The voters of this state have elected a Republican majority in their state House of Representatives since 1994, and a Republican majority in the state Senate
since 2000. They have held the governor’s office 29 of the last 33 years. All of the state constitutional offices have been in Republican hands the entire 21st century except for one term of the Supt.of Education. Instead of railing about a few powerful rich people and lawyers running the state, ask yourself this: Who do you think is enabling these people who are holding the state back and enriching themselves at the expense of the working people? Certainly not the Democratic Party. You and your fellow Freedom Caucus colleagues who run under the Republican banner year after year need to admit to yourselves: “We have met the enemy and he is us!”
Why not bail on the failed group of “never weres” known as the Freedom Caucus and step out on your own then? no sychophantic support of policy because it’s “conservative”. Support the policy because it makes sense. Speak truth even when it makes “your side” look bad. do what’s right because (gasp, clutching my pearls) it’s right.
People still want to play the party games. One side or the other, rather than realizing an outsider is holding office spitting out the truth on the corruption under the dome. Everybody thinks their guy is great and not a problem. Ask yourselves what has the SC legislature done for the actual citizens in this state? They are good at handing out corporate welfare, selecting judges to be manipulated by lawyer/legislators, getting money for their special pet projects,aka earmarks. Citizens? yep we are second place.

Referencing Charlie Kirk like he was some hero tells us quite a bit about you. I am sorry he died (because unlike most of the assholes on this site I don’t believe in the death penalty) but he was a jackass and so are you if you idolize a guy like that.

Is Joe also one of the Freedom Caucus members who refused to testify under other about RJ MAY?
Wish we had more Joe Whites in Columbia.
