If you cared about NC, you’d let the people decide in fair districts instead of drawing crooked lines to rig an election. This is corruption, plain and simple. You can’t win on your ideas, so you cheat.

Nothing about our schools, healthcare, economy, or helping working families, just raw power grabs to silence voters. You’re gerrymandering because you’re TERRIFIED of democracy.

From Jim Crow politicians who drew lines and wrote rules to keep people from voting, to every authoritarian who feared the ballot box, they all had one thing in common: they knew their ideas couldn’t win in the light of democracy.

You’re RIGGING the maps because you know you can’t win in free and fair elections. This is politics and Trump FIRST, North Carolina and America LAST. History is full of those who silenced the people’s voice to cling to power.
We’re putting America First in NC! Thank you @POTUS for your strong leadership 🇺🇸

Trump snaps his fingers and NC Republicans spring into action, rushing back to Raleigh to rig congressional districts. They won’t even tell Senate Democrats when session starts. This isn’t democracy. It’s a coup in plain sight.
North Carolina legislative leaders haven’t passed a budget. Teachers are not getting paid what they deserved. Law enforcement is underfunded. But they have found the time to introduce a rigged map for Donald Trump. Disgraceful.

Oh man, Blaine’s ads used to be so much more fun, this isn’t even close to “Michael clean your room!”. 😎 https://t.co/En9savUQVD

There’s no mention of you, your kids, your family, your schools, your healthcare. Gerrymandering is toxic. They feel so secure in their rigged districts, they ignore you and your family. Only you have the power to prove them wrong.

Wait… there’s “My Pillow TV”?!?! 🤣🤣🤣 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
“We’re with MyPillow TV and we’re just asking questions.” Some of the dumbest shit ever was said under the guise of “just asking questions.” We will never, ever let these motherfuckers whitewash what Trump did on January 6th, 2021. That will be a stain MAGA has to wear forever.

Republicans have had the house, senate and governors mansion for 30 years in S.C. 6/7 US house seats last decade +. And both senators last 20 years and S.C. still struggles in quality of life, crime, education and wealth. So respectfully your tweet is bullshit.
Good. Their ideas hurt the people they are supposed to represent. Make it fair and give Republicans a fighting chance.

OBAMA: “What if I sent the National Guard into Texas and said I don’t care what Governor Abbott says… and just kind of took over?” Imagine that. Fox News would’ve held a 96-hour emergency broadcast with 18 split screens and a countdown to “Tyranny Day.” But when it’s Trump

Our teachers don’t know if their classrooms will have funding, our healthcare systems reeling from Medicaid cuts, economic development projects stalled, our families facing rising costs at every turn… They care about power, not YOU. @GavinNewsom is spot fu***** on.
The pathetic legislative leaders of North Carolina haven’t even passed a budget. And what are they busy doing? Rigging the next election for Trump. Their priorities are clear — bend the knee to Trump, screw over North Carolina. Remember that.

When politicians start horse-trading endorsements for redistricting deals, they’re not just betraying their office, they’re stealing the fundamental right to fair representation. This kind of backroom dealing turns democracy into a rigged casino where voters never win.
NC Senate leader Phil Berger to get endorsement from President Donald Trump in exchange for redistricting, sources say #ncpol

Our children are watching. The next generation is depending on us. We cannot, we will not, let them down.

Whether you’re a parent, a grandparent, an aunt, an uncle, or anyone who loves a child, we have a responsibility to call this out. The health of the American people is not something to gamble with. It is time to rid HHS of the rot at the top before more damage is done.

The rot has spread too far. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. must resign, not just for the sake of policy, but for the sake of every child who deserves leaders guided by truth rather than trapped by conspiracy.

I’ve tucked my children into bed every night since they were born. I’ve kissed scraped knees, checked for monsters under beds, and promised them they were safe. How can I keep that promise when the very institutions meant to protect them have been hijacked by dangerous delusions?

This isn’t about politics. This isn’t about party lines or campaign promises. This is about the sacred covenant we make as parents and grandparents, to protect the defenseless, to shield the innocent, to ensure that our children inherit a world safer than the one we found.

Bernie Sanders spoke truth when he warned that this trajectory will scar America for generations. But let me be even more direct: every day RFK Jr. remains in that office, more families move closer to an unthinkable tragedy that could have been prevented with a simple shot.
