Three questions: 1. Is who politicians follow online newsworthy? 2. Is the vice-president more important than a primary candidate to be junior Senator from Texas? 3. If the answer is yes to the first two, why isn’t Axios doing a fuck ton of stories about who JD Vance is following?

Had a blast at #CrookedCon yesterday! Thanks to everyone at @crooked.com for putting together such a great event and gathering such insightful speakers (@abreezeclayton.bsky.social and Lina Khan being my favorites). Oh and some newcomer named @barackobama.bsky.social ...

VFRL Board Chairman, Scott Peoples, had the honor of moderating a Veteran’s Town Hall including two of our nation’s best leaders, @captmarkkelly.bsky.social and @jeffjacksonnc.bsky.social. Thanks to @abreezeclayton.bsky.social and the @ncdemocrats.bsky.social for hosting the event!

As Chair @abreezeclayton.bsky.social said: “Tim Moore said the quiet part out loud. He told North Carolinians to ‘pay a little more’ in exchange for jobs tariffs would create. Today’s numbers prove the results are abysmal.”

Last week I had the honor of speaking at the #DNC Summer Conference. I'm grateful to have shared a stage w/ Regina Wallace-Jones (ActBlue President & CEO), @abreezeclayton.bsky.social (NC Dem Party Chair), & Richard Carlbom (MN Dem Party Chair). Thank you for the invitation, @actblueorg.bsky.social!

I’m doing everything I can to stop Trump from dismantling our democracy. That’s why I’m here with @abreezeclayton.bsky.social, but we need your help. If we’re going to fix what’s broken, we have to elect more fighters like @roycoopernc.bsky.social. So if you’re with us, sign up to volunteer today.

“He doesn’t understand us, he doesn’t understand service, he doesn’t understand sacrifice to this nation and sacrifice before self…”

Speaking to a crowd of more than 200 in a Raleigh town hall, U.S. Sen. Mark Kelly (D-Ariz.) denounced President Donald Trump’s treatment of veterans, calling cuts to veterans affairs and the firing of veterans in government “devastating.” Story by @kingdollar.bsky.social #nc #ncpol #veterans

AZ Senator Mark Kelly telling the group of veterans #Trump is off the rails with no ethics in #Veterans Townhall in downtown #RaleighNC with #NC Attorney General Jeff Jackson sponsored by the @ncdemocrats.bsky.social @abreezeclayton.bsky.social

I went to today's Veteran's Town Hall with Sen. Mark Kelly and NC AG Jeff Jackson. Standing room only! Even the toughest questions got answered. What I like most is that each of them thinks very quickly on their feet. So refreshing when a politician doesn't have to measure his or her words! #ncpol

Gerrymandering. Early Voting. Registration Repair. Watch the first ever edition of This Week w/ @abreezeclayton.bsky.social here on BlueSky. youtu.be/ysLVnkpZnss

Started my weekend in Black Mountain, NC, and joined Buncombe County Dems who are already organizing to elect fighters like @roycoopernc.bsky.social. Despite all the bad news these days, this is what gives me hope: communities like this doing the work and holding Donald Trump accountable.

On Saturday, @captmarkkelly.bsky.social as well as @buncombedems.bsky.social chair Kristen Robinson and @ncdemocrats.bsky.social chair @abreezeclayton.bsky.social came to my town, Black Mountain, the Little Town that Rocks. I'm proud to say I helped organize on the local end. It was a super event!

Come blast off with Senator Mark Kelly in the mountains of📍Asheville! We’re kicking off municipal election season and the road to the U.S. Senate in 2026 that runs right through North Carolina! Join us! ⬇️ www.mobilize.us/ncdems/event...

We’re excited to announce that @abreezeclayton.bsky.social will be joining us at the 2025 DMO Summit! Chair Clayton and the team at @ncdemocrats.bsky.social have worked tirelessly to build the party from the local level up and will continue to be an inspiration to Democrats around the country!

Mike Whatley doesn’t know what he’s talking about.

Coalitions win elections. Demstock brought rural Democrats together and made it crystal fucking clear. We’re ready to organize in every corner of Pennsylvania to win in 2025. Grateful for leaders like @malcolmkenyatta.bsky.social and @abreezeclayton.bsky.social for showing up and leading the way

Loved 🥰 Meeting @sanders.senate.gov and the inspiring @abreezeclayton.bsky.social In #asheville today was epic! #northcarolina

My fellow DNC member @abreezeclayton.bsky.social is bringing down the house at #Demstock here in rural PA!

I didn’t realize Duke Energy was so supportive of stealing elections??? I guess the NCDP’s check got lost in the mail! Since they’re all “bi-partisan” and everything. Or was this check used to buy the energy rate hikes the legislature just passed onto every NC consumer???

The Department of Homeland Security is holding up more than $100 million preapproved dollars intended to help hurricane-battered North Carolina clean up storm damage and fix infrastructure, according to documents obtained by The Post.

Chair @abreezeclayton.bsky.social is bringing the rural tour to Mcdowell county tonight! Don’t miss this opportunity to engage directly with these Democratic leaders and special guests. www.mobilize.us/ncdems/event...

Went to Charlotte for a town hall with @betoorourke.bsky.social this evening along with NC's own @abreezeclayton.bsky.social and @wesleyharrisnc.bsky.social Thanks for the inspiration. We have to keep fighting through this mess to come to a better place.

@betoorourke.bsky.social @abreezeclayton.bsky.social

We had some incredible conversations covering a really wide range of urgent topics including America's concentration camps and North Carolina politics with Prof LaCroix, @abreezeclayton.bsky.social, @davidnir.com @andreapitzer.bsky.social. I hope you'll give it a listen:

Help vulnerable NC voters get their voter files ready for the upcoming elections. Join Justice @anitaearls.bsky.social & NCDP Chair @abreezeclayton.bsky.social as we reach out to voters to make the necessary updates to their voter registration so they can vote with confidence. #ncpol.
