Alright, alright, alright...we'll do it. Who better to host this debate than the only liberal, independently-produced, millennial-hosted podcast in SC?

@JoeCunninghamSC @MiaforSC -- you in? We'll stream it online and let folks come in person.

South Carolinians deserve an open exchange of ideas. We welcome a fair debate, not one directly organized by individuals on my opponent’s payroll. Integrity and honesty matter—if there are any objective groups that would like to organize a debate, we’re in.

Although ⁦@SCGOP⁩ ⁦@scsenategop⁩ ⁦@SCHouseGOP⁩ ⁦@henrymcmaster⁩ made an abortion bill SC’s #1 priority during a deadly pandemic, it passed.

Yet, unmasked anti-abortion protesters fill the lobby today while folks across SC are “dying” for real leadership.

Today is March 31.

That means COVID-19 eligibility officially opens up for all South Carolinians ages 16 and older.

Has anyone put the curb your enthusiasm music behind this yet?

Unfortunately he’d take that as a compliment.

Nancy Mace is one of our worst exports, right up there with the Confederacy and Lindsey Graham.

Rep. Nancy Mace votes against stimulus package for second time https://t.co/DQknS4Cehs

[Podmetto Politics @podmetto]

Not surprising, but still disgusting.

Notably, @WhipClyburn is the only member of South Carolina’s delegation to vote for the COVID-19 relief package. Not a single Republican in the House or Senate voted for the $1.9 trillion plan. #scpol

I think Lindsey Graham will do whatever it takes to stay in office because he has nowhere else to go.

[Mia McLeod @MiaSMcLeod]

Just finished a segment ⁦@MSNBC⁩ on a SC death penalty bill that allows state-sanctioned deaths by electrocution & firing squad.

Given our history, the irreversibility of that scares me. SC has executed 282 people since 1912...208 of them were black.

They're getting away with it too.

Just pointless, unfunny slop.

That’s why we can’t roll back protections like Texas and Mississippi. We were never protected.

*whispers* South Carolina never had a statewide mask mandate
