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.

The right can't seem to see the distance between "I just see trans people as people" and "I will force everyone to become trans whether they want to or not, so help me God"

Way to jump out in front of the train once they saw which way it was going. Pure leadership. A true profile in courage. "Let's wait and see if other people think this is bad before we stick our necks out"

I kinda feel like had Matt Yglesias been around in the late 1780s, he'd have told Jefferson that it's bad for democracy to go around talking to people like Marquis de Lafayette.

The only Star Trek cast member I've ever met in person. I have a picture of him with my mother from about 1982.

Absolutely take your time and double-check your selections. I went through a whole thing with my wife warning her to be aware of this, and it turns out my county switched back to paper ballots.

Kid was murdered in 1997 and his killer got to walk free for a quarter century while someone else was wrongly convicted.

My grandfather's last name was Mink and a lot of people from that side of my family seem remarkably similar to humans, too.

So my daughter requested her absentee ballot from Collin County in early September since she is at school in Arizona and plans to vote her local, Texas ballot. She received notice on MONDAY of this week that they couldn't accept her ballot request and had until Friday to get them a new request.

Sad to learn that the Matt Berry who serves as the US House General Counsel is not the same Matt Berry from 'The IT Crowd' and 'What We Do In the Shadows'

At this point, I really don't think Mexico is looking to get that cannon back.

It's things like this that make America great.

A 'They Live' poster at a No Kings rally. Love it. (the IKEA one is good and funny, too).

Elon Musk donated $500k to Greg Abbott’s campaign, and then Greg Abbott gave him a $2B tax break. It pays to be a Greg Abbott donor. That’s who he works for- not us. https://www.houstonchronicle.com/politics/texas/article/elon-musk-abbott-22455904.php

It would be nice to get back to a point where the use case for whatever technology is being pursued is more clear.

I don’t get why, in Fletch Lives, George Wyner’s divorce lawyer character carries a briefcase made out of thin cardboard.

Why does Trump (who assured everyone over and over that the US was in total control of the strait) keep doing this?

This is so fucking dumb.

So Trump says that a doctor could be arrested if he didn't sue his patients for unpaid bills in defending Sen. Roger Marshall. The lies have never been plausible, but it seems like this ridiculousness is coming faster these days.

I called up a newspaper in Metropolis and one of the reporters there let it slip that Talarico actually took time off from the campaign to foil an evil plan by Lex Luthor and the Legion of Doom.

What would be the purpose of Democrats trying to get an additional 162 votes in a county that Trump got over 81% of the vote in a state where he got over 65% of the vote?

So if the Feds are looking for evidence related to something my father might have done in 1975 or whenever, a reasonable person would think there was a fair probability that such a document that never belonged to me would be in my house?

Door knocker with a Michael Slaughter t-shirt just came by the house. We didn't answer it. I've never had someone door knocking for Collin County Republicans in the 21 years we've lived here. I hope the fact that they feel the need to actually campaign means they're more likely to lose.

ICE officers used their vehicle as a weapon in Texas and hit Miguel Parra-Hernandez. Given how frequently ICE uses instances where agents weren't even hit to use deadly force, should not the officer who used his car as a weapon to injure Parra-Hernandez then be charged with Attempted Murder?

That's insane. Sucks how effective these Russian ops have been.

One of my dogs bit into my leg really hard when I was trying to answer the door. I’m pretty sure she took a chunk out of it. Hurts physically, but I also feel so betrayed. Man’s Best Friend? I don’t see it. And it was the dog who takes Prozac every day, too.

I wish they didn't just focus on Flock. The whole lot of them should at least require a warrant to get data from.

Gov. Abbott wants to bring back junk insurance that doesn't cover anything and doesn't give anyone the protections of ACA-compliant plans. But we'll save so much money as long as we never need to use the shit insurance.

Wonder why Roger Marshall wasn't arrested for skipping out on his cookie bill? He had patients arrested for less.

Do you think Eric Deters is getting a lot more email and texts asking him to pay off people's credit cards these days?

Eva Marie Saint died. As a big fan of ‘North By Northwest’ it’s a little sad to see her go. But 102 years old? That’s a pretty good run.

Down to one reporter at my hometown local newspaper, and he's covering sports.

This is fucking nutbars.

And that's why we renamed our accounting firm: Space Accountants.

That's nuts from Jeffress. My grandmother (who was a member of that church) would have been moderately happy to hear that coming from him. She thought his predecessor was possessed by the Devil when he endorsed Gerald Ford in 1976.

After an appeals court overturned Crystal Mason's conviction in 2024, Tarrant County DA Phil Sorrells continued to prosecute her. His choice has become a flash point in his reelection race this fall against Democrat Tiffany Burks.
