Nancy Mace’s standing in the governor’s race isn’t being shaped by polling alone, it’s being driven just as much by the controversies surrounding her. For many voters and reporters, the lawsuits paint her as “chaotic,” the airport incidents reinforce a “volatile” image, the ethics inquiries keep her “under scrutiny,” and the NYMag profile frames her as an “erratic outsider.” Put together, these narratives create a cloud that often overshadows the actual poll numbers and fuels the idea that she’s slipping, even when some polls show a different picture.

I hope I'm wrong.
But tonight feels like some sort of invisible line has been crossed that we didn't even know was there. The last time I felt like this was 9/11 when it was clear, without knowing the how and the what, that the world was about to change forever.
Like the rules of the game had been permanently altered and there was simply no going to back to the innocent, peaceful past.
I didn't feel like this when an attempt was made on President Trump's life. If I had to rationalise why I didn't, I guess it's because several US Presidents have been shot at and even assassinated. Somehow it was within the realms of the possible, no matter how awful.
But to murder a young father simply for doing debates and mobilising young people to vote for a party that represents half of America? This is something else.
Charlie's death is a tragedy for his wife, his children and his family. I don't pray often. I am praying for them tonight.
But I fear his murder will be a tragedy for all of us in ways we will only understand as time unfolds.
I hope I'm wrong.

80 percent of people in Gaza approve
of October 7 and want another one. West Bank too. They also loudly cheered when innocent hostages, dead and alive, were paraded through the streets by their captors.

My initial takeaways from tonight's elections ⬇️
1⃣ Good polling does not always translate into resounding victory. Republicans must catch up in early voting.
2⃣ It is imperative that the GOP develop a national strategy on abortion, which includes (1) exposing the extremity of the left and (2) supporting mothers.
On (2), Republicans must be pro-baby AND pro-mother. This means embracing @SenMarcoRubio's "Providing for Life Act" and now-@SpeakerJohnson's "Unborn Child Support Act" among other proposals that support women.
This strategy must be coordinated, organized, and embraced by Republicans at every tier.

Well that’s convenient - had a change of heart after future job prospects were in jeopardy.
So brave.
UPDATE:
After @townhallcom ID’d its board members, the Harvard Undergraduate Nepali Student Association has withdrawn its signature from the pro-Hamas letter

To be clear on what is happening: Matt Gaetz and a handful of so-called GOP conservatives are about to join with Democrats to torpedo the GOP and undermine the very goals they claim to believe in. Emphasis on "claim." This is about headlines, donations, and their own elections. It's not about principle.

Biden is just a front man. Obama, April 21: social media censors “don’t go far enough,” so the government needs to step in to do the job. Six days later, Homeland Security rolls out the 'Ministry of Truth' (aka Disinformation Governance Board).

In case you missed it, the Arlington school shooter was released on bail back into society— almost immediately.
Meanwhile, there are still people rotting in prison because they quite literally walked into around the Capitol building.

“An Afghani interpreter I have come to know well over the years was hung in the streets last night. They melted his DoD ID into his chest. Cut off his arms. And killed his family.
His 10 year old daughter was spared and handed off to leadership.”

Making Washington, D.C. a state requires a constitutional amendment and requires overturning the 23rd Amendment, not a mere statute like H.R. 51. The Democrats’ blatant disregard for the Constitution is on full display for the American people to see.

“I’m a Latina, and I finally have a voice that I don’t have to be a Democrat!” Gina told me.
“Latinos, by nature, we’re conservative... We believe in family, God, religion & @realDonaldTrump offers all of that!”

This is ABC News chief political analyst @MatthewJDowd being a sexist pig toward Republican Congresswoman @EliseStefanik. His Epstein cover-up bosses at @ABC and their defenders on the CNN Media Team in Darcy and Stelter won't raise hell about this b/c they probably all agree

It is beyond revolting that Beto O’Rourke immediately blamed President Trump for the weekend murders. O’Rourke is pretty much finished after looking foolish during the presidential debates, and now he’s using a catastrophe for political advantage. Low doesn’t even come close.

Consideration is being given to declaring ANTIFA, the gutless Radical Left Wack Jobs who go around hitting (only non-fighters) people over the heads with baseball bats, a major Organization of Terror (along with MS-13 & others). Would make it easier for police to do their job!

Joe Biden’s education agenda is the most liberal in presidential history, says @RickHess, but compared to other Democratic candidates, it looks centrist — even modest. ednxt.co/2ZV9dx6
