U.S. attorney Lin Wood has decided to run for chairman of the South Carolina Republican Party after moving from Georgia to South Carolina.
In an email late Sunday (March 28), Lin Wood, 68, confirmed he will seek to defeat incumbent South Carolina Republican Party Chairman Drew McKissick, according to The Hill.
“One of the compelling reasons I have decided to run for South Carolina (Republican) Party chairman is that it is Time for the party leadership to realize and value the time for amazing patriots to step up and get involved in the party, rather than act to exclude them.” Linwood said in an email. He cited a controversy over control by a local Republican group in Horry County.
“I don’t like government corruption. Check my record. I don’t like rule-breakers because I believe in the rule of law. Check my record. I hate shady behind-the-scenes deals because I support shining light into the darkness. View my record. I want to help my new neighbors in South Carolina give the Republican Party back to the people. The people have all the power, not the elite cabal of the old leadership. The people of the South Carolina Republican Party will bring integrity back to this party and government. I believe in ‘we the people’. It will be my privilege to work for the people as they pursue their goals.” Linwood said.
Linwood, who has been a lawyer by profession for more than 40 years, has previously criticized the blocking of free speech in the United States. He fears that if free speech is denied, the right to go to church is denied, and after First Amendment rights are denied, the Second Amendment rights, then the right to go through the legal process will be denied as well.
Linwood is a conservative American lawyer. Publicly, he has taken on many high-profile cases, such as serving as the attorney for Richard Jewell, the security guard falsely accused in the Centennial Olympic Park bombing, and representing Nicholas Sandmann, a 17-year-old high school student who sued the Washington Post for defamation and ultimately obtained a high out-of-court settlement.
