Anderson County Deputy Alex Albrecht exemplifies the courage, selflessness, and dedication that keeps our communities safe.
Thank you Deputy Albrecht and every first responder who wears the badge, and whose service puts the safety of their community and citizens, first.
The Republicans who withheld their support for Todd Blanche until now are the same ones who green-lit the disastrous Biden Cabinet nominees.
End the games. Confirm Todd Blanche. Keep the record-breaking drop in crime going.
BREAKING: GOP Sens. John Cornyn and Thom Tillis announce they have reached an agreement with Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche over the proposed anti-weaponization fund, clearing the way for his confirmation.
The senators had opposed Blanche over the Justice Department's anti-weaponization fund but said the DOJ has now formally ordered the program's termination.
Cornyn and Tillis said they now look forward to advancing Blanche's nomination through the Senate Judiciary Committee.
“American defense strategy depends on airpower. That has been true for decades, but the demand signal is sharper now. The United States expects its Air Force to deter China, reassure allies in Europe, defend the homeland, respond to crises in the Middle East, and remain ready for major war.”
You can read more on why our Air Force must remain a top priority in my Breaking Defense article here:

"No matter how angry people were or what they said, Senator Graham was able to move on and not hold grudges," reflects @RepSheriBiggs.

It was an honor to represent South Carolina and the House of Representatives this morning during a ceremony to show tribute to Senator Lindsey Graham below the Rotunda of the U.S. Capitol
As I said in my remarks, “in this time of mourning, we’re reminded of God’s comfort and that His plan is perfect. None of us know when it’s our time. But we’re reminded that our only eternal hope is found in our Savior.”
My full remarks recounting the life and service of Senator Lindsey Graham are provided below.
At 10:00 a.m. this morning, I will be offering remarks at the Congressional Tribute - alongside @VP JD Vance & Senate Majority Leader John Thune - to Senator Lindsey Graham in the U.S. Capitol Rotunda.
Soon thereafter, we will be joining fellow South Carolinians, friends, the Graham Family, U.S dignitaries and congressional colleagues, President Donald Trump, and world leaders at the National Cathedral for a Memorial Service, as we remember the life of Senator Lindsey Graham.
You can watch the memorials and tributes today on C-SPAN and other broadcasting networks.

🇺🇸 @POTUS is right, the @HouseGOP have led by passing the SAVE America Act time-and-time again.
It is far past time for the Senate to finally pass this important legislation to safeguard and secure our American elections.
No more excuses, send it to the President’s desk for his signature. 🖋️
Today is Korean War Veterans Day, recognizing the signing of the 1953 Korean Armistice Agreement. Let us all take a moment to remember and honor those who made tremendous sacrifices to combat the scourge of communism.
We thank those who have served and fought for freedom around the world.
The South Carolina Prayer Breakfast in Washington D.C. is a special time to reflect on God's blessings and to come together to celebrate the work being done for our great state and nation.
This morning's Prayer Breakfast was all that more special to hear the positive impact Senator Lindsey Graham had on so many and the legacy he leaves behind.
Take a moment today to prayer for our nation, for South Carolina, our veterans, our law enforcement, and President Donald J. Trump (@POTUS).
Last week, my bill - the Improving Travel for Military Members Act - unanimously passed the U.S. House.
As @Militarydotcom correctly points out, More than 1.3 million Americans currently serve on active duty, many of whom travel under deployment orders, PCS moves, or emergency assignments with little notice. Additionally, nearly 889,000 children are part of active-duty military families, marking another challenge associated with air travel.
The Improving Travel for Military Members Act is a simple, practical step to show our military families that we respect and honor their service.

Anti-ICE extremists are dangerous and have no boundaries in spreading their radical anti-law enforcement propaganda.
But I’m sure the MSM will call this “peaceful protest.” This politically motivated violence has no place in America.
Stand with ICE. Support Law and Order. Back the Blue.
NEW: The FBI says the man accused of lighting an incendiary device outside a federal building in New York City is an "anti-American, anti-government extremist."
43-year-old former U.S. Army soldier Andrew Arrabaca had anti-ICE literature on a cart with him and yelled derogatory terms at ICE as he was arrested, according to the FBI.
My heart goes out to the service members who lost their lives in the missile attack in Jordan. My prayers are with their families, their military brothers-and-sisters, and those injured as they recover. Let us pray daily for our U.S. military. May God bless them all.

As a mental health Nurse Practitioner and a member of the Air Guard, I know the struggles our troops go through.
It was touching to speak at the National Guard Association of the United States mental health symposium. I discussed my firsthand experience with treating service-related mental health issues, my advocacy for the National Guard, and how I plan to serve our nation’s oldest military force.
It was a privilege to sit down with veterans and their families in Edgefield to hear directly about the issues that matter most to them. I was also honored to visit World War II veteran Billy Prince and wish him a happy 100th birthday!
Thank you to the Edgefield Advertiser for highlighting these special moments. 🇺🇸
