Former first son Hunter Biden on Friday defended Graham Platner, the embattled progressive candidate running for U.S. Senate in Maine, urging voters to give him a break during an appearance on Gov. Gavin Newsom’s (D-CA) podcast. Platner, a Marine veteran and oyster farmer, has faced mounting scrutiny over his past conduct, particularly allegations involving his […]
Spencer Pratt says he has damaging evidence against one of the Los Angeles mayoral candidates after he was boxed out of the primary election.Pratt initially came in second place when the first ballot count was announced on election night, but his lead was whittled away by successive ballot counts until socialist city councilwoman Nithya Raman overtook him.'The city is a mess, and you're about to reward the arsonist who torched the place with four more years of destruction.'Rather than abandon his effort to save Los Angeles, Pratt released a fiery and defiant video Friday claiming to have damaging audio secretly recorded by a candidate's staffer."You think you could get rid of me that easily?" Pratt says in the video. "I didn't get in this for political power; I got in this to expose this corrupt machine, and nothing's changed," he added.He referred to Raman and incumbent Mayor Karen Bass as "morons" and "dumb and dumber," a reference to the popular movie. Pratt also claimed that many Los Angeles business owners and entrepreneurs told him they were leaving the city because of the inept government."That means the city has to cut services. More potholes, less firefighters, less police patrols, more criminals, more drug addicts terrorizing your communities," Pratt continued."You have no idea how bad things are about to get for this city. Look at this place already," he added. "This city is a mess, and you're about to reward the arsonist who torched the place with four more years of destruction?" he said.Bass will go up against Raman, who previously endorsed Bass and was counted as one of her allies. Some on the left see Raman as the manifestation of a party battle between centrist moderates and the far-left socialist fringe trying to take over."My goal hasn't changed. I've been laser-focused on stopping these commie animals, and I will stop them. If you think we uncovered a lot of fraud and evil in the campaign, just wait," he added. KTLA-TV published Pratt's video in its entirety on its YouTube channel.RELATED: Socialist mayoral candidate is outraged at encampment outside her LA home — but its not what it seems "So Karen, Nithya, ask yourself, is it possible that one of your employees may have a recording of you doing or saying something that would force you to resign in disgrace?" he asked. "I hope you sleep well at night over the next five months." The latest ballot count with about 99% of the votes had Bass at 34.3%, Raman at 29%, and Pratt at 25.5% of the votes. The difference between Pratt and Raman was about 30K votes."It's war!" Pratt said in the video. Like Blaze News?

Despite multiple controversies coming to light over the past few months, Maine Senate hopeful Graham Platner has secured the Democratic nomination in his state — winning a whopping 72% of the vote and defeating state governor Janet Mills.Among those controversies was an account on an app known for sexual predators; a Nazi tattoo; and abuse and cheating allegations from women he has dated.But on election night, Platner spun the recent controversies to a crowd of supporters by harping on “love and redemption.”“Love and redemption. Redemption is not just some simple or easy destination. It’s a journey. I’ve made mistakes in my life. Mistakes that I regret, that I live with. That I continue to learn from. I’m still far from perfect,” Platner said.“Every day I wake up, and I try to be a little bit better and a little bit kinder than I was the day before. And if you give me the chance, I will be a senator for the people who cannot afford to buy a senator,” he added.“You called a guy a Nazi for years; then you elected one,” BlazeTV host Dave Landau tells co-host Stu Burguiere on “Stu and Dave Do America.” “It’s just ironic.”Stu agrees, pointing out that the left even called Charlie Kirk a Nazi.“So let’s get a guy with a Nazi tattoo,” he says, before recalling an article written by the Free Press on Platner, which he says catches Platner in “another pathological lie.”Despite uncovered text messages showing that Platner had a romantic relationship with one of his accusers, Platner claimed they didn’t even date.“Obviously not a casual relationship,” Stu says, explaining that many of the various resurfaced text messages were from 2025 — which was "approximately six weeks before he launched his senatorial campaign.”“The last message he sent was right before he launched his campaign. Could there be anything more transparent? … It’s like Jeffrey Epstein coming off of his first, you know, arrest, and saying, ‘Well, he’s saying he’s a better guy and there’s not much more going on,’” he continues.“You don’t run that guy for office,” he says. “There’s something going on, and we’re going to learn more about it, I’m sure.”Want more from Stu and Dave?To enjoy more of Stu and Dave's lethal blend of wit, humor, and insightful commentary subscribe to BlazeTV — the largest multi-platform network of voices who love America, defend the Constitution, and live the American dream.
