Janet: My observation, after nearly three decades of politically dealing with RINOs, these nominal "Republicans" always embrace the status quo, while possessing an unhealthy aversion to principled common sense.

On the other hand, RINO Whisperers have the astute ambition to use RINOs as if they are tools; simple, rudderless hypocrites that can be managed to do their bidding, which actually makes these Whisperers accomplices to a grand political mendacity.

We here at Eastern North Carolina Now are certainly happy that Mayor Pro-Tem Fritz submits posts to this publication, just as happy as we would be if anyone of Mr. Fritz's writing ability would do the same.

Amused Observer: I agree with everything you said to a point; that point being, most new politicians need guidance from leaders that understand the system, and actually how to truly "represent the people" by well knowing their constituents.

New politicians in Beaufort County have not done that well of late, except a precious few, and I can easily make that call.

Leftist Roy Cooper "screwed the pooch" in dealing with Covid here in North Carolina: What does it mean when he says Donald Trump would be, "an existential threat to our democracy."

First of all, the United States of America is not a "democracy." It is a Constitutional Republic.

The Democratic Socialists in charge of their Sanctuary Cities, of urban Minnesota, are creating another sociological environment that is reminiscent of the Summer of George, while many are stealing from their people and our Representative Republic by fomenting their massive Fraud, so sponsored, and finally investigated by the federal government under President Trump.

Van Zant: The commenter - Truth Be Told - may not be a RINO; rather, I believe "Truth Be Told" is actually a Democrat, or a Democratic Socialist.

Democratic Socialists have told me that they are very happy with the RINOs holding the majority on Beaufort County Commision as they have forged the Center-Left / Left Coalition to serve as lackey's of the Bureaucrat Class and other Special Interests.

"Truth Be Told" writes in the vernacular of a RINO, but I think their poorly considered words, moreover, represents the aspirations of the Democratic Socialists of Beaufort County.

Just to Reiterate a salient point in defense of my candidacy in the upcoming Republican Primary for Beaufort County Commission, the largest taxing authority is Beaufort County, tasked with assessing your property and setting tax rates to take your money no matter where you live, I am the one and only Proven Conservative running for election in that primary, for that most important seat.

I am not declaring that other Republicans may not learn to govern in a Conservative manner, I am simply and emphatically declaring that I have Never Voted for a tax increase in my 25 years of service, and I have proposed policy and oversight to cut tens of millions of Wasteful Spending to blunt the upward surge of the tax rate, where many other so-called "Republicans," excepting Conservative Commissioner Hood Richardson, have Not and would NOT do as I have done - Fight to Save Taxpayers' Money.

If there was any doubt before, this, and other political moves by the Marxist Mamdani, should put all to rest.

Nick: I envy you having what could become a Conservative majority on the Washington City Council.

In all my years as a Beaufort County Commissioner, I have never experienced such a fundamental governing ability to govern smart, created completely by having 4 smart people in what would constitute a majority of Beaufort County Commissioners.

Maybe my election in 2026 will prove different should I get elected, as the proven Conservative, and we elect a second Conservative.

JV: Other than being on the Executive Committee, I have never been an officer.

I have turned down the Chairmanship, on occasion, because I am not called to do such, plus, I have often been an elected public official, and I contend ...

Political officers and elected public officials should remain separate.

JV: There is so much mendacity afoot, and too many Republicans are caught up in this public lie, the foothills of this mountain of Fraud that destroyed this democratic process of that election, and they should have known better.

NO, the Vegetable President did NOT win the election of 2020. We know that now, with what the Non Patriot Left did to cover up their nefarious trail under the corrupt practices of the Deep State, the corrupt Democratic Socialist Party, and their corrupt Judiciary, pieces and parts, along with the propagandistic help of the Democratic Socialists Media, Orwellian in Scope ... All under the cover of the manufactured, but very real Covid, along with those "necessary" 40 million plus absentee ballots floating about willy nilly, employed to cheat their parts of this election Fraud of 2020, when needed, as we are now finally discovering in Fulton County, Georgia, the home county of the corrupt Democratic Socialist prosecutor, Fani Willis.

This Constitutional Republic will not continue to exist if the Deep State, the corrupt Democratic Socialist Party, and their corrupt Judiciary participants, and most importantly, their Democratic Socialists Propagandistic Media is not STOPPED, and stopped quickly.

The Republicans involved in this public mendacity must be found out, and dealt with similarly.

I am a voting member of the Republican Executive Committee, although I do not take an active role since I am in a Republican primary; however, I will make this one comment, which is 100% true: The Beaufort County Republican Party does NOT fully respect their Plan of Organization, nor do they apply the Republican Party Platform when it comes to dealing with Non Republican behavior by certain protected members, and have NOT done so for longer than a decade.

This Stan Deatherage declaration is inarguable.
Commented: Wednesday, December 31st, 2025 @ 5:17 am By: Stan Deatherage
This I know to be true - there are many so-called Republicans that put personality first, rather than being accepting of the differences within others; while forsaking the party platform when it suits them to do so.

This bullet point acceptance of what it means to be a Republican, which suggest a lack of depth within those who would attempt to lead, and act as a representative of others; therefore, they, in turn, act as the RINO Whisperers that lend credence to this inarguable RINO epidemic here in Beaufort County, a condition of which that has caused Beaufort County government to long suffer under its non "Republican" /Democratic Socialist leadership, a terrible spell of wrongly doing the People's business.

People get the government they deserve, and when RINOs and RINO Whisperers are in leadership positions, the People, in essence, are being lied to, and OUR Good People need to know these truths.

Christmas just would not be the same with the "Christ" part.

I really enjoy finding a church to visit on Christmas Eve, especially if I am out of town. If my church family did so, I would stay there at home.

Is this an epidemic by design, or just a stream of bad, stupid luck for Non Patriot Leftists?

The Hood is right: I was there; the Beaufort County GOP meeting, on December the 18th, was a complete fiasco, and an embarrassment to the local Republican Party, once again, and in every manner possible.

First, why have a political business meeting scheduled before a so-called Christmas party, when the business at hand was not properly broached? Secondly, why spend well over ten thousand dollars on a nonpartisan election, with NO Beaufort County GOP Executive Committee authorization or oversight, then not meet for 3 months during that election season, and then ham handedly attempt to tie a bow on such malfeasance at a planned Christmas Party?

It makes no sense whatsoever, especially when those at the meeting, who took umbrage with such terrible political behavior, were not allowed to speak directly to the issues so boldly recognized and at hand. It truly was not only a political fiasco, but one big ugly mess, and papering over such alleged malfeasance with the trappings of Christmas just made all of these muddled matters so much worse.

If anyone believes that the Vegetable Joe Biden, actually won the 2020 Presidential election in Georgia, then they may be a complete blithering idiot, every bit as much as the future Idiot President.

Fulton County, Georgia, is a corrupt county, and could have made the big difference in Georgia electing two Democratic Socialist US Senators as well. Ask yourself this: Why did Fani Willis believe she could prosecute a former and future president using fake laws, and get away with it? And there is your answer.

Democratic Socialist politicians do not do math, and you that vote these fools into office should well know that these fools not only tend your discretionary income, but your Representative Republic as well.

Gavin Newsom is such a disgusting and stupid politician that I have just now been inspired to give Oil Slick Gavin (formerly a Deatherage original) an even better name; where, on occasion, I will refer to the one that Mr. Trump refers to as "Newscum," as "Handjob" ... Yeah, you read it here first ... But, it won't be the last time I refer to Oil Slick Gavin as "Handjob".

It is just too perfect of a reference point for this incredibly ignorant politician, who possess no reasonable sense of self-awareness.

Agreed on all counts John.

When it comes to AI versus human art, which AI is not art because it is not human, I agree with it being highly regulated, and even classes to help humans know what is real and human, and what is not.

Also, I agree: At some point in your life, "pick up an instrument and learn to play," even if you never become a professional, learn to play.

Often, my wife, of 47.5 years, will ask me to play my guitar and sing for her, which I do almost every time she requests it.

I play what she likes to hear, and she loves it like I was one of here favorite musicians, and from that point on for the rest of that evening, I am so thankful that I 'picked up an instrument and learned to play.' One more thing, if one possesses any ear for music at all, playing an instrument will help to tune one's vocals.

For many years since the changeover to Marxism, the Democratic Socialist party has had a certain respect for the Venezuelan government, even disputing the President Trump's Article II powers to go to war against Narco Terrorists on the High Seas; even to the point of calling such actions of our President illegal, and advising military men and women to disobey direct orders, or themselves be prosecuted as a War Criminals when their Democratic Socialist party regains the power to do so.

Why would any patriot, or any smart American citizen ever vote for any Democratic Socialist for any office ever again?

Van Zant: I very thankful two more Republicans - Davis and Shreve - are added to that list in respecting the First Amendment.

For the life of me, and my life is very dear, I will never understand how other so-called "Republicans" don't understand that they must be circumspect of words used by Leftists, of which the word "HATE," and all it represents to the Democratic Socialists, is chief among them.

I am most happy to hear that my friends, School Board Members Charles Hickman and Steve Rader, are taking a stand for Free Speech, as opposed to the Leftist pronouncements regarding the origins of "Hate Speech," which are more akin to the antithesis to true Free Speech.

Confused? Then study up on what makes these States United ... America the Great, and our non Orwellian ... The First Amendment.

Yeah, well ... I hope the elected officials in Craven County have enough sense to not take Superintendent Cheeseman's advice by NOT choosing a title search, when it comes to using certain plots of land when building mega structures, for mega millions of the Public's money, all for "The Children."

Charles Hickman is not only extremely competent as a school board member, but one of the greatest political friends I have ever had. He is loyal, trustworthy, reservedly intelligent; humble in his wisdom of how to accomplish the placement of the puzzle pieces, while productively walking the better path, the one worth taking.

Charles Hickman must be re-elected; not for Charles; not for Stan; but for the Good People of Beaufort County.

Sailorbuoy: We don't get many Anti Freedom Atheists, who employ underthought ad hominem verbal attack against good character of a truly Good Man, a bold anointed man now assassinated by an incredibly confused Leftist, to this unqualified, indefensible point, while commenting loosely on this site - Eastern NC NOW.

Welcome regardless, and please inform any and all of your Low IQ contemporaries that they are also welcome to debate issues important to them, and if they are of complete thought, and of open minds, they will be properly educated here ... Of that truth, I assure you.
