The SOTU Made Trump Look Great and Democrats Look Terrible
President Trump knocked it out of the park last night. He stayed on point, had great guests, and nailed down every point he needed to. He also masterfully handed the Democrat party their rear ends. Democrats showed their true colors, as they refused to stand for the USA Men’s gold medal-winning hockey team, the Olympics coming to America in 2028, Anna Zarutska - the mother of Iryna Zarutska who was murdered by a man who was arrested and released 14 times, George “Buddy” Taggart - a heroic World War II veteran, Scott Ruskin - a rescuer of over 100 girls during the Texas floods, Erika Kirk (and the mention of Charlie), lower drug prices, no tax on tips or overtime (a boon to the middle class they always claim they are defending), Sarah Beckstrom (who was ambushed and murdered close to the White House by a radical Islamic terrorist while defending Washington DC, Andrew Wolfe (Beckstrom’s partner who got shot in the head and miraculously made a full recovery), Venezuelans no longer starving, natural gas production at an all-time high, massive job creation in the private sector, ending job-killing regulations, and getting people off food stamps, and many other instances in which any human with a soul would not have thought twice before standing. Several of them tried to scream and yell as they usually do, but Trump wisely drowned them out with his speech, speaking over them. Al Green again had to be shown the door as he tried to race bait and divide with his disingenuous sign. (I’m old enough to remember when Joe Wilson yelled “You lie” during one of Barack Obama’s States of the Union, and it was a huge controversy. He even apologized very soon after. Today’s left does this kind of thing with impunity, not having to worry about any consequences. The media will not call them out. They’ll likely be praised.)
The President hit so many great points that needed to be heard. First, by stating our nation is back, he drew the line between his return and the disaster that was the Biden administration. Inflation is down, salaries are up, police and military are “stacked,” prices (including gas and eggs) are down, and the border is secure. This is all big stuff. Accentuating no tax on tips and overtime was a nod to the middle class. Democrats try to paint him as favoring the rich, but his actions would indicate otherwise. A “turnaround for the ages” as he described it.
The Unpatriotic Forces Strike Again
Imagine being in the best financial position relative to the world in fifty years. Imagine having the highest amount of investment in the United States ever. Imagine being in a position of payback after years of being ripped off by other countries. Imagine finally being paid by other nations of the UN and NATO after footing their bills for so long. All of this can easily be imagined because we finally have a president who isn’t a doormat.
Now imagine being so unpatriotic that you’d want to see an end to all that. That’s exactly what six Supreme Court Justices did on Friday. In the past year, the United States has been built up to be in its best financial position on years. And just when Trump, a populist anti-establishment figure does something good for the country, there come the establishment insiders to restore the balance.
The left cannot stand when this country does well.

Don’t Let the Establishment Fool You With Their Fake Closed Primary Bill
The South Carolina fake Republican party led by Drew McKissick is trying to pull the wool over your eyes once again.
Back in April and May, while he was cheating his way into another two years as party chair by shutting out conservative Pickens County from the state convention, Drew McKissick made a promise that most of us saw through back then. He made a claim that he would close the primaries here in South Carolina. Anyone with an ounce of intelligence knew this was an empty promise, because it would end most of the rinos in the state house, as they would no longer be able to court Democrat votes.
South Carolina - A Triad of Voter Fraud
There is a three-headed monster in the state of South Carolina that takes the integrity out of elections. If we are able to get rid of these three things, our state government would be much more representative of South Carolina residents. There is a reason why the state only turns out about 40% conservative legislation, despite the fact the people are far more conservative than that. In 2024, South Carolina went 58-40 for President Trump. It’s clear that the people are more conservative than the politicians, by far.
The three threats to election integrity are open primaries, voting machines, and non-partisan elections. The good ‘ol boy establishment rinos here in South Carolina run circles to prevent these items from changing. They also grant power to Democrats when they should have none.
