One important reason Platner was tanking in the polls even before he was forced out is that he obviously didn't actually care about beating the senator he voted for multiple times. You could watch his speeches and ads after Mills dropped out and have no idea who his general election opponent was

Horrifying: Arizona Democratic congressional candidate Bernadette Greene-Placentia was raped by a man after he knocked her out. Another man approached her to do the same. “She began swinging her foot at him. ‘Not even worth it,’ she heard the man say as he moved away.”

Intervenor Defendants.
FEDERAL DEFENDANTS' STATUS REPORT
On April 7, 2026, this Court denied Plaintiffs' motion for preliminary relief and
granted Federal Defendants' motion to stay proceedings "pending completion of [the
U.S. Food and Drug Administration's] ongoing review of the mifepristone REMS and
issuance of any resulting agency decision." ECF No. 258 at 36. The Court directed FDA to file a report within six months "providing the Court with the status of its review in
terms of process and any updated timeframe for completion of the review." Id.
Accordingly, FDA reports as follows:
FDA is conducting a study to assess the safety of mifepristone, in a
regimen with misoprostol, for the medical termination of intrauterine pregnancy

REMS review. In addition, FDA has been directed to reconsider the 2023 decision
modifying the REMS in two other cases. See Purcell v. Kennedy, Civ. No. 17-00493, 2025
WL 310785 (D. Haw. Oct. 30, 2025); Whole Woman's Health Alliance v. U.S. Food and Drug
Admin., Civ. No. 3:23-00019, 2026 WL 2125567 (W.D. Va. July 23, 2026). Among other
things, those decisions require FDA to apply statutory factors in 21 U.S.C. § 355-1(a)(1)
that, based on the Agency's interpretation of the statutory requirements, it has not
previously evaluated in approving modifications to the REMS; compare mifepristone to
certain other drugs with comparable risks under 21 U.S.C. § 355-1(f) (2) (D)(i); consider
publications beyond those that FDA evaluated in reaching its 2023 decision; and consider the views of patients, providers, and pharmacists if the Agency is considering
imposing elements to assure safe use (also known as ETASU) under 21 U.S.C. § 355-
1(f)(2) as part of the Mifepristone REMS Program.
7. Following completion of its study and review, FDA will decide whether
changes to the Mifepristone REMS Program are necessary and, if applicable, initiate any
such changes in accordance with established processes. FDA anticipates that it will be
able to provide an update to its estimated date of completion as more information
becomes known, particularly in March 2027 when it expects to complete its report on
the final study results
3 In response to the Court's direction to describe "FDA's authority to issue interim orders addressing the prescribing or distribution of a drug if confronted with concerning information during its review," ECF No. 229, the government previously outlined FDA's authorities regarding approval suspension, labeling changes, and REMS

Tesla is browbeating the EU to approve its ‘Full Self-Driving’ tech. The pressure is working.

Elon Musk’s EV company is running a social-media campaign blaming European traffic deaths on red tape. Its safety claims don’t hold up, experts say, but regulators are starting to buckle.

“No they really believe it” is a way better heuristic for understanding political actors than “they are on the take” 9 times out of 10. Sometimes beliefs are downstream of materialism and political economy. But these relationships are more complicated than “bribes”

This article (and Slade's book) are fan fiction. Trumpism isn't a break from Reaganism, it's the intended result, a gov't by, for, and of corruption, lawlessness, racism, and misogyny. That's why Reaganites with power—Thomas, Alito, Kennedy, McConnell—worked hard to empower and entrench Trumpism.
