Dragging my daughter into your grotesque political fearmongering is disgraceful. You can't predict November 3, and a write-in isn't a vote for Andrews. Electoral risks deserve debate, not intimidation. My family is NOT your political prop. My vote is NOT your property.

It's not just about Ralph Norman or sour grapes. It's about an establishment in a red state that governs purple. It's a cabal that blocks redistricting. It's an establishment that colludes with Democrats. It's a state tax surplus that goes unchecked
November 3 isn't the end game

South Carolina families deserve a government that respects their hard-earned tax dollars.
On Day One, we'll get to work rooting out waste through our Families First Audit Initiative. Then we'll keep fighting to eliminate the state income tax, cut property taxes, and make life more affordable for hardworking South Carolinians.

Got a question for you Mr. Dunlap. Did you ever serve in the military? I did for 25 years Active Duty in the Army from the Section, Platoon, Company, Battery, Battalion, Division, to Corps Level. I respect the Generals service. However, looks like he got called on the carpet for leaking classified info to the press and according to reports, being insubordinate and a shitbird/dickhead. The back story will come out eventually, it always does. Bet he has a AR 15-6 investigation crawling up his fourth point of contact (his ass). If true, it sucks to be him, he may end up in prison (Fort Leavenworth) if the allegation are true. You mention a replacement not being named. There is always a deputy and six dudes and ladies waiting in line to take his slot, the bench is deep. Also, he's a staff officer, he doesn't wear green tabs now and home-slice is not in the food chain (Chain of Command). He's a facilitator and advisor with no command authority or command responsibility. He's a overpaid staff officer that a solid LTC could probably do. His job is to support the Combatant Commander(s) who receive a mission and facilitates the task and purpose with mission requirement assets, coordination, and beans and bullets to make the plan come to fruition to complete the mission. In this situation, U.S. CENTCOM is doing the planning, they are the Combatant Command and wear the green tabs. Sometimes the troops in big suits get out over their head and have political agendas, get a case of the dumb ass, believe their own press their/egos. I remember Major General Swannick when we got back from Iraq in 2004. He was the Commanding General of the 82d Airborne Division. He was fast tracking. Dude was in the club and would have probably been the Commander of 18th Airborne Corps. Then low and behold, his wife went to the Corps Commander and told him he was having affair, that's a no go in Army, punishable by the UCMJ, adultery. It turned out to be true, he got his as canned on the spot and put out to pasture. I always thought he was dick anyway. I briefed him a few times and he always chewed my ass out for no reason and sharp shooted me for no freaking reason. This dude is a Three Star General. Meaning a 4 General will be conducting the investigation (AR 15-6), probably from a different service. I also heard the case is being referred to the DOJ/FBI, this is a soup sandwich and a very ugly baby. That doesn't happen unless there is some smoke and probable cause. In conclusion, all military officers are given a commission from the POTUS. Meaning, they serve at the pleasure of their Commanding Officer(s), SECWAR, and the President, it's in the Oath. They can hire and fire at their behest when they think its warranted and they lose faith and confidence in them, just like in the civilian sector. To be honest, I think the General Officer Population in the Army is a violation of AR-609, meaning, it's fat as fuck and there is a lot of dead weight with folks who should have got their pink slips long ago. Have a good night. Later, Bill H.
US Army Lt. Gen. Brett Sylvia, the Joint Staff’s director for strategy, plans, and policy, also known as the J5 director, was removed from his post earlier this week, according to reporting by The Atlantic.
No official reason has been given for the firing. His biography has already been taken down from the Joint Staff’s public website. A Joint Staff spokesperson thanked Sylvia and his family for 32 years of distinguished service and wished them well in their next chapter, but offered no further explanation.
Unnamed defense officials told The Atlantic that Secretary of War Pete Hegseth had lost confidence in Sylvia and that the general did not get along with Under Secretary Elbridge Colby, the senior civilian overseeing policy. Sylvia is the second J5 director pushed out in roughly the past year; his predecessor, Lt. Gen. Joseph McGee, was also forced out.
The J5 is the Joint Staff’s strategy and plans directorate. In broad terms, it turns presidential and civilian guidance into military plans and options, while serving as a key link among the combatant commands, the Pentagon’s civilian leadership, and the White House. The timing of the removal has drawn attention because it leaves the position vacant at a moment when the administration is reportedly considering options for renewed strikes related to the ongoing conflict with Iran.
Sylvia, a former commander of the 101st Airborne Division, is the latest in a series of senior officers who have been removed, forced to retire, or otherwise departed under Hegseth’s tenure at the Pentagon. No immediate replacement has been named.

Correct. November 3 is the kickoff. There’s a whole game to play ahead of us.

If a 25-year-old in 2024 had every incentive to vote Republican… as so many did…
That 27-year-old today has every incentive to NOT vote Republican.
And it is 100% the fault of Republicans, who controlled every branch of government and broke every promise inside of 2 years.
Rusty May retweeted
Oh please, y'all.
The Graham machine is running the same polling head-fake on South Carolina voters it did in 2020, and it's brilliant.
In 2020, knowing how unpopular Lindsey was, they clearly feared Republicans would simply skip the race and vote down ballot, for good reason.
So we were bombarded with fake polls showing Democrat Jamie Harrison neck and neck with Lindsey. Republicans who normally couldn't stand Graham panic voted for him, giving him a 10 POINT WIN, enough political cushion to free Graham up to go back to attacking Trump and colluding with the Democrats.
The head fake was so good, Democrats even fell for it and hilariously blew $130 MILLION on the race, again, only to lose by 10 points.
But the truth was always that South Carolina is such a red state that Lindsey, and now Darline, was never going to lose.
Once safely elected, the liberal SCGOP machine Graham controlled spent the next years on a reign of terror, purging conservatives and actual Republicans from the legislature in favor of fake "Republican" candidates who would run as Democrats in other states.
Will Darline Graham preside over a similar purge in coming years, or is she different from her brother? No one knows.
But it's why there is such lingering animosity that Ralph Norman won't bury the hatchet. There's years of history here. The point of the fake polls is to build the double-digit win so they'e not hamstrung by a tight margin.
Would I sit out the race? No. Annie Andrews is a worse nightmare. But the hysteria they have y'all whipped into is laugh-out-loud funny.
Check out the fake Graham polls from 2020. You'll see the same pattern. Pollsters didn't start telling the truth until the day of the vote. They look exactly the same as today. Again, Graham eventually won by 10:

Pressured to come off the sidelines and campaign on behalf of @DarlineGrahamSC (Nordone), @RalphNorman goes off!
The outgoing fifth district congressman says he will NOT cave to the "Republican" establishment - calling Nordone a "fake" and a "fraud."
Our @TheWillFolks with the report...

Clocks go back to Standard Time, making it light at 7am again. This is a blessing for kids and adults who have school and work. Holler for permanent Standard Time. Ditch Daylight Saving Time!
Clocks will go back on Nov 1 making it dark at 430 pm. This is a travesty for kids & adults no longer able to do any outside activities until we get back to daylight Savings Time in Spring. All because the RINO's in the Senate wont pass the DST bill!! This is how the cabal wins keeping us in the dark LITERALLY.
You all need to holler about this on X in the upcoming days
. Let's see who'll post about it
Lets see who'll VOTE tomorrow all R so we can pass the make DST permanent bill ASAP
YOUR VOTE MATTERS
Rusty May retweeted
NO! The bill is backward. Permanent Daylight Saving Time is worse than clock changes. AMEND it to permanent Standard Time!
🚨 UPDATE: President Trump is LIVID that the US Senate is refusing to vote to make permanent Daylight Saving Time
"The United States Senate is letting the Daylight Saving Bill die, when a vast Majority of the Country want it. Most people are demanding light in the evening, but ALL want not to change their clocks anymore. TAKE A VOTE!"
"As stated in The New York Post, 'Lawmakers in Washington have tried to kill the clock change for good, and this summer the House overwhelmingly passed the Sunshine Protection Act, 308-117, which would make Daylight Saving Time permanent year-round. That bill, however, remains locked in the Senate, meaning Daylight Saving Time will end as regularly scheduled to the disappointment of many Americans.'"
Because the Senate recessed until after the November 3 midterms without acting, Americans will be forced to turn their clocks back an hour yet again this Sunday, November 1!
Put it on the floor and pass it!

Beasley just wrote an op-ed saying he’s no longer a Republican.
Congrats on getting 2 Democrats to endorse you.
But that’s not news.
Rusty May retweeted
Hey Liz — I realize you’re a paid congressional staffer for Timmons, but blaming Ralph Norman, his family, or his voters won’t fix Darline Graham’s campaign problems.
At some point, she has to take responsibility for her own campaign.
Rusty May retweeted
CLOSE. THE. PRIMARIES. SC!!!
I’m sitting here watching everyone panic about Texas and all I can think is that all of this speculation, dooming, and paranoia wouldn’t exist if the state GOP would simply close the primaries and register by party.
You don’t have this panic and confusion over Florida, even though Dems are still putting up a fight. Because everyone knows this week is the week their hopes die on the vine there, every year.

Laken Riley had a Garmin smartwatch on when she was attacked
Her heart rate jumped to 170 bpm which told investigators that was when she was being attacked
It lasted for 17 minutes then suddenly stopped - that's when the animal finally killed her
So the next time you want to tell me about how unfair illegal immigrants are being treated I want you to set a timer for 17 minutes and watch it go by so you can understand how long that young woman fought for her life
