Platner stressed that “we are up against one of the most powerful political systems in the history of the world. It is a system of billionaires and special interests."

In the wake of the Times reporting, Platner “raised more money than on any day since Gov. Mills’ withdrawal from the race,” according to his campaign. Specifically, as of 7pm ET Friday, the oyster farmer and combat veteran had collected “over $200,000, from over 5,000 donors, with an average contribution of $40.”

Phil Proschko, who served with #Platner in the Marines and also got the symbol tattoo, said in a brief interview: “No, we did not purposely get hateful fucking shit because we’re racist people... We got matching tattoos because we were in our 20s, drunk in Croatia, and that’s it. That’s all that fucking happened.”

Fifteen books read already this year, so this becomes the next escapee from that teetering tower that is my to be read pile! (Actually, they’re safely stored in several carrier bags)

I’ve been trying to read more recently, and just hit a milestone I don’t think I’ve done in my adult life; I’ve finished a book on the same day I started it.

Bernie Sanders’ Fight Oligarchy.

It was good, short, but good. If you’re aware of Bernie Sanders you can guess the content and tone.
