My name is Lee Johnson and I’m running for the U.S. Senate in South Carolina.
Lindsey Graham left us behind. We need honest leaders, and we need a Senator who will show up for us.

Children don't really need dolls; and let's face it, poor people don't really need healthcare, their lives aren't worth saving. Let's focus on what really matters: Tax cuts for billionaires.
Trump on China: "They made a trillion dollars with Biden selling us stuff. Much of it we don't need. Somebody said, 'oh, the shelves are gonna be open.' Well, maybe the children will have two dolls instead of 30 dolls, and maybe the two dolls will cost a couple of bucks more."

MMXXVIII = 2028 (BTW Italian Fascists used Roman numbers to count years)
Despite seeing several people I totally trust say this was real I still felt I had to verify it with my own eyes. And having done so I still can't believe it's real.

On Yom HaShoah, Holocaust Remembrance Day, we honor the memories of the six million Jews murdered for being Jewish.
As the world experiences a resurgence of antisemitism, we must renew the solemn pledge of #NeverAgain. Hate and antisemitism cannot be allowed to prevail.

Women and girls are literally under attack and the narrative that men and boys are struggling in comparison to them is part of that attack. Their “struggle” as it’s so often harped on is that women and girls aren’t just bending the knee to them in all spheres of life

One thing I wish people understood about authoritarianism is life often looks more or less the same. Troops aren’t marching down the street every day; people go to restaurants, have their office jobs. But everyone knows that stepping out of line, even slightly, can derail your life with no recourse

The great thing about fighting back against this stuff is that if you end up losing anyway you get the same outcome you’d have gotten from complying but you don’t have to fucking hate yourself too.

This. Write your name in the history books on the right side of the ledger.
Four R senators and four R House members could announce they're caucusing with the Dems for now, and will vote for Schumer for Majority Leader and Jeffries for Speaker, because the threat to the rule of law is dire. Meanwhile, they'll work with Democrats to construct guardrails against dictatorship.
