I’m beyond honored to serve the @NCDemParty as Chair for a second term. Thank you for the trust of the State Executive Committee and the folks across our party. I know the work ahead will be anything but easy. With your support, we can do it together. ⬇️ NCDP.org/chair

Congratulations to North Carolina Democrats Chair Anderson Clayton for earning re-election! I'm so proud that you're leading my home state Democratic Party and so excited for the work that we'll accomplish together over the next two years!

a new campaign slogan for people running against the dismantling of our government “I would absolutely love for them to break that. They’re breaking the wrong things.” Amber Hurt open.substack.com/pub/landfami...

now that the circuit court ruled against Griffen, if the supreme Court deadlocks, that ruling would be the official ruling. so no more urgency. they need it to be overturned by Griffen's pals on the appeals court. www.wral.com/story/nc-sup...

@abreezeclayton.bsky.social maybe people like my son whose vote is being challenged by judge Griffin should send a letter with a picture of their ID or passport by registered mail requiring a signature to each of these judges. then they could demand it be provided as evidence in the trial

1/ LET'S TALK ABOUT: Selfishness, the Prosperity Gospel, and the Sin of Empathy. The real problem with the idea of empathy "untethered from truth and reality" being a sin ... isn't the asinine bastardization of Friedman, nor is it the silly paranoid fear someone will be "forced" to show empathy.

Van Hollen: "Can you imagine FDR in the middle of WW2 saying to Churchill, 'you know, we're not going to continue to help you until you turn over half of your coal and mineral reserves.' That's not how you behave when you want to support a friend who's under attack by an authoritarian like Putin."

This is the energy we need.

Musk seems to think he uncovered massive fraud. In fact this is a well-known issue having to do with COBOL programing and the cost of inputting death data for people who died decades ago before records were digitized. oig.ssa.gov/assets/uploa...

The Washington Post refused to run this ad. Sure would be a shame if it went viral.

You know what you call a government that rounds up its political enemies? You call it a dictatorship.

The UK has a shadow cabinet - political positions within the party that isn’t in power - and so should we. Plus, we need weekly press briefings led by @petebuttigieg.bsky.social on the state of the union. Business-as-usual time is over.

Should of never been hired🙄💥

Roses are red Violets are blue

I think there is another, equally insidious, motivation at play. AI bros like Musk and Ellison want to replace human govt workers with AI while expectations are low.

I'm very tired of people here shitting on ideas that are aimed at raising/reinforcing public awareness/understanding of what is happening, with defeatist claims like "waste of time" "waste of money" "will never work." The only way to wake people up to what is happening is for people in power 1/2

Missouri's AG Andrew Bailey is suing Starbucks, arguing that its workforce is too "female" and "non-white" and as a result Missouri consumers “pay higher prices and wait longer for goods and services" because its workforce is "less qualified" This is a brazenly racist and sexist lawsuit.

This is just sheer brazen criminality by DOJ. Adams gets federal corruption charges dropped not because there isn’t overwhelming evidence, but because he agrees to help Homan round up migrants. And Homan says the charges will be refiled if Adams doesn’t “come through.”

A picture tells 1000 words

There is literally HIV being transmitted from mom to baby because of the illegal shutdown of US AID and now Trump’s State Department wants to spend 400 million dollars on Tesla cyber trucks. This is not about efficiency. It’s a smash and grab.

As @hcrichardson.bsky.social suggested, call out their lies! Please DO share on your other social media platforms and #Resist !

Always always always the real game, as I have said. They want the data, as dangerous as this will inevitably be. They don’t care, these ceaseless borgs. trib.al/ctRDVKs

Interesting: the State Department’s procurement forecast detailing a $400 million order for "armored Tesla" has now been edited to "armored electric vehicles." The document shows the edit was made tonight at 9:12 p.m. -- after it was highlighted in reports

Larry Ellison wants an Oracle AI to have access to all our data and use it to tell us all how to live, work, manage our properties, etc. www.theregister.com/2025/02/12/l...

This is absolutely insane. Musk’s DOGE crew just straight up *took* $80 million from an NYC bank account!

just another post about how Trump isn't reducing prices like he promised his voters. open.substack.com/pub/wonkette...

Never forget that Trump was the culmination of 40 years of stagnant wages, widening inequality, corruption, dog-whistle politics, and economic gains for the rich. If we fail to address this, we should expect future Trumps as far as the eye can see.

“According to [the Congressional Budget Office], in order to do a 10-year extension of just the expiring tax cuts is over $4.7 trillion,” Smith told reporters, referring to the 2017 Trump tax law. Hard to do this and find $175 billion for mass deportations. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

The trump administration has been hit with more restraining orders than Matt Gaetz at a skating rink. USAID Treasury OPM NIH Impoundment Fork in the Road FBI list of names Trans inmate transfer Birthright citizenship That’s off the top of my head. I’m sure I’m missing some.

every single Republican politician, from city council to US Congress, should now be asked why they support Defunding Curing Cancer

NO ONE voted to cut cancer research.
