![[LIVE] Graham Platner Scandal & SAVE America Act Standoff: Character Is Negotiable | Ives & McNeily](https://images.beamly.com/fetch/https%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2F_D9zAHHgkP4%2Fmaxresdefault.jpg?w=365)
The Democratic Party's Senate nominee in Maine, Graham Platner, stands accused by multiple women, and much of his record was public before the primary. Democrat voters nominated him anyway, and party leaders waited until they could handpick a replacement to turn on him. Jenny Beth Martin says the rule is simple: character is negotiable, ideology is not.
Jenny Beth is joined by Jeanne Ives, former Illinois state representative, West Point graduate, and CEO of Breakthrough Ideas, and Robert McNeily, Director of Broadcasting and Grassroots Engagement at Tea Party Patriots Action.
Key talking points:
- Breaking on air: a prominent Illinois Democrat state representative indicted for federal fraud involving state grants and kickbacks
- Florida vs. Illinois: DeSantis and Pritzker each signed their eighth budget, and Florida's all-in budget is lower with nearly twice the people
- President Trump declares the ceasefire with Iran over after attacks on commercial tankers near the Strait of Hormuz
More than 1,200 former Justice Department employees sign a letter against Todd Blanche's nomination
- The SAVE America Act: 50 senators on record, Thom Tillis calls it dead, and dead is a choice
- Abdul El-Sayed's defund-the-police audio and the Planned Parenthood funding fight
Take action: call the Capitol switchboard at 202-224-3121 and tell both of your senators to pass the SAVE America Act. Talking points at passthesaveamericaact.com. Support the OMB rule ending DEI mandates in federal grants at tpp.me/ombcomment.
