An important win by Allison Riggs, the Democratic justice & candidate in the 2024 North Carolina supreme court race: a federal appeals court pauses state courts' order that helped her GOP opponent's bid to overturn Riggs' win in November.
BREAKING: Fourth Circuit, on a 2-1 vote, stops all implementation of N.C. courts' orders in the state supreme court election. Niemeyer, joined by Heytens, writes the decision. Quattlebaum dissents, finding the district court order to be an unappealable TRO. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

If a foreign country took these 12 acts, USA would invade it to "free" its people.
If Obama did this, GOP would have him impeached & media would run it 24/7.
But Trump does this—and most barely make a blip.
How many of these fascist acts did you know about?

The number of non-citizens on Social Security is 0. The cost of printing out this stupid Executive Order is greater than the money received by non-citizens on Social Security—which again is $0.

As an org @hometownvoices.bsky.social ran programs in NC to mobilize turnout for this race- & another program to request overseas ballots. The data is clear & Justice Riggs won. This judge just isn't happy with the outcome. Thank you @ericholder.bsky.social for fighting for justice and democracy!
“Four years after America survived a brazen attempt to overturn an election, we must again stand firm, protect every ballot and demand that the will of the people prevails,” writes Eric Holder Jr., a former attorney general of the United States.
Opinion | The Courts Must Stop This Judge From Stealing an Election
North Carolinians — all Americans — should be watching closely to ensure that justice is done.

We can't abandon our core values of supporting our neighbors in need, this means LGBTQ issues & climate concerns, but it ALSO means not ignoring things that are deeply important to many Americans.The progressive movement knew this in 2016, thought about it for a nano second & then moved on.
Many Americans Say the Democratic Party Does Not Share Their Priorities
A poll from The New York Times and Ipsos found that Americans believe abortion, L.G.B.T.Q. issues and climate change concern Democrats more than the cost of living.

Important piece by @originalsp.in on why birthright citizenship should matter to all Americans: "If our American birthright is to be seen as something that can be struck away with an idle stroke of the executive pen, no right, entitlement or privilege could remain safe."
President Donald Trump issued an anti-American executive order challenging birthright citizenship. This is an attack on what it means to be American. Read Jeff Yang's @originalsp.in piece here: theemancipator.org/2025/01/29/s...
Citizenship must remain our birthright
Trump's racist anti-immigration crusade is eroding what it means to be an American

2025 carries high stakes for policing and criminal justice, including immigration enforcement. There will be roughly 160 elections for prosecutor and sheriff this year. Most are concentrated in just four East Coast states.
