Businessman Michael B. Moore is seeking the Democratic nomination to oppose MAGA Republican Nancy Mace in the 1st CD in South Carolina.Discover how Moore is carrying the family legacy in South Carolina, seeking to follow in the footsteps of his pioneering great-great-grandfather in Congress 150 years ago.In 2020, Republican Rep. Nancy Mace of South Carolina's First Congressional District, edged out Democratic incumbent Rep. Joe Cunningham…who had been the first Democrat to flip a House seat in South Carolina in 30 years. Mace won by just 5,400 votes, or one percent.Then, two years ago, following redistricting, Mace won reelection by 14 percent.Since then, Mace was critical of Trump following the Jan. 6, 2021 MAGA attack on the U.S. Capitol, but she's endorsed Trump – despite the many criminal charges against him and his conviction for sexually abusing writer E. Jean Carroll in the 1990s.Now, Moore, a forward-thinking business executive, is one of two Democrats running in the June 11 SC primary for the chance to oppose Mace in November. As he focuses on carrying the family legacy, his opponent in the primary is attorney Mac Deford, whose interview on this podcast is now streaming.We're pleased to have Moore with us on the Lean to the Left podcast, but before we get to that, please visit podcast.leantotheleft.net, where you'll find thumbnails and links to all of our episodes. You can subscribe there too. And don't forget to give us a rating wherever you listen. Five stars would be super cool. Here are some questions we addressed with Moore, who is carrying the family legacy in SC:Q. Michael, you come from a long line of pioneering public servants, including your great-great-grandfather, Civil War hero and Reconstruction Era Congressman Robert Smalls. In 1862, Smalls commandeered a Confederate ship in Charleston harbor, carrying his family and 15 other enslaved people to freedom. He went on to become one of the first African Americans to serve in Congress, and now you're seeking the same House seat held by your great-great-grandfather almost 150 years ago. That's quite a legacy, Michael. But can you give us a quick summary of your background and why it qualifies you to serve in Congress?Q. Late last month a federal court ruled that the South Carolina elections will be held under a map already deemed unconstitutional and discriminatory against Black voters by the same three-judge panel that found that the state used race as a proxy for partisan affiliation, a violation of the 14th amendment to the Constitution. Your thoughts about that.Q. What are your thoughts about Congresswoman Mace supporting Trump after criticizing him for the Jan. 6 insurrection?Q. What are your top priorities for Congressional action in the next two years?Q. Your district, District 1, is dependent on tourism, sensitive to climate issues, in need of affordable housing. It's comprised of varied communities with different needs. If elected, how will you deal with those issues and meet those needs?Q. How will you address the challenges of healthcare accessibility and affordability?Q. How do you plan to engage with and represent underrepresented or marginalized groups in our district? Q. Trump and the Republicans are talking about Social Security and Medicare cuts. Your thoughts? Q. Where do you stand on the issue of reproductive rights? Q. What about immigration?Q. Many voters are frustrated by the inability of Congress to pass legislation in recent years. Some members, including numerous Republicans, are leaving Congress because of their frustration. Why do you believe it will be any different for you?Q. Why did you decide to take on this challenge? South Carolina isn't exactly Democrat friendly! And why are you the best candidate to take on Congresswoman Mace? Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-lean-to-the-left-podcast--4719048/support.

Okay BF community, we have a ridiculous treat for you today (and us as well)! As you all know, AJ has her list of top 5 favorite historical figures, one of which is Robert Smalls. We spoke about this legendary life in a previous episode (Regulators, Mount Up! We're Stealing A Boat) and received amazing responses from you! One of those responses came in the form of (*deep breath*) educator, thought leader, legacy keeper, CEO, father, husband, and great-great grandson of Robert Smalls: Michael Boulware Moore! And he chose to share his story on the show. Excuse us while we do a wildly choreographed dance break of joy. During this special guest-featured episode, the dynamic duo interview Mr. Michael B. Moore on the connective tissue that is his life and the legacy of his great-great grandfather, Congressman Smalls. We'll get into - as AJ puts it - “my man Rob's” existence outside of the history books too. Did he laugh often? Did he enjoy Sunday afternoons on the porch with a glass of iced tea? What section of the paper did he read first? We'll also hear how the legacy of Robert Smalls continues in Mr. Moore and what it's like to carry the beauty and weight of it all throughout fatherhood. This is not an episode to miss!
Clee Laster has been an incredibly productive musician in 2022…Clee, lead singer of TRB fan-favorites, Simplified, makes a second appearance on the podcast to update Chris Rhoad, BoatCast Mark, and Eammon the Cousin on his busy 2022 - including details about the upcoming 2022 Texafied Jamfest!!! Earlier this month, Clee put out an acoustic version of “Carolina Blue” with fellow Charlotte-based musician and good friend Cam (Of Good Nature). He and his Simplified brothers recently released “Fly Away” - an amazing jam that is perfect for spring/summer activities. The band is working on several more songs that will join this newest single on an upcoming EP. Check them out this summer at BoatYard Lake Norman, for a full-band show!He talks EarthAngel Wings - Volume 1, a compilation album to benefit Children's Hospital Colorado. His song “I Don't Care” features fellow TRB fave Steve Everett - and there are several more TRB alums on the album. Buy it here to support a great cause!Finally - and perhaps most exciting - Clee gives The BoatCast a deep dive into the history of Texafied - which TRB/SATS Boaters, the Conners, have put on with Simplified to support MD Anderson Cancer Center. The event will surely sell out. Clee likens Texafied to TRB on Land, given it's immersive experience. He looks forward to hanging with his Texafied “Family” on Thursday for dinner and open jam. He warns that tickets sell out fast, but one way to secure them and support a great cause are to sponsor the event- and adds that sponsorship can start at $250 and can be creative (ie Michael B Moore is sponsoring the artists' green room drinks). Chris Rhoad hints that we will be featuring several of the artists, as well as The Conners, on upcoming podcasts.Clee Laster/Simplified/Texafied can be found at: Facebook:*Simplified: facebook.com/simplifiedmusic*Texafied JamFest: facebook.com/texafiedjamfest2018/YouTube:*Simplified: youtube.com/channel/UCBTmkWqCXkiY_cpvQIiSmogInstagram:*Simplified: https://instagram.com/simplifiedmusic?utm_medium=copy_link*Texafied JamFest:https://instagram.com/texafied_jamfest_?utm_medium=copy_linkWebsite:*Simplified: https://www.simplifiedmusic.com/*Texafied JamFest: https://www.texafiedjamfest.com/* Charity Album: https://earthangelcharities.comTexafied Spotify Playlist:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3HGn5yjsDISISSHbDLtzoa?si=4aJAL7RaRbiXsiiGYmrkxQThe BoatCast is proud to be named “Official Podcast of Texafied”.
