BREAKING: Several women recall 'unsettling' experiences with Graham Platner per New York Times - Deadline - MS NOW [View all]

Brand new reporting from the New York Times states that Graham Platner, Democratic candidate for Senate in Maine, "could be charming, women said in interviews, but some found his actions intimidating and disturbing." In response to the allegations, Platner's campaign told the Times: "Mr. Platner 'strongly disputes' any claims of physical intimidation or altercations." MS NOW has not independently verified these claims.

Nicolle Wallace is joined by Tim Miller and Molly Jong-Fast for reaction. - Aired on 06/04/2026.
