It’s S.C. Primary Election Day! Polls close at 7pm. It was an honor to record interviews with AG and Gubernatorial candidates to keep the public informed while polling primary voters on where they stand. Join SCPC on Fox Carolina News tonight to watch the results come in!

When government takes part ownership of a company taxpayers foot the bill, but they don’t get a say. It’s not capitalism. And it’s certainly not conservative.

Lots of reasons to be excited about the future of South Carolina, but this is one that’s personally at the top of my list. SC has long had some of the best golf in the country, and it’s great to see the recognition and investment coming in to create more. golfdigest.com/story/south-ca…

Guys we need to be going to the exact opposite direction: the nation owes you precisely nothing for having paid payroll taxes decades ago.

Conversations around US involvement in AI company equities are interesting. But the bigger conversation we should be having is this — why is social security indexed to inflation and not to our equity markets? It’s insane we haven’t had this public debate.

Today, on Memorial Day, we remember those who gave their lives for this great country. Their sacrifice should never be taken for granted. This country is worth preserving, and fighting for.

“The modern political environment does not reward principle. It rewards obedience. It rewards loyalty to personalities over ideas.” Well said.

South Carolina Governor @henrymcmaster has signed a grading floor ban into law that will prevent students from receiving minimum grades for poor academic performance. S.C. now leads the nation in setting merit-based standards in the classroom, ensuring that grades reflect actual student performance.

I dug into the House & Senate budgets. If the conference committee were to simply choose the lower funding figure already approved by one chamber for each agency, taxpayers could potentially save more than $137 M. My full breakdown for @scpolicycouncil 👇 scpolicycouncil.org/conference_com…

A new (and yet so familiar) addition to the iconic closing hole at Pebble Beach Golf Links. A second cypress tree has been planted, restoring the hole to it's original design intent and reinstating the signature look golf fans had come to know until the original was lost in a 2014 storm. 30 yards nearer the green than the other, the tree sits in the exact location of its predecessor and was transported down the road from Spyglass Hill's 17th hole.
