"When news came out about your tattoo—the skull and crossbones design that resembles Nazi imagery—you said it was fed from people researching your background who wanted to discredit you," says host Anna Sale to Senate candidate Graham Platner on the latest episode of Death, Sex & Money.

Platner replies, "We have our suspicions. The governor announced the campaign on a Tuesday and all of the negative stories began to drop Wednesday, Thursday, Friday of that week. You don't have to do a lot of deep thinking to find connections there."
