@boltsfood I saw one of these in Breezy Point

@amyklobuchar That’s some posture.

[Ben Anderson @benand3rson]

Lesson on hubris.

[Russell Fry @RussellFrySC]

While tonight we ran out of runway, we are incredibly proud of everything this campaign accomplished and every single South Carolinian who believed in our mission fighting for families. In three weeks we formed a campaign, raised over $1 million, held over 30 events, crisscrossed this great state and fought for every single vote. We have absolutely no regrets.

Tonight the great voters of South Carolina have spoken and we want to congratulate both Darline Graham and Ralph Norman on advancing to the runoff.

To Bronwen, James and my entire family — thank you. This was an insane three week sprint and you never wavered. Not once. I could not have done any of this without you and I love you more than words can say.

And to my campaign team, every volunteer, every donor and every supporter who knocked a door, made a call, sent a text and believed in our fight for South Carolina's future — THANK YOU. From the bottom of my heart. You gave everything and I will never forget it and never stop fighting for South Carolina's future.

God bless you, God bless South Carolina and God bless the United States of America.

We’re at a point in U.S. politics that a senate candidate from South Carolina thinks it’s necessary to tell voters that she can cut grass & use a weedeater…

What the fuck is happening in SC?

[Darline Graham @DarlineGrahamSC]

I’m a mother, a grandmother, and a wife.

I know how to bargain shop. I look for the buy one, get one free deals, and the shoes I’m wearing around the U.S. Capitol came from the clearance rack.

I cut my own grass with a push mower, and yes, I know how to use a weedeater.

Lindsey was an expert on the federal budget. I’m an expert on the family budget.

Tonight, I look forward to sharing my vision for South Carolina with you.

@ChaitaliSuraj @Clevy_Law I’m aware of several law professors who teach some version of trial advocacy, and they’re all Ivy League law alumni who went straight into academia. None of them have done so much as conduct voir dire.

What’re we doing??

[Ben Anderson @benand3rson]

@chemdawgrei The story claims they arrived to an ER dept ten minutes away from their home (where she was bit). Why are they even bothering with 911??

@MeghanMcCain Meghan, can you go one day without thinking the whole world needs to hear from you?

[Ben Anderson @benand3rson]

@SethAMandel Good one!!!

[Ben Anderson @benand3rson]

@RickyTheGuido Buddy, you need to actually know something about state elections & state constitutions. Screaming at the damn clouds.

[Ben Anderson @benand3rson]

@BubbaAtkinson God this election cycle was so incredible. I miss those days, everything seemed so much lighter.

[Ben Anderson @benand3rson]

I feel so vindicated. These two shows were in my top five that I’ve been recommending to folks consistently throughout the year.

Matthew Rhys gives two performances that are unmatched with most modern television/streaming shows. Great writing & fantastic acting.

[tori @dietcokestan]

[Ben Anderson @benand3rson]

@PamthePuppet Tom Mullikin is an Israel puppet lmao

[Ben Anderson @benand3rson]

Not a bad move.

Defense attorneys for Luigi Mangione plan to argue he was suffering from “extreme emotional disturbance" when he allegedly killed UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, a state judge revealed. https://t.co/TSNwKgIdm6

@cjwestfall Didn’t Alan Wilson not just consistently oppose but fought significantly against efforts to legalize medical cannabis for well over a decade? Compassionate Care Act??

@RezLiza @cadlymack Are you not aware of the other events hosted at MSG? 😂

[Ben Anderson @benand3rson]

Yall are exhausting.

In Tennessee, we recognize June as Nuclear Family Month.

God was clear about His design for humanity, and I’m grateful to live in a state that celebrates and supports that foundation.

TIM DILLON on the Thomas Massie election:

"I don't know how you run a country where people can just dump $32 million into a race"

"What it's showing you is that if you spend enough money, you can just create any reality you want"

"No one knows who the hell the other guy is"

"This guy [Massie] who's like, 'Release the Epstein Files. Hold people accountable. Prosecute pedophiles. Get out of foreign wars,' that guy loses to a guy who's like, 'Let's cover up the Epstein Files, let's not prosecute pedophiles, let's go to war, with your kids'"

"You would think just platform to platform that's a tough sell"

"[Gallrein] was just handpicked. Came out of nowhere"

"[He] was like, we gotta get kids back into the military. We gotta get them to Iran. Now. Now, you would think that's probably not a super popular idea—let's bring back the draft"

"However, if you spend enough money in American politics, you can create any reality you want"

@alexbruesewitz @tedcruz Holy shit, you’re all so fucking weird. Can we please for the love of Christ put some adults in the room.
