Another month, another abysmal report on inflation. Filling up with gasoline?  Average gas prices in South Carolina are up 30% from this time a year ago.  If your mid-sized car drinks 13 gallons of fuel weekly, you’re now on track to pay $400 more over the next 12 months for gas. Forget about fuel for a minute – let’s just hope you don’t need to buy another vehicle!  If… Read more »

The Cuban people deserve freedom!! The evils of socialism have DECIMATED that nation to the point where it's difficult to even find food or medicine. And the people there have had enough! It's not hard for the Cuban people to imagine how much better their lives could be without the tyranny of their communist government. And I stand firmly behind their fight for liberty!! Read more »

I’m absolutely NOT voting to raise the debt ceiling later this month. No way. You might hear news about this in the coming weeks. Here’s an analogy. Imagine being up to your eyeballs in debt. With each passing month you borrow more & more to cover your out-of-control spending, and the amount you have to pay each month on interest alone exceeds your housing and… Read more »

When proponents of Critical Race Theory (CRT) freak out and don’t know how to handle themselves in the wake of the MASSIVE backlash against their philosophy, we typically hear things like “that’s not being taught in our schools” or “that’s not CRT” or “you don’t know what you’re talking about.” But the truth is CRT is a dangerous philosophy that deserves to be confronted and exposed at… Read more »

Another OUTSTANDING ruling earlier this morning by the Supreme Court. This one concerns election integrity laws in Arizona, a decision which will likely have nation-wide impact. Here’s the backstory. There’s a section in the Voting Rights Act of 1965 – it’s called “Section 2” – which outlaws discriminative voting practices. That’s an oversimplified explanation, but… Read more »

At the airport now, heading to join President Trump at the southern border.    Within just six months of his successor taking office, apprehensions of illegal immigrants have now SOARED to 20-year highs. This will be my third trip to inspect conditions along the southern border and as I’ve said before, this is not gross incompetence on the part of President Biden.… Read more »

*** UPDATE JULY 15th *** My original post below has been updated/edited to reflect information that was released by the RHPD later in their investigation, following the department’s initial statements on June 24th. Despite these updates, as I have said repeatedly, law enforcement officers who serve their communities with honor and dignity will always have my respect. Their work is… Read more »

THANKFULLY some good news to report this Tuesday evening. Liberals in the Senate have failed to advance the mistakenly-titled “For the People Act.” This effort is dead for now. The Democrat-controlled House passed its version of this a while back. (In case you missed it, I was a strong, vocal NO when this came up for a vote in the House.) The House’s version of this bill was a… Read more »

As fathers, we have a critical role in the lives of our children. And I would argue that for men who are blessed with children, their role as a father is more important than any career, or any other endeavor they may pursue. To all the loving, involved fathers out there, thank you and Happy Father’s Day! Read more »
