Thanks to all Conservatives who have kept me in office, even in these days when RINO candidates will profess to be a Conservative, but govern like a Democratic Socialist once they fool the public to get elected as the all too common Lying-"Conservative."
Self-Governed "public," it is up to YOU to KNOW who the RINOs are, and it is up to you to elect the right people to office, or the Waste, Fraud and Abuse will continue. And just who are RINO's, the Lying-"Conservatives?" That is all here in plain sight, for your perusal, on the current pages, and in the annals here on this long standing publication.

Commented on Big Ag PAC pushing Armstrong tied to group that tried to put NC shrimpers out of businessNC seems to have its own Deep State of special interest groups that are connected to each other. How can a group like this put so many thousands of dollars of dark money, that nobody knows where it really came from, into our district to try to buy this seat for Armstrong?
Kidwell has stood up against this Deep State. Armstrong is the candidate of the Deep State.

Commented on Big Ag PAC pushing Armstrong tied to group that tried to put NC shrimpers out of businessThe Marine and Estuary “Foundation” is a lobbying group started by Chuck Fuller, longtime Raleigh proponent of banning shrimping. The “foundation” pays lobbyists out of another shell org call NC Sound Economy, and BOTH receive funds from the CCA! The CCA said the bill was “not their idea” but in reality they were the ones funding these shell “foundations” to kill sprinkling and defeat Keith Kidwell and fund opposition to Destin Hall’s NC House Caucus that voted to stop the ban. It’s clear that this is an effort to flip the NC House blue, kill Keith Kidwell and Destin Hall’s agenda that PROTECTS OUR FISHERIES. We need someone to take a hard look at this Raleigh based group that creates shell orgs to destroy coastal communities

Commented on Conservative Club, Why?Somebody used my screen name below. That was NOT me. Personally, I do not see that argument being made in my name as being valid. That 4:06pm comment is NOT mine.

Commented on Conservative Club, Why?It's odd that Garris and her illegal in the shadows committee pretending to be the Beaufort County Republican Party Executive Committee are accusing a private political club of pretending to be the local GOP. This criminal element is accusing others of doing what they are doing. There has got to be some controlling authority in the state GOP or in the state Board of Elections to shut down this criminal enterprise. This is massive fraud on so many levels.

Commented on Big Ag PAC pushing Armstrong tied to group that tried to put NC shrimpers out of businessThat Shrimpgate video gives some very powerful reasons why we need to nominate Sen. Bobby Hanig for Congress and renominate Rep. Keith Kidwell for NC House. They were both heroes in stopping that special interest cram down.

Let's not forget that Armstrong and Raleigh RINO Steve Troxler are joined at the hip. Armstrong has had Troxler campaign for him several times and constantly mentions his endorsement by RINO Troxler. Troxler's anti-gun record led GRNC to endorse the Libertarian running against Troxler last election.
Like Armstrong, Troxler is a former liberal Democrat now trying to pass himself off as a "Republican". Troxler was chairman of Farmers for John Edwards in the campaign of liberal Democrat John Edwards for US Senate against conservative Republican incumbent Senator Lauich Faircloth. Armstrong was a major contributor in four figure sums over multiple campaigns to liberal Democrat state senator Marc Basnight.

Kidwell is a full-spectrum conservative. Armstrong is a special interest hack running to sever Big Ag and an out of state chemical company.

Commented on Conservative Club, Why?Thanks Van Zant: I don't do Social Media, and nobody is made smarter on Facebook, so I am not aware that these nefarious actions of the Beaufort County GOP.
I am aware that the Beaufort County GOP has, in the past, sponsored candidates that were far less conservative than those that were roundly considered Conservatives. Now, the Beaufort County GOP has elected not to meet to hold business meetings with the elected Executive Committee, and do business to promote all candidates running in the Republican Primary. In fact, some one remarked that the Beaufort County GOP has not voted to do any business for nearly a year now, and I cannot find fault with that observation. That behavior is entirely frustrating for Real Republicans here in Beaufort County.

Commented on Conservative Club, Why?In this primary season, who is on Facebook using the Beaufort County Republican Party name giving thumbs up to some Republican candidates and ignoring other Republican candidates? I wonder who authorized this. You know it wasn't the Beaufort County Republican Party Executive Committee. If it was (but it wasn't) they would be out of line too.

Germany, like too much of Europe, is being overrun with illegal aliens, who bring crime and welfare dependence. 61% of all welfare paid out in Germany is now paid to illegal aliens. Germany does not have many more election cycles to save their country.

Speaking of traitors, lets not forget that Thom Tillis is also crawfishing on the SAVE America Act.

China was systematically infiltrating military aged males into the US through BIden's open borders, so McConnell may well be working for Communist China in working against securing our elections against foreign citizens. The Chinese government set up McConnell's wife and father in law in a shipping company. The Chinese government provided the ships, the crews, and the cargoes and McConnell's family members got the profits.

Yep, I will continue to stand by Stan as he stands up for us.
Stan knows how to take a big punch, for all of us constituents, from those corrupt, possibly evil forces amassed, and then he stands back up, and hits back hard. I like that in a man that represents me and mine.

In the clear and real space of what is ultimately truth, The Epstein Files became a Democratic Socialist issue once president Trump's incredible agenda became a huge success, because Democratic Socialists only desire power and its corruptive essence.
Why else would they, and their pathetic propagandistic media continue their grand vapidity by LYING to those who are NOT smart enough to know better; their sad, their wretched foot soldiers of all that is wrong.

Mitch McConnell, through his wife, has always had close ties to Red China. Maybe the Chinese are pulling his puppet strings. Benedict Arnold McConnell has had a lot of health problems. The sooner he kicks the bucket, the better. Good riddance to a traitor.

Stan Deatherage is the proven conservative in the commission race. Over the years he has operated honestly and transparently. Not many in Beaufort County politics can say that. If Deatherage can be re-elected and one more like him gets through the commission election, Beaufort County can enter a new day in governance. A better day.

I am just now finding out about all these "RINOs" in Beaufort County politics, and what I hear about about them "RINOs" makes me real mad. I reckon them "RINOs" better steer clear of me when I get mad like this.

Stan Deatherage is one of those tried and true conservatives. He got his start decades ago in the Beaufort County Young Republican Club and has had an exemplary record as a county commissioner, having never voted for a tax increase.
He is a breath of fresh air compared to the poseurs, who switch their registration on paper from Democrat to Republican, but underneath remain the same old Democrat. Frankie Waters is a prime example of these fake "Republicans", switching on paper but still playing ball with the Democrats. We see several of those in the current primary like Monica Davis, who has been a Democrat most of the time she has lived in Beaufort County but switched on paper to "Republican" to try to pull the wool over our eyes in running for the school board. Another is Darren Armstrong, a longtime Marc Basnight Democrat, who now masquerades as a "Republican" to try to take our House seat.

Excellent piece Dave and Stan. Nothing more need be said. I just hope EVERY conservative, be they with a "D", "R" or "U" beside their name on the voting rolls will read every word of this and share it with as many like-minded voters as possible. Beaufort County has suffered to long and too much from these RINO's among us. For too many years we have been afflicted with those who see county government solely as a means to transfer wealth from those who have to those who neither care nor know better. It is high time that conservative governance be given a chance to show what it can do. If Stan is re-elected and one more conservative wins it will be a new day in Beaufort County. The Lord knows we need it.
