These out of control political activist Democrat judges need to be removed from office. They are a disgrace to our judicial system in abusing their offices for political purposes. Hooray for Graham in finding a way to put them in their place. Graham has not generally been a conservative hero but he did a godd day's work on this one.

Stan: I suppose the resolution is meant for the County Commission Board. There's not much need to put it before the School Board. I'm pretty sure that, not all, but a majority of that board is totally committed to chasing that ever more expensive "free education lottery money".

Concerning the County Commission Board: I hate to be a sourpuss but I'm not too confident that those "Knockoff Republicans" that just happen to be recent Democrats are going to be inclined to vote for such a resolution. But if they did it would be very entertaining seeing if they could do it with a straight face considering the hypocrisy of it all. I could be wrong though, because it's also mighty hypocritical to sit on a Republican Executive Committee and write checks to Democrat candidates. They do that with a straight face.

John Heermann: You got it exactly right.

Now it is time for the public to wake up and start paying attention, and quit right now electing stupid, and, or corrupt politicians.

John: You have struck the anvil hard with the perfect hammer of truth.

I hope someday soon our paths may cross, and we may together form a consensus of strength to forge the proper path forward the better truth that lights the way toward the reward of spiritual prosperity.

Biden was a figurehead. That video has it about right. The Politburo behind him needs to be exposed and those autopen documents declared null and void.

borderhawk: It does appear that the 2.0 version of Big Bob does find rounding up cartels and the like, illegally upon our sovereign soil to be unquestionably racist, as does Speaker Non Patriot Pelosi.

We went to war with England over taxes and lack of representation. Carlo Cipolla, an economic historian, noted that absolute monarchs never drew more than 5-8% of their nation’s income in taxes but today our federal government extorts between 40-60% in direct and indirect taxes. This trickles down through all levels of government. We need a fundamental change in Beaufort County that will destroy the current system that has produced bad and ugly, self-serving politicians and restore a government that allows for the development of, and is run by, statesmen. This is what a liberty-based society is built upon, as originally envisioned by our founding fathers and spelled out in the founding documents. The essence of a liberty-based society is that it has limited government, sound money, low taxes and is based on the free and unfettered consent of the governed. This has not existed in America for more than a century and a half. It doesn’t have to remain this way in our county, state or country. The population is starting to wake up and realize this. We also need a School Board that stands up to a leftist Superintendent who prioritizes indoctrination over actual education so that our children don’t grow up misguided and susceptible to the continued abuse inflicted upon our population by self-serving politicians and bureaucrats. IT IS TIME FOR OVERDUE, MUCH NEEDED, CHANGE! BRING ON DOGE! I encourage everyone to attend the Commissioner’s meeting Monday, March 10th at 5:30 and make your voices heard.

Van Zant: It will take a concentrated effort to bring to light the sins committed by the Superintendent and Board to the public at large. These people work for us, the constituents, and we need to remind them of it by showing up to meetings, speaking out against what is happening, and electing individuals who actually realize they represent the people who placed them in their positions. The last time I read the Constitution it said that our system of government is based upon the free and unfettered consent of the governed. Elected officials serve the public, not the other way around. Their power is derived from the people who elected them. At least that's how it is supposed to work in our free society as opposed to an empire or dictatorship. We must elect strong individuals of high moral character who understand this and have the fortitude and courage to do what is right and not operate like those currently filling these seats as discussed in previous comments below. The hypocrisy continues with these elected officials paying lip service to the public while pursuing their own personal agendas which place their own personal interests above those of the people they are meant to represent. The same can be said for most of our County Commissioners as well. We went to war with England over taxes and lack of representation. Carlo Cipolla, an economic historian, noted that absolute monarchs never drew more than 5-8% of their nation’s income in taxes but today our federal government extorts between 40-60% in direct and indirect taxes. IT IS TIME FOR CHANGE!

Soros funds a lot of those self-styled "fact check" groups. He is a globalist totalitarian ideologue, and funny thing, that is the political perspective of those "fact chackers". There is an old saying that you get what you pay for.

Getting the Knockoff Republicans to sign this resolution will be a good start - www.beaufortcountynow.com

Van Zant: What happens in Beaufort County, here in the age of DOGE, will be a fine indicator of who should stay elected, and who should be shunned as a political pariah.
