awesome

I don't have an issue with nepotism generally but political nepotism is just weird. It isn't weird to the ruling elites though - they don't work for you.

@djsmith103 @Acyn It isn't common practice to appoint a democratic nominee for president but the Democrats did.

@ksl43 @Acyn That isn't the same thing at all lmao. I started trying to explain it to you how it's different but I doubt you actually care. & no, it's never been common practice to gift an empty Senate seat to the dead senator's closet living relative who's never held public office before🤣

South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster announces that he will appoint Darline Graham Nordone, the sister of the late Lindsey Graham, to take her brother’s place in the Senate.

@djsmith103 @Acyn Since you are too lazy

@PowerOwn45 You have every right to give your opinion just like Trump does. It is up to the governor.

I feel silly for explaining this because I know all the civic scholars crashing out in my comments are well aware, but when a state governor makes an apppintment—or decision of any kind for that matter—he or she is supposed to feel pressure from constituents, not the POTUS. The latter is an inversion of how our Republic was designed to work. If a governor wants to appoint a senator’s sister to fill a seat on an interim basis, that is his or her prerogative. And it’s important that it remain their prerogative. We’ve been eroding away the separation of powers for a century now and it has predictably delivered a government that barely listens to its citizens, much less does their bidding. What may not seem like a big deal to you is actually a pretty big deal in terms of the American experiment.

@reallouiehuey Because it's not happening. It's another lie Dems are telling. They are strengthening intelligence between the two countries. Man y'all will believe anything they say and are too lazy to look it up.

Why isn't the president of the United States talking to his constituents about why our military is merging with the Israeli military? Kinda sus at best no?

@cwebbonline It's really simple self deport or you will be detained. Comply and don't die.

Rachel Maddow’s description of Juan Sebastian Guerrero killed by ICE in Maine is something you need to see. She explains what happened without being graphic, and somehow that makes it even more powerful. Remember Alex, Pretti, and Renée? There have been no prosecutions. Still no justice. We know how this goes. Watch it to the end.

I just joined outraged Mainers to protest at the ICE facility in Scarborough, after rogue agents killed a father in Biddeford yesterday. Too many Americans have died at the hands of lawless agents under the Trump administration. It’s time to abolish ICE and end this cruelty.

@AntiTrumpCanada I think it's funny when y'all put in the idiotic twisted posts what the kids are wearing. Like what does that matter. The guy should not have resisted with a little kid in the car.

A 3-yr-old girl in Maine watched ICE fatally shoot her father (Joan Sebastian Guerrero) in the head while she sat in her car seat wearing Bluey pajamas. Then she watched agents pull his lifeless body from the car to cuff him. Is America great yet, you stupid MAGA motherfuckers?

@SenSchumer No it will be on you. You refuse to pass it even though 83% of Americans want it. You and yours are not representing the American people. You are on your own little power trips.

If there's a shutdown, it's on Donald Trump. He said so himself. Unless Trump changes his course, realizes the anti-democracy SAVE Act cannot pass, and starts working on more productive things, we could be headed for another Trump Shutdown.

@IAmSophiaNelson @SpeakerJohnson Idiot

NO, Mr. @SpeakerJohnson YOU are the danger to our country. You and Congressional Republicans.

@BethanyForTruth As a journalist you should know how it works. She will only be there till January. It's amazing how stupid Dems are.

🚨BREAKING: Lindsey Graham’s SISTER, Darline Graham Nordone, just got appointed to finish his Senate term through January. Trump recommended her, Gov. McMaster made it official, and she’s now South Carolina’s first female senator. Family business in the swamp? Neat how that works. Will Darline bring real America First energy or just more of the same? Time will tell, but this seems like keeping the seat warm for the machine. What do you think??

@AzPetrich Are you too stupid to look things up?

Did you know that when a male surgeon dies they just have his wife with no medical training take over and do all the surgeries? And if she's isn't available or doesn't exist, the job goes to his sister.

If Hunter or Jill Biden took over Joe Biden's Senate seat, all of you hypocrites would be blowing a major fit. It's NOT ok when our side does it.

@RepJeffries Blah blah blah blah

ICE agents who break the law must be criminally investigated and should be criminally prosecuted. Every single perpetrator must be held accountable.

@RepDexterOR Blah blah blah blah

The killing of Joan Sebastian Guerrero by ICE is not an isolated event. It is a pattern we have seen in communities across the country where militarized federal agents rip away fathers, mothers, neighbors, and loved ones. It will continue until real changes are made. That's why we need to ABOLISH ICE.

They replaced Lindsay Graham with his sister. The GOP is just a series of Nepo hires.

@lmtobias It only takes seconds to look it up.

Just because you are a sister, brother or cousin of a politician doesn't mean you can just step into their job...this is completely absurd. This administration is making a mockery of our country and our constitution.

If you’re shocked by the sudden appointment of Lindsey Graham’s sister, an unelected person with ZERO Senate experience, consider who will benefit: - 5 Israel bills in Senate - Growing Dem opposition to Israel - Tight GOP majority (51) - Potential no votes like Rand Paul (R)

@dutchessprim Then your mom is as stupid as you.

🚨BOMBSHELL NEWS!🚨 My mom, who voted for Trump twice, just let the family know she switched her registration to Democrat… People are tired of the bullshit.

@maddenifico He should have complied.

His name was Joan Sebastian Guerrero. He was only 26-years-old when Trump's Gestapo ICE Nazis shot him dead in his car. Guerrero's 3-year-old daughter — who was wearing Bluey pajamas and a small backpack — was right there and stood crying in the street during the gunfire. His wife was also present and fell to her knees next to their daughter, letting out what neighbors described as an "agonizing howl". Not surprisingly, ICE were not wearing body cameras. Since Trump launched 'Operation 1938 Germany' in January 2025, at least nine people have been killed in public shootings by ICE — and more than 50 people have died in detention
