Not only was it a major night for Democrats nationally, but also in local elections across North Carolina. You won't read about about these in the headlines tomorrow, but NC Dems are continuing to lay impressive groundwork — building the bench and racking up wins.

I’m genuinely just sitting in the office in shock. We won everything. Young voters turned out in force for Dems. We’ve never been so back.

The GOP was already freaking out about the impending Trump effect on the midterms. Now they’re fucking terrified.

The news about Rep. Cecil Brockman is sickening and horrifying. He must resign immediately. As
@ydnc.bsky.social
President
@awbrakeley.bsky.social
said, “anything less would be a continued insult to the victim, survivors, families, and to every person who believes in justice.”

Looks like former NC Gov
#roycooper
is getting set to throw his hat in the ring for US Senate. Axios is reporting that he’ll be announcing next week, though I think he might announce at the
#ncdp
Unity Dinner. We’ll see. Exciting times.

Here it is, folks. They're proudly saying if you support due process and you disagree with this administration's actions, you are now considered a terrorist. Even the
#Trump

#fascism

The youth vote is splitting. Young women are voting blue in record numbers. Young men? They're drifting to the right — fast. Read it on The Youth Observer:

Make no mistake, the
@northcarolinagop.bsky.social
and their cronies on the Court of Appeals do not care about letting your vote count. Any voters you know who are overseas/military or who might have missing voter registration info need to know that they only have 15 days to fix said info.

My name is Chuck Hubbard. If we haven't yet met, I’m a North Carolinian, a retired newspaper reporter, and as of today, I'm the Democrat challenging MAGA extremist Virginia Foxx for North Carolina’s 5th Congressional District in 2026.

NC has joined this lawsuit. Statement from AG Jackson: "My job is to be a shield for the people of North Carolina – and that includes protecting their health care. The fed gov can’t just cancel nearly a quarter billion dollars that have already been congressionally allocated to our state."

So good to see folks turning out to make sure Johnstonians know how destructive Sen. Tillis and this administration is. Time for him to be out of power.

The real question is where do you want to be in that history book? Will you simply be a bystander, waiting to tell your grandchildren about the days that happened before? Or are you willing to at the very least be a footnote in those books? Are you willing to dare to be part of something?

I don't think I need to tell you that Newsmax is not a trustworthy organization. However, in case you are not aware of this "news" organization's reach and influence as a propaganda arm of the Republican establishment, here is a perfect example:

Pretty crazy how fast Twxtter has been purging while BlueSky is surging. If this is any bit as good I'll try sticking around here. Seems like a good place to not see bigots every other post.
