Putting aside the concerted campaign to unseat Donald Trump, a duly elected U.S. president, the Democratic campaign to smear Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh has been the low bar in 21st century American politics.
Democratic lawmakers harrumphed with moral outrage over the foggy accusations leveled by Christine Blasey Ford about incidents that took place almost 40 years prior, when they were in high school — uncorroborated accusations that she came forward with AFTER Kavanaugh had been nominated for the high court.
Fast forward to today, and the same players seen on national TV ripping into Kavanaugh over a claim that allegedly took place during a party in the early 1980s seem to have adopted a new standard when considering the sick puppy in Maine, Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner — you know, the guy with the Nazi tattoo on his chest.
The New York Times detailed what was described as “unsettling behavior” from Platner toward the women in his life, including heavy drinking, assaults, infidelity, and a troubling remark he allegedly made about raping anyone who ever broke into his home to assert dominance, but “not in a gay way.”
But none of this was enough to concern Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI), who opted to attack Platner’s ex-girlfriend, who called Platner “the most toxic, literally abusive man on earth” — so much for the left’s “Believe Women” mantra that followed the Kavanaugh ambush.
Dem Sen. Whitehouse says he’s “not impressed” by the allegations against Graham Platner in the latest NYT report.
“Seems like a lot of nothing. I mean, the only one who had anything to say that seemed ‘unsettling’ was a woman who works for right-wing political operations.”

Yet, Whitehouse was obsessed with fart jokes Kavanaugh made as a 16-year-old:

Leading the charge in the attempted character assassination of Justice Kavanaugh was Sen. Elizabeth Warren, who brought great passion to the charade, as seen here:

Yet, Warren endorsed the man who boasted that he still has to “jerk off” anytime he’s in a portable john.
Graham Platner boasted “I still have to jerk off every time I sit in a portas—-er… that blue water smell conditioned me.”

Even AOC, who helped fashion victimhood in America, was hesitant to criticize Platner.
U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) was asked about the Time article and she refused to offer an opinion, saying she would have to study the issue more.

The double standard at play is appalling — here’s a quick sampling of responses to the story, as seen on X:

Democrats have screamed that Trump is a misogynist and a Nazi… with zero proof and now they have a confirmed misogynist with a Nazi tattoo who preaches Marxist ideology and they want him in a senate seat?
What tf is wrong with the democrat party?— John (@mindbender65) June 5, 2026
AOC suddenly develops a bad case of laryngitis when reporters ask about the Democratic Senate candidate facing multiple abuse allegations and a Nazi SS Totenkopf tattoo.
Funny how the volume drops when it’s one of their own.
Follow for more.
MAGA.

Wow.@SenWhitehouse led the fake rape charges against Kavanaugh.
Now he’s defending a guy who literally threatened to rape women—and doesn’t deny it.
Whitehouse couldn’t stand Kavanaugh’s treatment of women (with no evidence), but says this is nothing.https://t.co/TyvTdsLjTu
