The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted. If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

VA Gov - Dem NJ Gov - Dem VA At Gen - Dem Prop 50 - passes Mamdani - wins PA judges - retained And JD Vance’s brother lost the Cincinnati mayoral election!! 💋 💋 ……. And lots of other significant wins too!! It’s a good day for Democrats and Democracy

Raleigh peeps- Please join the protest on Mon Apr 14 10-11am at the downtown bicentennial plaza If J Griffin prevails in his baseless, meritless challenge, the GOP will use this as a blueprint to rack up more (illegal) “wins” in the rest of the country. track-mg.mobilize.us/CL0/https:%2...

Where are all the so-called fiscally responsible GOP? When people are being let go in the thousands, departments gutted, stock market tanking and people seeing their savings disappear in front of their eyes…. this charlatan wants a military parade 😡😡 www.thedailybeast.com/trump-orders...

North Carolinians- voting is a privilege and your vote matters. Please check if your name is on this list. The GOP wants to invalidate your vote and your voice. Don’t let them get away with this!!

Hello! We are a scrappy three-year-old civics blog based in Chapel Hill and Carrboro, NC. We just updated thegriffinlist.com, which contains detailed instructions for 65,000 NC voters whose votes might be thrown out in the state Supreme Court race. Please share!

🚨 From NCDP: The Republican-majority on the N.C. Court of Appeals rules to overturn the decision of the Wake County Superior Court (and the voters in the state) in a 2-1 decision to disenfranchise more than 65,000 voters from LAST year’s election. This is putting the thumb on the scales. 😡🤬🤬

Great empty chair Tillis event this evening in Raleigh. It was packed. It was nice to see such a big group of people. And the frustration and anger was quite palpable. (I even won a rubber chicken for correctly answering a trivia question about Tillis 😂😂)

Each time I think Trump has announced his worst pick, another one comes along to one-up the previous nominee. RFK Jr Beavis and Butthead -(Ramaswamy and Musk) Hegseth Elise Stefanik Linda McMahon Kristi Noem Ratcliffe Homan Gaetz Patel Kushner etc. etc.

I wonder which R senators have the spine to say a full FBI vetting is a prerequisite for them to consider Trump’s nominations. I read Sen Lisa Murkowski has taken this position. Any others with a backbone?

Trump stiffs the hard working people. Again.

Take a wild guess who appointed that judge. That’s right — Donald Trump. Thanks to him, 4 million people will no longer get a raise. It’s far from the first time he’s cheated working class people out of their money, and it certainly won’t be the last.

My first post here. I’m a Democrat. Boy, has this election just about killed me. And I thought 2016 was bad. But I’m here to see how we can pick up the pieces (after I’ve mourned) and how I can help in this. I tell myself “Breathe!! Tomorrow is a new day”. But it is so goddamn hard.

You are up to date.
