So you are still stuck on stupid, Little Bobbie? Longtime funder of the climate doom cause Bill Gates publicly climbed down from the position earlier this year, saying the climate doom narrative was just wrong. The UN's IPCC in their latest projections has withdrawn the two highest ones on temperatures completely and said the third highest was just there for academic purposes and was not going to really happen. The remaining ones are not in the climate doom level. Even that nutty Greta Thunberg has turned her back on climate doom and now spends her time being a cheerleader for the Hamas terrorists instead. You are behind the times, Little Bobbie. Many of the people who promoted climate doom have been jumping ship.

Actually there was an article from the English edition of the German news magazine "Der Spiegel" that made fun of a UN report that projected 50 million "climate refugees" by a certain year. which had just passed. The article pointed out that instead of 50 million , there had been NONE, and that population had increased rather than decreased in all the places the UN claimed the "climate refugees" would come from.

Also, the UN IPCC for years made two Pacific island nations (Kiribati and Tuvalu) "poster children" for being swallowed up by "sea level rise" due to "climate change". When scientists finally got around to studying what was actually happening there, they found that the islands in question were GROWING in size, not shrinking. Facts are funny things. They explode mere theories.

Joe Davis: As publisher, I know who most of the aliases truly are, and often I am amazed as to how some commenters will try to link the allowed aliases to the real names of certain people, and always, without fail, actually fail to do so in manner of accuracy.

I am personally often linked to Van Zant, and while I suspect who Van Zant truly is, it is not me. His signature diction is different than mine, and anyone that writes well would instinctively know that.

As a local elected official, if I take the time to write something in my real words, expressing my real thoughts, I will stick my real name on it.

I dont even talk like that. RINO republicans are the biggest issue the county party faces! Until they become the suppressed minority, the county will continue to suffer. Deatherage and Brinson are two key candidates to bring back sanity. It's time to stop with the same old same old.

BH- I'll blow your mind. immigration, legal or otherwise, will only get worse. Why? Climate change. As the earth heats and weather patterns change people gonna move. Just a fact.
Remember, not one of you could go a week without your A/C 5 months out of the year. Most of the world doesnt have A/C. And these people will move.
Its already happening.

Didn't Walker get Cheeseman to elevate a relative of hers to be an assistant principal for a slot that others were better qualified for and were in line ahead of her relative? Is that how the power politics of the school system operates? Jump people ahead based on the power of a relative?

Watch how the Walker faction plays the school board decisions with this $400,000. Won't be surprising that one of their friends or family members gets the psychologist job. That's why they work so hard to control who gets elected to the board. Trading votes for favors...it happened with Snowden...looks like it's happening again.

There are two many liberal elements of church denominations in the illegal immigration game, often soaking up taxpayer money to fund it. The United Methodists have been a big player in that, although not the biggest. That would probably be Catholic Charities. Hopefully, the Trump administration will get all this money cut off. Indeed, it would be nice to see some of these leftie hacks prosecuted for conspiracy to violate our immigration laws and for harboring illegal aliens.

Further, why is Ashley Woolard, a candidate in this election, still an active member of the Victory Committee?

You can expect a lot more of this, although Trump will continue enforcing federal immigration law against them caravans, something the Democrat traitors refuse to do.

What is happening right now in France and elsewhere in Europe is a VERY good reason that we need to fully enforce our immigration laws.

Bath parent, as I recall you were previously id'ed as a teacher at Eastern Elementary, and you seemed to be an ally of Cheeseman. That probably also means Walker.

You are probably worried about the race between "Republican" Monica Davis and Democrat Danielle Brinson. While Deatherage related the conversation he had with Mrs. Brinson outside early elections, he never made an endorsement in that race. Given that Davis has been a Democrat most of the time she has lived in Beaufort County, and only a recent opportunistic convert to the GOP, and she has not said a single conservative word in her campaign, many conservatives have been wondering what to do in that race. Now we know that Brinson is the more conservative of the two candidates. What each of us does with that will probably vary. I have not yet decided myself. For Republicans, two of our school board nominees this year are liberals, and that does not do much for our comfort level. One of the things we need to remember is that we absolutely have to do a lot better in the 2028 primaries.

We know that Carolyn Walker is trying to bring back another longtime liberal Democrat, Mack Hodges, as an opportunistically "reborn Republlcan" in another conservative seat in 2028.

$400,000 given to the School Board for psychological services will be nothing but wasted money for zero effect. This will result in another overpaid bureaucrat sitting at the county office pretending to solve a problem. No single person can effectively handle twelve schools and all the students needs. What about the additional money that will be needed for the lawsuits that will arise if there is a suicide that occurs that "could have been prevented" because the school's shrink didn't do their job? I'm sure there are better ways to help at risk children. Providing a 24-hour hotline and making it known to all children would be less expensive and possibly more effective. There may already be one but who knows about it. Seems very similar to the metal detectors that were absolutely necessary under Cheeseman but are not used. The perception of security and assistance is the goal...not thinking critically to provide the best solution possible to any situation.
