Pete Hegseth fired her. Now she's running for Congress.

Nancy Lacore, a retired three-star Navy vice admiral, has advanced to a June 23 Democratic primary runoff in South Carolina's 1st District - the House seat Rep. Nancy Mace is vacating to run for governor. Lacore was abruptly dismissed by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth last August, part of a wave of senior military removals on Aug. 22, 2025. She has called her firing "without cause."

To be clear about where this stands: Lacore hasn't won anything yet. She's headed to a runoff against attorney Mac Deford on June 23 to decide who becomes the Democratic nominee. The winner of that contest moves on to November for a long-shot run at the seat - which the Cook Political Report rates as solidly Republican.

But the storyline writing itself is hard to miss. A career officer pushed out by the sitting Defense Secretary is now asking voters to send her to Washington, where she'd have a say over the very Pentagon that showed her the door.

Her campaign leans directly into that history - framing the dismissal as exactly the kind of accountability gap she wants to challenge from inside Congress. Mace, meanwhile, is stepping up to a statewide race, leaving one of the most Republican-leaning seats in the state suddenly without an incumbent.

It's an uphill climb in a district drawn to stay red. But a fired admiral on the ballot is the kind of race that makes people pay attention.

DON'T FORGET ABOUT JOYCE

Rep. Joyce Beatty was the only Kennedy Center board member who tried to stop Trump's rebranding of the arts center. She then challenged the move in court, and won her case.

She is the reason Trump's name came down!

Thank you Joyce !!!

Yes, I support it 100%!!!!

The administration says we can afford $70 billion more for ICE and Border Patrol. So why can't we afford to process work applications for DACA recipients? Or a path to citizenship?

Here's the thing: of course we can.

If Martha Stewart can serve 5 months in prison for insider trading - Eric Trump can serve 5 months in prison for insider trading.

He fucked up launching this illegal war. It was always gonna end with him lying and claiming “victory.” It ain’t no victory. We lost. America lost. Trump is a loser. Everything Trump does makes America weaker and worse off.

BREAKING: In a SCATHING statement, Major General (Ret.) Paul Eaton just called out Donald Trump's War In Iran for what it is: a complete and utter FAILURE.

The Justice Department is not a tool for the President to investigate his political opponents.

Welcome to the BS investigations club, Governor Newsom. You’re in good company.

Trump’s administration has barred the IRS from even looking at his past returns.

Teachers, nurses, and firefighters all pay what they owe.

Why does the President of the United States get a special tax deal?

Sheryl Crow speaks out after Trump’s UFC 250 event: “To stay quiet means to turn a blind eye. And so I am saying this. What happened last night on the lawn of the White House was disgraceful and void of decency. Powerful, rich people filled the lawn to watch a violent sport that ended with a vile and racist comment. All while the average American cannot afford healthcare, gas, and cost of living. Do not be fooled. This administration is corrupt and does not give a damn about the American people. It only cares about making money hand over fist at the expense and in spite of our democracy. If we continue to support this kind of distraction from reality, we are no better than them. Let's be better, America.”

Michelle and Barack Obama have more class, decency, and integrity than the entire Trump family.

The morning news won’t tell you this: 6 Articles of Impeachment were filed against John Roberts for gross financial conflicts. No one is above the law. Take 60 seconds while you have your coffee to demand your reps hold him accountable. Act here:

So, Trump is gonna give Iran $300 billion to open a strait that wasn’t closed, so long as they promise not build a nuke they didn’t have?

Do I have that just about right?
