Today is the day … Tuesday January 9th, 2024 … the first day of the second half of the 2023-2024 SC Legislative Session. It is a day of hope and anxiety for many Patriots wishing to make a better South Carolina … and a day of opportunity for many self-interested “grifters” wishing to line their pockets.
We started off yesterday at the First Monday in Greenville (HERE) annual luncheon with the SC Speaker of the House. It is a ceremonial kickoff each year to the start of a new session, and Speaker Murrell Smith (HERE) presented an inspirational look at the accomplishments of the past year and a peak ahead into 2024. He spoke for just under an hour … but we could have listened for two hours as the Speaker was informative and had a notebook full of info to share.
THE SOLICITORS
However, afterwards we hit the road to Columbia for Chair Pamela Godwin’s Lexington County Republican Party’s (LCRP) monthly meeting … this time to hear Solicitors David Pascoe (D – Orangeburg), Kevin Bracket (R – York) & Rick Hubbard (R – Lexington).
[NOTE: Solicitor Pascoe led the SC Statehouse corruption investigation (HERE & HERE) several years ago that led to indictments and resignations of numerous … but in our opinion not enough … sitting legislators.]
We had Solicitor David Pascoe speak to the Greenville County Republican Party (GCRP) two years ago on January 6th, 2022 … and I personally took a lot of heat as a Republican Chairman inviting a Democrat to speak at our meeting … but “uniparty” corruption is a bi-partisan issue and we are dedicated to exposing and eliminating it here in South Carolina.
No half measures … all the way!!!
