“Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.” Again, this isn’t exactly great moral wisdom. Different sects keep different sabbath days, and they observe it (or not). Most importantly, this commandment certainly violates both the South Carolina and the US Constitutions.

The "Save America Act" is voter suppression dressed up as patriotism.

It targets naturalized citizens, trans Americans, tribal citizens, and natural disaster victims with extra barriers.

Don't let the name fool you.

BREAKING: Some House members are going to try to ram through the SAVE Act 2.0!

This isn't about election security—it's about disenfranchising millions of eligible voters.

They're lying to make it harder for you to vote.

While Americans struggle with real issues, Republicans are wasting time on a voter suppression bill that would block millions from voting.

They're not trying to save America—they're trying to save their power.

“Thou shalt not take the Name of the Lord thy God in vain” isn’t exactly a powerful moral stricture. This commandment is only good for certain religious people and not for any secular people. #H4762 #SC #1stAmendment

In the current legislative session (2026) in South Carolina, several bills are being considered to close the primaries, meaning that voters would register for a party and then could only vote in their own party's primary. #civics

LAW BEARS FALSE WITNESS.

Do we really want the government interpreting and modifying religious doctrine for public school students? Should the S.C. Legislature produce bills that include fabricated quotes from our nation’s founders? 1/6

The 10 Commandments have no place in public schools. “Thou shalt not make to thyself any graven images” is left out of the Catholic version of the ten commandments, so these public school ten commandments posters ostracize even Catholics.

Presidential candidates are chosen through #Primaries or #Caucuses. South Carolina’s open primary lets voters choose which party’s primary to vote in. In a one-party state, that primary is often where the election actually gets decided. #civics

The very first of the 10 commandments the South Carolina legislature proposes to post in every single public classroom is “I AM the Lord thy God. Thou shalt have no other gods before me.” It snubs so many of our children who aren't a specific variety of Christian.

National Prayer Breakfast is this morning. While lots of coverage about it will mention power of evangelicals, NPB was started by mainline Protestant politicians & preachers, as Beau Underwood & I documented in Baptizing America: bookshop.org/a/110819/978... 1/
