When N.Carolina went for Trump in '16 & '20, the statewide top-of-the-ticket gubernatorial race went blue both times -- thanks to democrat Roy Cooper.

Tonight, he joins me for his first TV interview since announcing that he's running for NC's crucial US Senate seat.

See you 9pm Eastern on MSNBC!
I have thought on it and prayed about it, and I have decided: I am running to be the next U.S. Senator from North Carolina.

Behind the tax cuts and spending caps lies a deeper shift: the transformation of government from a guarantor of public good to an instrument of exclusion. The House budget tells a brutal truth about where we’re headed—and who gets left behind.
In America’s new budget, your worth isn’t measured in rights—it’s measured in revenue.
This budget isn’t just a spreadsheet—it’s a declaration of who matters, and who can be discarded.

The combination of President Trump’s trade policies and hostile rhetoric toward much of the rest of the world are creating a chill in international travel to the U.S.

That shift might cost the U.S. $90 billion in revenue this year when combined with product boycotts.
As international tourists pull back on U.S. travel and purchases, $90 billion in lost revenue looms
Visits from Canada, Germany and the United Kingdom have seen particularly significant declines.

Consumer sentiment just hit its second-lowest level since 1952 – worse than anything seen during the Great Recession.

And here’s @rooster.info’s take: “Unhooking libraries from a guaranteed slice of the pie (read: a measly 1.7 percent of the state budget) would turn libraries into just another social service that needs to play nice with the legislators who don’t respect their work.”
Matt Huffman wants to scam libraries, too
The House Republican budget pits schools vs. libraries vs. affordable housing. It doesn't have to be this way.

Trump’s Pentagon is erasing Navajo Code Talkers—Indigenous warriors who helped win WWII—from military websites. This isn’t about “efficiency.” It’s about whitewashing history and erasing those who don’t fit his MAGA narrative.
