This vote on Snowden will tell us who the genuine conservatives are and who the poseurs are. I wish our state had recall elections to be able to remove some of the Cheeseman poodles from office.

The climate alarmists have been attacking pet ownership recently and have attacked livestock farming for years. They want to force people to only eat fake meat or not to eat meat at all. These shrill nannies are really a religious cult - Climate Scientology.

The Left needs to understand that they do NOT have a lock on what is art.

A prime example of such is your comedians are NO longer funny.

This power is also used by the superintendent to intimidate or punish teachers who get in his way. He is a bully. The school board should really supervise him on use and abuse of this power.

It is curious that the 2 major British newspapers linked above stress the BLM background of the terrorist assassin of these Israeli diplomats, but I have not seen the US MSM media even mention that aspect.

RH: I agree, but I seriously doubt this particular board is going to add any responsibilities. They seem to like the easy path.

RL: You're right. Richland Township deserves better. Hood is right too. Wouldn't it have been so much better if the BCS Central office had given positive support to SWS rather than contributing to so much uncertainty for the future of Snowden. I think you call that self-fulfilled prophesy. That kind of thing is bad policy for Beaufort County. In the end Beaufort County families are the victims in all of this.

The power to reassign teachers unilaterally is a power Cheeseman uses to intimidate school board members to his position. The only way to fix that is to remove that power from Fuehrer Cheeseman by requiring board approval of all such transfers.

Dr. Cheeseman made it very clear at the Monday, May 19, 2025 meeting of the Beaufort County commissioners budget meeting that HE would not be closing the S. W. Snowden school in Beaufort County. He clearly stated if the school was closed it would be the responsibility of the elected school board members. It is also very clear that closing Snowden is his preference and he will encourage the elected members to consent to his desires. Dr. Cheeseman and the staff that works at his pleasure are responsible for assigning teachers and teacher assistants to each school. Should a school board member not bend to his wishes, he can reassign key personnel from one school to another district school requiring longer travel time for teachers.
Hood is correct. If there is a constant rumbling that the Snowden is slated for for closure, it is natural for parents to select other options for their children's educational options when available.
Aurora and the Richlands community deserve better.

Biden judges appointed by the autopen ought to be forced out of office and replaced. They are not legitimate and neither are their court rulings.

Every since Nutrien crossed the street and found more ore, the continuation of the destruction of aurora continues. Only building with ay taxes going to it is the school, post office, and liqour store. The town isn't good enough for a bank, grocery store, drs office, and now any school, but there's a person in that liqour store everyday selling shot bottles of liqour to the community. The county wants aurora to be gone and if I was a resident of that town I'd be heartbroken. No taxes are going towards helping them. Its a travesty.

Guess what? "Dominion" starts with a "D" and reading the article, that is exactly who this is about.

And those disgusting Obama judges and Biden judges want to block deportation of foreign students who instigate this sort of thing with their hate? Foreigners who sympathize with the Hamas nazis need to be booted out of the country. Shame on those judges for coddling them.

The country was run for four years like a crack-head influence peddler was in charge. Tapper may well be right that it was Hunter Biden pulling Joe Biden's strings.

All eight already had final deportation orders from immigration courts, as Kitmar Allbrego-Garcia did. They have had they day in court and due process. These corrupt Democrat judges are trying to pile hearing on top of hearing to drag the process out to prevent deportation of these criminals. These corrupt Democrat judges are enemies of America.

Most Biden judges are probably really AUTOPEN judges. Nobody knows who really appointed them. They all ought to be removed from office on that basis. Maybe Congress could pass a bill removing them from office unless within 6 months they could prove to House and Senate committees that Biden had knowingly nominated them.

John: You are the man.

I was just using your steadfast commentary as a pivoting segue to what I wanted to talk about: The budget hearing; the Center-Left Coalition, and their truly refined BS originating in favor of the Bureaucrat Class, and all that they are allowed to control.

LOCK THEM UP

From the standpoint of taxpayers, commissioners, etc., this project most certainly is about money, too. My point is that money has absolutely nothing to do with why Cheeseman is proposing this. That is only his smokescreen. It is all about building his resume on consolidating schools for purposes of his next job. Cheeseman's tenure has demonstrated that he is a financial illiterate anyway. The 4 acre fiasco is a clear example of that. So is going to a contractor with t along history of cost overruns for building his mega elementary school.

John Steed: It is always about the money, because without taxpayer's hard taxes collected, the Non Patriot Left would have no reason to exist.

I sat through a meeting commissioners' budget meeting Tuesday night, where the Center-Left Coalition, those who swap votes to share power here in Beaufort County's Government, are working themselves into a Leftist frenzy to close a school in perfectly good condition to build a mega school, one in which we do not need, at the lowest point of the land, land that BCSs did not entirely own; the management of which could not be bothered to order a title search until it was TOO LATE.

It is moving toward 4 months now since I have asked for a copy of that "TOO LATE Title Search," from every authority available, and this duly elected county commissioner can NOT get a copy of it. At every turn, I have been stopped in retrieving what was never done in a timely manner, for huge expenditures that never needed to be made, not in my fiscally balanced world of management.

One has only to intellectually move an inordinately small distance to wonder: Why are the Leftist Center-Left Coalition, administering Beaufort County's government, and a Leftist Beaufort County Schools' administration now asking for more and more taxpayer's treasure to keep a school system afloat, one with a dwindling student population, so they may remain viable in a condition that they have become well accustomed?

Could the answer just be terrible management ... With the public's money?

John, it is always about the inordinate need for the public's money for Leftists, without which the Left would NOT exist.

Ceres, have you ever heard of a moving target. Let some of your buddies explain it to you. I think you are having a lot of trouble keeping up.
