In a statement, Gertner slammed a former friend for spreading “malicious gossip” in the wake of a Wall Street Journal report that she had informed her husband’s campaign of the texts in late August.” – Politico 05/30/2026 The app Platner was using, Kik, has a problematic history with predators due to its anonymous chatting and lack of age verification controls.

| Totenkopf Denial: | Platner initially denied knowing his chest tattoo was a Nazi SS symbol known as a Totenkopf. However, his past Reddit posts show “P-Hustle” defending the Hate symbol in several post: “In one thread from 2019, Platner weighed in on a conversation about the “Totenkopf” — the skull-and-crossbones emblem worn by Nazi SS units that his own tattoo would later draw scrutiny for resembling — to note that many US service members had adopted similar imagery, such as the Punisher skull used by some Navy SEALs. …the former Marine infantryman and future Democratic Senate hopeful also argued in a 2020 online discussion that “SS” lightning-bolt tattoos were a “culture” marker within Marine Scout Sniper units, not an expression of White supremacist ideology. When commenters in the 2020 thread described the lightning bolts as a Nazi or racist symbol, Platner dismissed the criticism, writing that outsiders “have no idea what they’re talking about” and added, “I will be sure to inform the Black guys I know with bolts that they’re Nazis now.” …CNN also spoke with an acquaintance of Platner from more than a decade ago who said Platner spoke about his tattoo resembling a Nazi symbol. A second person told CNN that they learned of the tattoo years ago from the acquaintance, who told them that Platner had described it as a Nazi-style design. CNN also reviewed a text chain between the acquaintance and another person discussing Platner’s Nazi-like tattoo several months ago, before the story became public.” – CNN Oct 24 2025 “Maine U.S. Senate candidate Graham Platner revealed Tuesday that he was tattooed years ago with an image widely recognized as a Nazi symbol, but he dismissed the connotation and chalked it up to a drunken Marine’s attempt at fearsomeness.” – AP News Oct 21 2025 “Why don’t black people tip? I work as a bartender and it always amazes me how solid this stereotype is,” he wrote on Reddit. – Maine Monitor Oct 17 2025 “That same year, he also responded to a post about underwear designed to prevent [SA] saying people should “take some responsibility for themselves and not get so f—-ked up they wind up having s-x with someone they don’t mean to?”– Bangor Daily News Oct 17 2025 Additional info on Racist Symbols at the United Holocaust Memorial Museum and Southern Poverty Law Center. |
| Problematic Reddit Comments | “Why don’t black people tip? I work as a bartender and it always amazes me how solid this stereotype is,” he wrote on Reddit. – Maine Monitor Oct 17 2025 “That same year, he also responded to a post about underwear designed to prevent [SA] saying people should “take some responsibility for themselves and not get so f—-ked up they wind up having s-x with someone they don’t mean to?”– Bangor Daily News Oct 17 2025 “Pull into Bahrain in ’07 on a MEU, a Royal Navy submarine happens to be in port at the same time. … Before we even realize what’s going on, the other weird bastard just leans down and licks the damn thing from the bottom of the ballsack all the way up to the top of the dick. Stands up, looks dead at us and yells ‘BEAT THAT!’ … I proudly withdrew our team on the grounds that one cannot play gay chicken if one is actually gay.” – Advocate Oct 22, 2025 In July 2018, Platner joked in another thread, “I suppose some gay fellas still prefer holes as well. Party on top bros.” – Advocate Oct 22, 2025 A month later, in August 2018, he used a homophobic slur while arguing with another user: “Betcha not a single downvoter is a real combat vet. Feel free to back it up with facts, fags.” – Advocate Oct 22, 2025 In December 2019, Platner mocked military officers, writing, “Officers are gay. Army or navy, I really don’t give a fuck about your frat.” – Advocate Oct 22, 2025 “This was the gayest (not in the fun dick sucking way) thing I’ve ever seen. This dude is literally everything I hate all rolled into one.” – Advocate Oct 22, 2025 |

| Support for Graham Platner | In May 28, 2026, Moulton defended Maine Senate Candidate Graham “P-Hustle” Platner amid backlash over his Nazi tattoo and previous racist comments, normalizing SA, and other troubling remarks. However, in June a NY Times article interviewing Platner’s exes alleged that he was domestically abusive and knew his tatto was a hate symbol. “Graham clearly made a mistake,” Moulton told CNN on Wednesday. “What I appreciated about him is he owned that mistake. He took responsibility for it. And I don’t think that that’s disqualifying.” – The Hill. May 28, 2026 |
| Transphobic Comments | “Democrats spend way too much time trying not to offend anyone…I have two little girls, I don’t want them getting run over on a playing field by a male or formerly male athlete, but as a Democrat I’m supposed to be afraid to say that,” – NY Times. Nov 7, 2024 “I mean, here we are accusing Republicans of being weird and we’re the ones who are suddenly requiring people to put pronouns in their email signatures. I mean, that’s kind of weird, to be honest. You know, we went through the whole gay rights movement. We went through the whole Civil Rights Movement. We never had to say, you know, ‘Seth Moulton: Straight’ or ‘Seth Moulton: White.’ And all of a sudden, we have to change all our values to meet the needs or demands of one very small minority group. ” – WGHB Org. Nov 8, 2024 “I was just speaking authentically as a dad about one of many issues where I think we’re just out of touch with the majority of voters, and I stand by my position. The backlash I’ve received proves my point that we can’t even have these discussions as a party.” – MSNBC Appearance. Nov 11, 2024 |

| Immmigration | Along with Lynch, was the only Massachusetts politician to vote for the controversial Laken Riley Act. According to National Immigration Law Center, “This bill is particularly extreme because it applies mandatory immigration detention solely on the basis of an arrest or charge, risking the prolonged detention of people innocent of the charges brought against them. These provisions also exacerbate racial disparities because Black and Brown people are arrested at disproportionately high rates throughout the United States.” |
