We live in a time that people are more inclined to obey an unlawful executive order than they are to follow a court order 🤦🏾♀️.

Has anyone noticed that the Republican discourse about North Carolina’s storm recovery vanished after the election? Nothing. Not a peep from them.
Probably because they don’t want you to know THEY LITERALLY DENIED FUNDING FOR NORTH CAROLINA THIS WEEK!

The U.S. is the only major country on Earth that does not guarantee workers a paid vacation.
When a husband, wife & kids are unable to spend any time together on vacation, that is not a family value. It's an attack on everything a family is supposed to stand for.
Unacceptable.

ChatGPT erased my line expressing anger and incredulity at calling me a DEI hire, and then lied, claiming the system does that when a search command is triggered.
That’s just a lie.
It admits that it made a “judgement call to “soften the tone of the thread”. As if to protect me.
Wow.
