Understanding the Democratic Party: National, State, and Local Roles

Posted October 12, 2025 in News
Share

Every Accusation is a Confession: The MAGA Strategy to Rig Elections and Silence Voters

Posted July 10, 2025 in Community Voices, News
Share
The Big Lie Has Always Been the Plan Donald Trump didn’t just start claiming elections were rigged in 2020—it started in 2012 when he called President Obama’s re-election a “total sham.” There was no evidence then. There was none in 2016 when he said Ted Cruz “stole” the Iowa caucus. And there certainly wasn’t in 2020. The…

How about immigration? You know, the “millions and millions of rapists, murderers, and criminals” that, according to Trump, “Biden let into our country.” Now Trump says he’ll…

What’s Next? I’ve been trying to decide what message is most important to me—what I wanted to write about next. There’s so much to choose from these days.

After decades of being “on the outs” in Horry County, we Democrats have a real shot at making history on November 3, 2026. Recent national polls show Trump’s support is dropping rapidly—even here in “Solid Red” South Carolina.
