Be Persistent, but always be Professional
Don’t Take The Bait … IT’S A TRAP!
Yesterday we talked about the differences between folks that are Political vs. Principled. (HERE).
What is the definition of insanity? Doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.
If we want to change things for the better, if we want to SAVE SOUTH CAROLINA & SAVE AMERICA … long term … we have to start doing different.
That starts with the fact that we must always be the PRINCIPLED ones … and those principles are simple. #1 The Bible, #2 The US Constitution & #3 The Platform.
Yes, it is a heavy lift doing different, but none of this is really difficult once you see GOOD and TRUTH.
And once you do … you won’t be able to “unsee” the POLITICAL in too many of our elected officials and others who have inserted themselves in this backwards world of politics.
Be PERSISTENT
There is a follow-up in all of this however … and that starts our with being PERSISTENT … or as we often put it #NeverSURRENDER!
When you are following PRINCIPLES you should never abandon that position for expedience sake. Yes, it can be exhausting fighting the good fight … but guess what … the other side gets exhausted as well. They may not look like it and they may talk a big game, but when BAD PEOPLE are joined together to do BAD THINGS … they inevitably turn on each other.
So, are you going to quit before they do? Heck NO you are not! We can’t!
We work HARDER … and we have RIGHT on our side … that is how we WIN!
Be PROFESSIONAL
The second part of the follow-up has to do with how WE “react” in challenging situations. When RINOs and RINO wannabe “splinter groups” do nasty things … when they slander and bully us … call us names to our face … do you take the bait?
Or do you know that when they “go low” it only means WE ARE WINNING?
Watch for it … some of these folks that you think are nice people will do some of the meanest and most hateful things you could ever imagine. They will try to push your buttons to get you to react … or force you to quit. Don’t!!!
The movie MEAN GIRLS (HERE) may have been a teen comedy … but it is based in reality as we all saw firsthand in high school … and those girls don’t change when they grow up … and worse, they all appear to enjoy being political gadflies. It ugly, inside and out.
Seriously … at what age and after how many pictures with the same “politicians” does it become old???
Anyhow … DON’T TAKE THE BAIT … IT IS A TRAP! Just know that some of the insane and nasty things these people will do is to simply bait you into reacting in an unprofessional manner … so they can then say “look, I told you so”.
Instead … WE ALWAYS SMILE! We know that when they try to bait us it only means we are winning.
So don’t do anything that you would not be proud for your mother, your children or your pastor to see you do. ALWAYS BE PROFESSIONAL!!!
Let them prove themselves the FOOLS. Just give it a little time … they always do 😉
Don’t Take The Bait … IT’S A TRAP!

The Missing Story Behind the Alex Pretti Minnesota Shooting
What Is the New American Development Center?
At mySCGOP.news, we focus on South Carolina state and local politics … but we did want to venture into the national story of the weekend — the Alex Pretti ICE shooting in Minnesota — and challenge you to look a little deeper (with all matters), and to take a peek at the “business” in the background in Minnesota.
There is A LOT of talk about the shooting — and we have all seen the videos circulating — but look in the background and ask yourself, “What is the New American Development Center?”
A quick search shows it is not a daycare center … but yet another type of NGO (non-governmental organization) with the espoused (and government-funded) mission to reduce poverty for Somali and East African immigrant and refugee communities.
How much does that cost taxpayers? $1,441,733 in government grants in 2024. The Executive Director earned $163,900 in 2024 … $168,323 in salary for other “disqualified” people/persons … $40,000 in lobbying … and a host of other “expenses” that are very questionable as to the amounts, and we can only guess who received those funds.
See the publicly available IRS Form 990 below or HERE.
Is this yet another apparent sham uncovered with about five minutes of Google searches?
South Carolina Attorney General candidate DAVID PASCOE has committed to establishing a PCU — Public Corruption Unit — when he takes office. Minnesota (and the U.S.) may need a PCU too.
As we teach, when something doesn’t make sense — DIG DEEPER!!!

Closed Primaries is one of the top legislative issues for MAGA / America FIRST Patriots in South Carolina … and it is a plank in the SCGOP Platform. So why is it so hard to get?
That is somewhat of a rhetorical question as we all understand that in South Carolina we have A LOT of moderate (if not left-leaning) “Republicans” that count on Democrat cross-over votes to win their GOP Primary.
Although we have been promised for decades now that registration by party (as an initial step) and ultimately closed primaries is a goal of SCGOP establishment leadership … but we have NEVER seen a real effort … until this year.
Why the change in 2026? Why is the SCGOP pushing sooooooo hard for their bill, H3643? Simple … this year we have a “candidate qualification” provision (unrelated to closed primaries) that allows the establish to KEEP OUT certain candidates, and give a pass to those they like.
See the 2 hour hearing held on Wednesday January 21st, 2026, and judge for your self.
