Florida Does it Better, Bad Candidates, & Bad Justices
Florida is doing it right. New York isn’t. A tale of two states, one might call it. Their populations are similar, but Florida is operating on half the budget that New York is. They have cut their budget for four straight years. Their rainy day fund is full. They have eliminated their state income tax and are working towards getting rid of their property tax. This is almost unheard of. Meanwhile, New York, with their recent communist influx, is going the other direction. Not to mention the fraud, which they want.
I’m hoping South Carolina eventually follows the Florida model, but I’m not too confident with the rinos running things here.
The Evil is Here, and They Want to Destroy Western Civilization
The new left is trying to bring about the end of western civilization. How do we know? They said it. When the enemies of America say they want to do something that will fundamentally destroy this country, we should believe them.
These evil haters of freedom are not coming. They are already here. These people are traitors, enemies to this country. They are openly talking about using violence to bring about communism in America. Darializa Avila Chevalier, one of three socialists who won primaries in New York earlier this week, has referred to America as “An f’n disgrace.” She believes deportations should not happen under any circumstance, wants to abolish prisons, ICE, police, and borders, and uses the American flag as a napkin to wipe her hands. She was a co-founder of a group called the Columbia University Apartheid Divestment Group. The group’s stated goal is the total eradication of western civilization. They also state they want to “undermine and eradicate America through the use of violence in America.”

Fake Republicans Win Again
The establishment stranglehold in the state of South Carolina continues. Democrats disguised as Republicans continue to pull the wool over the eyes of millions. I’ve lived here for five years now, and been through three primaries (2022, 2024, and 2026). All three have been major disappointments. I’ve been involved with grass roots candidates in all of them, and I watched, as ignorance ruled the day each time. This state, full of conservatives, continues to go to the ballot box and put the closest thing to a Democrat with an R after their name in power. From state representatives (mine has a 24% conservative voting record) to House Representatives (Russell Fry was the least conservative candidate on the ballot when he first won in 2022), and now Senate and Gubernatorial candidates. Lindsey Graham, the warmongering, USAID loving, 43% conservative voter will have another six years (assuming he wins the general election) to tack on to his current 24. And for governor, with six candidates on the ballot, the worst two advanced to a runoff. Pamela Evette, the DEI queen, and Alan Wilson, the failed AG.
Why does this keep happening? There are some obvious reasons, and some not so obvious ones. The most obvious one, something this blog has harped upon, is the fact that President Trump, as much as we love him, makes the absolute worst endorsements. This generally happens nationwide, but especially in this state. He gets it wrong here every single time and gets behind the most corrupt swamp rats while claiming he will drain the swamp. Here in South Carolina, he is making the swamp much deeper.
The SC Primary - Let’s Send the Establishment Packing
The South Carolina primary is TOMORROW. Please get out and vote.
I’d like to express, one more time, that we South Carolinians live in a state where the people are conservative as they come, but the politicians who run it are not. There is a good ‘ol boy rino establishment grasp on power here, and that apple cart is threatened by the people moving down here. They will lie to you, telling you people coming from the northeast and other blue states are making this state bluer, and I have proven this to be a lie before. How is it possible that states like New York, as they elect outwardly communist mayors, are getting bluer, and the states they are moving to are trending in the same direction? It’s not. It’s impossible. One of them has to be going the other way, and it’s not New York or the rest of the northeast with the likes of Zohran Mamdani and Michell Wu running the show.
News flash - the establishment lies. People like me moving down here are making this state redder, not the other way around. This blog has been a bastion of principled stands against open primaries, voting machines, and non-partisan elections. These are all things the establishment hides behind, things that continue to allow them to thrive. They are threatened by most of us that are moving down here, as we are doing so for the right reasons.
