Spoke to my friend Mitch McConnell this morning, the senior Senator from Kentucky. He's still recovering in the hospital. We talked for just shy of 20 minutes ... about IRAN, UKRAINE, the unfolding situation in MAINE, my visit to the TR Presidential Library, and even a little bit of Senate history

"Change the way you vote or we'll make it easier for people to kill you" is the kind of policy that should get everyone in this administration dragged out of bed in their pajamas and thrown into the back of a van, destination unknown. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/07/c...

"I spoke to" is certainly interesting phrasing.

Scott Jennings: I spoke to my old friend Mitch McConnell this morning, the senior Senator from Kentucky. He's still recovering in the hospital. We talked for just shy of 20 minutes ... about IRAN, UKRAINE, the unfolding situation in MAINE, my visit to the TR Presidential Library, and even a little bit of Senate history. I told him we want to see him back at work as soon as possible.

...and the last shoe drops. Going forward, I guess Platner could dig in and be the accused rapist with a Nazi tattoo trying to prevent the Democrats from getting control of the Senate. But that wouldn't feel very, you know, "authentic" of him.

Sen. Bernie Sanders on the Maine U.S. Senate race: “I have spoken with Graham Platner about the best path forward for Maine. In light of these very serious allegations, I have recommended that he step aside.”

In better news, John Oliver's three-day stint/stunt as a corporate villain on legendary soap opera "General Hospital" appears to be going... fucking brilliantly?? I have watched this clip on a loop for like 20 mins I really, truly need to see the full episodes NOW

I want them not to serve as publicists for speciously defined male "authenticity" in political candidates and I want them to think hard about what they choose to overlook.

Mark Harris@markharris.bsky.socialJul 6(source)

So now Platner's replacement (I'm manifesting this happening) will have to face Susan Collins dusting off the anti-Kamala "I'm running against someone who didn't get a single primary vote" argument. Great work all around. First thank-you note goes to Pod Save America.

Graham Platner minutes ago posted a video calling these allegations of sexual assault him "categorically false." He goes on to say: "we're taking the time to reflect on the best path forward" but also: "you never turned your back on me, and I will not turn my back on you now."

Some might call posting and deleting within five minutes erratic. I call it "premium bonus content."

I was 17 years old when this story ran. I am very aware that if I had been 27, there's a good chance I wouldn't be here to remind you of it. I try never to forget that as much as I chose my own path in life, I also got lucky.

It's so strange when people who don't follow me suddenly fly in my face with utterly bananas rage and contempt. I look at their Bluesky bios and it's always something like "Christian, hobbyist, cat dad."

Half Man is the weirdest limited series I've seen in years. 6 hours of two men doing utterly unhinged or monstrous things and then having long, intense, theater-y conversations about why they did them and then punching each other in the face. Very committed to its own ideas; I believed none of it.
