DESCRIPTION

Former Democrat solicitor David Pascoe joins Tara for a fiery interview after resurfaced clips show him endorsing Joe Biden and campaigning for Democrats. Now running in the Republican primary for South Carolina Attorney General, Pascoe defends his political past, claims corruption runs deep in Columbia, and says both parties tried to stop his investigations. Tara presses him hard on trust, conservatism, and whether GOP voters should believe his transformation.

EPISODE SUMMARY

Today’s show dives headfirst into South Carolina politics as attorney general candidate David Pascoe faces intense scrutiny over his past support for Democrats, including Joe Biden and Todd Rutherford. Pascoe argues his actions were strategic moves to preserve corruption investigations tied to powerful lawmakers in Columbia. Tara challenges him on whether Republican voters can trust someone with such deep Democrat ties, while Pascoe insists his conservative values and anti-corruption record speak for themselves.

The conversation covers judicial reform, corruption inside South Carolina government, the state grand jury probe, and growing tensions within the Republican Party between establishment figures and grassroots conservatives. It’s one of the most confrontational political interviews of the campaign season.
