The cultural turnaround on this stunningly obvious issue the last 5 or so years has been remarkable, & it’s thanks to brave people with a platform like @sophaller. Thank you for standing up for young girls & defending their ability to play sports unimpeded by insanity, Sophie!

David was a caring and thoughtful man whose sincere commitment to public service stemmed from a genuine desire to do what was right—a quality that feels all too rare today. Nowhere was this love more evident than in the love he had for his family, and especially his 2 children.

May perpetual light shine upon him, and may the Lord grant him eternal rest. I pray that Christ, who conquered sin and death, has welcomed David into His eternal kingdom—where every tear is wiped away and peace has no end.

Huge endorsement for @SpeakerHansen! This endorsement speaks to the work that Jon has done for the conservative movement over the years, he will continue that same good work as governor.

Not only is @DustyJohnson duplicitous in pretending he isn’t behind negative ads--he's being funded by the exact corporate interests he's always served: carbon pipeline backers, open primary activists, and liberal megadonors trying to buy control of SD. thedakotascout.com/p/attack-…

Sometimes the headline tells the whole story. Unlike other politicians, @SpeakerHansen will always work and advocate on behalf of working South Dakotans and their families.

D.C. Dusty flip-flops again—as recently as *within the last month,* Dusty expressed support for this property tax legislation. Don’t believe me? Watch it for yourself:
HEY, SOUTH DAKOTA: While Dusty Johnson was working with the President to CUT TAXES for working families—Larry Rhoden and Jon Hansen were RAISING THEM! Unacceptable. As Governor, Dusty will make South Dakota affordable so our kids can build their future here.

There is only one political position @DustyJohnson is not willing to flip-flop on, and that is his disdain for @realDonaldTrump

Across months in DC for this mobilization, I had so many positive interactions with West Virginia Guardsmen. Consummate professionals who were proud to represent their state. God bless our Soldiers always, but may He particularly have his hands on these two today.
We are now receiving conflicting reports about the condition of our two Guard members and will provide additional updates once we receive more complete information. Our prayers are with these brave service members, their families, and the entire Guard community.
