Buuuuurn

Happy thanksgiving! 🦃🍁🍂
I hope your day is peaceful and your conversations inspiring and uplifting. However, if you’re in the unfortunate situation of having to break bread with MAGAs maybe find some friends to play along.

We need to say a big THANK YOU to Senator Gillibrand for her inspiring leadership for the Equal Rights Amendment 🙏😊🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨 Please sign up and share with your networks!

North Hills Christian School in Salisbury, NC got nearly $1 million in taxpayer voucher funds this school year.

The school charges students with learning disabilities up to $5000 more than their nondisabled peers.

And GOP legislators call this "universal school choice"?? #nced #ncpol

The Red State Brain Drain Isn’t Coming. It’s Happening Right Now. As conservative states wage total culture war, college-educated workers—physicians, teachers, professors, and more—are packing their bags.

Call to Action: Western NC Needs Real Relief: Join the Call for Eviction Protection and Recovery Funds - Just Economics What Happened: Last week the NC General Assembly voted on their 3rd relief bill for WNC since Hurricane Helene’s devastation. SB382 was labeled as a disaster relief bill but didn’t provide much disaster relief at all and contained over 100 pages of undemocratic changes to power at the state level....

We stand with our partners in Western NC in calling on state leaders to prioritize disaster recovery. We must prioritize the needs of survivors and ensure that the Western NC delegation has a voice in recovery planning. #ncga #ncpol Take action ▶️ www.justeconomicswnc.org/call-to-acti...

Thank you, Gov. Cooper, for your veto of Senate Bill 382 — a proposal that fails to advance the rebuilding of Western NC, limits future response to disasters, and disrupts the function of state government. #ncpol #ncga #ncgov

Thanks, I will check this out. It would be great not to have to change apps.

Even more glad to be an ex-FB user!

Crockett: The fact that we have Americans that are saying, wait a minute, are you saying that tariffs are going to negatively impact me? It's kind of like that wall that we are still waiting on Mexico to build, that they are going to pay for. No, we are going to pay for it.

I’m not sure how to set either of these up as a chat app. We have on-going texts in Group Me. We wondered if there was an app that would allow members to enter text in their native language and users being able to read it in their native language.

I’m not sure how to use this as a text chat. We chat during school board meetings among those in the meeting an those online. We plan our meetings and keep in touch using a g

@wesfryer.com I am in a multilingual Public School support network and we are looking for a chat app that will automate translation. Spanish & English. Got anything to recommend. We are currently using GroupMe.

A billboard by the North Carolina School Boards Association reminding us that public education does the public good.

My view from breakfast this morning. I agree. Frustrated that folks need reminding. PublicEducationMatters.org #NCEd #EduSky

Gotta watch Budd. He has a hand in the cookie jar.

Hanging out at PBS North Carolina this morning to tape State Lines, airing Friday. Tune in to find out if these are the other panelists or just my emotional support #ncpol

Bullet ballots, body counts, and the stakes of disinformation With enough followers, anybody can be an expert.

We're having a crisis of credibility. #NCPOL

NC Dems not support black women for office. Just putting them on the ballot is not enough. We have had very good candidates who were beaten by really bad Republicans. Imagine NC with Yvonne, Cheri, and Jessica-without Robinson, Budd, or Bolieck? Are we on the same team?

North Carolina's gerrymandered maps changed the nation.

The three seats stolen from Democrats (mine included) cost Democrats control of the US House of Representatives.

Without a brutal mid-census NC GOP gerrymander Hakeem Jeffries would be the next Speaker in a 218-217 House.

In North Carolina, climate candidates broke the anti-climate supermajority in the House—by just ONE SEAT. This win empowers Gov. Josh Stein to wield his veto, block anti-climate extremism, and negotiate budgets that safeguard communities

remember when the entire U.S. tech press spent 20 straight years propping up Elon Musk's supergenius engineer mythology and if you pointed out he was an opportunistic fraud they'd all look at you like you'd grown an extra head?

good times

Urge Lawmakers to Sustain SB 382's Veto Join me in taking action with Democracy NC! Together we can ensure a democracy that is of, by, and for the people.

Good people of NC, you know what to do. Rally Monday. Gather at 10:30.

New discovery!

Baileywick Dog Park. The pups are having a great time exploring and chasing each other

Dems are hiding behind a wall of white men. We have had some excellent women candidates in NC. As much as I dislike the platform of the Republican's and their Project 2025, they put it out there for everyone one to see. It's time for the national Dems to take a good look at what's wrong.

The people who elected Trump have no connection to the information we have. They aren't stupid or dumb. Spend time listening or reading the media they consume. Try to subtract what you know. The villains are the media moguls counting the money they are making. That's my take on it.
