How did I end up involved in @Principles_1st? I noticed young attorney’s tweets in 2019 that resonated w/me. @HeathMayo had courage & foresight to speak up for principles instead of party personalities. I resigned from #SCGOP & decided to put my efforts in w/#PrinciplesFirst. 1/
If you don’t follow @HeathMayo yet, you should. His voice of reason & consistency is needed in a political landscape built on hypocrisy & opportunism. His leadership has created a grassroots movement that continues to grow. People crave authenticity & integrity. 2/
So now we’re four years into creation of @Principles_1st & we’ve held THREE national summits that have attracted attendees from across America. This is data from last month’s summit. People gave of their time, talent & treasure to participate. That is how a movement grows. 3/

Here's what we're talking about: S627, which would prohibit trans youth from accessing medical care (and force teachers to “out” trans students) and deny public funding for transgender-related healthcare, and S623, which prohibits gender marker changes on birth certificates. 3/

Richard H. Cain passed away #OTD in 1887. Cain represented South Carolina in the US House of Representatives. He was one of six Black men to represent South Carolina in Congress during Reconstruction. Cain was also an abolitionist, newspaper editor, entrepreneur, and minister.
Cain was born to free parents on April 12, 1825, in Greenbrier County, Virginia (modern day West Virginia). He and his family moved to Gallipolis, Ohio, in 1831. Because Ohio was a free state, Cain was provided an education and learned how to read and write.
He became a licensed minister in the Methodist Episcopal Church in 1844 and moved to Hannibal, Missouri. He left the Methodist Church in 1848 to join the African Methodist Episcopal (AME) Church where he became a minister and deacon.

2022 #Midterms Simulation: #ArtoftheGerrymander
A Republican House win will be built on gerrymanders (TX/GA/FL/TN/LA, etc.)
To illustrate the need for fair maps, I'm calculating the results using the 2022 votes, but if every state had a Democratic gerrymander. #ElectionTwitter

I’ll apply the difference in Presidential margin to the House result. Thanks @davesredist @mikemathieu @vest_team + @DKElections @PoliticsWolf
Keen to see how my maps perform over the decade; tried to comply with state law if partisan intent were allowed to stand.

South Carolina, Civil War and Gamecock trend. Charleston, SC is home to USS CLAMAGORE (SS-343). She’s a WW2 Balao-class / Cold War GUPPY II then GUPPY III submarine now being scrapped. Let me show you her today and take you on board… 1/ #WW2 #Submarines #Coldwar #CivilWar

@USN_Submariner @CovertShores @submarines4ever @RLitwiller 3/ I only toured Clamagore once. It's by the #WW2 / #ColdWar aircraft carrier CV-10 Yorktown. As we approach, note the smaller sail of USS Drum (top), which Clamagore would have resembled as first built in 1945 and the GUPPY III conversion sail (bottom).

The story of the #BuildBackBetter has yet to be written. Let’s examine the 50 Republican US Senators who are voting against lifting children out of poverty, education,elder care, affordable prescription drugs, child care & family leave? What does this mean for YOUR STATE?
#ALABAMA Sen. Richard Shelby is voting against the #ChildTaxCredit “The Center on Budget &Policy Priorities found making the program permanent would benefit 93% of #AL children,lift 162,000 #AL children above/closer to poverty line & benefit 480,000 #AL children under 17.
#ALABAMA Sen. Tommy Tuberville has offered you no solutions; he has admitted that he “wouldn’t have a clue” how to address the current pandemic and recently told people that $600 per week in federal unemployment benefits was just “too much.” al.com/news/2021/12/a…
Less than a month after 18 y.o. Elijah “E.J.” Johnson scored two touchdowns in his first high school game of the season, his mom says he’s fighting to breathe due to COVID pneumonia complicated by blood clots. He's admitted to a pediatric ICU in Missouri kansascity.com/news/state/mis…
Elijah was not vaccinated, but his mother wants to warn others about the virus. "I choose to be transparent about my son's journey bc the youth are being exposed and transmitting the virus more and more... his school doesn’t have a mask mandate it’s optional"
16-year-old Levi Barnett, Oklahoma high school football player is hospitalized with COVID. “It gets depressing,” said mom, “You just sit there and you watch your sick child and all you can do is just pray for them to be better.” kansascity.com/news/nation-wo…
