Center For Public Integrity Drops Bombshell On SC General Assembly

WEBSITE DELVES INTO PALMETTO STATE’S LEGISLATIVE CORRUPTION …

|| By FITSNEWS || Late in the day on a Friday – for publication in its Saturday editions – The (Charleston, S.C.) Post and Courier ran the first installment of a joint investigation with the Center for Public Integrity.

Entitled “Capital Gains,” the investigation alleges that “South Carolina elected officials and candidates have what amounts to a personal ATM that dispensed nearly $100 million since 2009 for such things as car repairs, football tickets, male-enhancement pills, GoPro cameras, overseas junkets and gasoline.”

Lawmakers also “used this cash machine to hire their own companies, pay parking tickets, purchase an AARP membership – and even buy a used BMW convertible for ‘parades.'”

Many of the allegations – and the names of those “leaders” accused of corrupt behavior – are not new to readers of this website.

For example, three of the names mentioned in the report – S.C. Reps. Rick Quinn, Gilda Cobb-Hunter and Jimmy Merrill – have also been mentioned in connection with an ongoing joint federal-state probe into legislative corruption.

Exclusively unearthed by this website last September – “the probe” brought down former S.C. Speaker of the House Bobby Harrell nearly a month later.  The powerful legislative leader resigned his office after pleading guilty to six ethics violations – receiving three years of probation, hefty fines and a ban on seeking office for the duration of his punishment.

Other House members referenced in the “Capital Gains” report? S.C. Reps. Alan Clemmons, Bill Sandifer, Davey Hiott and Brian White, among others.

S.C. Senator Hugh Leatherman is the highest ranking official mentioned in the document – which zeroes in on his use of more than $109,000 in campaign funds between August 2009 and August 2015 on “constituent gifts,” “Christmas ornaments” and “constituent flowers.”  This website exclusively reported on those expenditures (here and here).

Left out of the report, though?  Leatherman’s more “concrete” corruption.

S.C. governor Nikki Haley got dinged, too, for receiving $380,000 worth of free University of South Carolina and Clemson University football tickets – which the report concluded “appears to be allowed under state law.”  Of course the story – written by Tony Bartelme and Rachel Baye – failed to point out Haley provided Clemson’s football coaches with use of the state plane to travel to recruiting destinations.

That scandal also broke exclusively on this website.

According to the Center for Public Integrity/ Post and Courier report, numerous lawmakers and candidates “cloak expenditures with vague terms such as ‘travel,’ ‘unknown’ and ‘incidentals.’ It shows how they follow a murky ethics rulebook that allows nearly unlimited spending.”

Indeed …

The report also addresses the corrupt “self-policing” mechanism that we’ve been exposing for years – in which lawmakers have exempted themselves from the jurisdiction of an independent ethics commission by establishing their own legislative ethics committees.  Not surprisingly, these committees have proven adept at whitewashing and burying scandals in the past.

Bottom line?  There’s a ton of new information contained in this report – as well as information which will capably amplify or supplement stories published previously by this website and other media outlets.

Oh, and this is just the first installment … there’s more to come.

Loving what? I read it:

http://www.postandcourier.com/
“To be sure, many lawmakers fulfill their public duties with honesty and without milking their campaign accounts and other sources. The Post and Courier/Center for Public Integrity investigation found that many expenditures, reimbursements and gifts were perfectly appropriate transactions related to campaigning, policy exploration and simple expenses related to being in the public eye. Others were legal but of questionable judgment. And some appeared to cross clear ethical lines.”

No mention of illegal behavior in that article.

What a great report by The Post and Courier and the Center for Public Integrity, a nonprofit, nonpartisan investigative news groups based in Washington , D.C. It exposes violations by elected officials and the murky ethics laws of S.C. Campaign funds for personal use.. obtain an economic interest for himself, a family member, an individual with whom he is associated, or a business with which he is associated. Clear and easy to understand… Loftis violated that law… Herb Hayden… Where are you?

Who is Sam Griswold?

Ted September 26, 2015 at 12:13 pm

Sam Griswold is a left wing, big government shill for the investment Commission and its Commissioner Reynolds Williams. Sam Griswold parrots their words and has watched the state lose billion of dollars of the retirees money while saying “at-a-boy to the press and shareholders groups.

Sam seems to think that SC’s status as the public pension plan with the worst rate of return is a good thing. (Of their peer group of public pension plans SC is dead last- of approx. 70 plans!)

Sam seems to think that underperforming by $7 billion dollars over the last 10 years is a good thing. (taxpayers and government employees must pay that loss)

Sam seems to think Treasurer Loftis is bad because Treasurer Loftis has for 4 years called out the sorry state of the investment Commission and its plan and predicted its financial failure…which is exactly what has happened.

Sam Griswold is a big government insider that loves being close to big money, loves big spending government and hates physical conservatives.

Sam Griswold blogs under anonymous names and in no friend to the truth or decorum.

Can anyone say Sam Griswold is not a big government crony that has cost this state a fortune?

Dan September 26, 2015 at 1:30 pm

I think I remember Griswold. If i recall correctly he was the kind of guy that always knew how to get something for himself regardless of the situation. Greedy guy. Run off from several state agencies but always found a way back.

He is a cockroach. Will be here, grabbing other people’s stuff, for hundreds and hundreds of years.

Hundredsofyears September 26, 2015 at 4:38 pm

Really, hundreds and hundreds of years? Seek help, Loftis… and get lost

Fired September 27, 2015 at 6:54 am

Loftis was run off several state agencies. He was fired by Eckstrom and was fired by Andre Bauer… He was the guy always out to get something for himself… He cannot get along with people… All he does is scream and he thinks that this is the way to show power.. What a sorry individual. A barking dog… with an ugly butt.

Sillyrabbitloftis September 29, 2015 at 5:23 pm

Loftis walked away from two $100,000 state jobs within 6 months and was paid less than $30 K by the comptroller general to be the director of transparency, which indicates he was on the payroll for about four months.. It is clear that he made only a minor contribution to the transparency issues..He left the Council of aging in a shambles. He walked away or was fired , or was forced to go…Those who worked for him thought him the biggest fool they had ever seen. This ideologue has no idea about managing people or leading an agency. In 2010… in 2015… no better..

Ted = Loftis. From forum 1/19/04 Serbia orthodox Church. ” I would like tomato something very clear to anyone reading this absurd tirade of abuse started by Me. Curtis Loftis of the Saluda Trust in SC… Attacks like this orchestrated by Mr Curtis Loftis an American citizenliving in South Carolina are hardly the type of publicity American
citizens need especially at this difficult time in American history.
The accusations by Mr Loftis are completely unfounded, they are
heinous and self motivated. I have spoken directly to Mr Loftis and
urged him to withdraw these accusations and if he has a case to take
it through the appropriate channels.
Hopefully the attorney general’s office will soon seek interview with
Mr Loftis.”
Difficult to believe that Loftis and the attorney general are mentioned in the same sentence in 2004. The attorney general and Loftis are mentioned in the same sentence in 2015… Heinous Loftis…

Are you describing Sam? Mental problems? Violent temper? Lies? Hmmm.

Well, Sam Griswold is back. Sam admitted two nights ago that he has been annonymously writing about Loftis for 4 years.

For 4 years the cronies of the investment commission have posted filthy, hateful lies about Loftis. They are the worst investment commission in the country and the post this filth about Loftis.

Sam Griswold, you are a mature and educated man. Why do you do terrible things? Are you being paid by Reynolds Williams and his cronies?

Slander/Defamation are serious charges.
Ted, you would have to be Curtis Loftis to be so obsessed here.
If I were Griswold, I’d file a suit against you and in the Discovery process get the IP address of the person posting these statements.
Curtis is upset about the Ethics Complaint filed against him. He is concerned with what will happen when this all becomes public info.
Curtis is a public figure, Griswold is not. Griswold has more grounds for a case, especially since the findings by the State Ethics Commission.
It I were Ted, I’d be very concerned. If Ted is Curtis, I’d be even more concerned, with this Slanderous, Defamation he is posting.
Would you like to post about the findings of the Ethics Commission? I doubt it since you agreed to the findings!

Yes, Slander/defamation are serious charges . 1/20/04.. Joe lines says: I must stop this fraudster, Curtis Loftis posting under different alias. This man is very unwise and thinks that he can get away by creating another alias. He is wrong I have technical proof that Curtis Loftis is:
RichinUS2003 (richin…@yahoo.com and
Cloftis (clo…@saludachritable.com)
Firstly you should know that every computer connected to the internet is assigned a unique number known as an internet protocol (IP) address. … This proves that Curtis Loftis is RichinUS 2003 . Warning. He is a fraud and his allegations and everything about him must be considered FAKE. I think this has proved that his messages are lies. He has been exposed.”
Yes, the IP address found that Curtis Loftis was posting under different alias… In 2004. In 2015 .. We will stop this fraudster, Curtis Loftis posting under different alias. WHAT a SHAME… Loftis is an elected constitutional officer of the fine state of SC.
Elected and sworn to defend and protect the constitution of SC. and of the United States. Impeach the fool.. Now in 2015. We know him.. and we are sick of him….

Must be sad to live a life like that. Then again, it may not be these folks at all. There are lots of others out to get you–some who work right in your office. Yes, right there. Where do you think our information comes from?? And you would be really surprised how high up in your office they are. Yes, yes, you have no secrets, none at all. And then there are the 57 people you have run off from the Treasurer’s Office. This is a 95% turnover rate in 5 years (oh, yes, ONE of those people died). That is certainly not normal for state government. Says something about the top man and his management. Those folks don’t like your pejorative ways and your abuse. You think they are not out to get you? You have more problems than even your paranoid mind can imagine. Wait, Curtis, just wait….and your ranting on Fits News just encourages all those folks because it is clear we are getting to you. So go on–name names and wait for the inevitable result…Gotta love it! Oh, and where are all those names you are going to publish on WVOC 560 which you promised to publish on 9/26/2015 of the “good and the bad?” Waiting for that list. Hope nobody sues you.

How about Casa Carolina in Positano. Owned by Ed McMullen. Loftis spent a month there in November 2014.. Not a bad deal for a pay to play… Ed McMullen does the advertising for Future scholars program… How much money goes to Ed… a lot , very expensive to be on TV so many times.

Paying parking tickets for campaign workers is allowed under the ethics law.
It is a normal and customary practice in business. And the grand total was $35.oo. Kinda hard to see why that was listed.

Reply
Jet September 25, 2015 at 7:47 pm

Kinda odd they included a legal expense and one involving such a small amount of money. Parking tickets happen and they must be paid and it seems to reason that the entity for whom the work was done should pay that expense. Just saying.

BTW, It is legal and customary to pay such bills.

Too bad you do not care about the $7 billion dollars given to Wall Street by our pension fund as a result of terrible investment performance.

Too bad you don’t care that we paid $2.5 billion in fees to Wall Street.

Yea, Sam Griswold, you keep after that $35 dollars for parking tickets. That will solve all our problems.

There are vile and despicable aspects to Loftis that ultimately result in him alienating and repulsing those with whom he is in contact.
Here is an example : His favorite joke is ; What do you tell a blonde with two black eyes? Answer: Nothing, you’ve already told her twice and she is not listening. ”

May 19/2010. from Voting under the influence. ” Curtis Loftis has a chemical imbalance that destroys his efforts. The problem with the man is tat he embraces deceitful tactics, has a bullying personality .. and thinks he is the smartest person in the room and everyone else is not, due to a character flaw. He walkaway from two $100,000 state jobs within six months and was paid less than $30k by the comptroller to ba director of transparency, which indicates he was on the payroll for about four months… It is clear that he made only a minor contribution to transparency. If elected, expect a public boil down when his meds wear off. He has monumental rages, screaming, asserting himself very aggressively into people’s personal space, and throwing his weight around in a way that destroy any future cooperation… ”

Don’t even need my new signiture on this one. It’s all in there.

The tide is about to turn down around here, no matter how long it takes for the resignations and perp walks to begin.

Some of the old money in Myrtle Beach has now had it up to the eyeballs with with these grotesque jerks in charge of MB now, and are moving to pull the plug on their machine. That includes some who were with them in the past, but now clearly see that they are destroying the prosperity that they worked so hard to build over the years, and for the most part are doing it for the further empowerment and enrichment of one or two men, via the massive real estate fire sales they created with the SCAM of “ChamberGate”.

That the main money-man of that corrupt cabal, who I shall not name here (others are invited to do so if they choose) is the lesser son of one of the founders of the city will not stay these powerful men from doing what must be done. (continued) ok Boz?

But this is very real, it’s very serious, and it spells the beginning of the end of the reign of terror that we’ve all been through in recent years.

The first resignations and first indictments from the US DOJ will speed it along, for sure … but what has promted this corrective action by wiser elders is simply how damned painfully obvious it is that they have taken our once-great beach resort straight down the crapper in an alarmingly short period of time — and now threated to take the entire county down with it if they are not pulled up short, and SOON!

Anyway you look at it … the times they are a-changin’ (again!)

Jeffy01, this ain’t the piddling, corrupt SC Ethics Commission with their thumbs up their asses, or the understaffed and underfunded (and by no means immune to pressures from the Good Old Boys) SLED we’re talking about here, ya know. It’s da Feds, pal.

I defy you to cite one single historical instance where the FBI and the IRS have jointly investigated a case like this for over a year and nothing ever came of it. That is just a tired line that is being spouted locally and in Columbia by people who fervently WISH it would all go away, for whatever reason, and dirty pols who hope they can buy back some diminished political capital between now and November by convincing enough people that this total line of bullshit it true.

It’s just like the idiotic assertion by Brad Dean of the MBACC that MB out-performed Orlando in the last few months, or David Brittain, one of the two likely sources of almost ALL the donations in question, claiming we had the best Summer in 50 years. Nothing but smoke and mirrors.

Investigations of this kind do not even get to the point they were at when first this one was first reported by the Sun News and FITS unless they already basically know what happened and who the perps are.

Everything that comes after that is just making the evil dooers sweat and getting more of ’em to rat each other out, etc., to make a better and stronger case for DOJ.

Thank you, Richard, I’ve got a blog in the works but it’s not ready for prime time yet. Meanwhile, I’m on Facebook, http://www.facebook.com/bozthe

For a week starting Tuesday I’m concentrating on nothing but entertainment while I disengage from so much seriocity and re-tool/re-boot my comedy career. Even perp-walks with Barrett and Dawson and Kelly leading the way will not draw me back into the poliitcal shit during that time.

Yes. VIERS too.

He HAD to have known from DAY FUCKING ONE that the law would be struck down, because EVERYONE knew it was ILLEGAL AS HELL but the City of MB passed it anyway. Even THEY knew it was illegal and would be struck down, and they have said as much.

The only purpose of the helmet law, besides more or less temporarilly depressing the economy to allow for the buy-up by the cabal and their International investors of “distressed property” was to make it APPEAR that both bike rallies were being treated equally, thus appeasing the NAACP. Reason for that: It’s common knowlege that the vast majority of black Bikfest attendeed wear helmets anyway — it’s only an issue with the mostly white Harley riders.

In the beginning of the whole Take Back May and Brad Tax scheme … hell, let’s just go ahead and get the name out there … David Brittain said it was to be done to get control of the black riders at Bikefest … and when that rally was under control HE WOULD PAY to bring the white Harley riders back.

Goes to RICO! Pols conspire with lawmakers and business leaders to pass an ordinance they KNOW to be illegal, and money changes hands all over the county and state to buy votes or reward the lawmakers for them.

Any way that could have happened without THAD VIERS’ total involvement?

OH HELL NO!!!

Ok Boz.

Let’s do the math
Based on the excerpts below $96 was spent over 6 1/2 years, 3 House election cycles, one Senate cycle, two cycles for constitutional officers (by 700 candidates (179 elected officials) for both legitimate and questionable campaign expenditures.

During this time 436 elections occured. For the 2014 governors election alone, $16,362,113 was raised. I didn’t find the amount for 2010, but with a runoff, competitive primaries and more viable candidates it probably cost at least the same. That means one third of all expenses were on the governor’s races. That leaves $64 million for 434 elections. Molly Spearman spent $130,000 alone for one of eight constitutional offices. It would probably be conservative to assume half as much is spent on the other eight statewide constitutional offices together as for the governor’s races. That leaves $48 million for 418 elections. $114,832 per GA election-office and, taking out about 30 constitutional candidates, $71,642 per GA candidate. This does not include primaries or runoffs separately.

Every Assemblyman represents 30,000 adults and every Senator represents 80,000 adults. I ask do these amounts exspenses sound unreasonable? Is there unethical spending and mutual back scratching? Yes. Is reform needed? Yes. Is there a $100 million slush fund? No.

The Center, examined filings covering 2009 through mid-2015 from political committees, constitutional officers, state representatives and state senators, as well as candidates seeking those elective offices.

To be sure, many lawmakers fulfill their public duties with honesty and without milking their campaign accounts and other sources. The Post and Courier/Center for Public Integrity investigation found that many expenditures, reimbursements and gifts were perfectly appropriate transactions related to campaigning, policy exploration and simple expenses related to being in the public eye.

Between January 2009 and last month, more than 700 candidates for state office in South Carolina shelled out at least $96 million from their campaign war chests. The money is supposed to be used to cover the costs of running for office and carrying out their duties, once elected.

Indeed, an independent ethics commission with members not appointed by the governor… A true ethics commission which can enforce the ethics laws… At first glance, South Carolina’s ethics laws seem straightforward; ” No candidate,committee,public official or political party may use campaign funds to defray personal expenses which are unrelated to the campaign or the office if the candidate is an officeholder nor may these funds be converted to personal use ” Simple and clear… Herb Hayden… You understand that… Don’t you?
