00:00You didn't really think we were done with Graham Plattner scandals, did you? Well,
00:03the Post was able to track down a woman who has been anonymously posting online
00:08about her dating time with Plattner while he was engaged to another woman.
00:13Not only did we speak to her, but we were able to corroborate a lot of her claims.
00:16The Post's politics reporter, Ryan King, has been leading the charge on this story since the very
00:20beginning, and he filled me in on the unsurprising but still troubling details.
00:24A second former girlfriend of Graham Plattner has come forward publicly and claimed that he had
00:31knowledge of the skull and crossbones tattoo on his chest. He had knowledge that that resembled
00:39a totem cough, which was a symbol used by the Nazi SS. And she claimed that he said he initially
00:48wasn't aware of its Nazi ties, but became aware of it and decided to keep it because
00:54he felt that it was a symbol of America's faults. And he wanted to carry that symbol as a reminder
01:05of his service in the military. And she said that she had been taken aback when she first
01:11heard about or first discovered this tattoo on him. Now, she's come forward with several text
01:18messages that she sent to people before it was publicly known that Plattner had this tattoo.
01:23She's the second woman after Lindsey Fifield to come forward with messages before it was publicly
01:32known last fall that he had this tattoo on him. This second woman who came forward, we're not naming
01:38her. She had an anonymous account on social media. She identifies as pretty to left politically,
01:47unlike Fifield, who was a Republican operative. So that had been one of the knocks on Fifield. And the
01:53second woman is very progressive by her own description. She said that she briefly dated
02:02Plattner in 2021. And they ultimately cut things off after she said that she found out that she was
02:10engaged around that time to another woman. That engagement ultimately fell through. That is
02:16significant as well because we know that Plattner had faced a big scandal late last month over the
02:23fact that he was allegedly texting sexual images to other women while married with his current wife,
02:30whom he officially tied the knot with in 2023. So this is just the latest development,
02:37the latest corroboration of a few different scandals against Graham Plattner, who easily won the
02:44Democratic nomination for the Democratic nomination for Maine Senate race earlier this week. He had
02:49massive turnout in the Maine Democratic Senate primary. And right now he's polling very competitively
02:57against Susan Collins. And this is one of the most competitive Senate races of 2026.
