COVERING BEAUFORT COUNTY

ELECTION 2020

LOLITA HUCKABY

Let the voting begin

BEAUFORT bsentee voting stations opened in county election offices across the state Monday and from reports, there was a steady line of folks interested in doing their democratic duty. According to statistics from the state elections office, 29,748 applications for absentee ballots had been submitted as of Oct. 2. Compare this to the 134,272 registered voters in the county and you can see folks are planning ahead. Office hours are 9 a.m. to 4 pm., Monday through Friday and from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 31. In the past, absentee voting was limited to those older than 65 years of age or individuals who would be away from home on Election Day. But this year, because of the virus, restrictions were lifted and any registered voter can go to one of three locations in the county – the Voter Registration and Election office on John Galt Road near Lowe’s; in Bluffton at the county satellite office at 61B Ulmer Road; or on Hilton Head Island at the satellite office at 539 William Hilton Parkway. The last day for in-person absentee voting is from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday, Nov. 2. Don’t forget to bring your ID! Only 53 percent counted BEAUFORT – With all the strangeness of 2020, we probably shouldn’t be surprised that only 53 percent of Beaufort County residents have responded to the official U.S. Census. The deadline for filing census forms has been extended through the month to Oct. 31, and local government officials – those that don’t have to focus on election plans – are continuing to beat the drum to get folks to fill out those forms. It’s interesting to read online some of the reasons people are giving for not filing out those – largely concern about giving out personal information that could be used later “against them.” It’s a strange world and who knows. But the population counts ARE used for establishing voting districts, determining grant eligibility …and impact the future makeup of the electoral college, a matter of considerable interest come presidential election time.

Supreme Court: Witness signatures required on absentee ballots Updates from local forums and in-person voting By Mindy Lucas On again. Off again. That was the story of the much-deliberated witness signature on absentee mail-in ballots this summer. But in the latest decision handed down Monday night by the Supreme Court, witness signatures on absentee ballots are now required once again. The court’s decision reverses an earlier ruling by South Carolina’s 4th Circuit Court of Appeals that effectively said a signature was not

Elections. The law does not specify who a witness has to be. “Right, it can be anyone,” Smalls said. “So it does not have to be some type of qualified voter or person.” And don’t forget to sign your own ballot. Ballots require two signatures – yours and that of a witness. While missing signatures have not been that big of an issue so far, Smalls said, it’s still important to make sure your ballot is complete before mailing it back or it could be disqualified.

A normal day on the campaign trail?

Not quite, but it’ll do said candidates at a ‘Get Out the Vote’ event on Saturday

By Mindy Lucas The Beaufort County Democratic Party and U.S. Rep. James Clyburn held a “Get Out The Vote” kickoff rally and “Drive-By Fish Fry” on Saturday, Oct. 3 at Whale Branch Middle School in Seabrook. While Rep. Clyburn was not personally on hand for the event, the fish fry was one of four the congressman was sponsoring in his district over the weekend. Local candidates who were on hand for the event said the fish fry was a chance not only to remind residents of down ballot races but an opportunity to network with each other as well. “I think it’s a fantastic idea,” said Barb Nash, who is running for S.C. House District 124. And while local candidates have been using social media to reach vot-

ers or meeting software like Zoom for forums or meetings, those “virtual events” just aren’t the same as talking to people face to face, Nash said. “It’s not the same, but this, this is a middle ground,” she said, pointing out that everyone at the event was keeping their distance and wearing a mask. Saturday’s event and others to follow are undoubtedly a sign that things are different – even on the campaign trail this year. Usually held in Columbia, the congressman’s “World Famous Fish Fry,” for example, can easily draw more than 1,000 people including a who’s who of Democratic party representatives and officials and, every four years, presidential hopefuls. But because of the coronavirus, Clyburn decided to do away with this year’s event in favor of smaller get-togethers held throughout his district. On Saturday, local candidates greeted cars and SUVs from the curb in front of the school, as drivers lined up for information on voting and of course, a basket of tasty fried fish. Volunteers were planning to fry

Walk for Water virtual walk raises more than $58,000

From staff reports Nearly 400 people from across Beaufort County joined forces in September to raise more than $58,000 in this year’s Beaufort Walk for Water. Participants walked “together” in spirit as part of the organization’s first-ever virtual event, joining one of 24 different teams or walking on their own in neighborhoods and parks in Beaufort, neighboring islands and Bluffton the last two weekends in September. The virtual approach — necessitated by the ongoing coronavirus pandemic — was an almost-unexpected success, according to Robert Lasher, Beaufort Walk for Water committee chair. “We weren’t sure what to expect, but the community rallied around the walk again this year,” Lasher said in a release. “The virtual event allowed people to walk in smaller groups with fewer

people around them, so they could feel safe and still be part of a bigger effort.” Participants walked 3-mile routes carrying a bucket to symbolize the walk millions of women and children in developing countries make daily to collect water that’s of-

ten contaminated. The walk promotes awareness of the global water crisis and raises money for Water Mission, a Charleston-based Christian engineering organization that builds safe water solutions in developing countries and disaster areas.

Half of hospital beds in developing countries are filled with people suffering from water-related illnesses, and every 37 seconds someone dies. The virtual approach actually added to the community connection for Sarah Folzen-

logen of Lady’s Island, a veteran participant who walked this year with a small team in Beaufort’s historic district. “It felt more community-oriented, knowing there were people all over the area walking at the same time for the same purpose,” Folzenlo-

gen said. “I’ve been to Kenya on mission trips and seen how far people have to walk for water — and it’s not even clean water. This walk really hits home how fortunate we are.” For more information, visit the Walk for Water site at bit. ly/Bftwalk20.

Investigation of accident on McTeer Bridge continues PORT ROYAL – As of

press deadline, the investigation into the Sept. 19 accident on the McTeer Bridge which left a pregnant mother and her three children dead continues. A report issued last week by the Port Royal police department stated a 19-yearold male in a gold Chevrolet Malibu and another vehicle,

who waved and passed campaign materials to those who drove by on Saturday, said the pandemic has changed the way candidates have campaigned this year. And it has made it harder for local or smaller races to grab the attention of voters, he said, even those on the same ticket. The latest news out of

Washington and races such as the one heating up between U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham and Democratic challenger Jaime Harrison, have captured the attention of most voters now, he said. “So it’s hard for these down ballot races to get attention,” he said, adding that that was why Saturday’s event, which

enabled residents to get out and see the candidates, was so important – even if they only had seconds to pass a card or a sticker to voters driving by. Still, local candidates continue to look for opportunities to campaign. Jodie Srutek, who is running for a seat on Beaufort County Council, was also at

Saturday’s event. And while Srutek is not on the ballot in Beaufort or Seabrook – District 7 is based in Bluffton – she still felt it important to be there. “It’s more of an opportunity to listen,” she said. “To see what’s important to people here.” It also provided a much-needed sense of nor-

malcy, she said. “One of the last normal things I did was the ‘Turn it Blue BBQ’ in Charleston,” she said. That event? It was in January – some ten months ago. For those on the campaign trail, pre-pandemic events like those now seem like a lifetime ago.

8-year-old shot in hunting accident suffers minor injuries

An eight-year-old suffered minor injuries after being shot in a hunting accident in a residential area in Burton, on Friday, Oct. 2, officials say. The 8-year-old was struck in the arm by a single buckshot pellet while playing in the yard of a home on Ramsey Loop, according to a statement released by the

S.C. Department of Natural Resources. The injury was non-life-threatening, the statement said. Officers responding to the scene at about 5:45 p.m. on Friday determined that a group of deer hunters had been conducting a dog-driven hunt in the area and had fired several shots at a running deer.

Empty shotgun shell casings were found by an SCDNR K-9 team, or an officer and his dog, approximately 275 yards away from the home where the child was playing, the statement said. The incident remains under investigation by the department. – Mindy Lucas

Sound Investment Advice Doesn’t Have to be Expensive, and Bad Investment Advice is Never Cheap

Presented by Fred Gaskin

o state the obvious, 2020 will be a year that investors remember for a very long time. Thankfully, many investors have remained focused on the long term, and despite some volatile periods, have weathered the ups and downs of the markets. Clients frequently ask what they should be doing with their portfolios. As a financial professional, I’m encouraging people to get gutsy and ask themselves and their financial professional a question they probably haven’t asked before: How much am I paying in fees?

It’s a question that you might expect would have a simple answer, but if you dig into it, you might find yourself doing a bit of head scratching. In the world of financial services, there are different kinds of fees—trade commissions, fund fees, and advisory or management fees to name a few. While cost is only one factor when it comes to dissecting the value of an investment or your relationship with a financial professional, it’s important for investors to understand what they’re paying, why and how these costs impact their returns. According to a 2013 Schwab study1, 83 percent of

investors do research before making a major purchase. Yet, just half of investors say they know how much they pay for their investments and only 16 percent who work with an investment professional have asked how fees and commissions impact their portfolio’s returns. But the fact is a seemingly small difference in fees can make a potentially big difference in your return, especially over time. It’s important to understand, however, that not all investing fees are bad. It’s really a matter of understanding the value you are getting from what you pay. You might be willing to pay a slightly

higher fee for different kinds of services that add value, such as more personalized financial planning or a higher-touch relationship. Maybe you’re a small business owner with a specialized set of financial needs that require more help and attention from a financial professional. A couple ways to be more aware of the fees you’re paying are to regularly review your statement and ask your financial advisor directly about the different fees you are paying, why you’re paying them and how they are impacting your financial goals. Starting with these questions will help you become

more knowledgeable and confident about your finances and the value you’re receiving. But don’t stop there! Keep asking questions and stay engaged, because these can be your most valuable assets when it comes to achieving long-term financial success. I’ve said before, managing your investments doesn’t have to be complicated, but as you consider your investment alternatives, it’s important to recognize that oftentimes, the less you pay, the more you keep.

Fred Gaskin is the branch leader at the Charles Schwab Independent Branch

in Bluffton. He has over 35 years of experience helping clients achieve their financial goals. Some content provided here has been compiled from previously published articles authored by various parties at Schwab.

Today’s Engaged Investor study was conducted by Koski Research from April 8-17, 2013, among 1,000 Americans ages 25-75 with $250,000 or more in investable assets and who are highly engaged in their lives. The study was conducted using an online panel of investors. The margin of error for the sample is three percentage points. 1

Definition of pain updated for first time in four decades to make it more inclusive

Johns Hopkins Medicine pain experts have joined the International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP) and collaborators worldwide to make a subtle but important update to the definition of “pain” for the first time in 40 years. With this change, the experts aim to make pain diagnosis and management more inclusive of all people who experience it. The revised definition is published in the September 2020 issue of the journal PAIN. “Pain is not just a sensation or symptom. It is a much more complex condition that is important to acknowledge properly to guide basic science research, patient care and public policy,” says Srinivasa Raja, M.B.B.S., professor of anesthesiology and critical care medicine at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and chair of the IASP task force that created

Assessments instead need to look at the whole person, accounting for the cognitive, psychological and social factors that are critical to treating pain.”

the revised description. According to the researchers, the new pain definition — the first update since 1979 — features a key phrase (shown underlined): “An unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with, or resembling that associated with, actual or potential tissue damage.” “Pain cannot be simplified

to a 0 to 10 scale. Assessments instead need to look at the whole person, accounting for the cognitive, psychological and social factors that are critical to treating pain,” says Raja. The phrase is important, say the researchers, because it includes types of pain not well understood 40 years ago, such as nociplastic — where pain receptors are stimulated without evidence of the cause, such as with fibromyalgia — and neuropathic pain caused by a sensitized or maladaptive nervous system, commonly associated with chronic pain conditions such as persistent pains after surgery, nerve injuries and limb amputations (commonly called “phantom limb pain”). The revised definition also is more inclusive of people who cannot express their pain in words. The previous definition used the word “described,” which excludes

The updated definition can ultimately have an impact on access to health care, if adopt-

ed by insurance providers. A 2016 survey by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that 20.4% of U.S. adults live with chronic pain and approximately 20 million reported that pain limits the ability to accomplish tasks in their work and daily life. “When pain affects peoples’ function, psyche and their social well-being, it

needs to be recognized by insurance carriers that dictate who gets care and what aspects of their multidisciplinary care are reimbursed,” says Raja. Overall, the IASP task force says the revised definition has provided a starting point to integrate more evidence-based and holistic pain management into medical and mental health care.

Gov. McMaster opens state’s restaurants at 100 percent By Mike McCombs Gov. Henry McMaster announced on Friday, Oct. 2 that South Carolina’s restaurants would once again be able to

operate at 100 percent capacity, effective immediately. “South Carolina is open for business” McMaster said in a release. “Our state’s approach

Our Story Growing up outside of Las Vegas, Brian Fackrell was often up to no good. This prompted his mother to jokingly refer to him as that Rotten Little Bastard. Many years later, when Brian and his wife and kids moved to the verdant Lowcountry of South Carolina from the Nevada desert, they not only found a new home, but a new lifestyle. This big city worldliness meets relaxed southern charm is reflected in the quality of each handcrafted bottle of spirits from Rotten Little Bastard Distillery. Local products are used to create our spirits, while sustainable packaging shows our family’s commitment to the future. At our Distillery, you will be treated like an old friend and that comfortable Lowcountry relaxed feeling will follow you home in every bottle. Beaufort residents since 2003; RLB is family owned and operated. Our Craft Distillery uses local ingredients, made in the USA bottle, and we partner with Whippoorwill Farms in Ridgeland they take our spent mash and feed it to pigs and chickens. You can take a tour of the Distillery and we offer Tasting Tours for $10, which includes a free shot glass. Afterwards, you can buy a bottle of our Vodka, Moonshine And Bourbon. People can taste our spirits and get a behind the scenes look at how its made.

ecutive Order 2020-63 – the state’s restaurants were operating at 50% capacity. Two other major safety restrictions on the state’s restaurants remain in place until further notice – the required use of face coverings for patrons and staff and the governor’s “last call order,” which prohibits the sale or consumption of alcohol in restaurants after 11 p.m. At least one Beaufort area establishment won’t be changing what it’s doing anytime soon.

he said, “so we’ll keep doing what we’ve been doing to help ensure the safety of our staff, not to mention our customers.” Borreggine said Fat Patties’ ability to conveniently provide outdoor seating, given the more pleasant climate during the fall, was also a factor in his decision. There are still a number of safety measures that are no longer required but strongly encouraged. Per the Governor’s release, they include the following: • Restaurants should space indoor and outdoor tables 6 feet apart, to the extent possible. • Restaurants should limit seating each table to no more than 8 customers and patrons, exclusive of family units or members of the same household. • Restaurants should adopt and enforce a process to ensure that customers and

patrons are able to maintain a minimum of 6 feet of separation from other parties while waiting to be seated. • Restaurants should minimize, modify, or discontinue services that allow customers and patrons to fill or refill their own beverage cups.

I will no longer see myself as someone who needs to be fixed

here is something wrong with me. I know this. I feel this. I can see this in what I say and do. Every cell of my body says there is something lurking there that does not belong. The problem is that I can’t figure it out. I am losing sleep over it. My mind is constantly searching through trap doors and behind curtains in hopes of some grand discovery. I want that “aha!” moment.

LAURA KAPONER

Because maybe if I know what it is I will know how to fix it. How easily I forget that I am not in this search and

rescue mission alone. I can’t be because I simply do not have all the tools to get the job done. I am mentally ill, or at least I used to think I was. Now I realize my identity extends far beyond this part of me. I have a mental illness, and this illness can hold me back from seeing things clearly. I need others with training, foresight and far more knowledge than myself to

see things from the outside in. I need these same exact supports to help me see things from the inside outward. I know something is wrong. At the very same time, I do not know what it is. This is a very scary place to be shrouded in uncertainty. Sometimes I just want to crawl into a ball and wish it all away. But I can’t. I need to fight this. I need

to not be a victim of my circumstances. I need to be the warrior who changes them. If I continue to see myself as someone who needs to be fixed, then I am making myself into something that is broken. Just because my pieces fit together in an uncommon way, does not mean they are not exactly as they should be. Maybe what I think is wrong with me, is really just something that is different

within me. Maybe I need to stew in the uncomfortableness of it to figure out what to do with it. And maybe I need to trust in my supports as well as myself that this perceived wrongness may be an unexpected opportunity for growth.

EAGLES SOAR

in season-opening rout of Trojans By Gabriel Jenkins LowcoSports.com The Beaufort High Eagles were eager to finally roll out their new home turf Friday, and they channeled their enthusiasm into a dominant 48-6 win over the visiting James Island Trojans. Even with the crowd at limited capacity, the atmosphere in the stadium was electric for the season opener and Senior Night. The Eagles played a dominant game, establishing the run game early on offense as the defense controlled the line of scrimmage with the help of Eamon Smalls, Theo Washington, and Alvin Wilson. The Eagles defense set the tone in the first drive of the game, forcing the Trojans to go threeand-out. Beaufort High’s offense came out running the ball with Jaylin Houseal to set up quarterback Tyler Haley for a 30-yard run for the first touchdown early in the first quarter. The defense came back with the same intensity, as Colton Phares had an interception on the Trojans’ second offensive drive of the game to set up the Eagles offense with great field position. The offense rumbled down the field to get a 2-yard touchdown run from Houseal and followed another quick three-and-out with a 56-yard bomb from Haley to Marcus Goodwater to make the score 20-0.

BA pulls away from HHP with big 3rd quarter LowcoSports.com Beaufort Academy scored 28 points in the third quarter to pull away for a 49-28 home win over Hilton Head Prep on Friday. The Dolphins kept it close in the first half and trailed just 14-7 at halftime before BA’s powerful ground game got on track in the second half. Ja’Sean Lawson rushed for 114 yards and three touchdowns on 15 carries, and Carlos Jones added 140 yards and two TDs on just nine carries to power the Eagles to a 2-0 start in region play. Jaxen Porter added 36 yards and a touchdown, and Elijah Fess had a big night on both sides of the ball, rushing for a 58-yard TD and collecting four tackles, a sack, and a fumble recovery on defense. Braydon Dineen also played well on both sides for BA, going 5-for-7 for 54 yards and adding five tackles, and Devonte Green made six tackles. Tommy Stauffer rushed for 101 yards on six carries and caught a touchdown pass for HHP, and Carson King scored a pair of touchdowns. Harrison Green was 8-for-16 for 142 yards and a TD, and Gunnar Askeland had an 80yard kickoff return TD for the Dolphins. Stauffer (13 tackles) and King (10 tackles) led the defensive effort for HHP. BA (4-2, 2-0) hosts Thomas Sumter for a non-region game Friday, while HHP (1-31, 0-1) hosts Orangeburg Prep for a region contest.

Rebels fend off John Paul II

The Beaufort High School defense gang-tackles the ball carrier from James Island on Friday during their 48-6 win over the Trojans at Beaufort. The Trojans could not get anything going on offense and couldn’t hold the defensive line. Washington had a sack to force another three-and-out, and Jeremiah Simmons blocked the punt to set up the Eagles at the 5-yard line. Amariee Morris punched it in from the 4 to make the score 27-0 at the end of the first quarter. The offense get the ball back and pummeled the Trojans de-

fense, ending with a 1-yard sneak form Haley before James Island put together its first sustained drive of the night to get on the board with a field goal before halftime. James Island’s defense began the third quarter with an interception to get the offense on the field, but the Trojans couldn’t convert and were stopped again. The Eagles marched down the

field again with Houseal rumbling for a 7-yard TD to make the score 41-3 at the end of third quarter. The Trojans were able to get down the field and kick another field goal before Houseal added an 11-yard touchdown run to cap the scoring. Now the Eagles (1-0) will prepare to travel to May River in a marquee match of expected Region 7-4A favorites.

LowcoSports.com Thomas Heyward Academy got another tough test on the road but closed out a 2818 victory at John Paul II for the Rebels’ fifth straight win. The Rebels weren’t at full strength, with multi-faceted standout Bruzza Pusha sidelined and star running back JR Patterson limited, and the Golden Warriors were able to take advantage to keep this one close throughout. The defenses traded punches early before THA’s Jeremy Clemmer picked off a pass over the middle and raced up the left sideline to open the scoring. The Rebels made it 14-0 when Brandon Howard took a short pass from Peyton Bennett and turned it into a long touchdown. JPII didn’t go quietly, though, putting together a sustained drive capped by a Jackson Ogden touchdown run to get with 14-7 at halftime. Jeremiah Young and Austin McIntosh each had

EDUCATION

District revises meal distribution schedule during hybrid instruction From staff reports The Beaufort County School District has revised the free meal distribution schedule for all district students now that many students have resumed face-toface instruction on hybrid schedules. All district students – virtual learners as well as those resuming face-to-face instruction – will still be able to get free meals, and family income will not be a factor. Since COVID-19 forced a statewide school shutdown last March, the district and Sodexo, its food services contractor, have distributed free meals using a combination of school pick-up points and school bus routes scattered across the county. Since then, 892,090 meals have been provided to Beaufort County children. As of Monday, bus route

meal distribution has ceased as buses are needed to transport hybrid students to school. Buses are running at a 60 percent student capacity in order to accommodate physical distancing recommendations as per DHEC. As a result, the fleet will be fully utilized. Hybrid students will receive meals during the two days of the week they are attending school and will be provided meals for the remaining days of the week as well. Virtual students will also be provided a weekly allotment of food. Schools will contact families with food distribution information. About the food program The U.S. Department of Agriculture is funding the continuation of the summer program which supplies free meals to any child under age

18 and anyone under age 21 with a disability Meals will be provided by Sodexo, the school district’s food service contractor. To file a complaint of discrimination, complete the USDA Program Discrimination Complaint Form (AD3027) at http://www.ascr. usda.gov/complaint_filing_ cust.html and at any USDA office, or write a letter addressed to USDA and provide in the letter all of the information requested in the form.

Painful lessons learned as important as the money

t’s Saturday — early, overcast, windy and much cooler. This morning, with more than a hint of fall in the air, I have the Wall Street Journal (Sept. 18, 2020) which has published its annual college rankings. Some years ago the WSJ began to publish its rankings pushing those of Princeton and U.S. News and World Report into second place, third place, ignominy. I must admit I was drawn to these rankings because I wanted to see the value of my college degree and those of my wife and my son. In its current, 2021 listing Harvard, MIT, Yale, Stanford and Brown lead a list of 400 ranked colleges. The WSJ always publishes its criteria and its publishers always talk about “outcomes” that reflect the salaries earned by graduates right out of college. They always talk about the cost of the degree, debt assumed by the student

didn’t get those 50 returns. “Students are not directed or pushed to participate,” Dorian said. So I swallowed my resentment and tamped down my anger. One thing they taught us at The Citadel is the notion that disappointment and setback are part of life. Whatever the humiliation one must bounce back avoiding chronic resentment and victimization. But, of course, I wondered why more cadets didn’t respond to the survey? Then I remembered that a big part of the rankings are “academic resources” which means endowments. Maybe those cadets compared the Citadel’s endowment ($314.4 million) with Princeton’s ($25.9 billion) and wondered whether the questionnaire was worth their time.

Now what?

highlighting daily life observations

when we remember that neither of us have a green thumb nor have watered a plant in forever. She starts clanging around in the kitchen. Where is your frying plan? She wants

to make breakfast. Then she proceeds to make eggs, bacon, and some fresh blueberry muffins on the side. My normal bowl of cereal seemed so sad next to the bagels, cream cheese, and lox that she served. Her meal was incredible. And my spouse’s Jimmy Dean’s sausage frozen package thrown in the microwave was sad looking next to her spread. Afterward, as she was cleaning up, we both commented on how delicious the breakfast was and how nice it was for her to clean up

afterward too. A few days of her cooking was a bit overwhelming. We had deli sandwiches and homemade bowls of soup for lunch. Everything was delicious. She made some of those one-pan meals too like Beef Stew, chicken pot pies, and chicken casseroles. She cut up vegetables for nice salads and put out fresh bread with fresh butter. Then we had a bit of deja vu. There was a time when we did make these kinds of meals. Both our mothers provided us with some decent

recipes, but after a while our lives got busy and we started to do more and more take out. Then we digressed to frozen TV dinners. They really were not for our taste buds, just to put something on our stomachs. So now we are back to cooking. There are numerous recipes that can be put together in moments and we can sit down and enjoy dinner again. Even those premade Blue Apron meals are better than some of the junk we were eating. Our unwelcome visitor was wonderful after all, and

she was not in the way at all. She reminded us to take the few minutes to shop for food and prepare it. She has even encouraged us to take those side trips to the Farmers’ Market on the weekends. The food tastes so much better and she turned out to be the best welcome visitor ever.

every conflict with the U.S.? Perhaps we now understand why he has been so unrelenting about NOT releasing his tax returns. Most all Americans pay far more in taxes than he does: Is he (a) a tax cheat, (b) a business failure, (c) a brilliant con-man, (d) a tax criminal, or (e) all of the above? The New York district attorney is very interested in answers to those questions, even if his unwavering “base” is not. If you still need one, here is a quick and disturbing litany that proves DJT is unfit to be President: more than seven million Americans infected with Covid-19, which now includes POTUS and FLOTUS, and more than 210,000 deaths, mostly

due to POTUS’s egregious failures to address the pandemic with a meaningful “plan,” while he constantly disparages simple steps for protecting ourselves such as wearing a mask; an economy in shambles with millions of Americans out of work, perhaps many permanently so, and millions of others with work hours reduced to less than a living wage; begging the Supreme Court to destroy medical insurance for millions of low- and middle-income Americans in the midst of the deadliest disaster in 100 years; destruction of America’s world-wide prestige, purging the Supreme Court’s integrity, destroying the dignity of the Presidency; politicizing our armed-forces and expressing shameless disdain for and crass insults aimed at our military; reducing the integrity of the Justice Department, which has brought great distrust of our country’s most important institutions; espousing naked racism and endorsing white-supremacy, asking far-

right heavily-armed “militias” to “stand by.” What do we think that means? Unlike King Midas, about everything that “King Trump” touches turns into the exuded reprocessed food grazed on by horses. But, you know what, his “base” does not care about the truth of any of this sad and depressing litany. Why? FAITH. Period. Faith is a strange human emotional, but not intellectual, phenomenon, often exhibited within a religion versus science arena. Faith, in its simplest form, is based on a rejection of rationality and logic. It is a strongly held emotionally-based belief system that exists even when conflicting with the laws of physics and natural science. The faithful believer has no problem believing in preternatural miracles, even when natural laws contend (and largely have proven) such is impossible. The second century theologian Origen was instrumental in formulating the axiom of unchallenged

church authority. He noted that “…As this matter of faith is so much talked of, I have to reply that we accept it as useful for the multitude, and that we admittedly teach those who cannot abandon everything and pursue a study of rational argument to believe without thinking out their reasons.” The beauty of faith is that is does not rely on rational or logical interpretations of empirical observations; its keystone rests only on the ability of the faithful to BELIEVE. Faith can be irrational or illogical insofar as what the faithful believe contradicts the rules of nature, physics, biology and astronomy. In the world of science such beliefs are otherwise characterized as magical thinking, belief in the supernatural or the paranormal. The downside of faith is that too often it is a bar to comprehending the truth of a perceived reality. When truth (with a capital T) collides with faith (with a capital F), faith is almost always the winner, such is its power. It is

so with the faithful denizens of POTUS’s alternate universe. Faith uber alles. From my own life experiences, I simply think we must look to the common good as the keystone to a healthy democracy. What will promote the flourishing of all of our core values? Faith versus Fact will be on trial November 3. Onto which cosmic ledger shall your name be inscribed? The winner of this test will shape our precious republic for generations to come. I hope you have enjoyed reading this opinion piece. It shall be my last contribution on presidential politics for some time to come, if ever again.

n September, the Union Times announced it was closing its doors after 170 years, citing the economic effects of COVID-19. It’s a sad thing when newspapers like the Union Times close, but it’s no longer shocking. Newspapers have been plagued by declining circulation numbers and shrinking newsrooms for the past 15 years, and nearly a quarter have shuttered, according to a June report from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. With a pandemic added

— I did know that what I got on that highly regimented campus was different. As I got older I began to believe that the degree that I got was valuable. But more than the degree, or the income I got after I graduated, I began to believe that the rigorous, sometimes painful lessons I learned were as important as the money—the “return on investment.” And so when the WSJ decided it was not going to list The Citadel, or that different experience, I was disappointed and, yes, a little resentful that The Citadel had been deleted. I called my 1967 classmate, John Sams, who recently served a term as Interim President at the Military College. John called John Dorian, Director of Communications, who said that one component of the ranking involves a survey of students as to their views of their experience.

he make-believe universe that POTUS and his followers inhabit should have exploded long ago. But, now only weeks away from Judgment Day, it remains as alive as ever. Proof positive can be found in the bullying slugfest instigated and maintained by POTUS that masqueraded as a presidential “debate.” It was anything but presidential and more akin to a WWE pitched battle, an assault and defense, than a “debate;” a wasted 90-minute exhibition of DJT’S rage-fueled, unhinged frenzy wrapped in insecurity. A recent stunning disclosure is that DJT, a self-described billionaire, doesn’t pay Federal taxes (10 of last 15 years, and a pittance of $750 each in 2016 and 2017). He is up to his eyeballs in gigantic crushing personal debt, but we don’t know to whom he reportedly owes more than $400 million.

Wofford (No. 208) beat out the University of South Carolina (No. 289); USC-Columbia finishing just behind Moravian College. Moravian College? Moravian College is a small liberal arts college in Bethlehem, Pa. Many of the 2,000 students who attend this school go into nursing, business and psychology. When they graduate they make about $40,000 a year. College of Charleston was not given an individual number but listed in the 500 plus category. Anderson and SCAD were in the 600 plus category; but there was no ranking for USC-Beaufort, Coastal Carolina or The Citadel. Some of you may know that I graduated from the Citadel in 1967 and for many years wondered about the education that I got at South Carolina’s Military College

So how did we (in South Carolina) do in the WSJ rankings? Furman University finished highest (No. 135) edging out Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia. Clemson was next at No. 189 — one notch below St Lawrence University (my son’s school) and — just above Gustavus Adolphus College in St. Peter, Minnesota. Gustavus Adolphus College? Gustavus Adolphus is named for, you got it, Gustavus Adolphus who “laid the foundation for the modern Swedish State.” Its’ students still honor their Swedish/

to the mix, it’s likely many other small-town papers will soon follow suit. Researchers have a name for communities where daily newspapers have disappeared – news deserts. UNC’s report says 200 coun-

ties in the U.S. don’t have a local newspaper, and that number is climbing faster than digital news sites. These communities might have access to national and world news thanks to the internet, but when it comes to what happened at last week’s school board meeting or how county council voted or whether their tax dollars are being spent responsibly,

citizens are often left in the dark. That’s a problem because local news drives civic engagement. It also gives local citizens information about local meetings and events. It also gives people a voice in how they’re governed and shines a light on injustice. News deserts aren’t just less informed – they’re also vulnerable to the damage that can be done by decision-makers with unchecked power. And the voids journalists leave when their papers die create frightening oppor-

tunities for rumors or even deliberate disinformation campaigns to thrive. Since COVID, I’ve seen my own community come together to support local businesses hit hard by the shutdown. One Facebook group dedicated to keeping Columbia restaurants afloat topped 10,000 members, and there have been coordinated efforts to spend money with the businesses that need it most. Now, apply that mindset to local news because just like the shops and restaurants

that line Main Street, your newspaper is integral to the fabric of your community. It is a catalyst for change and a champion for transparency and truth – and there’s a lot at stake if it disappears. In the end, news deserts aren’t good for local communities. So, subscribe if you don’t already. America needs journalists, but journalists need you, too.

Newspapers are worthy of your attention

ust a reminder, National Newspaper Week is Oct. 4-10. National Cheeseburger Day was a recent event, and it prompted me to go out and get a cheeseburger. Newspapers are far more important to recognize, and they aren’t as fattening. Let me prompt you to please take time to think about what your local newspaper means to your community and your family, and urge you to continue your support. Whether in print or online, newspapers keep you informed about what is happening on so many fronts: school news, government actions, crime reports, sports, who died and who got married, and election news. The list goes on. Newspapers also stand up for the rights of citizens to know how their elected officials – be they town

councils or school boards – are planning to spend public money. Want examples of how important newspaper reporting is? Here are some stories that were recognized in last year’s S.C. Press Association News Contest: – A coastal weekly investigation found that many court cases in Atlantic Beach were dismissed because police didn’t show up to testify. – A Lowcountry daily reporter told residents about a 60-foot trash pile at a rural recycling center. Within a month of his reporting on this public health and safety

issue, the EPA began emergency cleanup. – An Upstate daily newspaper’s investigation into civil asset forfeiture in South Carolina uncovered that police are making millions by seizing assets, often without ever filing charges against the person whose assets are taken. – A report called “Above the Law,” exposed how sheriffs across South Carolina lined their pockets on the public’s dime, tried to silence whistle blowers and bullied other public officials who questioned their behavior. – The Island News informed readers that that Beaufort County’s potential approval of a resort at Bay Point was based on the advice of an outside, non-elected ecotourism group, not accountable to voters, that wasn’t what it claimed to be. These are just a few examples of important stories

that newspapers broke. They show the kind of reporting found only in newspapers and looking out for the public’s good.

Please continue to support your local paper by subscribing and encourage your friends and family to do so, too.
