Elizabeth Warren Under Fire After Praising Democrat With Nazi Tattoo Who Mocked Wounded Veteran [WATCH]

Senator Elizabeth Warren is taking heat once again, this time for publicly calling Maine Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner “my kind of man,” even as a storm of grotesque revelations about him continues to unfold.

The progressive darling who never misses an opportunity to lecture conservatives on morality or “white supremacy” is now stone silent when asked to explain her glowing endorsement of a man linked to Nazi imagery and vile attacks on an American veteran.

Platner, who once joked online that the Taliban had “poor marksmanship” because they failed to kill a wounded U.S. soldier, is now scrambling after Fox News and other outlets unearthed his shocking social media past.

His remarks targeted Teddy Daniels, a decorated combat veteran and Purple Heart recipient, who was filmed under fire in Afghanistan.

Here’s What They’re Not Telling You About Your Retirement

Platner mocked the footage and called Daniels a man who should not have survived, typing, “Dumb mother… didn’t deserve to live.”

When conservative radio host Larry O’Connor stitched together clips of Warren shouting, “my kind of man,” over narration of Platner’s disturbing statements, the result was a brutal audio takedown that spread quickly across social media.

O’Connor’s piece mocked Warren’s double standard, pointing out her past outrage over supposed “Christian extremism” while she now hugs a man proudly flaunting Nazi-style ink.

This Could Be the Most Important Video Gun Owners Watch All Year

Reporters confronted Warren outside a Washington office building this week to ask about Platner’s history. The senator smiled awkwardly, said nothing, and ducked into the building without comment. Her silence spoke volumes.

Platner’s record is too ugly to brush off as old internet nonsense. In addition to his crude joke about a wounded vet, he once wrote about becoming aroused by the chemical smell inside portable toilets.

Graham Platner boasted “I still have to jerk off every time I sit in a portas—-er… that blue water smell conditioned me.”

Other posts included praise for vulgar graffiti and nasty digs at the late Navy SEAL Chris Kyle, the hero portrayed in “American Sniper.” Platner dismissed Kyle as a “psychopathic murderer.” Yet this is the man Warren deemed “her kind.”

WATCH:

The bizarre hypocrisy is not lost on conservatives who recall Warren’s past outrage over the tattoos of others. In 2025 she sent a 33-page letter questioning Pete Hegseth’s Christian tattoo reading “Deus Vult,” Latin for “God wills it.”

She implied that such religious symbolism might represent a threat of “Christian nationalism.”

Fast forward to 2026 and Warren now cozies up to a man whose own tattoo has clear Nazi ties.

Conservative commentator Western Lensman called out the glaring inconsistency, saying that the left’s endless shrieks about white supremacy are “performative nonsense.”

Bernadette Breslin, a former senior aide to Sen. Josh Hawley, drew attention to Warren’s quick retreat, noting her silence after enthusiastically backing Platner just weeks ago. Breslin posted side-by-side clips showing Warren praising him before fleeing questions.

Others in the Democratic Party are running for cover as well.

When Fox News Digital asked House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries whether he had seen Platner’s messages, he claimed ignorance and hurried away.

It seems Democrats who love preaching accountability go suddenly mute when the scandal involves one of their own.

The GOP wasted no time sharpening the contrast.

The Republican National Committee’s rapid-response team linked Warren’s praise of Platner to another Iowa Senate candidate who proudly touted her endorsement.

They reminded voters that Warren’s chosen favorites include a man who “praised Hamas tactics” and told women to “act like adults” to avoid rape.

That pattern hardly screams moral leadership.

For his part, Teddy Daniels refused to let Platner’s insults get under his skin.

The tough-as-nails veteran told Fox News’ “The Bottom Line” that he is used to left-wing smears and considers them a sign of weakness.

He called Platner “a coward” and mocked the Democratic candidate’s meltdown over an online video, saying that kind of emotional fragility is “not the type of leadership we need in our government.”

Daniels, who nearly died fighting terrorists, expressed more character in a two-minute interview than Platner has shown in his entire campaign.

Platner now claims his vile posts were the product of post-traumatic stress and “personal depression” after his military service.

In a statement, he said, “I’m sorry for this,” and begged voters to judge him by “the person I am today.”

That plea might sound more convincing if Democrats had ever extended such understanding to a conservative who said something half as appalling.

Instead, the left’s usual playbook of cancel culture and moral outrage suddenly disappears.

Meanwhile, the controversy threatens to derail Democrats’ hopes of claiming Republican Susan Collins’ Maine seat.

Collins, known for her independence, could now benefit from a backlash among moderate voters repulsed by Platner’s behavior and Warren’s refusal to defend her comments.

This saga highlights what conservatives have long said about the modern Democratic movement: principles are optional, and outrage is selective.

Warren loved to talk tough about Christian symbols, conservative men, and “toxic masculinity.”

But when faced with a fellow Democrat who mocks troops, sports Nazi-style tattoos, and writes obscene posts online, she smiles for the cameras and walks away.

That silence, far louder than her moral sermons, tells voters everything they need to know about the progressive double standard.

And it could cost Democrats dearly in a state that still values integrity, decency, and respect for the men and women who have actually fought for freedom.
