Do We Believe All Women Now?
Don’t worry, there will be no more “new scandals,” according to Graham Platner. The embattled Maine Democrat Senate candidate has assured us all that there won’t be any more scandals. Does that mean he is validating the other ones?
It’s been pretty interesting watching this guy’s past unfold. He had a Nazi tattoo which he covered up once he got involved in Maine politics. He was on the Kick app, which is apparently where sexual predators hang out. He sent many raunchy texts to women that were not his wife. He started cheating on his wife almost immediately after they were married. He is on record laughing at and mocking Purple Heart recipients. And recently, he was accused by multiple women of physical sexual misconduct. According to one of them, he said he would “rape home intruders” to show them that he is dominant. He allegedly said it would not be gay, but a demonstration of power. Sounds like a real classy guy.
Socialism is For You. Not Them.
Aside from having arguably the worst candidates, the party has ever put up, the Democrat party principles they stand on would not be recognized by the Democrat party of yesteryear. Indeed, JFK would be shown the door by today’s radical left. New York city had Ed Koch in the 1980s, now it has Zohran Mamdani. Bill Clinton once uttered the phrase, “The era of big government is over.” No Democrat would say that today. Radical members of the Senate and House who openly preach socialism were unheard of forty years ago. Not only does it show how far we’ve fallen as a society, but patriotism in this country, once shared by both parties, is now at an all-time low.
Capitalism isn’t perfect. There are winners and losers, and those are most often determined by the people and how hard they work. But with socialism, there are no winners except the ones imposing it. “Socialism is for the people, never the socialist,” is an oft-uttered phrase by one of my favorite radio hosts – Andrew Wilkow. And he could not be more accurate. Capitalists are eager to practice their own system. But how many that want socialism are first in line to sign up for their own ideas? May as well be looking for a needle in a haystack.

Trump’s Terrible Endorsements Continue, Further Alienating Conservatives
President Trump’s horrible endorsements in the state of South Carolina continued last night. He is already backing warmongering Lindsey Graham for senate, with his 43% conservative voting record. Now he’s decided to back Pamela Evette for governor, the current sitting Lieutenant Governor, and the absolute worst candidate of all six on the ballot.
Evette, who was involved in the underground group who plotted to steal the Horry County GOP from actual conservative leadership (goppirates.weluvgolf.com) is the furthest thing from a conservative on the Republican slate. She is a crooked career politician. Rumor has it she is going to introduce Henry McMaster Jr. as her running mate to continue the stranglehold of rino power in this state, although Governor and Lieutenant Governor are voted on separately. She likes to say “Go woke, go broke” in public, but behind the scenes she is a supporter of DEI policy (https://nancymace.org/dei-pam/). An Evette administration would be nothing more than continuity of the one we have now, which shut down the state in 2020, told you to mask up, and tried to put Anthony Fauci 2.0 (Ed Simmer) in charge of the state’s health decisions.
President Trump’s endorsements in the state of South Carolina are worse than any of the other 49 states. He gets it wrong here every single time.
Conservatism: Fighting the Left AND the Establishment
The establishment is full of fakery. Phony people acting like they are on the side of righteousness and truth when they are not. This is something that has become much more apparent to me since I moved. Since South Carolina is such a red state, there are many areas where Democrats cannot get elected. The solution? Do what state senator Luke Rankin did. Switch your party and run as a Republican while not changing the way you vote or represent the people. South Carolina is often referred to as the “bluest red state” in the nation, and with good reason. It turns out very little conservative legislation, and the reason is because the politicians are pulling the wool of the eyes of their constituents. It’s the reason we get people like Lindsey Graham, with his lifetime 43% conservative voting record. These people would run as Democrats if this was a blue state. They would have to. These people go wherever the winds are blowing, which takes no courage whatsoever. We conservatives fight uphill battles consistently, while they support the candidates with the most money. The ones with the biggest PACs. The ones who are the most easily controllable. They sacrifice their morals and their souls to back people with political power. The citizens are merely an afterthought.
