This campaign is bigger than party — it's about who will represent for the people of South Carolina and not the political class in Washington, DC. I'm grateful to have the support of the Norman family.

This is what putting South Carolina first looks like.
I’m honored to have the support of two former governors — Republican David Beasley and Democrat Jim Hodges.
We may not agree on everything, but we share a belief that matters most: South Carolina deserves leaders who will always put its people first.

Elon Musk has spent more money on American elections in the last two years than George Soros has in his entire life.

Republican campaigns and political action committees have spent nearly $3 million at President Trump’s businesses since he returned to office.
And spending at Mar-a-Lago has tripled compared to Trump's first term.
This is clear profiteering. washingtonpost.com/politics/…

“This is just a ‘batten down the hatches’ situation,” one GOP operative involved in House races told CNN, noting they have not seen an incumbent in a competitive district crack the 50% threshold in any recent internal polling.

NEW: I obtained the full Trumbull County file for Amy Acton's stepfather's 1974 charge which shows that he was indicted for incest involving his 16-year-old biological daughter in 1973. The sheriff was then unable to locate him to serve him a summons in the county and nothing further happened in the case.
Donna Arthur, featured in Vivek Ramaswamy's still-running campaign ad, married Cledith the next year in a neighboring county.

In April, NRCC called it a “political hallucination” to think Ager could win.
That was before Rep. Chuck Edwards faced sexual harassment allegations.
But also, @MadsSinclair told me: ““Every day that goes by, voters sour more and more on this failed Republican agenda.”
House Majority PAC pulling money out of #NC11, where I'm told they feel good about Democrat Jamie Ager's chances over Republican Jennifer Balkcom.

Update: a source tells me that HMP has now also cut its ads in NC-11.
Both parties signaling they think the district is going to flip next week. (Both parties can also be wrong, as had happened a few times in the recent past)
NEW: Republicans are increasingly worried that NC-11 - a district Trump won by nearly 10 - is already lost.
Said a NC GOP operative: "The rating in the 11th District should be likely Democrat, not lean Democrat.”
Sign of how deep the Dem wave could go

Filling up a Ford F-150 truck now costs about $100, up $30 from a year ago. Mortgage rates have jumped to levels that have depressed home sales. And for the past 12 months, consumer prices have risen faster than paychecks, making the average family poorer. abcnews.link/lZflzAb
