Revelation 7:10

Published

on

On this All Saints’ Day, we remember with gratitude those who have gone before us in faith … those who stood firm, lived with conviction, endured hardship, and remained faithful to Christ. Their lives remind us that faith is not simply something we profess; it is something we live.

There will come a day when every earthly title, every political position, every worldly power, and every human accomplishment will fade away. But one truth will remain: Our salvation belongs to God, and our victory is in Jesus Christ..

Happy Sunday!

Revelation 7:10

To repeat from last Sunday (HERE), as we stand alongside our dedicated leaders, candidates, and advocates preparing for the discussions and debates of the week ahead, let’s keep our hearts firmly anchored in the Lord.

Friends, we have been running a weekly Coffee & Politics Meeting out of our Greenville Headquarters for nearly 5 years now … and it has been a huge hit. It is how we communicate our vision and #Mission to or local Volunteers and Community … and it one way we RECRUIT more people to the MAGA America First movement.


THIS WEEK’S HIGHLIGHTS:

Coffee & Politics Greenville

Your weekly roundup of Greenville County and South Carolina politics

Good Saturday morning, Patriots!

We are just days away from Election Day, and this week’s Coffee & Politics Greenville covers several important developments affecting Greenville County Republicans.

We take another look at the proposed $1.1 billion Penny Tax, including the actual cost to taxpayers, questions about Greenlink spending, and the claims being made by supporters of the tax. We also discuss President Trump’s recent visit to Rock Hill, the political controversy surrounding the rally, and the importance of getting voters to the polls.

Plus, we demonstrate a new technology platform being developed to help precinct volunteers organize door-to-door canvassing, map voter addresses, and coordinate grassroots outreach. The episode also includes updates on pro-life legislative priorities, school choice, and the party’s plans for the 2027 precinct reorganization.

2. Follow the money—and examine the assumptions.
From Greenlink operating costs to the studies cited by Penny Tax supporters, the hosts emphasize the importance of reviewing the underlying numbers and asking who benefits from public spending.

3. Election Day is November 3—verify your polling location.
Precinct locations can change. Voters should check their assigned polling place before heading out. Visit GreenvilleGOP.com/vote.

5. The work continues after Election Day.
Precinct reorganization, legislative priorities, pro-life advocacy, and education freedom will all be important parts of the GCRP’s work heading into 2027.



Quotes & Themes of the Week

  • On temporary taxes: “There’s nothing more permanent than a temporary tax.” The hosts return to this familiar warning while discussing the history of transportation taxes.
  • On the Penny Tax: “That’s not a penny.” The hosts highlight the exchange in which a supporter estimated the cost at $15–$20 per person per month.
  • On voter outreach: The message is that personal conversations, direct contact, and door-to-door canvassing remain essential to grassroots politics.
  • On building our own tools: Rather than waiting for others to provide the resources, the GCRP is developing technology to support its own precinct volunteers.
  • On civic responsibility: The closing prayer emphasizes that participating in government and voting are important responsibilities of citizenship.


Election Day Is Tuesday, November 3!

There is still time to make a difference. Check your polling location, encourage your friends and neighbors to vote, and make sure your voice is heard.

After Election Day, we will turn our attention to precinct reorganization, legislative priorities, and building an even stronger grassroots organization for 2027.

FITSNews: Real Universal School Choice Is Finally Coming to South Carolina on January 1st

“Almost 1.4 million South Carolina taxpayers are eligible to contribute, and we hope you will be one of them!”

Published

on

“Almost 1.4 million South Carolina taxpayers are eligible to contribute, and we hope you will be one of them!”


On January 1, 2027, a new federal Scholarship Tax Credit program created as part of President Donald Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBB) will open new opportunities for South Carolina families, donors, and schools. Literally hundreds of millions of dollars in potential funding will be available. Established under Section 25F of the Internal Revenue Code and overseen by the U.S. Treasury, the program encourages contributions to Scholarship Granting Organizations (SGOs) that provide scholarships for eligible K-12 students.

At Palmetto Kids FIRST, we have been fighting for exactly this kind of real school choice in South Carolina since 2013: (1) giving families more control over their children’s education, regardless of income, ZIP code, or financial need and (2) ensuring that the program is implemented by free-market independent 501(c)(3) nonprofits, not the same government entities and monied special interest whose regulations have overburdened our public schools and helped create the need for real universal school choice. In other words, no strings attached.

Importantly, this opportunity is not limited to private-school students. Eligible students attending public schools, private schools, charter schools and, subject to applicable state laws, even children learning at home can benefit. This is the dream we have advocated for, and we have president Trump to thank for finally bringing it to us here in South Carolina.

#1 – PARENTS: MORE CHOICES AND POTENTIALLY FULL SCHOLARSHIPS

We all know that every child learns differently. Some thrive in public schools; others benefit from private or religious schools, charter schools, homeschooling, tutoring or specialized academic support.

Today, families must often choose between these options based not on what is best for their children, but on what they can afford. Money should not limit a child’s educational opportunities – and money won’t be a limiting factor for the more than 92% of all families that qualify. This is real Universal School Choice.

These new federal tax credit scholarships can also complement assistance already available through South Carolina’s limited state school choice programs, including the Education Scholarship Trust Fund (ESTF) and the Educational Credit for Exceptional Needs Children (ECENC). Combining eligible sources of assistance could help students receive scholarships covering 100% of their qualifying educational costs. These federal scholarships through Palmetto Kids FIRST can layer on top of eligible state assistance – or potentially for some schools provide a completely new alternative without the SC state government regulations.

Parents, you do not have to wait until January to get involved. Sign up here today with Palmetto Kids FIRST to receive information about the coming program and scholarship opportunities.

#2 – DONORS: MAKE A DIFFERENCE THROUGH GIVING – COST FREE!

Beginning on January 1, 2027, eligible individual taxpayers nationwide may claim a federal income tax credit of up to $1,700 for cash contributions to eligible SGOs in participating states like South Carolina. Married couples filing jointly can qualify for a combined credit of up to $3,400. Almost 1.4 million South Carolina taxpayers are eligible to contribute, and we hope you will be one of them!

Unlike a deduction, a tax credit directly reduces federal income tax liability dollar-for-dollar. Give $1,700 and take $1,700 off your federal income taxes. Easy! This program gives donors a new way to support K-12 children’s education at essentially no cost whatsoever – just a little upfront paperwork.

Want to help make real universal school choice possible? Make a nonbinding pledge today to let Palmetto Kids FIRST know you are interested in supporting scholarships on January 1 when the program launches. The sooner you donate, the sooner we can issue scholarship grants to K-12 children statewide.

Visit: PalmettoKidsFIRST.com/pledge

#3 – SCHOOLS: PARTNER WITH PALMETTO KIDS FIRST

South Carolina schools – public, private, charter and homeschool communities – have an opportunity to help more families access educational resources. Private and religious schools will be able to make tuition more affordable and potentially cost-free, while public schools, charter schools and homeschooling families can benefit from assistance for qualifying educational expenses and services.

We invite all South Carolina schools to partner with Palmetto Kids FIRST as we prepare for the January 1 launch. Together, we can help families understand the program, connect eligible students with scholarship opportunities and expand access to educational resources for all kids.

REAL UNIVERSAL SCHOOL CHOICE IS FINALLY HERE

For more than a decade, Palmetto Kids FIRST has worked toward a future in which educational opportunities are not dictated solely by a family’s financial circumstances. The new federal program offers the perfect path toward fulfilling that goal.

Not every student or expense will automatically qualify, and scholarships will depend on available funding from donors. But the potential is significant – literally hundreds of millions of dollars here in South Carolina alone. More donor support, more educational choices and more opportunities for all of our K-12 children.

January 1, 2027, marks the beginning of a new chapter in South Carolina. Parents, donors, schools – and you – can help make it a success.

Let’s work together to put our Palmetto Kids FIRST. Join us today!

Let’s align our efforts with His justice and peace, praying for strength and protection on the journey ahead.

Happy Sunday – October 18th, 2026

Matthew 11:29

Published

on

When earthly politics leave you feeling outside the fold, remember that your ultimate identity and hope were never meant to rest in a party line. Taking up Christ’s yoke means trading political anxiety for unwavering faith, clarity, and purpose.

We can still vote our convictions, advocate for conservative principles, and love our communities well … not from a place of frustration or compromise, but from a foundation of peace, hope, and gentle strength. Our political home may feel uncertain, but our true foundation remains unshakeable.

We cannot afford to give up or throw up our hands in frustration. Taking our responsibility as voters seriously means stepping up anyway … casting your vote with confidence, standing firm for core principles, and letting your faith guide the way forward with peace and hope.

Happy Sunday!

Matthew 11:29

To repeat from last Sunday (HERE), true strength is not found in pride or political power, but in humble surrender to the One who conquered death.
