“In this chamber, we hear a lot about ‘we support veterans, we support small businesses, we support adults making adult decisions and individual freedoms,’ ” Sen. Ed Sutton, D-Charleston told The Post and Courier, adding, but “when it comes down to votes, we see something totally different.”

After Senators debated for days on how to move forward they passed bill regulating hemp out of the chamber. Some still aren’t happy with the final product. postandcourier.com/politics/senat…

Sen. Ed Sutton (@EdCSutton) has been concerned about the recent lack of Lowcountry representation on the Authority, and asks where he lives.
"I'm about a par-5 from the Wando terminal," Limehouse says.

I served in Iraq and Afghanistan, and this looks familiar with new branding, shifting excuses, and the same bad math.
Iran is led by an evil regime with American blood on its hands. I am thankful Khamenei is no more. Yet what comes next may be worse and the American people do not support another endless war in the Middle East. This administration has yet to explain a clear mission, cost, or endgame.
Why should more American sons and daughters be sacrificed to this region?
South Carolina Democratic Party@scdp
State Senator Ed Sutton, a veteran, is asking an important question about the war with Iran: How is this any different than what we’ve seen before? Americans deserve real answers before we let history repeat itself. #SCPol @EdCSutton

As a former KC-135R pilot, this tragedy really hits close. By the looks of this photo, we almost lost lost two aircraft and crews. The aircrew did a fantastic job getting this one back on the ground safely. May the Warriors of the fallen KC-135 RIP, praying for their family and friends.

Same for the C-17.
Some idiot ran the math on how much gas could be saved by removing the parachutes. Parachutes were reduced from 5 to 2. Not enough for the entire crew.
Adam Kinzinger (Slava Ukraini) 🇺🇸🇺🇦@AdamKinzinger
About 15 years ago, someone got promoted suggesting that the parachutes on the KC135 wasted space. They were removed. Dumb stupid idea then. Could they have saved this crew? Who knows. But would be nice to have the option.

Aerial refueling is not for the faint of heart.
Lots of training required to master these procedures.
Air Power@RealAirPower1
A USAF KC-135 has crashed over Iraq, possibly after a mid air collision. Aerial refueling has its perils. Pilots and crew make it look easy, but it is anything but. When things go wrong, the consequences can be catastrophic. Here is a clip from a few years back showing a near miss. Hair raising stuff!
English
Gut wrenching.
Unfortunately, I don't believe there's ever been a successful bailout from a KC-135.
Nickel in the grass, for these brave Airmen flying in harms way.
OSINTdefender@sentdefender
U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) has announced the loss of a KC-135 "Stratotanker" over Iraq after an incident with another aircraft that landed safely. Rescue efforts are ongoing. CENTCOM states this was not due to friendly or hostile fire.

Most Americans are too busy for social media, too normal for politics, too rational to tweet. They work, raise kids, coach Little League — and never post a word about any of it.
This isn't a small minority. It's a monstrous, if silent, majority. axios.com/2026/03/11/ame…

I'm back at Day 2 of @ThirdWayTweet's "Winning the Middle," where right now ex-GOP Rep/current Dem @WalshFreedom says Democrats need a 2028 tone shift:
“Democrats come across as like professors, academics, elites — I mean, my God, rip off your freaking sport coat & talk to me."

We just felt a small earthquake while in the Senate. No damage. Quick shaking of the building. Wild.

The legislation has brought about a rare moment of cooperation between anti-abortion and women’s rights groups in the Palmetto State. “Can we just send this straight to the governor’s desk?” joked Senator Ed Sutton (D-Charleston).

A native son of South Carolina, and an icon of the civil rights movement, the Reverend Jesse Jackson was a prominent voice in our nation’s political and cultural dialogue. Peggy and I are saddened to learn of his passing. At the appropriate time, I will direct the flags over the Capitol to be lowered to honor his legacy and memory.
