VIDEOIt's a distinctive accent unique to Charleston, South Carolina. And the late Senator Fritz Hollings was the best known of its speakers. His passing marked perhaps the last of those who spoke Charlestonian. You most likely will never hear it again except in recordings and videos such as this of Hollings speaking.

It’s hard to believe the great Flood of 1916 that ravaged Western North Carolina took place over 100 years ago. The Flood still lives on in the hearts and minds of Asheville area citizens, and it is still known as ‘the flood to end all floods’. The Asheville Citizen, using a borrowed gasoline engine to run its presses, described the devastation caused by The Flood in its July 17, 1916, edition:“Exacting an unknown toll of death, with a property loss exceeding three million dollars, Asheville today is absolutely isolated from the outside world, is a city of darkness void of...

Representative James Clyburn (D-SC) said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that former President Donald Trump was closely tied to the June 17, 2015 deadly mass shooting at Mother Emanuel AME Church in Charleston, SC. Anchor Jake Tapper said, “Let’s start with President Biden’s trip to tomorrow to historic Mother Emanuel church. What are you hoping to hear from President Biden and is it fair to tie in any way what happened at the Emanuel AME church to Donald Trump? Donald Trump had barely launched his campaign when that attack happened.”

Charleston-area deputies were called to a neighborhood at about 10:30 p.m. and found a man lying in a road.

It must be another FBI freshman pledge weekend. The Patriot Front “white supremacist” group went marching in Charleston, West Virginia this weekend. They found a drummer for this weekend’s march and they were chanting something but it was hard to understand. This sounds about right: You know they’re feds because the mainstream media has absolutely no interest in outing them. [Wall Street Silver @WallStreetSilv How can you be sure they are Feds? Because the legacy news media is not spending any effort to unmask or destroy their lives. The corporate media was told to ignore this by their handlers at...

Harvard University’s chief diversity and inclusion officer has been hit with dozens of plagiarism allegations tied to her academic work — including one claim she failed to properly cite her own husband’s study. The Ivy League school was handed an anonymous complaint on Monday listing at least 40 examples of alleged plagiarism by Sherri Ann Charleston dating back to 2009 — a decade before she joined Harvard, the Washington Free Beacon reported.

It's not just Claudine Gay. Harvard University's chief diversity and inclusion officer, Sherri Ann Charleston, appears to have plagiarized extensively in her academic work, lifting large portions of text without quotation marks and even taking credit for a study done by another scholar—her own husband—according to a complaint filed with the university on Monday and a Washington Free Beacon analysis. The complaint makes 40 allegations of plagiarism that span the entirety of Charleston's thin publication record. In her 2009 dissertation, submitted to the University of Michigan, Charleston quotes or paraphrases nearly a dozen scholars without proper attribution, the complaint alleges....

*** Biden traveled to Charleston where he appeared at the historic Mother Emanuel AME Church, as he tries to shore up his 2024 support with black voters. While at one point, he was interrupted by pro-Palestinian protesters shouting 'ceasefire now,' he was also awarded with cheers when he called Trump a 'loser' and chants of 'four more years.' 'So let me be clear for those who don't seem to know: Slavery was the cause of the Civil War,' Biden said, earning applause. 'There was no negotiation about that.' Last month, Haley - the former governor of South Carolina - stepped...

Although most people think of Charleston, South Carolina, as a charming historic city (it is one of the world’s top vacation destinations), it was also one of the pivotal players in the American Revolution. Now, to the extent that we’re seeing a second American Revolution playing out, one that centers around the left’s desire to control and destroy our children, South Carolina is again playing a role. I wrote before about the school board battle and Moms for Liberty. This time, the war involves the mayoral battle and…Moms for Liberty. Moms for Liberty, as you know, has a very simple...

Tuesday, August 30, 2011, 3:25 PM Glenn Beck opened the first hour of his three-hour show today by calling attention to a plan by extreme leftists to bring disruption to daily life in Washington, D.C. during October. (It is presumed that the mostly white “duuuude, let's like protest” crowd in October will not have the level of equal-opportunity courage require to venture toward creating chaos in predominantly-black areas of predominantly-black Washington, D.C.) Beck, who for much of the previous two weeks, was in Israel as part of his “Restoring Courage” solidarity event, started his show by saying “There’s a disturbing...

So…this is an unusual question one might ask about a presidential candidate, but nevertheless, it happened. Washington Post reporter Ben Terris spoke with Sen.

Scott is now prepared to enter the 2024 Republican primary, and...

Yo, this is a pretty wild video out of Charleston County, South Carolina, and it tells you a whole lot about what police officers are faced with on a daily basis. This may seem like your everyday traffic stop — the car being pulled over for swerving — however, the man in the passenger seat is a convicted felon, and officers spoke with him for about five minutes before asking him to get out of the vehicle. Here's what happened when they did that (I'm going to warn you that while you don't see blood, the perp gets smoked in...
