SC Establishment Bringing Nancy Pelosi-Like Rules to SC
- By SC Freedom Caucus
If you thought the incumbent protection pledge was bad, you won't believe what the RINOs are trying to do now.
For those who don't know, the moderate establishment kicked out the 16 most conservative members of the Republican Caucus for refusing to sign a soviet-style loyalty pledge.
Listen to Glenn Beck discuss the issue HERE.
The pledge sought to silence members of the SC Freedom Caucus by prohibiting us from posting photos of the public voting board, endorsing more conservative challengers, or informing the citizens about how members of the House break their campaign promises.
House Voting on Legislation to Stop China’s Takeover of American Manufacturing
- By Eagle Forum
This week, the U.S. House of Representatives will vote on legislation to nullify a rule that allows China to manufacture electric vehicle (EV) chargers. S.J. Res. 38 uses the Congressional Review Act to reign in the powers of bureaucrats who try to use the power of the pen to rewrite existing law. Our Representatives are taking action to protect American manufacturing through this process.
The Trump administration put America first by creating policies that move American businesses away from China and prioritizing American products. When Joe Biden saw that the American people wanted this, he rode President Trump’s coattails and introduced his “Buy American” campaign plan. Some of these policies were placed into the 2021 infrastructure bill, including requiring EV chargers to be made mostly of American-made materials. Now, he’s clawing those provisions back.
GriefShare Featured in Affirm Original's Second Season of the Inspiring Series 'Going Home'
- By The Church Initiative, Inc.
WAKE FOREST, N.C. -- GriefShare, the globally recognized Christian grief support group, is honored to announce its inclusion in the upcoming second season of AFFIRM Originals' popular series "Going Home." This collaboration stems from a personal connection: the series creator and director, Dan Merchant, turned to a GriefShare group for support after the loss of his father and found it instrumental in his healing journey.
"Going Home" is a touching, episodic series that follows an inspiring team of hospice nurses who guide patients and loved ones on the ultimate journey—the transition from this world to their forever home. It's often a race against time as the team helps their clients find peace and resolve with compassion and dignity before passing. The series has earned acclaim for its authentic portrayal of end-of-life care and its powerful messages of hope and strength even in loss. In its eagerly anticipated second season, the series will delve into themes of loss, bereavement, and the journey towards healing, while highlighting how GriefShare aids individuals as they grieve.
Ballot-Blocking by States - Blue Versus Trump and Red Versus Biden
- By Winston McCuen - South Carolina
In a truly federal structure, any constituent member — whether a state or province or canton or whatever -- has the constitutional right — rooted ultimately in the sacred right of self-preservation and self-protection -- to block or to bar from the election ballot candidates it deems inimical to its interests.
This fundamental political right -- once clear and universally understood in America — is now unclear because, in the 1860s — by force of arms rather than by voluntary consent — the United States stopped being a free republic and became instead a centralized and consolidated "indivisible" empire.
Fifteen Local Executive Committeemen Presents Full Evidence Against Greenville County Republican Party Leaders
- By GCRP Executive Committee Members
On September 14, 2023 15 ECs called a Special Meeting in which four motions were presented to the body. The body voted by majority to pass each motion presented to them. Since that time the GCRP Chairman has failed to fully comply with all the motions. In addition, many narratives have been put forward that inaccurately present the facts related to those motions, the status of compliance with them, and the motives of those who continue to seek compliance from the Chairman. In order to provide clarity, we have documented a more detailed explanation of the facts related to each motion and included the supporting evidence that was discussed during the Special Meeting and that has occurred since.
We thank you for reading through the evidence. We hope that you will fully educate yourselves on the facts of this situation and become part of the solution of holding the GCRP officers to the standards of integrity and transparency that we demand from our other elected representatives.

Should There Be a Trump Litmus Test?
- By Nate Leupp, Chairman of the 4th Congressional District
On July 19, 2016, I was proud to cast my vote as one of South Carolina’s 50 delegates to the Republican National Convention, 1 of 4 delegates from Greenville County, and 1 of 2,472 from across America and our territories, to officially make Donald J. Trump our party’s nominee. Since that time, the conversation surrounding many of our candidates and grassroots activists is not who they are or what they stand for, but a fight to prove who is “more Trump.” In attempting to prove who is more Trump, the argument really isn’t which candidate is the most like him in personality or principles but has become simply who supports him the most and when they started supporting him.
In the past few primaries in South Carolina, we have seen this used as a campaign strategy at all levels. U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham would not be considered a “Trump Republican” by friend or foe, but has become a strong ally of President Trump, publicly endorsing him, and receiving his endorsement in return. While Sen. Graham strongly supports many aspects of President Trump’s agenda, his campaign message was not that he was like Trump or he shares an identical agenda, but simply that he supports Trump.
Defense Sec. Austin’s Vanishing Trick Stuns and Vexes Both Sides
- By Suzanne Bowdey - The Washington Stand
When people criticize the Biden administration’s lack of leadership, they usually don’t mean it literally. But Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin’s decision to keep his days-long hospitalization a secret from everyone (including the president) has rocked the D.C. establishment. Not since the Supreme Court leaker — a mystery that remains unsolved — has the political world been so stunned by a breach of protocol. What possible “elective surgery” could have made the chief of America’s military operations AWOL at such a critical time? And why on earth wouldn’t he tell his team?
Vietnam War Statistics
- By Mike Scruggs
Truth versus Propaganda
A few days before Christmas, the Atlanta Vietnam Veterans Business Association (AVVBA) released its new 47-minute video on The Truths and Myths of the Vietnam War. A few days later the AVVBA sent me an excellent collection of statistics on those who served in the war, including their present adjustment to American society.
As I wrote in my book, Lessons from the Vietnam War: Truths the Media Never Told You, and emphasized in an interview that became part of the video, the Vietnam War was a two-front war. There was military action going on in Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, and offshore, and there was a propaganda war going on in the United States to influence public opinion against resisting what was essentially a Soviet financed and sponsored North Vietnamese subversion and invasion of South Vietnam. The U.S. and other SEATO (Southeast Asia Treaty Organization) members were bound by the 1955 Paris Peace Treaty ending the French-Indochina War to defend South Vietnam, Laos, and if required, Cambodia, from further Communist aggression.
Anti-humans Are on the March — and They Want You GONE
- By Selwyn Duke - The New American
After it was asserted that cow flatulence contributes to “global warming,” some greentopians concluded that all animal agriculture should be ended; this, of course, means eliminating most of the cows on Earth. Given this, with a new study claiming that human breathing also contributes to global warming, should most of our planet’s people be gone, too?
Actually, this has already been suggested, with a World Economic Forum (WEF) advisor saying last year that we “don’t need the vast majority of the population” and that there was a growing class of “useless people.”
So first we heard the pejorative “useless eaters.”
Is it now “useless breathers”?

“We concluded our last session detailing the splitting apart of the original Old United States into several smaller countries, and the rise and fall of what was the most successful of those smaller countries—The Confederated Republics of America. This session will deal with what many historians call the beginning of the end of civilization on the Great Northern Continent. Similar evils were perpetrated on the Great Southern Continent during this time also, but we’ll limit the scope of this delving into man’s evil nature just to the GNC and to Euro.

Trafficking, Terrorism, and Trauma: Speaker Johnson Describes What Republicans Saw at the Border
- By Ben Johnson - The Washington Stand
During their trip to the southern border, dozens of congressmen saw a spectacle of human traffickers, military-aged men from terrorist nations, and the “unconscionable” indifference of the Biden administration to the cries of its own citizens. They returned ready to use “every ounce” of their influence to protect the victims they saw, said Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-La.).
“This is my third trip to the border, but it was the largest congressional delegation that’s ever made the trip: 64 House Republicans were there, representing 26 states and one U.S. territory,” said Speaker Johnson on “Washington Watch with Tony Perkins” the day after Wednesday’s border visit. “It really does make a difference to be there in person, on the ground, talking with the stakeholders: the patriotic, heroic Border Patrol officers and the sheriffs who are charged with keeping order down there.”

Three Economic Myths to Put To Rest This Year
- By Veronique de Rugy
As a new year dawns, it's customary to reflect on the past and set resolutions for the future. This year, let's resolve to greet three widespread claims with healthy doses of skepticism.
The first dubious claim is that income inequality in the United States has inexorably risen since the 1960s. It's a scary narrative heavily bolstered by the work of three French economists: Thomas Piketty, Emmanuel Saez and Gabriel Zucman. According to these researchers, the situation was fueled mostly by tax cuts for top income earners during the Reagan administration. Their proposed remedy, not surprisingly, is a sky-high, French-like level of taxation.
It's time to Question "The Authorities"
- By Press Release
Some of the lies that “The Authorities” told us:
- The Science is clear.
- No one is safe from Covid until everyone is safe.
- Non-essential businesses must close.
- In-person schools must close.
- Churches must close.
- The vaccine is 100% effective against Covid.
- You have no individual rights on vaccines.
- The Covid pandemic was caused by the unvaccinated.
Blue States Just Can't Stop Taxing
- By Stephen Moore
The latest Census Bureau data on population changes in America should have been a wake-up call to lawmakers in blue states and cities. The Census data provide even further evidence that "soak the rich" tax policies have incited a blue-state meltdown.
California, New York and Illinois all lost the most population last year. These states have nearly lost a combined 5 million people over the last decade. California and New York could both lose another three congressional seats by the end of the decade, and Illinois another two.
Did I mention that these are the three states with the highest taxes?
Americans Moved to Low-Tax States in 2023
- By Katherine Loughead - Tax Foundations
Americans were on the move in 2023, and many chose low-tax states over high-tax ones. That’s the finding of recent U.S. Census Bureau interstate migration data and commercial datasets released last week by U-Haul and United Van Lines.
The U.S. population grew 0.49 percent between July 2022 and July 2023, an increase from the previous year’s 0.37 percent. While international migration contributed to population growth at the national level, interstate migration was the key driver of net population changes at the state level. The U.S. Census Bureau’s most recent interstate migration estimates show that New York lost the greatest share of its population (1.1 percent) to other states between July 2022 and July 2023. Not far behind was California, which lost 0.9 percent of its residents, followed by Hawaii (0.8 percent), Alaska (also 0.8 percent), and Illinois (0.7 percent). At the other end of the spectrum, South Carolina saw the greatest population growth from net domestic inbound migration (1.6 percent), followed by Delaware (1.0 percent) and North Carolina, Tennessee, and Florida (all 0.9 percent).
House GOP Raises the Stakes: 'Shut the Border Down or Shut the Government Down'
- By Suzanne Bowdey - The Washington Stand
While the rest of Congress is soaking up the last few days of holiday recess, Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) decided to cut his vacation short, opting instead to take 60 House Republicans on a detour to the southern border before Congress resumes next week. If the goal was to remind them what they’re fighting for in the standoff on immigration with Joe Biden, it succeeded.
With December’s record-breaking migrant crossings as a backdrop, this “show of force,” as many are calling it, aims to put more pressure on the White House to negotiate on reforms in real faith. “Life along the border is turned upside down,” host Congressman Tony Gonzales (R-Texas) told reporters, “and that’s exactly what the speaker and my colleagues are going to see.”
The World Health Organization Will Implement Global Trans Policies
- By Eagle Forum
WHO Becomes Global Groomer
If you need yet another reason to oppose the World Health Organization (WHO), they are now preparing to push the transgender agenda globally. From February 19-21, 2024, a group of individuals will meet on behalf of WHO to formulate guidelines to increase access to so-called “gender-affirming” puberty blockers, hormone treatments, and surgeries regardless of age. Although this will be their first meeting, it’s clear that their minds are already made up.
South Carolina’s Income Tax Rate Is Expected to See Another Decrease in 2024
- By James Spurck, Publisher
The State’s Goal is to Reduce the Tax Rate by 0.1% until it reaches 6% from its original 7%
With South Carolina having the highest personal income tax rate in the Southeast and being the 12th highest in the nation, SC State Legislators and Governor Henry McMaster decided that it was time for an income tax cut.
In 2022, the state’s top tax rate was seven percent. That year the South Carolina Senate compromised from a desired 5.7% rate by passing along with the State House a new spending plan that would immediately lower 7% to 6.5 percent for the coming 2023 tax year. Beginning with 2024, over the next five years, it would reduce by 0.1 percent each year until it reached 6% in 2028.
Ten Peaceful Pro-Life Heroes Facing Federal Charges Should be Commended
- By Rev. Rusty Thomas, Director of Elijah Ministries
"These pro-life heroes need and deserve our support, they have mine." -- Rev. Rusty Thomas, Director, Elijah Ministries
On Tuesday, January 16th, in the year of our Lord, 2024, ten gentle Christians will appear before a Federal Court to stand trial. They are being charge with a felony based upon the draconian F.A.C.E., Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances, so-called "law."
This tyrannical law takes a misdemeanor charge, trespass, and applies federal penalties. They are facing over 10 years in a federal prison if found guilty.
What was their crime? They trespassed for dear life. They were performing our government's duty, which our government betrayed by "legalizing" the murder of the preborn. Civil government's sacred trust before Almighty God is to restrain evil, protect life, and stop the shedding of innocent blood.

Ban a Central Bank Digital Currency in South Carolina
- By The John Birch Society
South Carolina lawmakers are seeking to enact legislation banning Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) in the state.
House Bill 4373 (H.4373) is sponsored by Representative Kathy Landing (R-Mount Pleasant) and 20 other representatives. Meanwhile, House Bill 4442 (H.4442) is sponsored by Representative Bill Taylor (R-Aiken), Senate Bill 834 (S.834) is sponsored by Senator Tom Corbin (R-Travelers Rest) and two other senators, and Senate Bill 861 (S.861) is sponsored by Senator Shane Martin (R-Spartanburg).
If enacted, H.4373, H.4442, S.834, and S.861 would amend the state’s definition of money, found in the South Carolina’s Uniform Commercial Code, to exclude CBDCs — regardless of whether they are “issued by the United States Federal Reserve System, a federal agency, a foreign government, a foreign central bank, or a foreign reserve system.” The bill would also ban banking corporations from engaging in transactions involving CBDCs. This would effectively ban them within South Carolina.
