When Columbia Passes Gas, the Cost Doesn’t Just Dissipate into Thin Air
- Details
- By James Spurck - Political Analysis
New transportation bills raise concerns about gas tax use, expanded spending, and whether SC lawmakers are drifting from past promises to taxpayers.

The South Carolina House Ways and Means Committee has advanced two major transportation bills, S.0831 and H.5071, moving them closer to a full House vote and setting off renewed debate over taxes, infrastructure funding, and legislative accountability.
Both S.0831 and H.5071 advanced out of committee, with both bills passing by a vote of 22 in favor, 2 opposed, and 1 not voting, signaling strong support despite growing opposition from fiscal conservatives and grassroots Republican activists.
At first glance, the vote may appear routine. But as more details emerge, critics argue the long-term effects may linger well beyond the initial legislative push, even after the initial explanation has already been clearly communicated.

As the almost 50-day partial shutdown drags on, travelers have definitely found some creative coping mechanisms for their long waits at U.S. airports. In Houston, one man went viral for walking up and down the security line with a vodka bottle, pouring shots for annoyed adults. Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson brought in live entertainment, a violinist who was supposed to ease some of the tension. “[A] violin playing like on the deck of the Titanic. Is it that bad?” one passenger joked. And in Baltimore, volunteers passed out “pick-me-up snacks.” Now that TSA workers are finally getting paid, Americans’ aggravation is starting to subside — just not where Congress is concerned.
Supreme Court Strikes Down “Egregious” Colorado Censorship Law

- By Eagle Forum
Today, the Supreme Court issued an opinion that removes the gag from the mouths of Christian counselors by upholding their First Amendment right to free speech.
This decision gives parents and children access to therapy that aligns with their personal and religious views. The Court struck down Colorado’s unconstitutional censorship law that prevented counselors from engaging in voluntary therapy that provides truthful information about bodily reality. The decision in Chiles v. Salazar reaffirms the important principle that counseling conversations are speech protected by the First Amendment. The Court’s 8-1 decision makes clear that “the First Amendment’s protections extend to licensed professionals much as they do everyone else.”
CatholicVote Urges Second Circuit to Protect Religious Freedom in Public Schools

- By CatholicVote
WASHINGTON — CatholicVote Education Fund (CVEF) has filed an amicus curiae brief with the United States Court of Appeals for the 2nd Circuit in support of Marisol Arroyo-Castro, a public school teacher who was reassigned from her teaching position after displaying a small crucifix on her classroom desk. CVEF’s brief calls for the reversal of the District Court’s decision, which it argues undermines fundamental First Amendment rights to free speech and religious exercise.
The case centers on Ms. Castro, a Catholic and dedicated seventh-grade social studies teacher in Connecticut, who kept a 12-inch crucifix on her desk as a source of personal strength and a reminder of her faith. The school district deemed the crucifix to be government speech and ordered its removal, citing concerns about potential violations of the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment. Ms. Castro was subsequently reassigned to a non-teaching administrative role, despite her 30 years of service and the district’s urgent need for social studies teachers.

Sometimes it may take many years, but finally the lies are exposed, the halos crash to the ground and vindication is awarded to the truth tellers. Pardon me if I am feeling a bit of satisfaction from some shocking revelations – finally! Let me start with some details of personal events from years ago.
In the 1970s I was a dedicated activist of Young Americans for Freedom (YAF) the largest conservative youth activist group in the nation. I became state chairman of the Ohio branch. It was a time of major Leftist activity on college campuses, including antiwar demonstrations and violent riots. It was the beginning of the drive for the radical agenda we face today.
