If they can do this in NC, they will come for EVERY election in which a Democrat has won or will win. This will ultimately be the last nail in the coffin of our democracy …⚰️
GOP court decision overturning Democratic victory in North Carolina Supreme Court race is 5 alarm fire for democracy. It’s January 6 without the insurrection. Make no mistake, if GOP succeeds in stealing election in NC, they’ll use that playbook everywhere www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Another sup’ bites the dust 💨Working with Dr. Jones, there were as many things to love about him as there were to not. But many of his ‘faults’ were not his alone to own (ahem, school board’s) and there were key times he listened to the spectrum of community voices and (thankfully) changed course.

Just now, I voted NO on a procedural step to advance Russ Vought's nomination to manage our nation's budget.
In light of the illegal spending freeze orchestrated by Vought himself and the Trump administration's recent lawlessness, every Senator should vote NO.

Canadian PM Trudeau announced 25% tariffs on $150 billion+ in U.S. goods, following Trump's announcement Saturday of 25% tariffs on Canadian goods.
It's going to hurt both us and Canadians, but it's not an unreasonable response to what are incredibly unreasonable actions by the Trump administration
