Wow, Hood sure has Ms Garris in his head. I reached out to her to recommend a law firm for a consult for a defamation, slander, libel lawsuit. According to the State Board of Elections, your club no longer exists but you are still raising money. That’s a big no no. The only people you oppose are republicans. Makes you wonder…you are also being monitored.

E. FORFEITURE OF OFFICIAL PRIVILEGES

1. Removal or Resignation from Committees

Any current or former officer or member of a Precinct Committee, County Executive Committee, District Committee, State Executive Committee or State Central Committee who, for any reason, is removed or resigned from said position shall forfeit all rights and privileges in any way connected with that position.

3. Automatic Resignation. Any Committee member or officer of a County, District or State Republican Executive Committee campaigning in person, on social media, or in any other manner for a candidate, in any race, who is a not a member of the Republican Party and is running in opposition to a member of the Republican Party, shall have been deemed to have automatically resigned from the Committee and any position. In addition, no Committee member or officer shall serve as a treasurer or member of a campaign committee for any candidate, in any race, if that candidate is not a member of the Republican Par

Let’s check your vetting record. One candidate you recruited went to file to run for school board and wasn’t a registered Republican. He had to run as an unaffiliated. The other candidate you recruited to run for school board was not even registered to vote. She had to register before she could file. There is more but I think you get the point.

Are elected officials like Garris allowed to hold office on this executive committee? This Kidwell character is allowed to bloviate past his allotted times adding little substance while bullying his way through meetings like a bull in a china shop!
It’s time for him to go like Tillis or better yet just change your party affiliation from RINO to democRAT.
Anyone dissenting or questioning, especially Richardson appears to be ignored and stifled in their objections to seemingly parliamentary misdemeanors that are in fact serious transgressions of board etiquette.
Additionally, your committee leader Garris along with ex-officio member Kidwell appear to be attempting to ignore and burry a serious lawsuit. My recommendation is that real
Republicans resign and disown this organization if serious changes are not made especially before their liability is brought the court through this lawsuit.

Looks like JDavis may need some advice from Hood on how to deal with govt meetings where 3 of those voting will ALWAYS automatically disagree with anything that Davis is For. The beatings will continue.

I still havent seen a public meeting vote to hire the new manager.

It's clear to me that none of the very vocal people here watched the City Council meeting Monday. If they had, they would surely have something to say about the disgraceful and "premeditated" way Joe Davis was treated by the 3 Amigos. They appeared to be "organized" in their attempt to burn Davis to the ground. If one doesn't approve of Davis, then if they are being honest, one would also disapprove of the revenge tactics seen Monday, especially by Perreault. Yes, if Washington is broken, it's getting even more broken by the day. People should be able to disagree, without becoming mean and openly hateful.

Wow, The City Council held an old fashion Witch Burning last night, Or I could call it a RailRoading of JoeDavis. The three amigos, showed they ARE the CityCabal and will burn anyone who doesnt toe their Line. I'm seeing some very vengeful council members & there are 3 who would probably love for Rorie to sue any citizens who effectively criticizes their judgements. Very Scary!

The night's events were so dominated by Tyre that one begins to wonder if he is the secret Mayor & maybe CityManager combined. That man sure loves the sound of his voice. Perrault & Horton keep sharing All-Knowing glances w each other. Perrault even calls 4 the citizens to unite to torch Davis.

Early on, Rorie noted that he was hving "a Washington Moment." It was as if to say, all he had heard abt the City is true.
And Fritz looke lik a man who just landed on Mars & realized he is the only Human there, and if he is going to survive he's going to hav to begin composting his own poop to grow potatoes(TheMartian)

Mr. Hudson. Thank you for a respectful and pointed critique. This is a comment I can reasonably respond to. I do remember your many remarks you gave in defense of our school and am very grateful for them. My issue arises from what I believe the spirit of many of the comments were, provocative without any plan of action. The issue that I voiced to both members of the school board, the superintendent and those (like me) opposed to closing the was as follows: Why have we let it get to this point? There were rumors about Snowden closing for nearly a decade, we all knew that the standard was dropping and students were leaving, but people did not act until it was too late, and I include myself in the group. A woman at our meeting in Aurora summed it up perfectly, in my opinion, why were we not up in arms sooner? I respect your opinion that I feel below the mark, and I regret to admit you are probably right publicly. However, in private meetings with many people, I asked for any alternatives.

(commented on November 10th, 2025 @ 2:14 pm)
Sir. As I stated, I am a junior in college, and like many students, I remain a dependent of family. I split my time between my home in Aurora for most of the week and class days in Greenville at school, again as many students do, including Republican State Representative Wyatt Gable and newly elected conservative Greenville city councilman Seth Hardee. I'm also not sure what you mean by a real job. As I said, I worked full-time while attending school, playing sports, and being engaged in my community. I also stated clearly that I did not feel a politically driven stump speech would do people who were angry and grieving any good. You cannot make decisions based on emotion, but on facts alone, and riling up a crowd of people I love and care for would have been counterproductive. It is apparent, sir, that you have no desire to discuss policy or strategy but only degrade me personally. That is disappointing as I think you asked reasonable and genuine questions in your first response. Best.

(commented on November 10th, 2025 @ 1:32 pm)
Cont. from comment 1: Many in my community have reached out to me and were simply not satisfied with Mr. Hickman's leadership. They felt that this was not an overnight problem and that he did not do enough in his first two years on the board to help prevent the eventual result. Now to my youth. We have seen across the country a passing of the torch and an influx of youth into both parties. This should not be feared but celebrated, especially in the conservative movement. Students have been elected to statewide and municipal offices across the state. I would be the closest removed from Primary and Secondary education on the board, able to understand more closely the struggles that students and teachers alike are dealing with. I think this is a very positive trait to have. In further comments or communications, I can go more in-depth on my views and goals. They are simply too much for this thread. God Bless.

Enter your phone number(s) and email address(es).
Provide an address to receive alerts for a specific location.
That could be your home address, your workplace, your child's school, a family member's house or another area.

Reading the forum topics, I was once again convinced that there is no limit to creativity and the desire for comfort. Everyone shares tips, tells you how to cope with difficulties, speed up household processes, and improve the space around you. It is important not to focus on standard schemes, but to look for new approaches to solving familiar tasks, because it is creativity that often leads to unexpected but beneficial results. For example, tips on storage, organization of space, choice of materials and equipment — all this looks like a small mosaic that adds up to a picture of an ideal lifestyle.

But no cozy environment, even with the most modern solutions, will be complete without a reliable water supply. This raises the question of the well, because it is its own water source that often becomes the answer to the challenges of the time, rising tariffs, and interruptions of centralized networks. This is a sustainable solution for those who value stability and care about the fut

All three had good answers and truthfully getting three existing councils out and replace them with these three candidates will be a positive thing. It’s time out for just holding seats. Don’t vote for people because you know them or because of race but vote for the person that honestly care and wants change for all.

I recorded a Ray Whitley song (called "Let's Try Something New") around 1967 or so with Ray as our producer at the classic "Old Schoolhouse" studio in Brookhaven community where most of the Atlanta recorded hits of the 1960's were recorded (including the Tams hits) I really enjoyed that session and was sad to hear of Ray's passing.

John Valley: Good points, I guess only time will tell on DC's future.

On a little personal note, Dean Cain was my least favorite Superman and his acting skills went so far downhill to the point where he was "CANCELLED" and no-one would or will hire him for any roles, maybe he should have stayed out of politics as all actors should. He said that he left acting to focus on family, but I don't by it! The truth was that he was 99.98% "CANCELLED" because of his political views and statements.

Also, Christopher Reeve will always be the best Superman and one last cool fact, Reeve's son makes a guest appearance in the new film, and that is at least one good thing about the new film I suppose.

(commented on July 27th, 2025 @ 12:41 pm)
Dean Cain doesn't know what he's talking about! I did some quick research to find out that Superman 2025 is already a box office hit. The budget for that film was $350 million and it's already hit $415.1 million worldwide and climbing. So, it did not loss any money at all and everything earned from now on is straight profit!

How to Train your Dragon is doing a lot better with a smaller budget of $150 million and currently at a box office of $592.6 million worldwide which is some damn good profit right there!

Bingo VZ !
Gary Ceres was brought in (likely by the GOP V.C. cabal) to keep the conversation focused on Hood, and NOT on the despicable behavior of Tyre, Horton, and Perreault against a duly elected Council member (Davis) during the last City Council meeting. They are trying to
silence him, As it is said: Democracy dies in the dark.

Just think - if these govt people are willing to destroy a fellow council member, just think what they would be willing to do to us if we challenged their decisions. Me thinks the Progressives have added small town govts to their list of agencies they seek to dominate and control.

Inquiring minds want to know. What happened between Bobby Roberson and Perreault?
What happened at the Board of Adjustment meeting last night regarding their decision about Brabo's B&B?

(commented on April 14th, 2026 @ 11:30 am)
So Much is broken locally, it is hard to know where to begin.

Before and just after the Council election, the candidates were anxious to shine sunlight on everything. Now they have hidden themselves in a black hole, where the sun doesnt shine. Everything is done in
secret, and though Davis gives hints at to some of the secrets, it is still only hints.
Did the public scare the new council members into the shadows, or did the Inside-City-Cabal do that?

I'm looking for one of those "Give me Liberty or Give me Death" type of politicians. The County has one of those...he's called Hood.

First, let me acknowledge that the roles of County Commissioners and School Board Members are not easy. When done well, these positions require dedication, thoughtful decision-making, and hard work. Thank you to all who serve and help keep the county functioning as smoothly as possible.

That said, there is a quadrant of this county, the third largest of six townships and the fourth most populated, that is the source of the most local income and tax revenue and includes multiple communities and an incorporated town, that is now functioning worse from the decision of the School Board. This area and its school district are now destabilized. The elementary school and the people it served were not considered important enough for elected officials to explore reasonable alternatives before removing the school from an entire township community.

Consolidation has been ongoing for over a century. For the first 50 years, and during the 60s and 70s desegregation, it made sense. But as it has become more centralized, it increasingly fails to serve the unique needs of local elementary aged children, especially in remote communities like Aurora when viewed through the lens of child well being. Despite the education and experience among Board Members, the emphasis was less on children than on balancing the county’s overall education budget at the expense of one of its most underserved and remote school populations. Instead of lobbying for more resources to meet the actual needs, the Board chose to close the least visible school.

We’re hearing from families now forced to relocate, change jobs, or cancel their plans to move into the area. Others, who just moved here before the closure decision, are scrambling to figure out how to manage their children’s schooling and their family’s stability. Busing small children for long hours each day should have been reason enough to reconsider. But the impact goes beyond logistics; this decision is dismantling a community one family at a time.

Had proper impact studies been conducted, as required by state policy, the Board would have likely seen this coming. But for most Board members, this isn’t your district, and these aren’t your families being affected. While I don’t believe the decision was made with malice, I do believe that if this were your children, your school, and your community on the line, you and others would have made a different choice.

This article brings up some very concerning issues about Williams, who supports him and why? Is this the old boy system at work? Does it indicate future corruption? Certainly someone so eagerly sought after and endorsed by Democrats and defense attorneys brings up questions about whether Williams is a true Republican. How impartial would he be as a judge? Seems like he'll be soft on crime if defense attorneys are supporting him that much.

I suppose the most troubling thing is the question of ethics. Not only of the judges mentioned in the article and their decision to be involved in a campaign, especially outside their own party, but Williams' ethics or moral compass himself. A review of the Williams campaign finance reports does indicate the majority of his funding (between 67 to 87 percent based on differing analyses but clearly a majority) comes from defense attorneys. What will he owe them afterwards if elected? What do they expect in return for their support? However, the biggest concern for me came in the mail. I got a letter promoting Williams, a palm card or brochure, that came in an envelope with a return address of Jones & Sasnett, P.A. in Washington, NC. The postage wasn't a peel and stick stamp but a Pitney Bowes stamp machine ink printed postage mark. It appears from this that Jones & Sasnett paid for the mailing, a campaign contribution. This seems to violate Campaign Finance laws about taking contributions from corporations or businesses. Whether this is a violation of Campaign Finance law or not and the repercussions are above my knowledge level. It certainly brings up serious moral questions in addition to legal questions regarding Williams and his campaign. It is even more concerning when you expect someone wanting to be judge doesn't seem to follow rules, laws, and seems questionable in their activities to get there.

Good morning Mr. Blinson,

Thank you for your article of June 17. It was amazing. So many points that I and those of us who have taken a great interest in, you have summed up in this piece. You are so correct that Snowden is a big part of this entire picture currently, but the bigger picture is as Snowden goes, so goes the County of Beaufort. It is not about consolidating everything and pulling it all closer to Washington. That should not be their growth plan. Tt is more about the County Leaders having the foresight to push economic development and growth to all parts of its territory. "Share the wealth and the wealth will be shared with you guys." It is a sad day when a small town feels the need to cross County borders for a vast number of resources; thereby, increasing the economy in its neighboring county, Pamlico, who opened its arms to Aurora/Richland Township residents.

Sincerely,

Joy Peele Dunn, President
Aurora Richland Township Chamber of Commerce

Auditor, you are certainly correct that this information is held inside the city's books. Auditors can not add or delete information, only verify and perhaps reorganize. The problem is that the books are not open to the public. Since November 4th, I've requested three simple bits of information several times: 1. If any debt has been added during this fiscal year, and what our current total debt is. 2. What percentage of the budgeted amounts has been spent in each fund and how much we are below budget. 3. If we wanted to pay off any debt, how much is unrestricted and available for us to do so. When I asked Greenville for this information I received it in a few hours. I have yet to receive it from Washington.

Your accusation of my ignorance or deception is curious. I do not claim to be anything more than a citizen-representative reporting back to my fellow citizens. While I am certainly not a municipal accountant, and I suspect neither are the other 99.99% of residents and former city councilmen and mayors, I have a rudimentary grasp of finance and accounting. Like most, I rely on the high-paid director of finance, the finance department, and the expensive outside annual audit for information. When none of that information is supplied expeditiously or intelligibly, I have little recourse except to become suspcious and seek outside opinions. If you have this skillset, I highly encourage you to investigate and I would greatly appreciate your feedback.

My goals are pretty straightforward. I want to lower our property tax rate and naturally the budget is a fairly big part of that. The audit is inordinately important to me because I cannot get these numbers from our finance department and I'm trusting that I will get them from the auditors.

I do not leap to the conclusion that things are nefarious. The state auditor said that sloppiness is far more common than graft. What I am saying is that this information has been elusive. I cannot speak to past experience or history, I can only speak to my personal experience since November 4th. And I intend to continue relaying that experience openly to all who care to hear about it. I appreciate your reading and I appreciate any advice and criticism.

Stan, we have a real opportunity during this election. Lou Hodges is not running; William Pitt withdrew from the race; and Brooks barely skated in last time. That's three potential seats. If the conservatives in Washington really turn out this year the Republicans will control the Washington City Council for the first time in living memory. We can accomplish amazing things. If we use that wave of enthusiasm we can tip the scales during the County Commisioners race and we can have the the city and county controlled by conservatives! This is the year to make great things happen! Let's ruduce property tax to nearly zero percent, trim the budget by 10%, cut utility costs by 10%, and ferret out all corruption, waste, fraud, and abuse!

My understanding is
Brooke McGowen won the popular vote by 4 votes. Because the rules use a weighted vote- the # of qualified delegates at each district is included. I think Beaufort County has 40 qualified to come to the convention. Only 13 of us were there voting but once we had a majority voting for Brooke McGowen instead of Jason Simons, she got 40 “weighted votes”
She lost by 805 votes.
Some counties have hundreds of qualified delegates.
Sooo… we as a smaller county could increase our voting power if we could enlarge the # of eligible delegates.

I was just asked if the previous comments signed by "Terry" was from me. NO it was not. If I comment on here I will always sign my full name "Terry Williams". I'm never ashamed to stand behind my comments. Thank you for letting me clear this up.

Well, it was at least refreshing to see that Steve Rader corrected you on your statement that Daniel Hudson and myself was "trying to steal Steve Rader's fire" on suggesting we hire a local attorney. It was indeed Daniel Hudson who brought it before the board after he and I discussed this multiple times. Secondly, your comment that "I stated I would never vote for anyone other than Tharrington and Smith to represent the school board" is grossly incorrect. I stated I would not vote to remove them from retainer but voted to search for a local attorney to use on a day to day basis. Thirdly, your comment that CPS Principal was incorrect on stating that Snowden parents and students are completely happy at CPS, an "A" rated school, shows you haven't been at the school. I've visited the school at least 10 times since August and see how much these students are benefitting. Maybe try visiting the school yourself. Your readers deserve better or better yet watch the video themselves.

Rino Hunter - this probably is my last comment here because apparently no one on here is interested in the truth. Where did I say the Snowden discussion was behind closed doors? No where did I say that. Besides if you want to have a transparent conversation then sign your name and stop hiding behind the ridiculous Rino Hunter. So easy to make unsubstantiated claims when you hide.

It is not hard to be taken in by the official sounding language of elitists. So educated, so smart, so clear that they think of themselves first, since they are so entitled to rule and reign and at the same time they don’t do the job they were hired to do.

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.

I’m looking for unbiased information about our government and community matters. This sounds like a political rally cry. Please consider joining the journalism movement to stop being partisan and continuing the civil divide. This is why newspapers and corporate media is drying up. We the people are in a crisis of confidence in our representatives and government services that help the people without millions or billions of dollars. We still count and right now we need Responsible Journalism and not hate divisive rhetoric.
