Speaking of the Winnipeg Jets, I am still looking to sell off my ticket and parking pass for the Canes’ November 28th game 😅
Asking what I paid for them - $135. Section 108, Row W, Seat 1 (aisle) + general parking. Lmk if interested! #RaiseUp

These posters started popping up ahead of next week’s We Ain’t Buying It boycott.
From Nov 27 - Dec 1, folks are stepping back from corporate chains like Target, Home Depot, and Amazon. People are done being squeezed, so they are using the leverage of their wallets 💥

I like how these commentators talk like they know the tendencies of the Canes, and they're 100% incorrect. But they say it with such confidence.

Republicans just led the longest government shutdown in history and used mass hunger as a bargaining chip. They don't care about DC's safety — they care about their own power.
Democrats, do the right thing and VOTE NO on H.R. 5214 and 5107.

Only two nations in the world use cash bail: the Philippines and the United States.
DC eliminated cash bail more than 30 years ago because it's wrong to have one system of justice if you're rich and another if you're poor.
House Dems, DC is watching your votes on H.R. 5214.

ICE is neither wanted or needed here. Our neighbors do not deserve to be afraid to leave their homes.
Take a look at all of the businesses closed or operating at a reduced capacity, these are members of our community that make it what it is.

Brier Creek is a great location if ICE wants to be able to hassle both Raleigh and Durham.
We are getting mobilized. All hands on deck. Follow @siembranc.bsky.social to see how you can help.

CBP vehicles were seen at the Brier Creek shopping center earlier today. I'm guessing they've set up camp in that area. #ice #cbp #raleigh #briercreek
