Graham Platner Under Pressure to Drop Maine Senate Race, McConnell's Health Mystery, Rui Hachimura Joins Clippers, and Tom Sandoval Faces Abuse Allegations

Just one month after winning Maine's Democratic Senate primary, Graham Platner is facing growing calls to end his campaign. Last night, a woman who dated Platner went on CNN and accused him of raping her in 2021. Platner called those allegations "categorically false" and said he's taking time to reflect on the best path forward for his campaign.   Also, Senator Mitch McConnell is reportedly "continuing his recovery" after being hospitalized more than three weeks ago.
