Trump’s Spending Bill means fewer people will have food on their table – by design.

He's forcing states like Illinois to create more bureaucracy for families to get the help they need.

All this to support tax breaks for the rich.

Martin Luther King Jr. understood better than almost anyone that racial justice and economic justice are inextricably intertwined. Watch his powerful call to end poverty from his final Sunday Sermon.

Went to see the Buddhist Monks "Walk For Peace"today and it was really interesting how many people were there looking for hope, joy, peace, or just anything uplifting from the chaos that we are experiencing.

To all the legislators on BSKY - how much more of this bull shit from the Trump administration are you going to allow before you finally do something?

Today the Pentagon censured Senator Mark Kelly and moved to strip part of his earned military retirement benefits for stating the truth.

This administration is trying to convince Americans that truth is whatever it says it is—even when the evidence is plainly in front of us.

Southport is a small but strong community. May we all come together to support them as they heal from this horrific shooting.

We are already starting to see how bad policies coming out of Washington are cutting jobs in our growing clean energy sector. I’ll continue to do whatever I can to protect clean energy jobs and keep North Carolina the #1 state for business.

Because of Washington politicians, rural hospitals are at risk of closing, energy prices are rising, and groceries are too expensive. North Carolina families are struggling to get by.

As your Senator, I will fight for every North Carolinian who feels left behind by DC.

As Governor and Attorney General, I worked to build a stronger North Carolina full of opportunity — and we did just that, investing in our workforce, health care and schools.

But I know Washington DC chaos is hurting our progress, and so my work is not over yet.

Time for our legislators to step up and do something about him
If you want to know where we are on autism, I was just interviewing a child psychiatrist for a piece who told me that parents are afraid of getting their kids an autism diagnosis because they are afraid of the stigma and RFK Jr.'s talk about an autism registry.

You've got to be taught
To be afraid
Of people whose eyes
are oddly made
And people whose skin
Is a different shade
You've got to be carefully taught

You've got to be taught
Before it's too late
Before you are 6 or 7 or 8
To hate all the people
your relatives hate
You've got to be carefully taught

Can anything be done about Elon Mush trying to access the Social Security payment system? Any state AGs filed a lawsuit to stop Musk from having access to SS systems?
