Governor Henry McMaster named Darline Graham Nordone to fill the remainder of her late brother's term, making her the first woman ever to represent South Carolina in the United States Senate. On today's show, Jenny Beth Martin connects the human story to the political one: the last promise Lindsey Graham made to the President was that the SAVE America Act would pass, and the House is now working to carry it across the finish line inside the Reconciliation 3.0 budget package, without the 60-vote threshold in the Senate.
Joining Jenny Beth: Jim Pfaff, president of The Conservative Caucus, and Robert McNeily, Director of Broadcasting and Grassroots Engagement at Tea Party Patriots Action, break down the news of the day. In the second half, Angel Mom Anne Fundner shares the warning every parent needs to hear about the counterfeit fentanyl pill that took the life of her 15-year-old son, Weston.
