This is what putting South Carolina first looks like. I’m honored to have the support of two former governors — Republican David Beasley and Democrat Jim Hodges. We may not agree on everything, but we share a belief that matters most: S.C. deserves leaders who will always put its people first.

It's Artificial Intelligence. It's Twitter. It's the Gulf of Mexico. It's Lake Ontario. It's the Department of Defense. It's the Kennedy Center.

Add it up: $12 million for a car race, $5.2 million for a cage fight, and more than $300 million for a ballroom he swore would cost the public nothing. Call it $317 million in vanity, financed by people who never got a vote on any of it.

The White House was never supposed to be a palace. George Washington and architect James Hoban deliberately rejected the lavish style of European monarchies. Instead, they designed a President’s House that reflected the ideals of a republic: dignified, restrained, and accountable to the people.

Hey, can anyone in Congress with some shred of decency stop this asshole? Do you all want to die that badly?!

We asked the White House if the president is mulling the use of nuclear weapons. Six minutes later, the White House press office declined to rule out the use of nuclear weapons. Instead, an unnamed official wrote, “We refer you to the President’s TRUTH on this inquiry.

For convenience and efficiency I am addressing absolutely everyone inclined to say anything like this to me when I mock or criticize a candidate: go fuck yourself.

loved every second of Bad Bunny. That message of inclusion and a celebration of cultures like Puerto Rico’s is just what America needs right now. Plus, his music just gets you in motion. 10/10

The Norwegian Nobel Committee made it clear that while a laureate can physically give away the medal or other physical items, that does not make someone else a Nobel Peace Prize winner. The official title and recognition remain tied to the person the committee originally selected.

After this miserable shitshow of an administration, I have no faith in the current Democratic leadership. Y’ALL NEED TO STEP UP YOUR GAME. Your #1 focus needs to be getting Hamburger Hitler and his Nazi Elite out of the White House. Happy to file impeachment for you if you can’t.

"Voters have rejected him. Courage is contagious. There are clear signs of the regime cracking and Trump weakening that are right in front of us. I’m encouraged by it, and I think Democrats have to learn that we need to act with greater ambition, because when we challenge Trump, we keep winning."

The American people electing Trump after he staged a coup attempt 5 years ago was a nail in the coffin of our democracy. You can rationalize it all you want - But inflation! But wokeness! - but ultimately it was a societal suicide attempt and probably the dumbest collective voting decision ever made

Hey, Congress people! Don't give us any bullshit about yet another performative vote to get the other side "on the record." Tell us how you're going to hold this lawless president to account, or STFU.

My periodic reminder that Sarah Palin (quite correctly) called for Rahm Emmanuel to be fired when he used the "R" word. And my periodic reminder that maybe a political reporter wants to ask her what should happen when Trump uses it. Like any reporter.

What the actual fuck?

HINSON: As a mom, I think about watching a baby monitor. That's a very intimate moment with your baby and to think the Chinese could be spying on your morning routine BARTIROMO: Why are they spying on moms? HINSON: They just want to know what Americans are up to to undermine our way of life

I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here
