The #NCGOP is looking to disenfranchise voters anyway they can. Refusing to distribute voter registration forms is particularly petty and probably illegal. #NCpol

If you're looking for someone reliable to follow regarding gas prices (because we can't trust sources from the current regime), check out @gasbuddyguy.bsky.social. He's a petroleum analyst who forecasts prices, and has been for 20 years.

If you’re roughly my age, it’s wild to reflect on the optimism for the future Americans felt when Obama was elected β€” young Americans spontaneously took to the streets to celebrate! β€” and contrast with what we face today. The falloff over the past 18 years is hard to process.

This is not trueβ€”driver’s licenses aren’t acceptable under the SAVE Act without additional proof of citizenship. The fact that they keep doing this sleight of hand should make clear that the SAVE Act is not something that β€œevery American gets”

Don't give in to SAVE Act Extortion from Trump Stand up Democracy and don't give in to Trump's extortion to not sign legislation until the SAVE Act is passed. The SAVE Act in its current form is a voter suppression bill with several pieces that amount to a poll tax or put barriers in place for legitimate voters. How about you impeach him instead for this unnecessary war and raping children?

Got married on a gazebo on the beach IRL and can confirm there's a tiny dude with a fully unbuttoned shirt in the far, far background of our wedding video, wearing one of those hardhats that holds 2 beer cans, with the straws hanging down to his face.

How We Actually Pay for War and Billionaire Tax Cuts
How We Actually Pay for War and Billionaire Tax Cuts Trump is launching us into what could be another costly and deadly forever war.Meanwhile, he and Republicans are making

At more than $5 billion and counting, the cost of Operation Epic Fury so far could cover SNAP benefits for more than 2 million Americans.

But instead of feeding hungry people at home, we're cutting food stamps in order to lower taxes for the rich and boost military spending to record levels.

Republican Sen. Thom Tillis will not seek reelection next year after Trump attacks Tillis was one of only two Senate Republicans, along with Rand Paul, Ky., who voted against a motion to start debate on Republicans' massive tax and spending bill.

He's not running for re-election. The NC primaries are today, so after tonight we should know who the Democratic & Republican candidates for his seat will be in November. Dem is expected to be very popular former Governor Roy Cooper. GOP is expected to be Michael Whatley, former RNC chair.
