NC Court of Appeals gives over 60,000 challenged voters 15 days to prove eligibility
The majority wrote that, even though they have the authority to completely throw out the contested ballots, they decided to instead mandate a cure period for most of the challenged voters.

@schumer.senate.gov If you vote for cloture you are a stain on this country’s history that will never go away. You are willingly passing power to a tyrant in waiting, and you are a disgrace to every oath of office any senator has ever sworn. Your legacy will be one of cowardice and contempt.

At #NICAR25 the CFPB’s Chief Technologist @erie.bsky.social says the agency is still here and can only be ended by an act of Congress, despite her team being recently fired. The DOGE team has “god mode” access to all CFPB complaint data. “It's a 5 alarm fire for me that they have this data.”

called and left a voicemail! I modified the script a bit to make my party affiliation ambiguous bc I’m not really comfortable posing as a republican
if your congressperson's GOP, try the script below. it’s timed to 45 seconds with bail out points. you’ll get an intern. be polite.
different issues motivate these fools, but they can be manipulated. at the very least, it can’t hurt to try. we need you to try.

![Hi, I'm [your name] one of ________________'s constituents.
needs to vote no on HB 28— the sports ban on trans athletes. It's this kind of nonsense that nearly lost us the House. Banning trans people from wherever doesn't do a thing to bring down the price of eggs.
[you can stop here at 0:15 if you want to bail out]
And focusing on stuff like this makes us look like freaks. I thought we were going to help the working class? Fix the economy? Going after like 20 people across the country doesn't do any of that. Most folks don't even meet one of these people in their whole lives. Stuff like this just makes people hate us. Who cares?
[you can stop here at 0:30 if you want to bail out]
Tell _________________ to vote No on HB 28. Let's be the adults in the room and focus on business and things that matter, not this
culture war nonsense. Thank you.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:2lzahebnas6od6j6jfydwst7/bafkreibm6utjzu7ptlv5mjouxyq2irzyzvxtquxm77ucvhsupsof2xz62a@jpeg)

In the very first State of the Union address, given #OTD in 1790, POTUS George Washington told Congress it must encourage "science and literature" (meaning both the sciences and the humanities), given that "knowledge is in every country the surest basis of public happiness." Yes.
