PROJECT 2025 ARCHITECT PAUL DANS LAUNCHES SENATE BID TO RETIRE WARMONGER LINDSEY GRAHAM -- a campaign news release.
Conservative Leader Who Shaped Trump's America First Agenda to Announce Campaign at Charleston Event
CHARLESTON, SC – Paul Dans, the visionary behind Project 2025 and a key architect of President Trump’s America First agenda, will announce his candidacy for United States Senate on July 30, 2025, at 11:00 AM at the Old Exchange Building, 122 E Bay St, Charleston, SC 29401. Dans aims to retire deep state operative and perpetual warmonger Lindsey Graham, promising real change for South Carolina.
Local press are invited to attend this historic campaign launch to hear Dans outline his vision for South Carolina and the nation. Media check-in begins at 10:30 AM. Please RSVP to press@pauldans.com or call 843-605-1031 to confirm attendance.
"Lindsey Graham has betrayed South Carolina conservatives for the last time," Dans said. "While he schemes with the D.C. swamp to send billions overseas and push for endless wars, I've been at work to enable President Trump to implement the America First agenda that's reshaping America into the country we have always dreamed of. Graham talks – I act."
As director of Project 2025 at the Heritage Foundation, Dans crafted a conservative policy framework that is transforming Trump’s second term. His blueprint has driven the elimination of woke DEI programs, restored biological truth in federal policy, and reinstated service members fired for refusing COVID vaccines. President Trump called these policies "home runs" and "more than we could have even dared hope for."
Recent polling shows Graham’s critical vulnerability, with approval ratings among Republicans trailing other South Carolina GOP officials by double digits.
"Other minor candidates will run, but I'm the only one with the experience, track record, and determination to send Lindsey Graham into permanent retirement," Dans said. "South Carolina has had enough. We deserve a Senator who fights for our values, not the
military-industrial complex. A Senator who secures our border, not one who defends illegal immigration. A Senator who puts America, not Ukraine or any other foreign nation, first."
Dans brings strong credentials: an MIT graduate, University of Virginia Law School alumnus, former Trump administration official, and intellectual leader of the conservative movement. His Project 2025 work has influenced dozens of executive orders in Trump’s first 100 days.
"It's time to retire these warmongers and elect real patriots," Dans said. “South Carolina will lead the way."
