See the actual Chad Connelly (false) Sworn Affidavit
Can you see the lies? Can you see the excuses?
The SC Judicial Reform article published earlier (HERE) detailing how the SC Courts gave Chad Connelly a “pass” on filing a false sworn affidavit … otherwise commonly known as committing perjury … has really stirred up a few folks. It is one thing to talk about judicial “corruption”, but to see it firsthand is troubling. [NOTE: We will have what the SC Attorney General’s Office is saying here soon.]
Some of you have asked to see a copy of the actual false sworn affidavit. It is included (pages 126 & 127) as part of the Record On Appeal (HERE), but for easy of finding we have included a copy below.
Remember, Chad filed this sworn Affidavit as part of (#1) a MOTION TO DENY PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION AND TO DISMISS THE COMPLAINT (filed on 3/4/2020), (#2) ANSWER & COUNTERCLAIM (filed on 3/4/2020 – suing me for “Abuse of Process”), and (#3) MOTION FOR SANCTIONS (filed on 3/6/2020 – again, further going after me for seeking this Declaratory Judgment in what was ultimately a winning effort to protect K-12 kids for Chad’s financial abuses).
LIE #1: This was not an innocent affidavit and a simple mistake … it was part of a well orchestrated offensive. Chad was at the time the Executive Director of Exceptional SC … he had to know they had not raised $1,045,000 in the past 21 days when they had only received non-binding pledges for $99,201. To say you were raising $50,000 per day, $350,000 per week … as part of three offensive court filings … and you are raising virtually ZERO … that is not a simple nor innocent mistake by the Executive Director of the Nonprofit.
LIE #2: What is even worse is the Chad Connelly “excuses”. Under Chad’s leadership in 2018, 2019 & 2020, Exceptional SC was a complete disaster. But Chad kept getting his $11,300 / mth paycheck for what he treated as a part time gig … and something he was totally unqualified to do.
Consider … this false sworn Affidavit was from March 4th, 2020. At that time the equivalent program in Georgia was breaking fundraising records … under the same “IRS Rules” Chad is using as an excuse for his failures in this false sworn Affidavit.
[NOTE: It was truly a dark time for K-12 kids with special needs & school choice here in South Carolina … and won’t get better until the SC House of Representatives passes the PACE / ACE Scholarship Bill (S 285) hopefully in January 2024 – call your House Rep!!! (HERE). Chad Connelly may be gone from Exceptional SC, but his legacy continues as the program is rated the Nation’s worst school choice program – and is the Nation’s only 100% government run tax credit scholarship program.]
Chad Connelly knew better … but he continued to lie even in this false sworn Affidavit to cover his own failures. K-12 kids with special needs paid the price … Chad Connelly knew it as we were screaming it from the mountaintops (but Chad refused to listen) … and Chad clearly lied about this as well in his false sworn Affidavit to further his personal vendetta.
As we teach, “Watch what they DO, not what they SAY.“
Now I am a “math guy” so lying about numbers is the easy thing to prove … but for the court to simply ignore BOTH of these massive lies, in a SWORN AFFIDAVIT filed with the Court seeking “abuse of process” and “sanctions” against me personally for filing this Declaratory Judgment seeking to help children as the SC Department of Revenue would not enforce the law (and were politically coving for Chad Connelly too) … which neither were awarded (but stay tuned … it gets worse) … is prima facie evidence we need judicial reform in South Carolina.
If ANYBODY else had done this … anybody who was not in the “political” class, protected by legislators … we would be in jail!!!
More to come …

As we head into the 2026 South Carolina Primaries next June 9th, Republican (and Democrat) voters will be faced with picking which Republican (or Democrat) they want to represent them in the general election. It will be a choice we each have to make among the available options … the 2, 3 or 5 candidates that filed and are on the ballot … and there is no “None Of The Above” option. Sure, you don’t have to vote … but don’t complain later when you sat out the election.
We are seeing already … the jockeying by political consultants and their operatives to push their candidate (and tear down the opponents) … and the “PERFECTIONISTS” that complain about every candidate, but offer no solutions (and are not willing to run for office themselves).
A THOUGHTFUL APPROACH: Selection of a candidate to support is not easy. None of them are perfect, and how much can you really believe from what you hear on the campaign trail. What we like to encourage is that everyone think critically and logically about candidates and their campaigns, and steer clear as best you can of the emotional knee-jerk reactions that often dominate the discussions.
IT IS NOT JUST THE CANDIDATE – LOOK AT THEIR TEAM: While it’s tempting to focus solely on the candidate, it’s equally important to examine the people they surround themselves with. If you’re unaware of a candidate’s consultants (and their motivations), staff (and their roles), or the candidate’s supporters (who will inevitable have the ear of the candidate), it’s wise to hold off on offering your support. Ultimately, it’s not just about the candidate—it’s about their TEAM (or the “baggage” that comes with them).
We like to prioritize two key qualities when evaluating candidates:
(#1) Electability: A candidate (a) willing to run for office and (b) capable of winning. You may know the “perfect” person, but if they won’t run for office or are not capable of winning … what good are they?
(#2) Collaboration and Integrity: A candidate open to working with The People, with the grassroots, willing to listen, eager to include The People as part of their TEAM, and genuinely committed to doing what’s objectively right for the people—not just themselves (or their monied special interest backers). Here is where experience and judgment comes into consideration because you really don’t know what a candidate might do once elected. We have helped candidates get elected – and then never spoken with them again (not by our choice). Being lied to is a hard lesson to learn.
This process of selecting a candidate to back is both an art and a science, and while we may never find the “perfect” candidate, we can identify and support those who meet these two criteria and give us the best odds of promoting the conservative cause … at least until the next election when we will have another chance to try again.
THE TRUMP OF 2016: Reflecting on the field of “candidates” in 2016 … and the original “candidate” DONALD J. TRUMP … I believe that original candidate TRUMP, embodied these qualities, and that approach has proven effective in helping Save America.
STOP LOOKING FOR A “POLITICAL SAVIOR”: Most importantly, let’s remember, no candidate will save us. There is only one true “Savior”, and He is not running for office. Our work continues, so don’t think you are off the hook if your person gets elected. But having the right people – dedicated TEAM players – in elected positions from top to bottom can make all the difference.
Be smart … be logical … don’t be emotional … and don’t just complain, complain, complain.

TRUMP Truth Social Post (HERE)
The NANCY MACE campaign released polling numbers yesterday showing a commanding early lead in the South Carolina Governor’s Race … 25% MACE, 17% Alan Wilson, 10% Ralph Norman, 6% Pamela Evette, 3% Josh Kimbrell … with 38% Lean / Undecided. You can see the full reports HERE & below.
The polling results show MACE separating herself from the crowd since officially launching her candidacy last week and announcing AUSTIN MCCUBBIN (HERE), the 2024 TRUMP Team Statewide Director, has joined her team. This all seems to make MACE the early odds on favorite to win the Republican Primary next June 9th, 2026 … 294 days from today.
You can find more details on FITSNews (HERE & on X HERE) … but the real story broke when President TRUMP himself shared the MACE Polling Lead on his TRUTH Social (HERE) last night at 9:29pm. When the POTUS shares your leading polling data with the world … that is a not so subtle message.
Good news for NANCY MACE … but and incredibly bad sign for Lt. Governor Pamela Evette who is in a distant 4th with 6% of the vote. The Lt. Governor has led folks to believe she has TRUMP’s endorsement locked up. Well, that claim did not seem believable at the time … and really doesn’t appear believable now. When was the last time TRUMP endorsed someone in 4th place??? We can’t remember either.
Stay tuned … it is going to be a fun 2026 primary season!!!
