Jim DeMint, Ellen Weaver … & Tim Scott … A Long Term Plan?

“Watch what they DO, not what they SAY.”

A legislator asked us the other day what our “beef” was with Jim DeMint & Ellen Weaver?

We don’t necessarily have a “beef” with anyone … but we do believe people should be informed as to exactly what supposedly conservative leaders DO as opposed to what they SAY.

Don’t you?

“Watch what they DO,

not what they SAY.”

We replied to this legislator with a simple question …

“Why would Jim DeMint & Ellen Weaver recommend that the SC Department of Revenue run the SC private school choice program?“

The real question is why would anyone on the planet … much less Jim DeMint & Ellen Weaver … recommend the SC Department of Revenue do anything … much less run a private school choice program?!?!?

Jim DeMint & Ellen Weaver’s Palmetto Promise Institute in May 2016 published a “Legislative Analysis” that gave South Carolina the NATION’S first 100% government run tax credit scholarship program.

It remains the Nation’s only 100% government run tax credit scholarship program … and it is rated the Nation’s worst rated private school choice program.

So why did Jim DeMint & Ellen Weaver recommend the SC Department of Revenue run the private school choice program?

Simple … #FollowTheMoney!!!

Our experience is that Jim DeMint & Ellen Weaver have been staging this financial boondoggle for their “monied special interest” backers for a very long time.

When we were first randomly introduced to Ellen Weaver in early 2014, we could tell them she was “cold”. We were novices in the political world and we were just here to make School Choice in South Carolina successful.

Ellen Weaver & Jim DeMint’s Palmetto Promise Institute had a much different plan than we did … and it all had to do with MONEY, and A LOT OF IT!!! By our analysis, just with the relatively small initial ESA bill (S 39) … over $183 MILLION net-present-value!!! (HERE).

Connecting the Dots:

FITSNEWS, April 2, 2019: … “i.e., keeping people on various payrolls as advocates” … [CONTINUE READING]

Keep connecting the dots friends … and remember … “Watch what they DO, not what they SAY!“

When you are hurting kids … especially K-12 kids with “special needs … and you are doing it apparently just for money … you need to be exposed, and that is our goal with Jim DeMint & Ellen Weaver.

You know, on second thought … maybe we do have a “beef” with Jim DeMint & Ellen Weaver!!! Maybe you should too.

P.S. Senator Tim Scott

P.S. And yes, we are saddened to report that Senator Tim Scott is intimately involved … and it is very disappointing.

If we were wrong, why won’t his Office return our calls … and why was his SC Upstate Director (and her husband) harvested Form 1 Ballots in the 2021 Greenville County Republican Party ReOrg “fraud”?

Senator Scott … if you truly cared about the kids … you would want to solve the SC School Choice Problem … something we think you could do with a phone call.

Charlie Kirk: A South Carolina Take

Assassinated at 31.

Charlie Kirk
October 14th, 1993 – September 10th, 2025
WikiPedia: HERE

Assassinated at 31.

We are utterly shattered by the assassination and tragic loss of Charlie Kirk, a radiant and relentless voice in our movement. His passing tears at our hearts and leaves a void that echoes with grief.

Charlie was fatally shot on September 10, 2025, while speaking to thousands at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah, during his American Comeback Tour. A single shot was fired from a nearby building, striking him as he sat at his trademark “Prove Me Wrong” table, engaging with students and attendees. Law enforcement has confirmed a manhunt is underway for the shooter, who fled after the attack.

In moments like this, it is easy to cast blame on the Democratic Party and the mainstream media, which have too often enabled the conditions for political violence in America. On a national level, they bear much responsibility.

But here in South Carolina, we must also confront the painful truth within our own ranks. Hatred and anger have taken root in the SCGOP as well. From the 2021 ReOrg FRAUD in Greenville, to the refusal to seat Pickens delegates at the 2025 SCGOP State Convention, and so much in between—these acts are desperate attempts, no different than what Democrats do nationally, to cling to perceived power and influence in our state.

We will not stand for it. Lies and hate will be called out, exposed, and rooted out. They have no place anywhere—not in our political community, not now, not ever, and certainly not in South Carolina.

Leaders in South Carolina must learn to truly lead. Too few do today. While true America First conservatives lead with courage, too many politicians, candidates, party officials, and activists choose instead to tolerate deception, to go along to get along. But know this: if you tolerate lies, you are part of the problem.

In the shadow of this fresh grief, we also pause to remember the enduring wound of September 11, 2001—a day that forever altered our nation’s sense of security and unity.

Charlie’s memory demands that we rise above, uniting in truth with an unwavering commitment to honor his legacy—not with bitterness, but with compassion, strength, and steadfast opposition to evil in all its forms, wherever it may arise.

Next Man Up.
