When racist imagery comes from the Oval Office, it carries the weight of the nation.

This wasn’t politics. It was an abuse of power. And it deserves to be strongly condemned.

Big update for our February 12 Town Hall! I’m excited to announce that Michael Missal, former Inspector General of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, will be joining us to talk about why checks and balances matter, why Congress must reclaim its role, and how real oversight works.

Grateful for the growing support from veterans, community leaders, and public servants across the Lowcountry. Our new campaign video shows what this movement is really about: listening, showing up — and fighting for the people who call this district home. #MacDeford #SC01 #SCpol

When governments in other countries murder their citizens, we call that tyranny. Congress must put this administration in check and stop its lawlessness.

I served as a federal law enforcement officer. I know the standards. Federal agents murdered Alex Pretti in Minneapolis while he was exercising his First Amendment rights. He was a VA nurse and a U.S. citizen. If Congress defends this, it has abandoned its duty.

As a former law enforcement officer and a father, I’m speaking out.

Detaining five-year olds.
Ignoring court orders.
Terrorizing children.

That’s not who we’re supposed to be.

We’ve held 10+ town halls across SC-01 so far, packed rooms and honest conversations with voters who want better from Congress. And we’re just getting started.

Join us for our first town hall of 2026:

The facts don’t match the talking points.
Inflation remains high. Manufacturing jobs are falling. Tariffs are raising costs on many individuals and families.

I served in law enforcement to protect people, not intimidate them. What happened to Renee Good was unjustifiable, tragic, and insane. Congress must put this administration in check.

If the U.S. government were serious about combating fentanyl, it would be putting sustained pressure on China and India.

And if Congress were serious, it would stop deferring to slogans and demand a coherent, lawful policy.

These things can all be true: Maduro is a thug. America must lead. And we cannot lead the free world by breaking our own laws and bypassing Congress.

Launching war and pursuing regime change without Congressional approval is blatantly illegal and reckless. It erodes the rule of law and America’s credibility on the world stage. An administration that refuses to invest in healthcare but races into war has its priorities dangerously wrong.

The poll is in. SC01 is in play. And we’re just getting started.

Unauthorized strikes. Seized tankers. Threats of regime change. The Constitution gives Congress the power over war for a reason.

Hey @macdeford.bsky.social I think #SC01 looks more competitive by the day. Let’s get it done for the lowcountry!

America’s strength comes from how we use force, not just that we have it. What happened in the Caribbean crosses a line we cannot afford to ignore.

Terrible news out of Washington. Two National Guard members were killed near the White House. Praying for their families and for everyone who serves our country.

A president threatening political opponents with death is not normal. It’s dangerous. We have to call it out.
