 #WINNING … in the SC Courts!

Part 2

Published

on

The SC Republican Platform had two huge victories in South Carolina courts this week … one a 4-1 SC Supreme Court Ruling for Life (HERE) … the second a “settlement” victory for the 2nd Amendment (see below).  

Both situations should never have been in court … and neither should have been in the courts for as long as they were … but both were victories typically not seen in the SC State Judicial System.

Why?  

Because SC needs #JudicialReform!!!

These two court victories are a sign that things are changing here in South Carolina … because of YOU … and as such we need to #DoubleDOWN!!!  #PressON!!!  #PressHARDER!!!


PART 2

ILLEGAL SIGNS REMOVED!

Attorney Lauren Martel (HERE) filed this 2nd Amendment case on behalf of her client Graham Horsman against the Charleston County Parks and Recreation Commission (CCPR) back on October 4th, 2022 … and almost 11 month later it has been settled!!!

Read the Summons & Complaint HERE.

Background: Three-foot by four-foot unlawful firearm signs were originally erected in August 2021 prohibiting the carrying of firearms on 11,000 acres of public land in Charleston, and subjecting concealed weapon permit holders to fines, arrest, and imprisonment.

This firearm ban was enforced in direct violation of S.C. Code Ann. §23-31-510 (HERE), which prohibits the governing body of any county, municipality, or other political subdivision in the state from regulating the transfer, ownership, possession, carrying, or transportation of firearms, ammunition, components of firearms, or any combination of these things.

Senator Shane Martin (R – Greenville, Spartanburg & Union) stepped in and requested a SC Attorney General’s Office Opinion on the matter … and as expected the AG’s Office opined that the CCPR signs were illegal.

Read the SC Attorney Generals Opinion HERE.

But even then, with a July 22, 2022, SC Attorney Generals Opinion … it still took the filing of a lawsuit (on October 4, 2022) and 13 months for the Charleston County Parks and Recreation Commission to VOTE on August 21st, 2023, to settle the lawsuit and immediately remove the signs.

Congratulations and thank you to Mr. Horsman, Attorney Lauren Martel, Senator Shane Martin & Representative Matt Leber … and the folks at South Carolina Carry … for this legal victory and making this happen for the Citizens of South Carolina.


GET INVOLVED … BOARDS & COMMISSIONS

One major lesson learned here … as this case involves a citizens board … YOU must get involved in your LOCAL boards & commissions.

The Charleston County Park & Recreation Commission (HERE) is composed of seven citizens nominated by the Charleston County Council and appointed by the Governor of South Carolina. Commissioners vote on policy-related issues and serve two-year staggered terms. Consecutive terms are not limited.

So yes, Governor McMaster APPOINTED these commissioners that REFUSED to comply with the law until forced with a lawsuit. He could have fixed this, or at least prevented it!

These are the things we elect our Governor to do, and it is not that hard to do. Citizens are asking why isn’t Governor McMaster (or his staff) doing it? We would all like to know.

Friends, there are City Boards, County Boards, Legislative Boards and State Boards … if your are not on one (or two or three) … YOU need to get on one.

We will have more on how to soon … so stay tuned.

StepUP! #GetINVOLVED!

Proverbs 14:34

Published

As conservatives, we know that America’s greatness is not found in the size of its government, but in the character of its people. True prosperity follows when we align our laws and our lives with God’s moral truths. Let’s keep honoring God, remain
 steadfast in our commitment to the values that exalt our nation  and keep our country free.

To repeat from last Sunday (HERE), therefore let him who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall – Paul wrote these words to remind the early church (and us today) that even those who feel strongest in their faith, principles, and positions are not immune to temptation, complacency, unexpected stumbles, rebellion and overconfidence.

Happy Sunday!

Greenville County Republican Party Chairman Jeff Davis Issues Statement on RJ May Sentencing

They defended him until the end!

Greenville County Republican Party Chairman Statement on RJ May’s Sentencing

Greenville, SC – January 14, 2026 – The Greenville County Republican Party (GCRP) expresses its sincere gratitude to the Office of the United States Attorney for the District of South Carolina for their diligent and thorough work in prosecuting former State Representative and co-founder of the SC Freedom Caucus, RJ May, on federal charges of distributing child sexual abuse material.

We are thankful for the comprehensive investigation and prosecution that ensured accountability, culminating in today’s court-imposed sentence of 17.5 years in federal prison, to be followed by 20 years of supervised release and $58,000 in restitution to victims.

As a public servant who advanced legislation aimed at punishing child abusers and protecting vulnerable individuals, Mr. May’s private actions in distributing such horrific and depraved material represent a profound betrayal of public trust and the very principles he publicly championed. He, above all others, should have known better.

Chairman Jeff Davis of the Greenville County Republican Party stated: “It is disgusting but not surprising to find this level of depravity in South Carolina politics. This case is a stark reminder of how predators can hide behind positions of power and public virtue, making the betrayal even more egregious.”

Crimes against children are among the most heinous offenses imaginable, and we stand firmly with the victims and their families in demanding full justice. The Greenville County GOP remains unwavering in its commitment to upholding the rule of law, protecting the innocent, and supporting every effort to combat child exploitation at all levels.

We continue to pray for healing and restoration for all those affected by this tragedy.

SC Freedom Caucus Co-Founder Rep. RJ May Sentenced to 17.5 Years in Federal Prison for Distributing Child Pornography

They defended him until the end!

Published

on

It have been a long and revealing saga, but the sentence have finally been handed out.

SC Freedom Caucus Co-Founder and former SC House Rep. RJ May was sentenced today to 17 1/2 years in Federal Prison … followed by 20 years supervision … and a permanent Sex Offender label.

Was it enough? If you have read the court filings in this case … the gory details … you would probably say no. But we can say compared to the sex offender penalties we have seen out of the Alan Wilson’s SC Attorney General’s Office, it was a 1,000 times more than most expected.

Have politicians learned anything? Not particularly. We have watched constantly as his fellow elected officials in the SC Freedom Caucus have covered and protected him. We here have been at odds with RJ May for nearly a decade. It was clear the paid POLITICAL CONSULTANT was not who he said he was. Rumors over just this matter abound starting in April / May 2024 … and although RJ May had disappeared from the public view his fellow SC Freedom Caucus members were calling him an “upstanding member” in November 2024 and badgering reporters for even asking about the matter. (HERE)

The betrayal has been HUGE … the apology and lesson learned has been nonexistent.

Developing story … stay tuned.

1 Corinthians 10:12

Published

on

Therefore let him who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall – Paul wrote these words to remind the early church (and us today) that even those who feel strongest in their faith, principles, and positions are not immune to temptation, complacency, unexpected stumbles, rebellion and overconfidence.
This week, let’s each examine our hearts:

-> Are we staying humble before God and dependent on His grace?

-> Are we continuing to build relationships, recruit new members, and train the next generation of conservative leaders?

-> Are we watching our words, actions, and witness so that nothing causes a brother or sister—or a potential voter—to stumble?

-> Are we guarding against the subtle temptations, discouragement, or compromise that have tripped up so many strong movements before us?

God is faithful. He never allows us to be tempted beyond what we can bear, and with every trial He provides a way of escape. Let us lean into that promise as we prepare for the battles ahead in 2026 and beyond.

To repeat from last Sunday (HERE), Hebrews 13:8 offers a timeless standard for all of us: true leadership—at any level—is marked by unwavering consistency, reflecting the unchanging nature of Christ, who is the same “yesterday, today, and forever.”

Happy Sunday!
