Every person who pumped his fist at Trump’s news conference should pause and think very hard about letting him — or any president — expand the definition of war until due process dies, blotted out by the flame and smoke of a missile strike. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/07/o...

Why is ICE wearing masks? What are they hiding?
The Mayor of Newark was arrested at an ICE facility—when elected officials showed up, masked agents roughed them up, including an 80-year-old congresswoman. Why?!

Medicaid covers more than 3 million North Carolinians in all, including 1.3 million just in rural counties. Medicaid also pays for 60% of all nursing home stays in our state, and almost half of all childbirths.
Cutting Medicaid would be absolutely devastating to North Carolina.

Bombshell in North Carolina: the state's GOP-dominated Court of Appeals just sided with the GOP candidate in last year's supreme court race.
Their decision would toss roughly 60,000 ballots (!) that have been counted, & likely hand the election to GOP instead of incumbent Dem Justice who won it.

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.

Great to see a #ncpol media org highlight the biggest issue in the biggest part of the state budget…and it’s also great to hear from Jackie McLean, who’s been working tirelessly to get her students the education they’re owed
For North Carolina schools, a 31-year wait for court-ordered funding through Leandro
It’s been a year since the state Supreme Court heard the latest round of arguments in the long-running Leandro school funding case, and there’s still no ruling.

I'm sorry but the Dems are ridiculously bad at their Hegspeth questions. IMO, if you want to prove someone is incompetent, you ask them the hardest strategic questions they will have to know to succeed at the job

Congress failed to reauthorize the Secure Rural Schools Act before it adjourned. The loss of funding will impact school districts in WNC.
