Israeli military says strike on Gaza hospital was targeting a Hamas camera The Israeli military says its strike on a Gaza hospital that killed 20 people, including five journalists, was aimed at what military officials believed was a Hamas surveillance camera, as well as peo...

20 more people are dead (5 of them, journalists) because a supposed "Hamas camera" somehow justified bombing the biggest remaining hospital in Gaza.

Some amazing people got up to speak that night. Can't wait to see clips from the ones in Greensboro, Raleigh, and Asheville!

It's not even about conspiracy or bending the knee. It's just the same double standard that makes them use happy vacation photos to report on white male family annihilators but mugshots to report on a Black person caught shoplifting baby formula.

Take note of which of your media sources call Jeffrey Epstein a sexual predator or similar, and which ones only call him a "disgraced financier."

TOWN HALL - FINAL REMINDER!
Members of the community will gather tonight to discuss the ways this broken budget from Congress will impact our families and our neighborhoods, and begin planning a path forward. #ncpol #charlotte #brokenbudget

Wow... definitely nothing weird about that.

Trump’s National Guard Troops Are Questioning Their Mission in L.A.

California National Guard soldiers used a... unique form of protest over being sent to LA. Humvees had to be sanitized & "bathroom security" had to be tightened. #creative-resistance

They voted for this MAGA Budget the day after Gov. Josh Stein sent them an explanation of the ways it would hurt NC's Medicaid, SNAP, & growing clean energy economy. They knew exactly what they were voting for. #ncpol #big-ugly-bill #medicaid #northcarolina

They're taking an axe to supports & safety nets for the working class in order to give handouts to billionaires and pay for Trump's vanity projects. #ncpol #biguglybill

Y'all approved $40 million for Trump to buy statues for something call a "Garden of Heroes," but somehow we don't have the money for oxygen tanks and wheelchairs? #biguglybill #medicaid

whom they won't be there to serve. The National Civilian Community Corps serve with non-profits, community organizations, and FEMA. They help during natural disasters, including Helene and Katrina. Since 1999, they've given over 8M service hours on 3,400 disaster projects. DOGE deemed that waste...

My year with AmeriCorps was crucial to my journey out of the bubble I grew up in and into the person I am today. The people and places I was surrounded by were priceless. My heart goes out to the over 2,000 corps members who were terminated via email yesterday by DOGE and to the people & communities

This guy is running youtube ads aimed at seniors right now, trying to convince them that he's a champion of their healthcare. Even for the Senate, he's impressively two-faced. #ncpol #timetotossTillis #medicaid

1M+ Americans receiving medical treatment for addiction to fentanyl & other opioids could be effected by the Medicaid cuts Trump's budget would require. Medicaid helps pay for almost 90% of addiction treatment and expansion is credited for a major drop in overdose deaths. #ncpol #medicaid #addiction

Breaking Story: Two NC State engineering students forced to leave the US without warning in recent student targeting by the White House. Full story in the thread. #ncpol #ncstate #immigration

Rumeysa Ozturk, a grad student studying the effects of digital media on child development had her visa canceled and was snatched off the street by masked ICE agents because she wrote an op-ed calling for her school to divest from Israel & recognize the genocide. Her lawyer doesn't know where she is.

This kind of bill has been proposed before but this time seems different. Senate Majority Leader, Phil Berger has signed on as a cosponsor, something he rarely does for any bill. He normally only adds his name to a piece of legislation to signal to other Republicans to get on board.

Currently, for anyone 21+ to carry a concealed handgun in NC they have to take a course on firearm safety & self-defense laws and then pass an accuracy test. Republican lawmakers now want to remove those basic requirements and lower the age to 18. #ncpol ncnewsline.com/2025/02/07/thr…

Small red note cards show an explanation of 4th Amendment rights written in Spanish. These cards were passed out by immigrant advocates in Charlotte, NC.

Not everyone can lead a Know Your Rights training, but there are things we can all do to spread knowledge and show solidarity with our immigrant neighbors. Something as simple as passing out 4th Amendment cards like these that advocates are distributing in Charlotte communities. #NC #immigrantsofNC

Raleigh protest focuses on resistance against Trump, Musk, Project 2025 A nationwide movement protesting the early actions of President Donald Trump made a stop in Raleigh on Wednesday.

Lots of turnout today for the 50501 protest in Raleigh. These protests (1 in every state) have been organized anonymously on sites like reddit to push back on what Trump/Musk have done in the first weeks of this term. www.wral.com/news/local/p...

@pnca.bsky.social Jefferson Griffin is trying to overturn a fair election in NC by tossing 60K voters' ballots, and it seems that he can't even show his face in public while he does it. Judge Griffin, you know this is wrong. It's time to concede. #ncpol #timetoconcede ncnewsline.com/2025/02/03/g...

Stein asks NC lawmakers to pay $1 billion for 'urgent rebuilding needs' in western areas after Helene Gov. Josh Stein's Helene budget proposal details spending plans for rebuilding homes, giving out business grants, repairing farms and revitalizing downtowns throughout western North Carolina.

While Josh Stein asks for Helene Recovery funds to meet immediate needs, NC Republicans keep stalling. In fact, they still haven't released the $270M from the sham of a relief bill last November and haven't scheduled a vote to do so. #ncpol #ncgov #Helene www.wral.com/story/stein-...

Trump folded quicker than a folding chair, leaving a T-Ball game.

Canada and Mexico didn't give him anything new. They're doing what they were already doing - Trump is just too stupid to realize it.

#Trump #folded

Local protesters oppose Trump's OMG nominee Vought, Musk's access to federal payment system Demonstrators asked federal lawmakers to reject Russell Vought as the new head of the federal Office of Management and Budget.

Greensboro locals gathered in protest yesterday outside Sen Thom Tillis' office. Issues included the nomination of Project 2025 author, Russell Vought to Trump's cabinet, Musk being given access to federal employee financial info, & more. #TimeToTossTillis tinyurl.com/38enxx22

Trump orders pause to all federal grants and loans It's a sweeping decision that could disrupt education and health care programs, housing assistance, disaster relief and a host of other initiatives that depend on billions of federal dollars.

Trump’s federal funding freeze could impact disaster assistance programs just a few days after visiting Western North Carolina. It is appalling yet NC Republicans remain silent. If Republicans can’t stand up to Trump on this, what will they stand up for? www.reuters.com/world/trump-...

Heading to the US Court of Appeals where Jefferson Griffin will argue to throw out the ballots of 65,000 North Carolinians and overturn the election that he lost fair and square #ncpol #ncgov #timetoconcede
