Charleston, South Carolina’s government has shown itself to be no friend of liberty minded principles or individual freedoms over the past couple of years. They have done all they can to destroy businesses through shut downs, mask mandates with fines, closing city hall, etc. They also allowed a massive riot to break out which did millions in damage, dropped the charges brought against the VERY FEW people who were even charged, and proceeded to implement an “equity inclusion and racial conciliation commission” filled with far left leaders which brought forward a report laced with Critical Race Theory, the 1619 project, and even demands of reparations. This report was based on the Avery Disparities Report from College of Charleston, which is stuffed with as much woke insanity, cherry picked data, and half-truths as one would expect.
Even after their initial report was revoked by the City Council at the same meeting where a mask mandate was voted down, Mayor John Tecklenburg played the back-room games he seems to love so much and has reinstituted it under a different name. This is one of the issues that will be voted on for the 2nd time at the council meeting on Tuesday, January 11th at 5pm. They already voted it through once, at the last council meeting. We reported on that, at the time.
We have also covered the Equity, Inclusion & Racial Conciliation Commission at length, you can start here:
A mask mandate will also be discussed on Tuesday. For these reasons, among others, many in the city were astonished to read, in the agenda released on the 8th, that a vaccine passport would be required to attend, or take part in the meeting. There can be no doubt that this move was a specific attempt to silence a growing majority in Charleston, SC because of the large crossover regarding people who do not buy into the woke-left agenda regarding CRT and vaccine mandates. This unilateral decision by the city to disenfranchise an entire subset of the population from taking part in their own governance is beginning to look and feel eerily familiar to many who are students of history or refugees from totalitarian states, themselves.
What are we to do?
We, at The Overton Group, have had no shortage of showdowns with the government of Charleston, SC. Time and time again we have pushed back against their insidious and absurd overreach, especially over that past two years as things began to heat up all over the nation. You can catch up on some of those…incidents…below
Now, it is time to do this again. We have to show the mayor and city council (which includes 2 new members who will also be sworn in on Tuesday) that we aren’t kidding when we say we are against these things, in no uncertain terms. The line in the sand has been drawn, and Charleston’s government seems to step over it as often as they can, either out of a sense of spite for conservatives and liberty minded individuals, or simply as a show of force over their citizens. Perhaps it’s a little bit of both…
Regardless of the reasoning for their absurd and overbearing actions, it most certainly cannot be allowed to stand unopposed. With that being said, a large contingent of grassroots groups from multiple areas in the lowcountry and beyond will be at city hall on Tuesday, January 11th at 5pm to have our voices heard. Whether our voices are heard during the participation time allotted by the City inside the council meeting itself, or whether our voices are heard from outside through bullhorns and microphones, well, that choice is not ours to make.
The ball is in the city government’s court, and we will see what the next play they decide to make is. I highly encourage you all to join us if it is at all possible for you to do so. If you cannot, we will be live streaming from my facebook profile, and putting videos up on The Overton Report’s Rumble page. We have done this before, and we always knew the fight would not be a “one-and-done” scenario. So, we will stand again, and hopefully we will have YOU by our sides as we do just that!
STAY INFORMED ON THIS AND OTHER MATTERS WHICH WILL BE DEVELOPING AS WE CONTINUE! THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!!

Corey, there is no scientific justification for vax mandate, passport. The data is clear that vax does not prevent, that the vaxxed transmit, and carry higher viral load than unvaxxed. Let’s take this to the mattress.
What time? I have to work daytime hours, but I can be there later!
