Zip codes donating the most money to Donald Trump in California
--- Quote ---
> In November of last year, former President Donald Trump
announced his plans to run for president again in 2024. Despite
potential complications presented by his indictment over
falsifying business records in March and a jury finding him
liable for defamation and sexual abuse in civil court in May,
Trump has not announced any changes to his re-election bid; in
fact, the Trump campaign announced an influx of donations after
his grand jury indictment, signaling continued support from his
base.
>
> However, Trump’s broader appeal in the context of the 2024
presidential race remains unclear. The 2022 midterm elections
put his political influence, both within the Republican party
and among the voting public, to the test. Trump endorsed more
than two dozen Republican candidates. While the GOP expected a
“red wave” to deliver overwhelming control of both houses of
Congress, the results were significantly more muted. Democrats
retained control of the Senate, and while Republicans have the
House, the margin of success proved to be narrower than
pro-Trump devotees anticipated. Candidates that were given the
thumbs-up by Trump did not overwhelmingly win as expected...

How Tim Scott thinks he can outmaneuver Trump, DeSantis and
Pence
--- Quote ---

the evangelical right.
--- End Quote ---
--- Quote ---
> Tim Scott has made one thing clear while dipping his toe in
the 2024 waters: He’ll be a candidate who knows how to say “II
Corinthians.”
>
> He can probably even quote the book from memory.
>
> The South Carolina senator, who announced an exploratory
committee on Wednesday, remains a mysterious factor in the
Republican primary field. Donors float him as a potential
alternative to Donald Trump, should Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis
stumble. And Scott’s genteel personality and lack of past Trump
entanglements could give him unique appeal to independents and a
newer swath of GOP voters.
>
> A foregone conclusion, though, is that evangelicals — with all
their subsets and denominations — will be his top constituency.
> In a video announcing his new committee, Scott’s first pledge
was to defend America’s faith values and protect religious
liberty. Scott’s answer later in the morning on how he would
beat Trump in a primary involved a reference to Psalm 139...

reform.[78] Amid skeptical reactions from others in the Black
community he tweeted, "Not surprising the last 24 hours have
seen a lot of 'token' 'boy' or 'you're being used' in my
mentions" and "Let me get this straight ... you DON'T want the
person who has faced racial profiling by police, been pulled
over dozens of times, or been speaking out for YEARS drafting
this?".[78]
>
> Scott's 106-page Justice Act[79] included:
>
> Increased federal reporting requirements for use of force,
no-knock warrants.
> Increased penalties for false police reports.[80]
> Withhold funding for police departments that allow chokeholds
when deadly force is not authorized.[80]
> Grants for expanding police body cameras with penalties for
failing to use them.[80]
> Creates a database of police disciplinary records for use in
hiring.[80]
> Created a federal crime for lynching.[80]
> Directed the Justice Department to provide training on
deescalation tactics and implement duty-to-intervene
policies.[80]
>
> The bill lacked provisions demanded by Democrats, including
restrictions on qualified immunity. Nancy Pelosi called Scott's
bill "inadequate",[81] and said Republicans "understand that
there's a need to get something done. ... They admit that and
have some suggestions that are worthy of consideration—but so
far, they were trying to get away with murder, actually—the
murder of George Floyd."[82] Senate Minority Whip Democrat Dick
Durbin called the bill "token" legislation, although he later
apologized to Scott.[83] Two Democrats and one Independent
senator who caucuses with Democrats broke with the party to
support Scott's bill, but ultimately Democrats used the
filibuster to block it; it received 55 of the required 60
votes...[84]

cord blood stem cell research,[95] but opposes taxpayer-funded
embryonic stem cell research[96] and the creation of human
embryos for experimentation.[97] He opposes assisted suicide[95]
and same-sex marriage.[98] Scott also opposes instruction on
gender identity in schools; in 2022 and 2023, he and Senator
Rick Scott (no relation) co-sponsored the PROTECT Kids Act,
which would restrict federal funding to institutions that allow
preferred pronouns and gender-fluid bathrooms and locker rooms,
as well as those that conceal children's sexual orientation from
their parents, among other measures.[99][100]

(D-Nev.), Ben Cardin (D-Md.), and Rick Scott (R-Fla.) championed
a resolution recognizing Jewish American Heritage Month, which
celebrates the many contributions of Jewish Americans to the
United States. The resolution, which passed the Senate this
week, also calls on elected officials, faith leaders, and civil
society leaders to condemn and combat any and all acts of
antisemitism.

> “Jewish Americans are a vibrant part of our nation’s history,
and their extraordinary accomplishments have pushed America
forward as a beacon of hope, faith, and freedom,” said Senator
Tim Scott. “I am proud to stand with the Jewish community,
especially as despicable antisemitism is on the rise. We must
reaffirm our commitment to not only calling out this hate, but
crushing it wherever it rears its ugly head.”...
