She has evidence that she had some contact with Platner. But according to the narrative she describes, there couldn’t have been any text messages providing direct evidence of the assault. She’s saying that at the time, she sent messages to other people. But it’s not like Platner texted her a confession. But come on, it’s 2026. You need to be a little more cynical, less naive, and have a properly calibrated bullshit detector. Did Platner assault her? Certainly possible. But it’s also sus as hell. And yes, it clearly is meant to be politically motivated. She may be a Democrat, but as we’ve seen, plenty of Democrats hate progressive candidates. And the timing is damning. She may be a legitimate victim, but if so, she’s also cynically manipulating her rape for political points. She’s literally using her sexual assault as a political poker chip. You don’t perfectly time the allegation to have maximum political impact otherwise.

    How conspiracy minded do you have to be to think she texted her friend warning her about Platner years before his senate run in order to sabotage him now? Why else would she say Platner assaulted her in this way other than he assaulted her?
