Commented on 11/04/2025 Precinct Sort and 2026 Candidate FilingI will be filing for re-election to the Beaufort County Board of County Commissioners on Tuesday Morning. I am praying that this time we achieve a Conservative majority., so that we can turn the government of Beaufort County around toward a far more limited government.

The Democratic Socialists, after employing their precious Covid Initiative in Economic and Sociological Disruption, and The Summer of George to wreck the economy, in order to bring all low intellect people closer to Socialism, are now ironically stressing "affordability."
Mr. Trump's lead ambassador for the economy, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, is working diligently to turn the Broken Biden Economy around for who wish to work to participate, and thrive.

Commented on City of Washington Government Will Know ChangeI went to Facebook today to see what the Facebook Intellensia is bemoaning about the shakeup in the City of, which was a process of me scrolling through many posts before I found what I was looking for, which took too much of my precious time, and I discovered three things, all of them interrelated:
1. Facebook's pathetic system of scrolling through individuals expressing and exposing themselves, while offering a very limited ability to search, as per subject, is not only antiquated, but suggests that there exists a dim narcissist stain upon all of the site's content, also expressed and exposed. 2. Nobody, and I mean nobody, gains any real, functional knowledge by using Facebook as a primary informational resource. 3. Regarding the Upending of Washington's City Government, which would have been far greater if the Beaufort County GOP had not thoroughly Screwed the Pooch by getting involved, far too many of those City of Washington comments relating to this discussion of abrupt governmental change, exhibited a limited knowledge of how local governments work, and, or should work. My analysis: Education, which is already in place, needs to spread farther and wider, and the limits of Facebook just is NOT helping ... Additionally, and I reiterate: Nobody gets smarter wallowing in Facebook.

Commented on City of Washington Government Will Know ChangeJohn Steed: The corrupt former City of Washington governing council is content to steal from the Good People of Washington, so let's all support the new majority of the new City Council, who are willing and capable of taking back our government, from The Corrupt, to give it back the Good People; their wise constituents that elected them to do so.

John Steed: Local county governments are impacted by Illegal Aliens by millions of local dollars per year, per government.
Then there are the free medical expenses for Illegal Aliens, which are driving up the medical expenses of all American citizens that will surely bankrupt medicaid and medicare if measures are not immediately taken.

You have begun your path to making a big difference for We, the good People of Washington, and I, as one of your constituents, do very much appreciate it, and ... Happy Thanksgiving to all the good People of Washington. We have deserved so much better, for so very long, and now we have a very good chance of starting down that good path together. Nick Fritz, please lead the way.

Commented on Special Meeting NoticeConcerned Taxpayer: The problem with these types of contracts in Beaufort County is that Democratic socialists, and RINOs, who swap votes to share power, those who work-hand-in-iron-glove with bureaucrats to forge these documents, which may not be legitimate politically at the least, and legally at the worst.
At what point can one governing board obligate a new governing board, and be clear of the legal fall-out? This is a most fair question since this is the People's government and the People's money to fund it.

Commented on Special Meeting NoticeRINO Hunter: One of the largest understandings that I have gained from 25 years as a county commissioner is that corrupt practices lead to corrupt governing, which eventually leads to abject winners and losers, where the public's treasury, taken and re-distributed, was never the politicians' charge to do so if there was NO fiduciary commitment within that process of allocation.
Additionally, once there is discovery of a pattern of corrupt practices leading to great damage to the People, then the People have many avenues of recourse, as they should; many of which are political, some are judicial.

Commented on Special Meeting NoticeOne more thing Bubba: I have talked to Lawyer Rader about doing some suing myself regarding some serious premeditated malfeasance that was fraught with all grades of incompetence.
Now that I see a political trend evolving with the City of Washington to reward some, while punishing others, it looks my case could be known as what some refer to as a SLAM DUNK.

Commented on Special Meeting NoticeI am in full agreement Bubba. As a Beaufort County Commissioner, I would threaten any fellow county commissioner to sue them independently for any action resembling premeditated malfeasance, such as what I am seeing now.
As an elected official, with a strong fiduciary to one's valued constituents, one just does not participate in these injustices to the People, the Good People who expect and deserve the diligence of serious representation.

Commented on Making Republican SausageThis Jonathan Russell character can resign whenever he wishes, however, he just canNOT receive any additional taxpayer monies until an investigation is conducted as why and how this has come to pass.
I know enough about local government to sense improprieties may be afoot, and if I, as a Beaufort County Commissioner and as a City of Washington tax payer, cannot see a purely proper governing path to this, arguably speaking, additional fleecing of the City of Washington taxpayers, I will raise a mighty and sustained objection, and I will object to the lengths of my ability to do so.

Commented on Making Republican SausageHopefully, one day soon, we can bid good riddance to Frankie Waters and his acolyte, Randy Walker, on the Beaufort County Commission. Having said that, we real elected Republicans have gotten NO help from the Beaufort County GOP to enforce Republican values as stipulated by the Republican Party Platform.
In essence, the RINO Whisperers have been NO help whatsoever, and they will ruin the Republican brand here in Beaufort County if left unabated.

Commented on Making Republican SausageSteve: If the City Council did not take action by ratification in open session, nothing that they did in closed session is valid, and smacks of attempted fraud.
The City employee, as if he was directed to do so, misstating the governmental roles in real time of said officials is very troubling.

Commented on Making Republican SausageLocal politicians are a disparate bunch.
Some are RINO Whisperers, who will do whatever it takes to aggregate power, and others are Conservatives to their core believing in the maxim that less government equals less corruption in providing essential services, and more freedom, in living life as an American citizen, is paramount in this Constitutional Republic. I know where I stand, and it is my profound and prolonged dream that one day we can educate enough good, curious citizens, so that one day I will finally stand in the Conservative majority here in Beaufort County.

Tying funding to any DEI disallowance, will not pass with the current board of county commissioners because the Center-Left /Left Coalition will not back this issue tied to funding because funding is what they most enjoy; however, it is a good campaign issue until the real work can get done later, when there is a real Republican majority.

Commented on City of Washington Municipal Election PostmortemThe City of Washington elections were dictated by turnout, which was low, not historically, but low from what I am used to.
When I run for office, I talk specifically about issues that drive people to vote for either their personal, and, or patriotic concerns; hopefully for both. The key for higher turnout is education: First for the politicians in their speech; but, moreover, for the voting public in their better perception of that good and patriotic speech spoken and professed.
