“When the Swamp Fighters become The Swamp”. Look no furrther than your local Freedom Caucus.

Want to see how disingenuous the South Carolina Freedom Caucus is? A perfect example. Rules 2 years ago created with 2 members of fc on the committee and proposed. Matter of fact the signature line was proposed by a Freedom Caucus member……yet the narrative on twitter and through these texts is somehow that it is (trigger the emotional words to create fear amongst republicans) “Nancy Pelosi” style House rules. It starts off by calling the Republican Caucus the “Swamp” yet they want to be in it? 🤔. This is the same tactics they used when trying to create a fear that consolidating DHEC would create an “Anthony Fauci” health czar in S.C. The entire time they are complaining about a “loyalty oath” by the Republican Caucus, their own Federal Freedom Caucus ousted a member for Campaigning against a member of the Caucus this year.
Sounds like they are being genuine huh?
The other question would be…….where do funds come from to send out text messages to people outside their districts?
Honestly, last year there was a push to change the rule to make FC members feel better about it and right before the meeting, the Freedom Caucus decided to put a letter out blasting everyone in the Republican caucus to ensure they couldn’t be let in. No different here. If you want to get back into the caucus, do you think it’s wise to call the caucus the Swamp before they take a vote to decide to change the rules voted on by members(including Freedom Caucus) members two years ago? Or do you see the BS I see in them trying to spin this up so they can play victim when things don’t go their way. I’ve saw that play by liberals for the past 20years. Ask yourself…….who are the real RINO’s in South Carolina? Just look at their website…the word Republican isn’t on it. Are they part of the Republican Caucus? No. So who are really the Republicans In Name Only in South Carolina?
And one more thing…….lets not forget their former Vice Chair and founding member is currently being investigated for Child S*x Abuse Materials
