teachers’ union.

This comes as the Education Department plans to launch a new initiative with 20 civil rights investigations into school districts that failed in their duty to address sexual misconduct by school employees, according to the Post.

California is believed to be one of the biggest offenders, with at least three school districts at risk of losing $50 million in federal funding.

Per the New York Post:

Tulare City Unified School District and Wilsona School District, located in Palmdale, were two of the districts warned under federal law to promptly investigate allegations of sexual abuse and harassment and block suspected predators from quietly moving to other schools — a practice known as “passing the trash.”

“Our schools must protect America’s children. Parents should never have to wonder whether their kids’ school employs and protects sexual predators,” Secretary of Education Linda McMahon said.

“Schools that receive federal funding have a duty to protect students, report sexual misconduct honestly, and follow the law.”

Los Angeles Unified School District has already been investigated over rules that allegedly shielded predatory teachers. An agreement between the school district and the teachers’ union guaranteed teachers accused of certain serious misconduct are reassigned — rather than immediately terminated or removed from student-facing positions — while investigations are pending.

Investigations are also targeting three school districts in Georgia and three in Michigan, as well as districts across 12 other states.

UKRAINE FARCE: Lviv Draft Clash Prompts Criminal Probes And Military Self-Review As ‘Bounty Hunters’ Encite Rage Among Ukrainians

After morbid videos of press-ganging of men across Ukraine have surfaced for years, as thousands die weekly at the front, the Ukrainian government is now pretending to notice as it tries to appease an angry populace.

It has been obvious for some time that ‘helping Ukraine’ is not the agenda, but rather depopulating the country for the EU globalist reich. The Ukrainian population is beginning to realize this reality. Evidence of this agenda is well-documented.

While Ukraine Empties Out Due To Mass Ethnocide, Globalist NGOs Are Filling It Back Up — With Someone Else

A crowd of approximately 200 civilians surrounded and overturned a Ukrainian Territorial Recruitment Center (TRC) vehicle in Lviv’s Sykhiv district on the evening of July 8, triggering two criminal investigations and an unusual internal review by the military into the conduct of its own recruitment officers.

Reports one of the bounty hunters pointed at a man and yelled, “Get that one, he’s worth $2,000!” This is reportedly what set off the crowd.

The EU just gave Ukraine EUR 90B and it seems some of these funds are paying for bounty hunters to seize men off the streets across Ukriane; the price used to be $200 per head.

Ukraine’s prosecution service announced on July 9 that it had opened proceedings against participants in the clash, charging them with obstructing the activities of the Armed Forces during martial law and with violence against a law enforcement officer. Prosecutors said a responding police officer was attacked by members of the crowd.

According to authorities, TRC officers had detained a man born in 1996 who was wanted for violating military registration requirements. Video footage circulating on social media showed protesters chanting “shame,” tearing off the vehicle’s front bumper, and eventually flipping the vehicle.

WE FINALLY HAVE THE EVIDENCE! After Examining Over 155,000 Absentee Envelopes…We’ve Discovered Over 26,000 Absentee Ballots Were Unlawfully Counted In Detroit’s 2020 Election

This is the most important investigative piece I have ever worked on in my 15 years of reporting.

Before I report our findings, I want to thank Yehuda Miller of New Jersey for never giving up on the belief that Detroit’s election was stolen in November 2020.

I also want to thank the brilliant (an understatement) Phani Mantravadi for his tireless contribution to this project. In addition to his patience and guidance on all the technical aspects, he also uploaded and sorted almost a million documents on his Check My Vote website, so that over 100 well-trained volunteers could painstakingly enter the data from each and every envelope into a data field that would create a permanent record of each envelope and tie it to a registered voter. The actual envelope image would then be placed side by side with the voter’s registration and vote history from Detroit’s November and December 2020 Qualified Voter Files.

To be clear: Phani, Yehuda, and I are not working alone on this historic project.

In only 9 months, we’ve created a powerhouse investigative team of all volunteers who are the most dedicated and committed individuals I have ever known. These smart, ambitious, and hard-working Americans from across the country have given up family time, vacations, special events, and stolen personal time from their lives to make this monumental task bear fruit we could only have dreamed of.

It All Started With a Text Message From Yehuda Miller

In September 2025, I received a text from Yehuda Miller telling me that he was in Detroit and asked if we could meet. Little did I know that when I met him, Yehuda Miller would be driving a rented U-Haul truck filled with almost 1 million copies of the absentee ballot applications, absentee envelopes, absentee and in-person ballots, poll books, precinct tapes, and more from Detroit’s 2020 election. Not only did Yehuda possess hard copies of the documents, but he also had electronic files of the scanned documents. Yehuda’s only goal was to ensure that everything he had worked so hard to get would be made public. We couldn’t agree more, which is why we will always report our findings to you, the public, before turning them over to the proper authorities, where investigations often take years to complete and are conducted in total secrecy.

Report: Indian Businessman Poses as CIA Agent to Land Billion-Dollar ‘Defense’ Deal with Indonesia

An Indian businessman named Gaurav Srivastava allegedly passed himself off as an operative of the American Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) to close a multi-billion dollar defense deal with the Indonesian government, according to civil suits filed in the United States by his former business partner.

A report from a U.S.-based non-governmental organization (NGO) called the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP) quoted the lawsuits filed in New York and California by Srivastava’s former business partner, Niels Troost.

According to the lawsuits, Srivastava somehow persuaded then-Indonesian Defense Minister Prabowo Subianto, currently the president of the country, that he was a CIA agent when the two attended high-level military procurement meetings in Washington and Jakarta in 2020.

By the end of that year, the faux CIA agent had alleged secured three “letters of intention to purchase” jet fighters and other defense items from the Indonesian government. He scored two more defense procurement commitments in 2021 and 2022. Products mentioned in the deals included big-ticket items like F-15 jet fighters, UH-60 Black Hawk helicopters, and C-130 transport aircraft.

Troost said Srivastava grew quite close to Subianto, becoming a frequent guest at his home and developing ties with his brother, a prominent Indonesian businessman. Subianto went on to become the president of Indonesia in October 2024.

The Indonesian Defense Ministry told Tempo, the OCCRP’s Indonesian partner, that all of the agreements secured by Srivastava were “preliminary,” none were binding contracts, and none led to a purchase by the Indonesian government.

“The entire process of Indonesian defense cooperation and procurement is always carried out with utmost caution, prioritizing the principles of good governance, national interest, and compliance with applicable mechanisms and regulations,” a defense ministry spokesperson insisted.

However, OCCRP noted that Subianto was photographed with Srivastava at signing ceremonies, Srivastava held press conferences to announce purchase agreements, and the U.S. government even issued formal approval for the sale of 36 F-15s in 2022 – the exact number of fighter jets mentioned in the agreements with Srivastava.

According to Troost, the reason he brought all of this up in a pair of U.S. lawsuits is that he was convinced Srivastava was a CIA agent. On that basis, he gave Srivastava a 50 percent share of his own company, believing the CIA man could help him win lucrative contracts with customers like Indonesia.

Srivastava allegedly proceeded to loot $51 million from Troost’s company and “loan” it to the Arsari Group, a company headed by Subianto’s brother. Srivastava then convinced the Arsari Group to give the loan money to him. He was able to wheedle the Indonesian company into giving him half, and proceeded to blow the money on a $25 million mansion in Los Angeles.

Srivastara allegedly presented himself as a mogul who controlled four firms of his own, but all four turned out to be shell companies that were eventually deregistered for not paying their taxes. None of those companies were named in the U.S. government approval for the F-15 sales to Indonesia. Boeing, which was involved in the process, gave up trying to sell F-15s to Indonesia four years later because Jakarta never finalized the deal. Subianto’s government is now shopping for Turkish-built KAAN jet fighters.

Indonesian authorities say they are investigating these transactions for possible corruption charges. Meanwhile, Troost went after Srivastava in New York and California on racketeering charges. In one of these filings, Troost referred to Srivastava as a “brazen con man of remarkable skill.”

Niels Troost is himself an interesting character, a Dutch commodities trader based out of Switzerland who was sanctioned by the European Union, and several individual European governments, for allegedly buying banned Russian oil after the invasion of Ukraine in 2022.

The EU and Switzerland lifted their sanctions against Troost this year. Troost has claimed the sanctions were partly a result of his massive international business feud with Srivastava and has said he would not buy Russian oil because he supports Ukraine.

Srivastava, in turn, denies all wrongdoing and claims Troost’s allegations against him are part of an “aggressive scorched-earth disinformation campaign.”
