Happy thanksgiving! 🦃🍁🍂 I hope your day is peaceful and your conversations inspiring and uplifting. However, if you’re in the unfortunate situation of having to break bread with MAGAs maybe find some friends to play along.

North Hills Christian School in Salisbury, NC got nearly $1 million in taxpayer voucher funds this school year. The school charges students with learning disabilities up to $5000 more than their nondisabled peers. And GOP legislators call this "universal school choice"?? #nced #ncpol

Thank you, Gov. Cooper, for your veto of Senate Bill 382 — a proposal that fails to advance the rebuilding of Western NC, limits future response to disasters, and disrupts the function of state government. #ncpol #ncga #ncgov

Crockett: The fact that we have Americans that are saying, wait a minute, are you saying that tariffs are going to negatively impact me? It's kind of like that wall that we are still waiting on Mexico to build, that they are going to pay for. No, we are going to pay for it.

NC Dems not support black women for office. Just putting them on the ballot is not enough. We have had very good candidates who were beaten by really bad Republicans. Imagine NC with Yvonne, Cheri, and Jessica-without Robinson, Budd, or Bolieck? Are we on the same team? #NCPOL

North Carolina's gerrymandered maps changed the nation. The three seats stolen from Democrats (mine included) cost Democrats control of the US House of Representatives. Without a brutal mid-census NC GOP gerrymander Hakeem Jeffries would be the next Speaker in a 218-217 House.

remember when the entire U.S. tech press spent 20 straight years propping up Elon Musk's supergenius engineer mythology and if you pointed out he was an opportunistic fraud they'd all look at you like you'd grown an extra head? good times

The Tariff Act of 1930 was designed for protectionist trade. It imposed high tariffs on over 20,000 imported goods which led to retaliatory tariffs from other countries. Why am I telling you this? In case you're ever asked "what were the key contributors to the Great Depression?" The mo' you know

Gov. Cooper has vetoed SB 382 but the #NCGA is expected to to try and override it next week. Several House Republicans including Rep. Gillespie, Rep. Clampitt, and Rep. Pless voted AGAINST SB 382 because it fails to provide real disaster relief. ⁠ Urge your rep to sustain the veto 💥 demnc.co/sb382

Good. It’s horrific how other platforms abused their reach to strangle local, independent, and national outlets alike. I WANT to see news and actual vetted work and I WANT journalists to get rewarded for it. Because I want to live in a thinking human world over some AI generated slop dystopia

For Pete's sake, Justice Berger is allowed to hear a case involving his father. These NCGOPers are really funny about how they identify a conflict of interest. #ncpol Just look at the sleazy grin on Griffin's face:

These 3 #NorthCarolina Republicans voted “No” on this sham of a bill. Please contact them before Monday via email or phone, asking/demanding they continue to side with the people and vote AGAINST overriding Cooper’s veto 🙏 #ncpol

80% of Americans & 65% of Republicans reject a national abortion ban. Project 2025 supports it anyway. If Republicans regain power, they will push for a ban. We can’t let "The Handmaid's Tale" become reality. Support civil rights & democratic freedoms. https://bit.ly/3ZbMv5l

What is the purpose of #NorthCarolina voter ID law? It's very clear. The purpose has nothing to do with voter fraud; it is to disenfranchise Democrats and elect more Republicans. #NCpol @abreezeclayton.bsky.social @marcelias.bsky.social @chriscooperwcu.bsky.social @oldnorthstpolitics.bsky.social
