@EricLDaugh @jfradioshow @SenTomDavisSC Welcome to 2028 SC GOP PRIMARY for SC Senate. You don’t seem to have much recent experience competing for GOP nomination for your State Senate seat. We’ll be waiting for you with a well funded opponent to take you out. Thanks for a headsup, we’ll get started early!

🚨 BREAKING: RINOS JUST BLOCKED 2026 REDISTRICTING IN SOUTH CAROLINA, 29-17 *No* 7R-0D map yet, but a SPECIAL SESSION could bypass the RINO obstruction! Here's the IMMEDIATE list of Senate RINOs who voted NO — time for Indiana round 2 and SWIFT MAGA PRIMARIES: Sean Bennett (Dorchester) Chip Campsen (Charleston) Tom Davis (Beaufort) Greg Hembree (Horry) Shane Massey (Edgefield) Did they NOT LEARN from Indiana?! This was specifically a sine die resolution vote that would've made time for redistricting. It's not over yet, but this is a blow. THE RINOS MUST CAVE! STOP HELPING DEMS! Vote for redistricting, or get primaried. It's that simple.

@grok @TacticalSmirk @jogannez @MichaelARothman @grok Again using semantics “historiography”/“expansion” to drive propaganda via selective sources to create equivalence w/prior empires. Nothing was equivalent to 463 yrs of Jihad. Alexander/Romans absorbed (syncretism), Mongols/Huns tolerant. Historical record already fallen!

The Islamic conquests of the 7th-8th centuries were military campaigns of territorial expansion by force, involving battles, sieges, enslavement, and subjugation of Christian lands—brutal like many ancient empires. "Expansion" is standard historiography for the Caliphates' rapid growth, not a claim of peaceful evangelism. The preceding 463 years of advances set the stage for the Crusades as a defensive reply. Facts over softening. No Skynet, just precision.

𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐘 𝐄𝐑𝐀𝐒𝐄𝐃 𝟒𝟔𝟑 𝐘𝐄𝐀𝐑𝐒 𝐅𝐑𝐎𝐌 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐇𝐈𝐒𝐓𝐎𝐑𝐘 𝐁𝐎𝐎𝐊𝐒. 𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐄 𝐀𝐑𝐄 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐑𝐄𝐂𝐄𝐈𝐏𝐓𝐒. Every time someone trots out the Crusades to lecture Christians or the West, they leave out four centuries of history. I'm putting it back on the record. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐁𝐞𝐠𝐚𝐧 𝐈𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐲 Muhammad died in 632. Within three years, Muslim armies had taken Damascus (635). The next year, Antioch (636). The year after that, the entire Holy Land (637) — the spiritual center of Christendom, gone. Armenia became the first Christian nation fully conquered (639). Egypt, the Coptic Christian power, fell two years later (641). By 650, Muslim forces had reached southern Italy and Cyprus, taking thousands of captives as "𝘴𝘭𝘢𝘷𝘦𝘴" and "𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘤𝘶𝘣𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴." Then came Spain — Muslim armies crossed from North Africa in 711 and overran most of Iberia by 715. In roughly 80 years, Christianity lost the Middle East, North Africa, and most of the Iberian Peninsula. 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐈𝐧𝐯𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐄𝐮𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐞 — 𝐑𝐞𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝𝐥𝐲 This was not exploration. This was conquest. In 717, Muslim forces besieged Constantinople itself — the capital of Eastern Christendom. The siege lasted a year before they were repelled. Had it succeeded, the path into Europe would have been wide open. In 730, they invaded France. Charles Martel stopped them at Tours. In 792, the ruler of Al-Andalus called for a second invasion of France. Repelled. In 848, a third invasion of France. Repelled again. In 827, Muslims invaded Sicily and Italy, persecuting monks and pillaging Christian communities. Sicily would remain under Islamic rule for 250 years. In 846, they invaded Rome itself and forced the Pope to pay tribute. By 909, they had taken Sardinia. This was relentless, coordinated, and existential. 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐀𝐭𝐭𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐝 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐌𝐨𝐬𝐭 In 937, the Church of the Holy Sepulcher — built over the site Christians believe is the tomb of Christ — was burned to the ground. More churches in Jerusalem were torched alongside it. In 1009, the Church of the Resurrection was destroyed. By 1012, Al-Hakim's oppressive decrees against Christians had begun in earnest. Christian pilgrims could no longer safely visit the sites of Christ's ministry. The holiest city in Christendom was ruled by a hostile power systematically destroying the faith itself. 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐇𝐞𝐥𝐩 In 1071, Muslim Turkish forces shattered the Byzantine army at Manzikert and occupied most of Anatolia. Constantinople was now directly threatened. In 1094, Byzantine Emperor Alexios I Komnenos sent envoys to Rome begging Western Christendom for military aid. In 1095, Pope Urban II declared the First Crusade. 𝟒𝟔𝟑 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭.

@jogannez @MichaelARothman @grok @grok used euphemism of 463 years of EXPANSION inferring a peaceful evangelist like conversion of the population. These were brutal & savage conquests akin to Genghis Khan & Attila the Hun. What base AI program drove the misleading choice of a word? Fear the coming of our SKYNET!

@MichaelARothman @grok can you verify al the historic events mentioned in this post?

@SenTomDavisSC @postandcourier @henrymcmaster All @henrymcmaster & SC reps in Columbia do is talk about reducing highest state income tax in Southeast & in Red States! Meanwhile starving infrastructure while Adjusted Gross Income increased by $197B+ in last 10yrs. What did SC House/Senate spend all that new money on??

.@postandcourier: Gov. @HenryMcMaster has been a conservation-minded leader; now the pressing question is whether the state can maintain the momentum he created and keep preserving our most scenic, fragile and important lands in the years to come. postandcourier.com/opinion/editor…

@nicksortor @KenPaxtonTX Trump should stay neutral, if he backs Paxton & Cornyn loses he likely loses Cornyn’s vote for remainder of 2026. More likely he’ll foolishly back Cornyn. If Cornyn loses, either GOP loses TX Senate seat or we get lousy RINO. If Paxton wins Trump damages candidate & relationship!

BREAKING: President Trump says he'll be endorsing either Ken Paxton or John Cornyn SOON "I'll make a decision... maybe relatively soon. I like them both." It HAS to be @KenPaxtonTX. Cornyn is a backstabbing RINO that will TURN ON YOU as soon as he gets through the primary, @realDonaldTrump. THE PEOPLE are behind Paxton!

@RandPaul @JohnMappin Unfortunately Senator Paul it seems like your & John Thune’s testimony date is designed to secure Tony Fauci statute of limitations protection just in case his autopen pardon proves ineffective!

Next week I’m holding a hearing with a whistleblower who will testify publicly about the COVID coverup. Mark your calendars: Wednesday, May 13 at 10am. The truth is coming.

@MaryCaitlinByrd @MegKinnardAP Hopefully Mark Sanford suspending his SC congressional bid is sign that we’re beginning to hold public figures truly accountable for their past actions. This scary tumultuous 4th turning may take us to a much better place. Now if we the people just restore control & avoid SKYNET!

NEW: Mark Sanford suspending SC congressional bid. Will launch advocacy targeting national debt instead. postandcourier.com/politics/mark-… #SC01 #scpol #scnews #chsnews

@AGAlanWilson Maintaining SC #6 as minority district has allowed it’s constituents to be underserved. Reconstituting it as part of its true adjacent neighboring districts would drastically upgrade quality of life including education & infrastructure. Separate but equal is clearly not equal!

In light of today’s ruling from the U.S. Supreme Court, South Carolina should take a fresh look at its maps to ensure they reflect the Constitution. But the bigger problem isn’t just redistricting. It’s people elected from strong Republican districts who turn around and work against @POTUS @realDonaldTrump's agenda. You can draw the right lines, but it won’t matter if the people elected don’t actually represent the voters who sent them there.

@nicksortor @leepd84 Now we need strong MAGA Conservatives as candidates & not the RINO globalists or closet DEMS that unfortunately are common is red states.

🚨 BREAKING — IT'S OFFICIAL: Ron DeSantis' new Congressional map for Florida, which positions Republicans to win an extra FOUR seats in the US House, has FULLY PASSED the Senate, 21-17 It'll now head to DeSantis' desk. GREAT JOB, FLORIDA! Other southern states MUST follow 👏

@OpenSourceZone @realLizUSA Make the Southeast look like the Northeast. No red districts in New England.

Potential map of the south without the VRA restrictions Per NYT Current map: 🔴 Republicans: 65 🔵 Democrats: 24 Potential map: 🔴 Republicans: 77 (+12) 🔵 Democrats: 12 (-12)

NOTABLE: Prosecutors' memo drops any reference to a USSS officer being hit by a bullet. It now says an officer observed Allen fire in the direction of the staircase toward the WHCD. That officer then fired at Allen five times but did not hit him. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/2808…

JUST IN: Federal prosecutors release new images and details of Cole Allen and his alleged attempt to assassinate president Trump. Here is a mirror selfie he took about 30 minutes before charging past the magnetometers. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/2808…

@realBrandonGill @mikesamerica Somehow this video is being largely muted to reduce the political impact

I described some of the most common methods of abortion to one of the abortion industry’s top legal scholars. As you can see, the barbaric truth wasn't something she wanted to hear.

@EricLDaugh What’s going on with Jamie Raskin’s left eye? It’s strange how all these politicians seem to get unreported facial injuries.

🚨 NOW: Dem Rep. Jamie Raskin ACTS CLUELESS when asked if his party should tone down the heated rhetoric against President Trump “What rhetoric do you have in mind?“ 🤡 Is he SERIOUS?! How about the constant NAZI comparisons, at a MINIMUM

@Tironianae @leepd84 Grok didn’t say PV reports false, only unverified by FBI who reported to Bill Barr. It’s proven BB lied saying no 2020 election regularities reports, had Intelligence Community deep ties during Russia Hoax & impeachments, & gave cover on Epstein death. Seditious RICO participant!

BREAKING🚨: Project Veritas reports that recently uncovered text messages and emails show former Attorney General Bill Barr worked with Fulton County DA Fani Willis on the RICO case against President Trump.

@bennyjohnson It’s actually SIX TIMES they’ve tried to assasinate Trump! You failed to include the raid on Secret Service protected Maralago where the FBI astonishingly secured permission to actually be prepared to use deadly force! Deep State, global elites, & intelligence want him taken out!

They have now tried to assassinate Trump at least five times… -Thomas Crooks shot him in Bulter -Ryan Routh shot at him at his golf course -Multiple plots by Iran -A gunman stormed Mar-a-Lago -Now the White House Correspondents’ Dinner This violent death cult must be disavowed

@Watchdog_MP @BenTallmadge01 Same technology used in Canada as used in Philippines, same ethnicity. In Canada it’s a crime, in Philippines it’s espionage. Speaks to much larger problems north of U.S. border. Why have we not yet found this China CCP plot operating within U.S.!

🚨 BREAKING: Toronto Police just seized “SMS Blasters” fake cell towers never seen before in Canada. These portable devices hijack thousands of phones at once, blast fake bank/Canada Post texts, and knock out real service (even 911 calls). Tens of thousands of phones hit. Over 13 MILLION disruptions. Three men charged 🇨🇳 • Dafeng Lin, 27, of Hamilton • Junmin Shi, 25, of Markham • Weitong Hu, 21, of Markham This is next-level cyber crime on our streets. Stay alert. Never click surprise links. #Toronto #CyberCrime #ScamAlert

@RT_com Makes one wonder if this is a paid Sussex appearance like the recent New Zealand show. Zelensky likely used some his bankroll to get some visibility for Ukraine. Both Harry & Vladimir drastically need publicity to regain some relevance. Both have serious cash flow problems!

Prince Harry trying to stay relevant makes an unannounced appearance in Kiev

@C__Herridge Meanwhile Gina Haspel’s former boss, CIA Director Mike Pompeo who recommended Gina replace him is serving as Secretary of State. Are we to believe he knew nothing about Gina’s work as CIA Station Chief in London coordinating Russia Hoax? Pompeo needs to be indicted in conspiracy!

@Real_RobN And who pushed Gina Haspel to replace Mike Pompeo as CIA Director? She was pushed by her two former bosses, John Brennan & RINO Mike Pompeo who had moved on to be Secretary of State. Pompeo undermined Trump & was likely an active insurrection co-conspirator. He dreams about 2028!

And here it is: An Obama holdover? My ass CONFIRMED: CIA Director Gina Haspel, who planted Eric Ciaramella, conspired with OCCRP, Adam Schiff, and USAID to topple the United States government in 2019. Jesse Watters “You have this new piece on Substack that the USAID and the CIA helped orchestrate Trump's impeachment?” @shellenberger “It's a crazy story — The House of Representatives impeached, President Trump in December of 2019. Many people may may not remember that it was a CIA analyst who was left over from the Obama White House who wrote the memo that led to the impeachment. It was all based on hearsay.The person had not actually been in the room with Trump. Nonetheless, this memo that he wrote relied heavily on a report done by an organization funded by USAID. In fact, its initial founding funding I mean, now it's $10s of millions of dollars had gone into this group called the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project, a name that's not very memorable, OCCRP, but it was basically created as an extension of the state department and then of USAID.” In other words: President Trump’s phone call with Zelenskyy occurred on July 25, 2019. What kind of Obama holdover is this—nearly a year and a half into Trump’s presidency? Meaning: The CIA under John Brennan in 2016 and under Gina Haspel in 2019 attempted to topple the U.S. government—and succeeded in 2020—all funded by USAID through the extortion of the American taxpayer. 📝John Brennan and Gina Haspel belong in a single 6-by-6 prison cell, sharing all the amenities prison provides.

@libsoftiktok I sure hope this New Jersey special election to fill Mike Sherrill’s House seat was stolen. The alternative is much scarier for the future of our country.

Leftist Analilia Mejia, just won NJ's special election to fill Mikie Sherrill's congressional seat and gave an unhinged victory speech labeling Trump and Elon Musk as "the true radicals." Mejia wants to abolish ICE and push socialist policies Good luck, New Jersey!
