## Resource

Navy veteran Nancy Lacore, ousted by Pete Hegseth last year, is now launching a bold Democratic bid for South Carolina’s first congressional district—a GOP stronghold she’s determined to flip. After 35 years of service and leading the Navy Reserve, Lacore’s campaign has surged with veteran and progressive backing, raising over $1.4 million in just months. Facing off against fellow vet Mac Deford in a June 23 runoff, she’s channeling her military grit into politics, vowing to continue public service despite her dismissal—seen by many as part of Hegseth’s purge of military leaders who didn’t fit Trump’s vision. This uphill battle could reshape a district that’s handed Republicans double-digit wins for years. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
