Look at this crowd, Representative Hudson! These are your constituents. #NC09

Since you won't hold a town hall, you were replaced by members of congress who WILL talk with the people.

Replacement seems to have worked beautifully!

Oregon Statewide Town Hall with Senator Wyden Event by People's Town Hall and Senator Ron Wyden on Tuesday, March 4 2025 with 2.5K people interested and 1.7K people going. 51 posts in the discussion.

Reminder that instead of attending Donald Trump's first address to Congress tonight I'll be hosting an open-to-all town hall on Facebook live at 6 PM PT. You don't need a Facebook account – or to be an Oregonian – to tune in. Look forward to seeing you all soon.

@schultefornc.com speaks the truth! "Eastern NC deserves better than Donald Trump, Elon Musk and Greg Murphy."

And that's why he's running- because NC deserves someone who will fight for those who fight for their country!

Patient dies in Mission emergency department bathroom after call for help goes unanswered β€’ Asheville Watchdog A patient in Mission Hospital’s emergency room died in the bathroom last week after calling for help but getting no immediate response. Hospital spokeswoman Nancy Lindell confirmed the incident to Asheville Watchdog on Thursday and said one employee has been fired and more action may be taken in an ongoing investigation. But several ER nurses […]

A patient died in a restroom in the lobby of Mission Hospital ER last week, when no rooms were available for them to be seen, and even after pulling the cord for assistance.

HCA has destroyed our Mission Hospital system here in #Asheville.

Depends on the dispatcher, (most drivers are not amazon employees), they work 3-4 days per week.

Flex drivers can work a few hrs per day and be with their family

Please don't judge. Not everyone CAN boycott. You never know what that person is doing to try and make things better for all... but for that person, it can be hurtful, and make them feel like they're not seen. Possibly making the emotionally baggage that comes with "difference" even harder.

I'm not defending amazon by any stretch.

But imagine you have a medical issue. #disability #ChronicIllness
You live alone . You need something same day. Maybe you didn't plan correctly, maybe you've been feeling awful.

Amazon is literally a lifetime. Especially same day delivery. (1/2)

It is really short-sighted and stupid to be gutting public health and outbreak surveillance capacity right now:
- H5N1 nationwide - uncontrolled
- TB in Kansas - largest U.S outbreak
- Measles in Texas - Expanding
- Seasonal flu - Worst in 15 years
- Pertussis - outbreaks in multiple states.

Wow! That's amazing! I shopped at Food Lion bc it was a NC based company and priced right.
