周一，缅因州联邦参议员候选人格雷厄姆·普拉特纳与佛蒙特州独立党参议员伯尼·桑德斯一同亮相，并呼应了多项桑德斯风格的进步派主张，批评连任五届的共和党参议员苏珊·柯林斯，同时抨击美国针对加沙和伊朗冲突的武器开支。
作为有望在11月选举中击败柯林斯的推定民主党提名候选人，普拉特纳在波特兰由桑德斯主持的“打击寡头政治”集会上发表了激烈言论。此次活动旨在动员进步派活动人士，并在中期选举前扩大基层组织工作。波特兰之行是桑德斯与普拉特纳以及州长候选人特洛伊·杰克逊一同在缅因州的竞选行程之一。
集会期间，普拉特纳大量使用反企业言论，告诉欢呼的进步派人群，他们必须发起一场“政治革命”，夺回“属于我们的东西”。
“我们正在夺回属于我们的东西。我们要从那些不惜一切代价追求利润的企业手中夺回，从那些以贪婪为宗旨的亿万富翁手中夺回，还要从苏珊·柯林斯这样的腐败政客手中夺回，那些出卖我们的腐败政客，”普拉特纳说道。

“这套体系就是苏珊·柯林斯的政治，这种政治将政客变成百万富翁，却告诉民众要为残羹剩饭心存感激。”
整场活动中，普拉特纳呼应了桑德斯的经济论调，指责健康保险高管“用我们的血汗钱中饱私囊”。

他还就中东问题发表了尖锐评论，声称美国纳税人的钱被用于“炸毁其他人的孩子”。
“我们的税收可以在美国建设学校和医院，而不是用于向加沙和伊朗投放炸弹，”他说道。
桑德斯随后登台，将普拉特纳的当选称为进步派运动的关键时刻，并告诉支持者：“你们选举格雷厄姆·普拉特纳为参议员，就将改变美国。”

这位佛蒙特州参议员明确将普拉特纳与他针对超级富豪的税收提案绑定。
“我提出了一项法案，格雷厄姆将与我并肩作战推动该法案，该法案规定，我们将对美国938名亿万富翁征收5%的年度财富税，”桑德斯说道。桑德斯今年早些时候提出了一项法案，提议对美国938名亿万富翁征收5%的年度财富税。
普拉特纳还被描绘成对抗埃隆·马斯克和马克·扎克伯格等科技巨头亿万富翁的盟友，他警告称，否则“少数亿万富翁”可能会掌控人工智能和机器人技术的未来。
“格雷厄姆明白……我们不会让少数亿万富翁掌控这个国家的未来，”桑德斯说道。

Maine Democrat Graham Platner embraces anti-billionaire message in blistering Susan Collins attack

Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner appeared alongside Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., on Monday and echoed several Sanders-style progressive themes, criticizing five-term Republican Sen. Susan Collins, criticizing and U.S. weapons spending tied to conflicts in Gaza and Iran.
Platner, the presumptive Democratic nominee seeking to unseat Collins in November, made the fiery remarks during a “Fighting Oligarchy” rally led by Sanders in Portland — an event aimed at mobilizing progressive activists and expanding grassroots organizing efforts ahead of the midterm elections. The Portland event was one of Sanders’ Maine stops with Platner and gubernatorial candidate Troy Jackson.
During the rally, Platner leaned heavily into anti-corporate rhetoric, telling a crowd of cheering progressives they must build a “political revolution” and take back “what is ours.”
“We are taking back what is ours. We’re going to take it back from the corporations that seek profit, no matter the cost from the billionaires for whom greed is the point, and from corrupt politicians like Susan Collins, corrupt politicians who have sold us out,” Platner said.

“It is a system that is the politics of Susan Collins, a politics that turns politicians into millionaires, but tells you to be grateful for crumbs.”
Throughout the evening, Platner echoed Sanders’ economic talking points, accusing health insurance executives of “lining their pockets with our blood, sweat, and tears.”

He also made sharp comments regarding the Middle East, claiming American tax dollars are being weaponized to “blow up someone else’s children.”
“Our tax dollars can build schools and hospitals in America instead of bombs to drop on them in Gaza and Iran,” he said.
Sanders later took the stage and cast Platner’s election as a key moment for the progressive movement, telling supporters, “You elect Graham Platner senator, you’re going to transform America.”

The Vermont senator explicitly tied Platner to his tax proposals targeting the ultra-wealthy.
“I introduced legislation, which Graham will be by my side in fighting for, which says that we are going to impose a 5% annual wealth tax on 938 billionaires in America,” Sanders said.Sanders introduced legislation earlier this year proposing a 5% annual wealth tax on 938 U.S. billionaires.
Platner was also portrayed as an ally in battling major tech billionaires such as Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg, warning that a “handful of billionaires” could otherwise control the future of artificial intelligence and robotics.
“Graham understands… we are not going to let a handful of billionaires control the future of this country,” Sanders said.
