Make no mistake, Trey knows his extended dabbles with the corrupt former #SpartanburgCounty Sheriff Chuck Wright from his stint as solicitor, even recently being on Chuck's legal defense, will jeopardize any Senate ambition. Regardless of his bestie, Tim Scott wants. #SCpol

A trail of destruction. Imagine their reaction if Obama had done even one of these things.

Found an imaginary problem, said only they could fix it, didn’t listen to experts, hired buddies who grifted millions, failed miserably, bragged how great it went.

The entire Trump presidency in a nutshell.

Beginning on May 15, a culvert replacement project will require a full closure of Hampton Rd (at 1821 Hampton Rd) to through traffic.

The closure may be in place for up to 4 months, depending on weather.

The fact that almost EVERY former confederate state is moving to completely eliminate Black representatives almost immediately after the SCOTUS decision should be more than enough proof that voting rights still need protection and racism is far from gone in this country.

I wrote about Eric Swalwell, why he's been abandoned so quickly, why a political class that surely knew about his antics didn't do anything about it and continued to support him, and what that says about accountability in America.

the upset nature of Mamdani’s win that was so inspiring...who was polling at 1%.

“He was counted out,” said McClain. “And being a young Black woman in the South, in a district that has been red for over 30 years, a lot of people are also counting us out here.” #ElevateTheUpstate

[Young Democrats of Spartanburg County @YDSPC864]

Like @ZohranKMamdani, Courtney McClain (https://t.co/F9MSS4pB2G), a 24-year-old running to unseat Rep. William Timmons in a deep-red #SouthCarolina district, hopes to strengthen voter turnout who campaign boosted voter registration and turnout. #SCpol https://t.co/SzfzsDBpBW

[Young Democrats of Spartanburg County @YDSPC864]

“I want to tackle rural areas and knock on doors and speak to people who have never been spoken to before,” McClain said, adding that she plans on meeting voters “where they’re at” so she can build a campaign where “organized people beat organized money.” #McClainForSC #VoteRural
