This is a cute superhero themed ad from Jaime Harrison, who is down JUST 2% in the polls against Lindsey Graham. Graham has been SC Senator since 2003. We need #termlimits and we need @harrisonjaime. I just donated.

[Jaime Harrison @harrisonjaime]

I may not be a superhero, but I am a proud South Carolinian, and I'm ready to fight for a better future for our state and our country. I hope you are, too. Find out how you can #JoinJaime and get involved: https://t.co/2jIqtqbKAB

All Hands on Deck, Tribe! @roscoe_is_doug , fellow Tribe, has a video on Amazon Prime called #Traumedy. It’s a combo of poetry and comedy. He needs views AND reviews! The sooner, the better.

I hope this kind @uber driver can get a shoutout from a network larger than mine. @TheRealDaytime @starlocalmedia @CBSDFW @mckinneymag @impactnews

Also, shoutout to @Michelin tires. When my tire blew, I still had complete control over my car.

[Candace G. Wiley @CandaceGWiley]

I want to shout out @Uber driver Donovan Henry from McKinney, TX. I was hours from home when my tire busted. It was 7 pm on Saturday. I was on the side of a highway and the sun was setting. I didn’t have family or friends close by, so I called #Uber and pulled out my jack.

[Candace G. Wiley @CandaceGWiley]

... on the rim, filled and balanced it, then put it on my car. This all took 2 hours and he wouldn’t take a dime from me. He just told me to pay it forward. I hope @Uber knows what a good person he is. #goodsamaritan I was back on the road around 9.
