Come on out #SC01! We can flip this seat.

Let's go @macdeford.bsky.social #scpol #sc01 #southcarolina

"After a pro-Palestinian group put out the images of the boot stamping on the Star of David, the college condemned that. But when you have these right-wing publications that quote Hitler—that does not get condemnation." @alexbronzini.bsky.social discusses Harvard's double standard on antisemitism.

We’re hitting the road with Senator Cory Booker! Join the SCDP on Jan. 17–18 for a multi-county tour focused on the challenges facing working Americans under Trump and Republicans’ policies, especially the skyrocketing cost of health care RSVP! docs.google.com/document/d/1... #CoryBooker #SCPol

JUST IN: Reps. Massie and Khanna say "DOJ cannot be trusted" to release all of the Epstein files, urge a federal judge to appoint an independent overseer to make it happen. khanna.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

For the confused: Jan. 6 was an insurrection. Invading other countries is illegal. Killing foreign nationals without evidence is murder. The innocent don't hide evidence. Trans people are human beings. Immigrants are human beings. Rape and pedophilia are evil. No one is above the law.

He's got that right. Congress went back to work this week to discuss... Showerheads. Sigh. Let's send @macdeford.bsky.social to DC this year! #scpol #sc01 #southcarolina #bluewave

100% my choice for SC governor. Hosting a community meeting before the SC House session to *listen to constituents*- this is the leader I want in 2026. Vote Jermaine in the summer primaries and again in the general. #scpol #SouthCarolina #NewSC

NYT: At least 40 people were killed in the US attack on Venezuela, including military personnel and civilians.

Absolutely this- AND it puts our military in danger. Glad we have @macdeford.bsky.social - who is a Coast Guard Veteran himself- running for the SC-01 Congress seat. #scpol #southcarolina #SC01 #bluewave

I didn't have waking up to attacks on Venezuela on my 2026 bingo card, but here we are... not good.

Neighbors are setting off leftover fireworks... some of us do have to work tomorrow... gotta love January and financial/tax season!

I still don't understand the New Years Day polar plunges, and I'm not sure I ever will.

Vincent is the best candidate for SC-07 that I've seen in awhile. Florence, Myrtle Beach, Darlington, Hartsville, Conway, Lake City SC... Check him out 💙

Sadly, yes.

"Right now, I think it's 41 percent Americans trust AI. It's got a very low approval rating. It's not as low as Donald Trump's, yet, but it's close." The opportunities could be amazing too. We need trust. @captmarkkelly.bsky.social joins @johnavlon.bsky.social on How To Fix It:

Remember when Presidents did national speeches for emergencies or times where a nation needs to hear from their leader? This angry old man is literally screaming and clearly panicking

😳🇺🇸

As Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis stated in 1933; “We can have democracy in this country or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of the few, but we cannot have both.” Today, at a time of unprecedented income & wealth inequality, his words ring truer than ever.

Zoe Weissman survived the Parkland shooting. Now she’s at Brown, and it happened again. “Honestly, I'm really angry that this is happening to me all over again, and I'm just in shock.” We’re failing our kids. A gun-sick nation. 🇺🇸 www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

Can confirm.

Watching the UGA/BAMA game and kinda sad both teams can't lose...

I agree with everything you say here my former congressional colleague. And I also blame you for everything you say here. Bcuz you had the power to stop this dangerous quack. And you caved. Shame on you.

BERMAN: Would it be legal for police in Arkansas to kill suspected drug dealers on a boat in a lake? TOM COTTON: The premise of your question is not well-founded BERMAN: The answer is no. It would not be legal to kill them.

If you ever wondered what GOP gerrymandering looks like in red states with blue cities, I present:

So, I know a rockstar senior software developer (not me) looking for work. Smart but strong, nerdy but has hobbies outside of work and well rounded. Victim of a company merger =/. Let me know any leads I can pass onto him!

Kelly: He runs around on stage talking about lethality and the warrior ethos.. That’s not the message that should be coming from the Secretary of Defense… He runs around on a stage like he’s a 12 year old playing army. It’s embarrassing.

America’s strength comes from how we use force, not just that we have it. What happened in the Caribbean crosses a line we cannot afford to ignore.

Nobody outside this country is wondering, like the pundit class does, what was wrong with Kamala Harris. Everybody outside this country is wondering what’s wrong with US.

Let’s be clear: these are extrajudicial killings. “Kill them all” Hegseth needs to be held accountable. What’s more, Trump promised the American people no new wars but is now manufacturing this conflict & lying about his motives. This warmongering has got to stop.

Clemson vs. South Carolina game today... as a gamecock this is our last chance to redeem this season. As long as we don't get blown out, I am good...

A president threatening political opponents with death is not normal. It’s dangerous. We have to call it out.

X has changed their policy and now you can see where the accounts are based. Here’s an “influencer from Texas”

Again…give Schumer credit where credit is due. www.politicususa.com/p/trump-and-...

I have no clue how young people do it. Most folks are renting apartments with 2-3 friends. Roommates are fun in college but not when you're in your 30s and want to settle down, own a home, and start a family. Folks born and raised in SC-01 cannot afford to stay here.

Fun times running in the woods on Saturday for the Hallucination 6 hour! Palmetto Ultras is a great org, very inclusive and fun events.

When Texas tried to steal 5 seats, I said to watch the litigation my law firm had filed because we had a good chance of winning in court. Today a federal court BLOCKED THE MAP. While the legacy media ignored our case, Democracy Docket covered it from gavel to gavel. Subscribe now. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

Having an inarticulate man who has never been in a grocery store give an inaccurate speech to people who are in grocery stores all the time that is full of easily disproven lies about how grocery prices are going down isn't a winning "affordability" strategy.

Gotta love writing meeting minutes on a Sunday evening and the "Relax Reminder" goes off on your Garmin watch, urging you to do a breathing exercise to get away from the stress.

Join me at www.defordforcongress.com if you’re ready to flip SC01 and ensure competent leadership after Nancy Mace.

I don't come on BlueSky much but it is nice to see happy people the day after an election.

People of Illinois, we need your help. Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.

So…let me see if I have this right. The federal government is gonna shut down in 30hrs, and the party that controls the ENTIRE federal government is trying to blame the party that controls NONE of the federal government for the looming shutdown?
