No David, Stephen Miller is a fascist who wants an authoritarian government. Plain and simple. It’s where we’re at. @davidcorn.bsky.social

This is exactly what we need. Attorneys standing up for the rule of law and attorney ethics. I wrote about how state bars need to act, and 700 NC attorneys stepping up drives the point home. #NorthCarolina #ncpol www.acslaw.org/expertforum/...

This isn’t just about fighting crime.

Stephen Miller is the epitome of the fascist / authoritarian movement. Reference to β€œus” having the β€œfull weight of the federal government behind us” makes it clear. He’s talking to all Americans. Warning us. Don’t cross us or we’ll come after you too. #ncpol

How many of you want your health care costs to go up or lose your health care insurance outright?

Okay. Now, support the Democratic Party right now and next month at the polls.

Fragile N.C. Residents Lose Medicaid Support for Food and Housing

Trump and our state GOP are not good for North Carolina. Vote Blue and bring NC back to the great state it was before Berger. β€œWhat you do to the meat of us you do unto me.” #NorthCarolina #ncga #ncpol

Of course the Trump-Patel FBI and Trump-Bondi DOJ didn’t interview the main witness before charging Comey because that’s how things work now. #FBI #Trump #Justic #ncpol

The last book I read (to the right by @leahlitman.bsky.social )and the current book I am reading (to the left by @johnfugelsang.bsky.social ). Both amazing reads that will enlighten you and help you understand how we got here.

I mean yes this is funny, but the fact that these unconstitutional stormtroopers are so directionless that they literally stand around waiting for random nonwhite delivery guys to bike past them is just pathetic. No mandate, no mission, no clue. Just racism.

It’s coming and in large part here already, with Republicans following the Project 2025 handbook. We need to brace for it. The radical wing of the U.S. Supreme Court has opened the door to it years ago. #SCOTUS #Religion #SeperationChurchState #ncpol

With no NC health funding deal, the state is poised to cut Medicaid rates β€’ NC Newsline Reductions in Medicaid health insurance payments are set to hit next week, threatening patient care and jobs in NC.

This graph highlights the destructive lie Trump and his administration are trying to spread that the left is violent. There’s been violence on both sides but it’s the right that is responsible for most of it and it’s not even close. #TrumpLies #ncpol #NorthCarolina

A million dead Americans as a result of flawed GOP policy and Trump mischaracterizations and outright lies. No justice for them. No national Memorial Day for them. Just more bad health policy leading to more sickness and death.

Turns Out Trump’s Own Team Messed Up U.N. Escalator and Teleprompter A U.N. official says Donald Trump’s team was responsible for the β€œbroken” escalator and teleprompter he complained about incessantly.

ICYMI, reports are the Trump UN elevator stop was an accident caused by a Trump aid using it just ahead of him. The teleprompter was entirely controlled by the White House when Trump had issues with it. #UN #Trump #Truth www.yahoo.com/news/article...
