Guest Column: South Carolina’s ‘Freedom Caucus’ Tilting At Windmills
Micah Caskey: “The self-proclaimed constitutionalists are searching for an activist judge who will re-write our laws.”

As usual all BS from another liberal lawyer/legislator.
Never run to the federales if you claim to espouse “Liberty,” especially the judicial branch.
Another blast from the ‘almost democratic’ house…..spewing the party line while they, themselves…..continue to do nothing.
I think someone needs to look DEEP into RJ May’s Shenanigans. It is like a cartoon show watching the interaction between him and Myscgop go on. And if we could please all quit getting the silly text messages smearing all of the fellow Republicans. Half the time from made up groups! It is pathetic. The SC Freedom Caucus is embarassing. And nothing like the House Freedom Caucus in DC. It is cringeworthy.
Voters vote Republican because they expect the purported conservative legislator they supported to vote that way. Too often, however, this is not the case – an R votes with the Left, destroying the voter’s confidence and allowing another conservative value to be defeated. The voter did his part; the legislator he supported did not.
The Freedom Caucus takes a strong conservative stand and opposes members of their party who do not.This is gutsy, and opens them up for criticism by legislators such as Micah Caskey.
As a caucus, the Freedom Caucus could raise its own money, hire a staff, etc., as the other four caucuses do, and get its message out.
It is clear that the majority of SC voters oppose Trans women in Women’s sports, the lack of action taken regarding Ohio’s rail disaster and toxic chemical spill, lawlessness throughout cities, censored speech, etc. Litigation can not be reserved for Micah Caskey’s approval, and, regarding his criticism of FITSNews, if Caskey needs a ‘news outlet’ to criticize for its one-sided coverage, he has only to look at main stream media.
Caskey is the “new” republican party in SC and he is the epitome of what is wrong in the SC statehouse…..
