Everyone should hear this speech. The speech that NC Republicans want to erase from history.

Way to go, #Asheville! #NoKings rally was even bigger than the last one. Power to the People!

5,000+ gathered and marched as the sun set in Asheville. #NoKings

Today in Asheville #asheville

"In the ancient world, people spoke of 'Ultima Thule,' a mythical land in the extreme north, the end of the earth. By venturing north to Alaska to meet Vladimir Putin, Donald Trump reaches his own Ultima Thule, the arctic endpoint of a foreign policy dreamworld." snyder.substack.com/p/ultima-thule

Lesson 13 of "On Tyranny": Practice corporeal politics. Find your No Kings protest, June 14th.

Colbert: Mike Johnson and Russ Vought have said no one is going to lose their Medicaid. Is that something you would describe as true? NC Gov. Josh Stein: Untrue. I would use true, but I would add "un" in front of it. You cannot take $700 billion out of the system without people losing coverage.

Erasing Harvey Milk’s name is disgusting, blatant discrimination—and during Pride Month to boot. He served the U.S. Navy and his country honorably, and he was assassinated while serving the public and fighting for LGBTQ+ rights. Hegseth should be ashamed of himself and reverse this immediately.

Billions in foreign real estate deals. $320M in crypto trading fees — and a private dinner with top buyers of his meme coin. $28M from Amazon for a Melania documentary. The list goes on... We're so numb to Trump profiting off the presidency that hardly anyone notices. Hello?

At its core, nonpartisanship is not just a policy — it’s a bedrock principle that defines who we are at the League of Women Voters. But nonpartisanship doesn't mean remaining silent amidst threats to our democracy. Read more about the League’s nonpartisanship policies: www.lwv.org/blog/staying...

Aaaand there it is.

Strains bounds of propriety? Strains…bounds…of…proprietary? Am I having a stroke? What is happening?

Do your job, Sean.

Why 3.5? The number 8.5 million is the estimated number of voters it would take to bring about change through nonviolent protest. If 3.5% of eligible voters — 8,575,000 people — engage in nonviolent protests, we WILL bring about meaningful change! www.lwv.org/uniteandrise

The League of Women Voters of North Carolina secured a victory last night in our lawsuit regarding the contested 2024 N.C. Supreme Court race! This is what it means to defend democracy and protect the sacred pact between citizens and the government. More: my.lwv.org/north-caroli... #ncpol

Here's the truth about tax cuts for the rich. They explode the federal debt, fuel giant profits at the biggest firms and financial institutions, and stoke a surge in billionaire wealth, but do nothing for average working people.  Nothing trickles down.

Trump has deported a four-year-old US citizen with a rare form of metastatic cancer without medication or consultation with their doctor.

At yesterday's rally in Asheville NC #asheville #resistance

All Americans — no matter who you voted for in 2024 — need to come together, stand united, and fight back to save our democracy. We cannot afford to fail the generations to come. Full statement: www.lwv.org/newsroom/pre...

🚨BREAKING: Huge win for NC voters wrongly listed as "never residents." The North Carolina State Board of Elections says these voters will remain in the count and not have votes stripped. As for other "never residents" in dispute, they'll get due process w/ 30-day window. #ncpol

"Within minutes after DOGE accessed the NLRB's systems, someone with an IP address in Russia started trying to log in. The attempts were 'near real-time'... "Whoever was attempting to log in was using one of the newly created DOGE accounts..." www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...

Emergency video: it’s time to start making plans. Either the house steps up to defend the constitution, or our generation does. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/emergency-...

Today, LWVNC and four individual voters — on behalf of other similar voters — filed a complaint and emergency motion for a temporary restraining order in the US District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina. #ncpol my.lwv.org/north-caroli...

Our statewide coalition will exhaust every option to defend impacted voters who Judge Jefferson Griffin’s unconstitutional power grab has disproportionately challenged. This link contains steps that we encourage impacted voters to take. my.lwv.org/north-caroli... #ncpol

I still can’t figure out when “we can deport you” turned into “we can put you in a hell hole prison in a third country, indefinitely, with no legal recourse.”

Hands Off rally in Asheville, NC today #handsoff #asheville

As has been stated quite a few times, Republicans could shut this down at any time if they wanted to…

"None of these men is speaking. Or moving. Or making any facial expressions. They have clearly been posed by the jailers, forced to hold position so they can be useful props for the American woman so that she can manufacture propaganda for her regime."

open.substack.com/pub/calirock... With Musk announcing his “departure” from “DOGE” next month & as we get further into what is happening to our country - reposting so we can be prepared for whatever they throw at us next. Time for some deep thinking and planning.

Today I got an email from Social Security inviting me to view my "new, improved" Social Security statement. When I tried to do so I got this message - Online Service Not Available. #elonmusk #socialsecurity

Did your senator(s) vote to confirm Hegseth? Now is your chance to call them and remind them you were going to hold them Directly Accountable when it went wrong. And it just went way wrong. www.senate.gov/legislative/...

Pete Hegseth should resign. Every member of Congress who cares about national security should be calling for it. If he were a Democrat he’d be gone already.

People like this fiery veteran are why MAGA Republicans have stopped having town halls. Last night, he continued to shred Rep. Chuck Edwards (R-NC) as police officers were dragging him out. The MAGAs are not so fond of free speech now. Never stop speaking up, America; this is our right!

Ashevillle, NC - Over a thousand people who couldn't get in the auditorium for yesterday's Chuck Edwards Town Hall rallied outside #asheville #chuckedwards #townhallmeeting #resistance
