NEW: Republican sources in Tennessee tell me President Trump is “encouraging” Governor-elect Marsha Blackburn to appoint Pete Hegseth to her U.S. Senate seat.
Blackburn could resign imminently.
That would let outgoing Governor Bill Lee name Hegseth quickly and give Trump time to get a new Pentagon chief confirmed during the lame-duck session.
Ron DeSantis has every right to dance on Trump Inc’s grave after what they did to him in 2024.
You can already see the Trump Inc influencers sidling up to DeSantis as they look to catch on and stay relevant.
Remember those of us who were OG DeSantis.
The SC GOP and its establishment needs to be burned to the ground and rebuilt.
Yall wanted to let out of staters and outside money decide our primary? Congrats now you’re represented by a transplant who can’t even say "South Carolina" properly. Yall wanted to govern liberally while having an R next to your name? Congrats now you’re represented by a leftist who thinks trans kids are a thing.
Weak, spineless, corrupt. Will do anything except their job. South Carolina deserves better!
Kemp is a coward.
He could have been a DeSantis who transformed GA, but he never did because he bowed to his donors.
He didn't have influence outside of his own election.
He leaves office after 8 years with a legacy of turning GA Blue because he didn't deliver on his promises.
I expect the SC senate race to be called relatively quickly for Darline Graham Nordone.
My biggest concern and frustration about this whole thing is it’s just a continuance of the establishment Graham dynasty and machine. We could have 20-25 years of her in the Senate, because as we know, once you get in in SC, you’re in. We saw how difficult (actually impossible) it was to primary Lindsey.
I just don’t want to see one family occupying a Senate seat for 40+ years.
Good riddance to @virginiafoxx and her homophobic ass.
She was nothing but a wretched crusty cunt in congress and she needs to be gone.
Never forget what she said about Matthew Shepherd.
WTF is with DoorDash? I haven’t ordered in a while and I notice there’s now a $1 service fee tacked on and an hour for delivery 3 miles away. Was no fee with DashPass a few weeks ago and I’ve noticed the delivery times are getting longer and longer. And I tipped well.
No one gives a fuck about the ballroom.
No one gives a fuck about Israel.
No one gives a fuck about renaming AI.
We give a fuck about the cost of living.
We give a fuck about feeding our families.
We give a fuck about not sending our kids to die in another overseas war.
We give a fuck about putting Americans first for once.
The @SCHouseGOP lost their supermajority tonight. It just got a lot more difficult for them to pass legislation (that their members apparently don’t read) on their own.
Don’t worry, folks. Nothing’s gonna change. It never does. The government and the corporations and the billionaires will continue to fuck you over. The wars will continue. The debt will keep rising. Inflation will continue. The parties are the same once elected.
