In April, NC's top Republicans formed a committee to investigate a COVID-era settlement former Gov. Roy. Cooper’s admin reached with advocacy groups to reduce the state prison population. Five months later, the group has nothing to show for itself. #ncpol

That’s a long pause #ncpol
Dodge, duck, dip, dive, and dodge.
First chance for Belichick to discuss the internal investigations findings that demonstrated "a disregard for Carolina's values and standards of conduct." I asked Belichick how they are being fixed, @BrendanRMarks asked if Belichick was surprised by the findings. #UNC

First college game of the year. First-ever foul ball secured from @NCStateBaseball!

Hat tip to the fine folks at a tobacco receiving station in Wilson for recommending Marty’s BBQ. I still give Grady’s in Dudley the edge if for no other reason than that killer sweet potato pie, but Marty’s is up there in the conversation for top Eastern NC BBQ. All this <$10
Whatley’s frustration with the media now extends to the Carolina Journal — a conservative newsletter that has released polls showing Whatley trailing Cooper sizably. #ncpol
U.S. Senate candidate @WhatleyNC confronts reporter on unfavorable poll: "You guys have the worst pollster in the history of North Carolina, it's absolutely unbelievable."
Asked Democratic U.S. Senate Roy Cooper for his thoughts on the idea of abolishing the filibuster and his specific plans to stave off 22% Social Security cuts by 2032 if elected. “Right now, the filibuster is protecting from bad legislation,” he says. #ncpol
To commemorate Dolly Parton on 9/25 (aka 9 to 5 Day) @NC_Governor issues a proclamation. Today is henceforth Dolly Parton's The Imagination Library Day of Reading. #ncpol
In 2010, the NC Supreme Court reached unanimity in two-thirds of its decisions. Thus far this year, consensus has been reached in 48% of cases. #ncpol
The only time the court has been more split over the past 15 years came in 2022 and 2023— the final year of Democrats’ majority on the bench and first year of Republicans’ majority. Partisanship got particularly pronounced after SupCo contests became partisan in 2018. #ncpol
