$4.2 Million – ESA “Payday” Begins!!!

ClassWallet gets $4.2 million for a program that is likely to be found unconstitutional

Published

Do you support 100% government run private school choice? Aside from maybe the military … do you support 100% government run anything?  #NO!!!

So why do people support “Education Savings Accounts” … or the falsely named “Universal School Choice”?  They are both 100% government run.  Conservatives should oppose that right?  Especially in a state with a Republican super majority. 

Weird right.  😉

Well, folks think they support ESAs and the new buzzword, “Universal School Choice”, because there is a TON of monied special interest dollars “marketing” these terms to good conservatives.  

As we teach … beware of the mental manipulation and the collective illusion (HERE).  

“Universal School Choice” sounds great … but dig deeper … and think 10 or 20 years from now what a 100% government run “Universal School Choice” program (as the term is used by monied special interest today) really means.


SC EDUCATION SCHOLARSHIP ACCOUNTS: Recall that South Carolina passed it’s bastardized (to put it kindly) version of 100% government run school choice ESAs in May 2023 to much monied special interest fanfare. Well guess what, as we predicted, the “new” ESA is already been sued and is currently tied up in the South Carolina Supreme Court (HERE). The case is not scheduled for oral arguments until March 6th, 2024 at 10:30am … if there are no delays.

TAX CREDIT SCHOLARSHIPS: We on the other hand support and fight for Tax Credit Scholarships … like the PACE / ACE Scholarship Bill (S285) which is 100% free-market, and 100% constitutional … literally bullet-proof legally. It is the grandaddy of school choice … 350,000 kids a year get private tax credit scholarships annually in about 30 states … and NEVER has a Tax Credit Scholarship program been shut down as unconstitutional. It is the best of ALL worlds … and guess what … we don’t get paid to push Tax Credit Scholarships (or S285) … and we don’t know anybody in America that get’s paid to push Tax Credit Scholarships. Why? Because their is no huge profit for anyone to make!!! Tax Credit Scholarships just work, are 100% constitutional, and they take care of kids.

But the monied special interest are all pushing “ESAs” and the falsely named “Universal School Choice” bills. Why? BECAUSE THEY GET PAID!

And the ESA PAYDAYs have started in South Carolina. The first one last month … $4.2 MILLION … but that is just the tip of the iceberg.


This is just the start of what we predicted would be HALF A BILLION (if not more) into the pockets of the monied special interest with the passage of South Carolina’s Education Savings Account Bill (S39) … see HERE … but to see the actual contract award of the first $4.2 MILLION turns your stomach.

On a personal note … it is especially disgusting as the monied special interest “lackeys” accuse us of only doing what we do for school choice for the money. Ha … we call that “projection”! The only problem is the folks that accuse us of such are generally too stupid to realize they are being played. You know who they are. 😉

And remember … because of the Eidson, et al. vs. SC Department of Education, et al. lawsuit to shut down the ESA in South Carolina (HERE) … AGAIN, for the third time … why are we awarding this ClassWallet company a $4.2 million contract for a program that is likely to be found unconstitutional … AGAIN, for the third time … in the next six months?


We may not like these monied special interest people like ClassWallet who care more about self than service … but the real sad part is (#1) the kids who are losing because of ESAs and will not be served … and (#2) the general long term effects of expanding government “indoctrination” education, and specifically the loss of true private education given the government strings attached to ESAs.

Remember … just say NO to money with government strings attached and no independent protections!!!  South Carolina has a “Republican” super majority … we do not have to accept government strings.

#SaveOurSchools!!!


We will have more on these guys later … but WOW, do they have a good gig going … if you don’t mind selling out children to line your own pockets.

But, that is capitalism … the free-market would normally take care of a company like that.  What we don’t like are the ELECTED OFFICIALS that help companies like ClassWallet … the legislators that put their finger on the scale and destroy the free-market in order to line their own pockets.

Stay tuned …

Pickens – Setting the Record Straight – A VIDEO RESPONSE

Bob Fetterly – PCRP Chair 2023-2025

Published

on

YouTube (HERE) or Rumble (HERE)

We all know about the Drew McKissick shenanigans at the SCGOP State Convention back on May 3rd, 2025 with the “sneak attack” on the Pickens County Republican Party (PCRP) and the ultimate failure to seat the 24 (anti-DREW) PCRP State Delegates on fabricated charges. (mySCGOP.news, May 8th, 2025 – The Latest SCGOP FabricationHERE)

It really is dumbfounding … but in reality just another example in a long line of examples since the MAGA America First insurgency began in ReOrg 2021 with the outright fraud in Greenville (HERE & HERE).

Well, it is ongoing with the SCGOP … as they say, the gift that keeps giving insofar as exposing the hypocrisy and outright corruption withing the SCGOP State Leadership & State Executive Committee itself.

Specifically – the SCGOP State Executive Committee voted ( 32 to 18 ) at its quarterly meeting on June 7th, 2025, that the Pickens County Republican Party would be “suspended” until the next quarterly meeting in September. The PCRP elected leadership can no longer use the PCRP name, website, email system, bank account … even with important elections coming up in November … and the PCRP can’t meet … but somehow (even though they can’t meet?) they are supposed to come up with a “plan” to present to the SCGOP State Executive Committee in September on how to fix the fabricated problem.

Basically Pickens was “unorganized” on June 7th (without notice) – even though the SCGOP State Executive Committee did not have the 75% of the votes needed to unorganize PCRP under the “new” Rule 16(b) which was ramrodded through in a special called SCGOP convention in July 30th, 2022. 

The good news is the former PCRP Chair, Bob Fetterly (who did not run, nor had he planned to run, for re-election in 2025) has published a video response to the SCGOP charges that he arbitrarily capped the number of county delegates to 400 – a bizarre charge by the SCGOP. Bob did a great job laying out the details … and it now appears that “if” there were any “Rules Violations” … it was really the SCGOP itself that violated it’s own Rules. 

Take a look … we think you will enjoy the video response and details:

This is obviously going to be an ongoing story … so stay tuned!!!
