Rep. Nancy Mace (R) topped Trump-endorsed Katie Arrington (R) for South Carolina’s First Congressional District by 6 percent. In a Trafalgar survey from May 26 to May 29, about 46 percent of Republican voters said they would vote for Mace. These numbers represent GOP primary voters in the First District, which includes Charleston, Beaufort, Bluffton and other parts of the picturesque Palmetto Lowcountry. On Monday night, Mace and Arrington faced off on offshore drilling, the issue that was a hallmark of Arrington’s losing 2018 bid, during which she argued both in favor of and against the practice.

South Carolina state Rep. Russell Fry (R-SC) leads Rep. Tom Rice (R-SC) by double digits, according to a poll released on Wednesday. A Trafalgar Group poll for South Carolina’s seventh congressional district primary found that Fry leads Rice and the rest of the field by a wide margin. Fry leads at 42.4 percent, Rice has 24.9 percent, Barbara Rice has 9.8 percent, Garrett Barton has 2.9 percent, Spencer Morris has 2.1 percent, and Mark McBride has 1.5 percent. With a four percent margin of error, Fry comfortably leads over Rice.

LAS VEGAS (Reuters) - The campaign website of Democrat Catherine Cortez Masto does not mention the word "inflation." Voters will not find it on her Twitter feed, or in any of her ads as she faces a tough re-election battle for her U.S. Senate seat in Nevada, a contest that could determine which party controls Congress. In an election year when opinion polls show inflation as the top concern for voters, Cortez Masto is gambling that tiptoeing around the subject, while playing up her role in delivering COVID relief to Nevadans, will allow her to survive a brutal political environment....

Simply unaffordable! President Biden met with Federal Reserve Chairman Powell to discuss how to control the inflation that is crushing the middle class and low-wage workers. Here is a good example of why Biden is worried. There is a mid-term election on the horizon and people are angry and scared. Housing, generally the largest asset owned (or rented) by a household is simply unaffordable thanks, in part, to the over-stimulation of the economy by 1) The Federal Reserve in terms of money printing and 2) the Federal government in terms of fiscal stimulus in response to the Covid outbreak in...

A Toronto doctor is facing no professional discipline after admitting to giving the Covid-19 vaccine to at least 500 kids as young as six months old, despite the shot not being approved for children under the age of five. According to the Toronto Star, Dr. Christopher Sun from Weston-Mount Dennis stands by his decision and claims he did it “to protect children.” “I put my neck on the line and did what I wanted to get done, which was to protect children,” Sun told the outlet. “These are worried parents in time of a health crisis and I think it’s...

The rise of the Green World Order that will be addressed at the Stockholm+50 needs to address the impact on the world’s 8 billion residents in a future world without fossil fuels as efforts to cease the use of crude oil could be the greatest threat to civilization’s eight billion, and may result in billions, not millions, of fatalities from diseases, malnutrition, and weather-related deaths trying to live without the fossil fuels that are benefiting society, wrote Ronald Stein The Stockholm+50 two-day meeting begins tomorrow, 2 June 2022, and follows months of consultations and discussions with individuals, communities, organisations, and...

Millions of Americans say they likely will have to push back their retirement because of rising inflation, newly released financial survey data found. The BMO Real Financial Progress Index, a quarterly survey from BMO and Ipsos, showed that a quarter of Americans will likely need to delay their retirement because of higher prices. “Nearly 60% of those surveyed said that inflation has adversely affected their personal finances, of which about one in four said that they have felt a major impact,” the group said. “As a result of inflation, 36% of Americans have reduced their savings and 21% have reduced...

WASHINGTON, Sunday, June 1. We have had a desperate battle, in which the corps of Gens. Sumner, Heintzelman and Keyes have been engaged against greatly superior numbers. The following dispatch was received at the War Department this afternoon, from FIELD OF BATTLE, Sunday, June 1-12 M. Yesterday, at one, the enemy, taking advantage of a terrible storm, which had flooded the valley of the Chickahominy, attacked our troops on the right flank. Gen. CASEY's Division, which was in the first line, gave way unaccountably and disunitedly. This caused a temporary confusion, during which the guns and baggage were lost; but...

In 2001, We went into Afghanistan to destroy a terrorist safe haven and drive Al Qaida from that nation. Al Qaeda had blown up two of our embassies, almost sunk a U.S. Navy destroyer, and flown planes into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. Thousands of Americans had been killed. We succeeded brilliantly. With relative handfuls of men on the ground, we crushed the Taliban and Osama Bin Laden had to flee for his life to Pakistan. Then we lost our way. We spent twenty years trying to turn Afghanistan into ‘Switzerland in Central Asia’. We paved roads, built...

Conducted between May 25-27, the new poll from Nelson Research showed Drazan had 29.5 percent of support out of 516 likely voters,while Kotek had just 27.5 percent of support with a margin of error of 4.3 percent.

It came to me this morning. The government (i.e. law enforcement, military) doesn't want the general public having firearms because it ENDANGERS the police and military, public be damned. If folks are killing each other with knives or anything other than a firearm, the enforcement part of government doesn't care because use of anything but a firearm for the most part will not endanger them that much because THEY have overwhelming firepower to defend themselves. If folks are stabbing each other to death, fine. Hard to kill a police officer with a stray knife throw, but a stray bullet is...

IPray For The Peace of JerusalemGenesis 11Abram’s Family 27 This is the account of Terah’s family line. Terah became the father of Abram, Nahor and Haran. And Haran became the father of Lot. 28 While his father Terah was still alive, Haran died in Ur of the Chaldeans, in the land of his birth. 29 Abram and Nahor both married.

Biden’s VP blames “assault weapons” for the actions of criminals and terrorists. "You know what an assault weapon is?” Kamala Harris asked reporters on May 29. “You know how an assault weapon was designed? It was designed for a specific purpose—to kill a lot of human beings quickly. An assault weapon is a weapon of war with no place, no place in a civil society.” The nation, Harris said, was experiencing an “epidemic of hate,” and so on. Biden’s vice president calls for a ban on “assault” weapons, which she failed to define. Harris doubtless had the AR-15 in mind...

Prokupecz asked Arredondo why he had ordered his officers to wait outside the school while Salvador Ramos, 18, was inside killing 19 kids and two teachers. Arredondo deflected Prokupecz's questions, repeatedly saying that there would be answers once the parents of victims were done grieving. Shortly after confronting the chief, Prokupecz was confronted by a group of Uvalde ISD officers who told him that cops from the Uvalde Police Department were on the way, and that he and his crew would be charged with trespassing if they were still present when they arrived.

Does anyone who doesn’t live in a gated community or who can’t afford private security guards really believe that diversity is a virtue? Following the leak of the draft Supreme Court’s upcoming decision on abortion, first-year Yale Law School student Shyamala Ramakrishna referred to members of the Federalist Society as “Christo-fascists.” The Washington Free Beacon added nonchalantly, “Some of her classmates were less moderate.” You might agree. The Free Beacon quoted another first-year student, Melisa Olgun, as saying: “Neither the constitution nor the courts—nor the f—ing illusion of ‘democracy’—are going to save us. How can we possibly expect a document,...

Author of the popular book “Deep State” and award-winning journalist Alex Newman says Deep State globalists are afraid the world is waking up to the tyranny they are trying to impose on every country on earth including America. Things are not going as smoothly into their so-called reset as they had envisioned. Newman explains, “The Deep State is in a ‘do or die’ moment right now…” “They, the elites or predator class, recognize that they are now locked into this. If they try to retreat, there is no retreat. People are waking up at such a rapid rate that they...

Rolling blackouts are just part of the plan. I keep hearing about possible blackouts in the Midwest coming this summer. Even Texas is expecting rolling blackouts. This is an energy state with abundant natural gas. I have seen blackouts due to storms and other issues but never a prediction of blackouts just because it is summer and hot. While I am aware there has been an effort to “go green” by implementing solar and wind generation, together they account for around 4% of generation That’s hardly a blip in the greater scheme of things. Coal has historically been the baseload...

China has cleared the docks at a shipyard in Shanghai, reportedly for the much-anticipated launch of its third aircraft carrier. The vessel, Type 003, is said to be under construction in the Jiangnan Shipyard on Changxing Island. A notice issued by the Maritime Safety Administration last Friday said the No 3 and No 4 docks of the shipyard are being cleared for an operation involving five large vessels. The operation carried out Monday involved five platforms, three tugboats and two salvage ships. Though no official statement has been made about the carrier yet, speculations are rife that the clearing operation...
