These numbers are terrifying. Richland County has the highest number of participants for SNAP benefits and could see 49,277 lose them. We need our government to work for us and not starve us!
I just want a government that works … due to the federal government shutdown, 9,659 people in Pickens County & 266,000 people in the state may suddenly be without their SNAP food credits in November. That’s 7% of our neighbors in this county, probably around 5,000 are children. I know if the federal government shutdown stretches into November, our churches & community will try to fill the gap … but gaps will exist, children will be hungry, & all of it a creation by politicians unable to govern. I don’t care which party to blame. I’m part of the segment that doesn’t care about the political theater until it negatively impacts our community. dss.sc.gov/news/alert-scdss-…

Jasmine Crockett isn’t low IQ She’s a brilliant attorney who has a very low tolerance for mediocre white men who believe hurling racist insults at Black Women is a feat of strength. We stand with Jasmine.

There is an assault on the free speech of many Black Americans who have expressed disagreement with Charlie Kirk's views. Professionals at Clemson and Winthrop have been fired and HBCUs have seen increasing threats. @GrantForSC and I discuss the stakes.

Students and families should not live in fear while receiving an education, seeking medical care, or simply living their daily lives. California is making sure schools and hospitals remain what they should be: places of care, not chaos.

A South Carolina, Republican judge has been arrested for possession of CSAM. A flash drive was found that had sexually explicit photos & videos of minors, including infants & toddlers. Sick fuck. Meet Judge James B. Gosnell Jr.

I am proud to be born a Muslim. I am proud to be born in Somalia. I am proud to have become an American. None of you can change that no matter how much you rage tweet. Drink some water and touch grass.

Border Czar Tom Homan was caught by the FBI accepting bribes - on camera - to deliver government contracts in exchange for $50,000 in cash. Pam Bondi knew. Kash Patel knew. Emil Bove knew. And they made the investigation go away. A corrupt attempt to conceal brazen graft.

UPDATE: Democrats just put a bill on the floor to save health care. Republicans voted to shut down the government and keep up the health care crisis THEY created. We're not giving up on this.

Freedom is not about saying nice things or agreeing with those in power. It is not flattering the President of the United States. It is the right to express your point of view without government interference. We must not allow anybody to take that freedom away from us.

We should be clear about who Charlie Kirk was: a man who believed that the Civil Rights Act that granted Black Americans the right to vote was a “mistake,” who after the violent attack on Paul Pelosi claimed that “some amazing patriot out there” should bail out his assailant, and accused Jews of controlling “not just the colleges – it’s the nonprofits, it’s the movies, it’s Hollywood, it’s all of it.” His rhetoric and beliefs were ignorant and sought to disenfranchise millions of Americans – far from “working tirelessly to promote unity” as asserted by the majority in this resolution.” We can condemn his horrific assassination and the scourge of political violence without uplifting these ideas.
.@RepAOC @AOC on House-passed resolution honoring the life and legacy of Charlie Kirk: "Instead of uniting Congress in this tragedy with one of the many bipartisan options to condemn political violence and Kirk's murder, as we did with the late Melissa Hortman, instead the majority proceeded with a resolution that brings great pain to the millions of Americans who endured segregation, Jim Crow and the legacy of bigotry today."

We literally have a President who is more focused on firing Jimmy Kimmel than trying to make your prices at the grocery store go down.   His Administration is rolling back your freedom of speech, policing what you say on TV, and ignoring the real challenges people are facing every day.
