@demmenofnc.bsky.social
We aim to encourage men to join the Democratic Party to help Democrats win elections and make North Carolina and our nation a place of respect, dignity, and opportunity for everyone.
Trump is tearing down key economic engines of North Carolina's Research Triangle.

To rein in government spending? No, his budget busting "Big Beautiful Bill" will explode the federal deficit.

Republicans in the US Senate took the Big Ugly Bill passed by Republicans in the US House. And then they made it worse.

Former Republican Steve Schmidt asks good questions, makes good points:

How will the Iran war end?

The American military is powerful, but led by imbeciles starting with Trump, but including Hegseth.

They are as unfit as two people can possibly be to lead this nation into conflict.

"This has been a bad week for the Army for anyone who cares about us being a neutral institution," one commander at Fort Bragg said on the condition of anonymity to avoid retaliation. "This was shameful... I hope maybe we can learn from it long term."

Trump's authoritarian ambition will take what we let him. That's why it is critical that we stand up, speak out, and protect our American constitutional rights. Turn out today to a "No Kings" rally. There are more than 50 of them across North Carolina. www.nokings.org

Like dictators in China, Russia and North Korea, Trump is demanding a military parade (cost to taxpayers: $45M) in Washington, DC... on Saturday (Trump's birthday)... while he tries to politicize the military, the FBI, the Justice Department, the IRS, and US spy agencies.

Follow-up:

Trump, as expected, has officially said screw you to North Carollina. @allinwithchris.bsky.social

Also: The Big BS Bill would make FEMA a cabinet- level agency, overseen by the Exec Branch

Trump/DOGE have already cut FEMA staffing by 30%, compromising future response efforts. #ncpol

It went from terrible to worse.

That's $2.4 TRILLION with a T added each year to the nation's debt if the US Senate passes Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill". Tax cuts for the wealthy that our children will pay for in higher interest rates on home mortgages, monthly car payments and student loans. #ncpol

"I, and I alone in FEMA, speak for FEMA. I'm here to carry out the president's intent for FEMA." said David Richardson when he took office in May.

On Monday (day 2 of 🌀 season), Richardson told FEMA staff he did not know there was a hurricane season which runs June to Dec.

Great column by NC state Senator Terence Everett (D-Wake Forest) on the cost to of Republican tax cuts & the GOP's refusal to invest in NC's infrastructure.

Who will pay for the roads as the GOP slashes income tax rates to nothing? Working families who cannot work from home.

Remember when Trump promised he would not cut healthcare for seniors?

Well Medicare... is... healthcare... for seniors.

What is Trump's Republican Congress up to while we were in bed?

Ask Republican Congresswoman Virginia Foxx from North Carolina. She chairs the House Rules Committee that is working furiously to cut healthcare, rural hospitals and taxes that overwhelmingly benefit the rich.

TONIGHT @ 1AM - If Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill" for billionaires was half-way decent in daylight for working families, then NC's GOP Congresswoman Virginia Foxx would not be chairing a House Rules Committee hearing / vote @ 1am on a huge tax cut for the rich.
