The invasion of Ukraine is an attack on a free people. This Executive Order sends a strong message and helps ensure no public dollars or operations from North Carolina will benefit Russia and its unjustified aggression. governor.nc.gov/news/press-r…

Police are not moving their cars, would not answer a question as to why they arrived at the voting precinct. State board of elections had informed people previously that armed officer should not be stationed in front of polling sites

Our nation was founded on a simple idea: We're all created equal. We've never lived up to it — but we've never stopped trying. This Independence Day, let's not just celebrate those words, let's commit to finally fulfill them. Happy #FourthOfJuly!

A week ago I asked whether it was responsible to carry Trump’s nightly stream of consciousness on live TV. Today, he suggested drinking or injecting disinfectants or “sunlight” to kill the virus. So I will ask again: What value is there to this spectacle?
After hearing presentation President Trump suggests irradiating people's bodies with UV light or injecting them with bleach or alcohol to deal with COVID19.

Dr. Weber: We now have community transmission in NC - transmission not tied to a definite person. The virus should peak in 4-12 weeks. Social distancing will need to continue for 4-6 weeks after that. So we're looking at perhaps mid-August. #NCPol #coronavirus #COVID19

40% of schoolchildren often are cared for by their grandparents while parents are working. Even if kids are carriers, just have mild symptoms, they could pass to their g'ma, g'pa. @ncdhhs @NCPolicyWatch #COVID19
