When I heard about Senator Graham’s death last night, the first thing I thought about was not all the things he said and did in service of Donald Trump. I thought of the time before Donald Trump when he was a brother to Senator John McCain.
A time when senators from different parties could fight about politics and still be friends. A time when a conservative Republican from South Carolina could say of my father: “If you can’t admire Joe Biden as a person, you’ve got a problem. He’s the nicest person I’ve ever met in politics. As good a man as God ever created.”
That is the Senator Graham I will remember today. Not because I have forgotten what came after. Because in that memory there is hope. Hope for a country where brothers can fight like hell over policy and still share a meal, and a laugh, and the loss of the people they love.
I will choose to remember the time before Trump. Because I believe in an America after Trump.
@GE_Appliances I’m on my THIRD dryer from you - the first two were defective upon delivery. The third has been here less than 6 months and has stopped drying. That’s what warranties are for right? Wrong it seems b/c the tech canceled the appointment and now won’t answer calls

Democrats in North Carolina filed a bill to extend the voter registration deadline and allow absentee ballots a few more days to arrive in light of the devastation wrought by the hurricane. Republicans unilaterally voted it down-- even though western NC is one the most Republican-voting portions of the state.

10 simple facts about North Carolina/Helene:
1. Biden declared a national emergency on Friday
2. Biden declared a major disaster on Saturday, which means survivors can already apply for FEMA funds
3. There are 5,000+ national guardsman in North Carolina
4. The U.S. Coast Guard, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and U.S. Health and Human Services are all working throughout the region
5. Biden spoke to Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp (R) who said he got "everything he asked for" from POTUS in Georgia.
6. Gov. Roy Cooper (D) asked Biden, Harris and Trump to stay out until rescue missions were complete for obvious reasons
7. Local groups and orgs typically lead the immediate relief efforts; the feds support with $$ and additional resources but are rarely the first to respond (again, for obvious reasons)
8. FEMA & local groups are shipping in food and supplies via truck, plane, and even freaking mules!
9. FEMA search and rescue teams are on the ground and have been for days
10. This website is full of people lying about 1-9.
