Trump wasted no time cutting livesaving funding like this when he came into office at the start of the year. You were quick to make sure everyone saw the impact on NC universities.

After months with no movement on a state budget, NC Republicans showed they can move quickly when it’s for Trump instead of for you. Rep. Reives’ straight-talk was exactly what people want to see from their leaders. Thanks for sharing it with so many.

Following Trump’s lead, Michael Whatley has repeatedly claimed in interviews that groceries, gas, and housing have all become more affordable. How out of touch he is might be funny if he wasn’t running to be the next NC Senator. #ncpol

Republicans redrew a North Carolina district held by a GOP incumbent. A war veteran Democrat is looking to take advantage.
