Private companies making money off wrongfully detained citizens. #NCpol #GEOgroup

In July, NC Republicans passed a law that they were warned would raise the monthly power bill of North Carolina households. They put corporate profits over your family's budget once again. #ncpol https://www.newsobserver.com/news/state/north-carolina/article312998702.html

Ellis repeatedly accuses multiple CBP and ICE officials of lying (under oath) and says their "widespread misrepresentations call into question everything" they "say they are doing in their characterization of what is happening." She broadly discredits their testimony as objectively false.

theres no coming back from this without prosecuting everyone up and down the chain of command

Sen. Thom Tillis wants answers from Homeland Security on Operation Charlotte’s Web. Tillis demands DHS provide lists of detainees, detention durations, and restitution. Other NC Republicans have praised the operation. (Via @daniellebattaglia.bsky.social) www.newsobserver.com/news/politic... #ncpol

Bovino’s father was an alcoholic who killed a woman in a drunk driving accident, he enjoys reading fascist themed YA novels, and watches a video called ‘Rocky Marciano was a Savage’ to get psyched to do abductions and throw tear gas at peaceful protesters. #NCpol www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

I hope #ncpol reporters are paying attention to what's happening in Chicago out of the over 370 people that have been arrested in the Charlotte area, how many of these will lead to actual convictions? Just because the CBP gestapo are leaving doesn't mean the story's over

Check out Piggy’s “hot” economy.

Day 356 of #GeorgiaProtests was full of the American flags. The Georgians request 🇺🇸 support for freedom and democracy in Georgia, and sanctions against the pro-Chinese, pro-Iranian Russian regime that is the Georgian Dream. #MEGOBARI

Two evil despots sitting in a gold palace. What a disgusting image.

Stein had inked today for a special session to pass full funding for Medicaid. GOP leaders in both chambers rejected it. House and Senate both agree it needs $$$, but can't agree on exact bill. Now governor's criticizing Hall & Berger by name. Legislative Dems holding a press event today. #ncpol

Below are the 'Areas of Inquiry' being discussed between the Charlotte City Attorney and Charlotte City Council members in response to CBP/ICE deployment #ncpol #charlotte

“Hasn’t released records” is a key point, because DHS lies. It’s also clear that they are arresting many citizens, so expect the number of arrests to diminish. And how much are taxpayers spending for this farce anyway? What a waste of time and money. #NCpol

Just sayin: the social team and editorial page of McClatchy’s @charlotteobserver.com have been going hard:

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

This is what ICE is doing to the Charlotte community after ONE DAY. Kidnapping working people out of a place of worship IN FRONT OF CHILDREN. I dunno how those agents sleep at night. Shame. #NCpol

For those wondering why ICE is leaving Chicago and heading to Charlotte, it’s because winter in Chicago is hard, and they don’t like to do things that are hard. That’s also why they’re kidnapping law abiding citizens instead of going after criminals.

What a photograph. “Nearly two dozen arrested as faith leaders protested outside a federal immigration facility near Chicago…” Arrested large amounts of peaceful clergy face first on pavement is a pretty good sign you’re not the good guys in the story. www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

A Charlotte pastor said Border Patrol came into his church and made an arrest in front of children. They cried “a lot,” he said. “We are trying to clean the property. We didn’t know this is gonna happen.” #borderpatrol #charlotte #nc

Let them see what happens during an NC ice storm though lol

County Commissioner Susan Rodriguez McDowell talked about the “Shock and Awe” reality show too during a speech Friday. Go look her speech up on Inst. #ncpol #charlotte

Rep. Mark Harris wants the National Guard to help fight crime in Charlotte. Data shows that the more rural parts of his district have a higher rate of violent crime. www.ncrabbithole.com/p/republican...

My Charlotte people, it is time to get ready. Be part of the solution. #NCpol #CLT

The front page of today’s @nydailynews.com.

Someone do a wellness check on Stephen Miller. We are afraid that he may have come in contact with sunlight or holy water. He’s been missing since the latest Epstein email batch dropped.

Gianmarco has a whooooole joke about this www.youtube.com/watch?v=nu6C...

Predictable but still amazing to watch people who spent literally years accusing every librarian, teacher, and trans person they could find of sexually grooming children suddenly throw themselves in with "actually it's ephebophilia"

To see journalists and financiers and academics at best gossiping with Epstein and at worst providing him care and counsel is to see how the #MeToo movement never went far enough: www.thenation.com/article/poli...

#ncpol We need Rodney at the #ncga. He cares about NC folks.

“We believe Charlotte will rise to this occasion and send a message that we protect each other,” said local immigration attorney Becca O’Neill with the Carolina Migrant Network. #ncpol #charlotte https://www.newsobserver.com/news/state/north-carolina/article312875321.html

This has not gotten much attention, but it should. Virginia under Youngkin returned to an insanely harsh system where people convicted of any felony lose their voting rights FOR LIFE. Dems' win this week mean they'll get to advance a constitutional amendment to end lifetime disenfranchisement.

NCGOP is getting prepared to interfere with the next election. #ncpol www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

It’s been 45 days since Adelita Grijalva was elected by the people of Arizona. Mike Johnson is still refusing to swear her in because she’s the final vote for the discharge petition to release the Epstein files.

I LOVE THIS! The Miss Universe Director tried to publicly humiliate Miss Mexico, called her a “dumb head”, tried to silence her response then called security to remove her. EVERY SINGLE WOMAN IMMEDIATELY STOOD UP & WALKED OUT WITH HER! #SolidarityMatters #WomenUnited www.bbc.com/news/videos/...

Again: If this were Biden it would be front page news and Fox would be talking about it non stop. Once again Trump gets a pass.
