NOTE: Politico’s response to Breaking Points and Drop Site News on the gaps in reporting follows: “This story is based on extensive reporting and interviews and reflects our editorial standards. In interviews with us and in accounts she gave to other outlets, Jenny Racicot said that she told Graham Platner not to come to her home and that he nevertheless showed up there uninvited. POLITICO gave Platner and his campaign ample opportunity to respond to our reporting and to provide any information or documentation they believed contradicted it. If presented with information that materially challenges our reporting, we will report it.” Ryan and Saagar discuss exclusive reporting on key details missing from the Graham Platner story.

The problem is that if Platner were pro Israel and pro corporate, the big media outlets wouldn’t have printed or aired any of this. They wouldn’t have even sought it out to begin with. They would’ve kept it in their back pocket as leverage to keep him in line. This is the fundamental problem with a system where everything and everyone is for sale.

And so? She did not consent at one point and that means it was rape. There are no perfect victims.

This still doesn't excuse the sexual assault part though. Misunderstanding a signal and going to her house drunk is bad but forgivable. Jumping on top of her and not stopping when she refused is sex assault. That's rape.
