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 …

Instead of viewing difficulties or setbacks as obstacles see them as purposeful vehicles for development! Hardships are not just problems to endure but moments that shape you and produce perseverance! Each challenge you face, whether big or small, is a chance to develop resilience, patience, to lean into faith, trust in God’s plan and it is a step to handle future challenges with greater strength.
And remember JOY is a choice, not a feeling!
“Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.”
James 1:2-3
To repeat from last Sunday (HERE), acting on knowledge of what is right, rather than remaining passive or choosing comfort, convenience, petty or self-interest over moral conviction drives the true patriots into action.

Acting on knowledge of what is right, rather than remaining passive or choosing comfort, convenience, petty or self-interest over moral conviction drives the true patriots into action.
Watching those knowing a policy or decision would benefit the common good yet witnessing them avoid supporting it due to political pressures or personal gain makes you realize that they were never serious about the mission or in many cases, they got involved for nefarious reasons to begin with.
Failing to do what is right—when you know better—carries spiritual and ethical consequences and requires reflection on whether your political involvement mirrors your understanding of what is good and just.
“To him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin.“

To repeat from last Sunday (HERE), proverbs 13:4 is a powerful reminder that your efforts are not wasted!

Proverbs 13:4 is a powerful reminder that your efforts are not wasted! Even when immediate results are hard to see, when it feels like your hard work is not producing results, trust that in fact the change is incremental and often requires decades of persistent work by dedicated individuals.
Your years of showing up, whether through grassroots organizing, advocating, educating others, or amplifying contentious voices are laying the foundation for change and the change itself! Just think of those that used to be involved and are not today. Your ability to keep going, sets you apart!
“The soul of the sluggard craves and gets nothing, while the soul of the diligent is richly supplied.”
Proverbs 13:4
To repeat from last Sunday (HERE), consistency builds integrity … turns values into impact. Sadly we watch fellow patriots “turn” … change their stances, go against those that they should be supporting based on their convictions.
