蕾切尔·坎波斯-达菲就民主党参议院候选人被控“令人不安的行为”发表回应
《福克斯周日&朋友》联合主持人蕾切尔·坎波斯-达菲就民主党参议院候选人格雷厄姆·普拉特纳遭遇的令人不安的指控发表看法。

一名众议院资深民主党议员加入了越来越多批评者的行列,质疑参议院候选人格雷厄姆·普拉特纳声称自己不知道其纹身具有纳粹渊源的说法。
“他不可能不知道这个纹身是什么,”伊利诺伊州民主党众议员布拉德·施耐德周五在接受《Punchbowl News》采访时表示,“正视此事,然后翻篇。”
“但他不愿这么做,”身为众议院民主党最大党团主席的施耐德感叹道。
施耐德的表态使他成为批评这位缅因州参议院候选人的最高级别民主党人士之一。此前,普拉特纳还因多项争议面临越来越多的审查:包括新婚期间向其他女性发送露骨色情信息、长达数十年的冒犯性社交媒体帖子历史,以及被指控在以往恋爱关系中存在虐待行为。

民主党国会议员痛斥格雷厄姆·普拉特纳的纳粹关联纹身“ disqualifying”(注:该词在竞选语境中意为“丧失参选资格”)
普拉特纳是一名极左翼民粹主义者,正试图在11月中期选举竞争最激烈的席位之一中挑战现任参议员、缅因州共和党人苏珊·柯林斯。他是缅因州民主党推定候选人,但一些党内知情人士对其参选的可行性表示怀疑,原因是一连串丑闻。
施耐德公开批评此前,《纽约时报》周四报道称,普拉特纳的几位前女友表示,这位参议院候选人清楚自己纹身的纳粹关联设计。
其中一名女子林赛·法菲尔德告诉《泰晤士报》,普拉特纳曾向她解释过这个黑色骷髅头交叉骨纹身的含义,并将其称为“我的骷髅头徽章”。
“他还会拿这个是纳粹纹身开玩笑,”法菲尔德说,并补充称普拉特纳表示,他选择这个纹身是因为认为自己所在的部队与纳粹党卫军准军事部队有相似之处。
普拉特纳周四在接受MS NOW节目主持人克里斯·海耶斯采访时,强烈否认了法菲尔德的说法。但当被问及2025年8月法菲尔德曾向朋友发短信称他有一个纳粹关联纹身,而他本人则在两个月后的10月“Pod Save America”播客节目中首次公开披露该纹身时,他难以自圆其说。
“她怎么会在去年8月就知道这是纳粹纹身,而你在去年8月却不知道?”海耶斯向普拉特纳问道。
“我没法解释为什么,”普拉特纳说,并补充称自己没有收到法菲尔德的那条短信。“我当时确实不知道,她发给朋友的短信里可能已经认出了这个纹身,但他们没告诉我。”
法菲尔德还指控普拉特纳在两人交往期间曾袭击过她——普拉特纳称这一指控是虚假的。

格雷厄姆·普拉特纳的指控者抨击《纽约时报》涉嫌淡化指控,称报道是对该民主党人的“馈赠”
在2025年底该纹身成为竞选争议焦点后,普拉特纳已经将其遮盖。他表示,自己2007年在克罗地亚服役期间与海军陆战队战友饮酒一夜时纹了这个纹身,此后佩戴了近20年。
在民主党内部就普拉特纳的参选资格产生分歧之际,施耐德表示,如果自己是缅因州选民,他将很难为其投票。
“我将把选择权交给缅因州人民,”他在接受《Punchbowl News》采访时表示,“谢天谢地我不必做出这个选择。我根本不想做这样的选择。”
马萨诸塞州民主党众议员杰克·奥钦克罗斯和宾夕法尼亚州民主党参议员约翰·费特曼也尖锐批评了普拉特纳关于其已被遮盖纹身的言论。
“我想说的是,在我成长的过程中,如果有人身上有明显的纳粹纹身,你大概可以断定他们是纳粹同情者,”费特曼本周早些时候告诉美国有线电视新闻网,“你还要继续为其辩护,还是打算就此作罢?”

Top House Democrat says there’s ‘no way’ Platner didn’t know tattoo’s Nazi origins

Ex-girlfriend Lyndsey Fifield said Platner referred to the design as ‘my Totenkopf,’ according to a report

Rachel Campos-Duffy reacts to allegations of ‘unsettling behavior’ against Dem Senate candidate
Rachel Campos-Duffy, ‘Fox & Friends Weekend’ co-host, offers her take on the disturbing allegations against Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner.
NEW You can now listen to Fox News articles!
A senior House Democrat is joining the growing chorus of critics questioning Senate candidate Graham Platner’s claim that he was unaware of his tattoo’s Nazi origins.
“There’s no way he didn’t know what the tattoo was,” Rep. Brad Schneider, D-Ill., said Friday in remarks reported by Punchbowl News. “Own it and move on.”
“He’s not willing to do that,” Schneider, the chairman of House Democrats’ largest caucus, lamented.
Schneider’s comments make him one of the most high-profile Democrats to criticize the Maine Senate hopeful, who has also faced mounting scrutiny over sending sexually-explicit messages to other women while newly married, a decades-long history of offensive social media posts and alleged abuse in previous romantic relationships.

DEMOCRAT CONGRESSMAN SLAMS GRAHAM PLATNER’S NAZI-LINKED TATTOO AS ‘DISQUALIFYING’
Platner, a far-left populist, is vying to unseat Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, in one of the most hotly contested races of November’s midterm elections. He is Maine Democrats’ presumptive nominee, though some party insiders have expressed doubts about the viability of his candidacy amid a string of scandals.
Schneider’s public criticism came after The New York Times reported Thursday that several of Platner’s ex-girlfriends said the Senate hopeful knew about his tattoo’s Nazi-linked design.
One of the women, Lyndsey Fifield, told The Times that Platner taught her the words behind the black skull-and-crossbones tattoo, referring to it as “my Totenkopf.”
“He would joke about it being a Nazi tattoo,” Fifield said, adding that Platner said he chose the tattoo because of his belief that his unit shared similarities to the Nazi SS paramilitary forces.
Platner vigorously denied Fifield’s account during an interview with MS NOW’s Chris Hayes on Thursday. But he struggled to answer when pressed about how Fifield sent a text to friends saying he had a Nazi-linked tattoo in August 2025, when he first publicly disclosed it two months later during an October podcast episode of “Pod Save America.”
“How does she know it’s a Nazi tattoo in August of last year, and you don’t know it’s a Nazi tattoo in August of last year?” Hayes asked Platner.
“I can’t say why,” Platner said, adding that he was not a recipient of Fifield’s message. “I certainly didn’t know, and the text messages she’s sending to friends may have recognized it. They didn’t tell me that.”
Fifield also alleged that Platner assaulted her at one point during their relationship — an allegation that Platner said was false.

GRAHAM PLATNER ACCUSER HITS NYT FOR ALLEGEDLY SOFTENING ALLEGATIONS, SAYS COVERAGE WAS ‘GIFT’ TO DEMOCRAT
Platner has since had the tattoo covered up after it became a campaign issue in late 2025. He wore it for nearly two decades after he said he got it during a night of drinking with his fellow Marines while stationed in Croatia in 2007.
Amid Democrats’ divisions over Platner’s candidacy, Schneider indicated that he would struggle to support him at the ballot box if he were a Maine voter.
“I’ll leave it to the people of Maine to elect who they want,” he said, in remarks reported by Punchbowl News. “I’m grateful I don’t have to make that choice. I wouldn’t want to have to make that choice.”
Rep. Jake Auchincloss, D-Mass., and Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., have also sharply criticized Platner’s statements related to his since-covered-up tattoo.
“All I’m saying is when I was growing up, if someone had a clear Nazi tattoo on them, you probably could conclude that they’re a Nazi sympathizer,” Fetterman told CNN earlier this week. “Are you going to continue to defend that or dismiss that?”
