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.

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

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...
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....

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

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.

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?

The Tariff Act of 1930 was designed for protectionist trade. It imposed high tariffs on over 20,000 imported goods which led to retaliatory tariffs from other countries.

Why am I telling you this?

In case you're ever asked "what were the key contributors to the Great Depression?"
