In the richest country on Earth, hospitals are closing en masse. In rural Maine you’re driving an hour to the nearest birthing center. The hospital in Blue Hill where I was born is closed. It’s a disaster brought on by decades of pure greed, and nothing short of Medicare for All can turn the tide.

My name is Graham Platner and I’m running for US Senate to defeat Susan Collins and topple the oligarchy that’s destroying our country.

I’m a veteran, oysterman, and working class Mainer who’s seen this state become unlivable for working people. And that makes me deeply angry.

It’s truly depraved for Trump to welcome Vladimir Putin to the US while Putin is actively wanted by the International Criminal Court for war crimes in Ukraine.

Trump calls this a peace summit but it’s just an opportunity to hang out with one of his dictator buddies. www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-a...
