NC Gov. Stein calls for halt to tax reductions, phase out of school vouchers in $35B budget proposal North Carolina hasn't passed a comprehensive state budget since 2023, largely due to disagreements among legislative Republicans.

Governor Stein's budget proposal increases teacher salaries and rolls back voucher spending. We agree! This should just be the start of boosting teacher pay at all levels and years. Ending vouchers will help free up billions in the next few years. #nced #ncpublicschools

Thank you Governor Stein for taking the essential step in rolling back the unaccountable, wasteful voucher program! Our public schools need our public funding! #nced #ncpublicschools

This is your periodic reminder that Democrats introduced legislation in 2021 to ban gerrymandering nationwide and every republican voted against it except two who were absent.

Your government refusing to prosecute sexual predators, but protect them instead, only makes sense when you realize your government is being run by sexual predators.

"If you're looking for a Democrat who is going to fight Donald Trump and stand up for the Democratic Party, and from the fight wing of the Democratic Party, which I'm proudly from, you've gotta support this guy, George Conway."

Washington Examiner: Imagine it was someone other than President Donald Trump. Suppose a different leader were posting deranged rants in the small hours, insulting the spiritual leader of 1.3 billion Catholics, threatening entire civilizations with annihilation, and comparing himself to God. What would be the reaction?

That game was an instant classic, and I'm really glad the #Canes won. However, even with the controversy in the first OT, we got some major puck luck, and Ullmark did deserve a better fate. He was remarkable. #LetsGoCanes

John Roberts' wife is not the only Supreme Court spouse to shake down people with business before the court to give bribes. Ginni Thomas has a "consulting firm" (AKA a PO Box for checks) to funnel money to Clarence. #Corruption

Spain has recently outpaced the US in GDP growth, emerging as one of the fastest-growing major advanced economies. As of 2024–2025, Spain’s economy is growing at a rate over 3% annually, exceeding the US (~2%) and Eurozone (~1%) averages.

Donald is such an uninformed idiot.

The American gestapo abducted an 85 year-old widow.

Was she one of the worst of the worst? No, her step-son, a retired Alabama state trooper, got ICE to put her in a detention center to deport her because he wanted all of his father's inheritance.

Sounds like the son is the worst of the worst.

ICE And The Absence Of Accountability Earlier this month, at the notorious state-run immigration detention facility in Florida dubbed “Alligator Alcatraz” by state officials, there was another incident.

In Maine, ICE brazenly called their operation “catch of the day.” The banal inhumanity of it all is overwhelming. The deaths, the injuries, the conditions in detention, the brazen disregard for people’s rights, including American citizens. And it’s still happening.

Hegseth Borrows Violent Prayer from ‘Pulp Fiction’ to Bless Iran War at April Pentagon Worship Service For the second month in a row, Pete Hegseth, who likes to call himself “secretary of war,” read a violent prayer — that echoes a scene in the Quentin Tarantino film Pulp Fiction — during a worship ser...

At Pentagon worship service today, Pete Hegseth again read a violent prayer to bless the Iran war. But this time his prayer was apparently borrowed from 'Pulp Fiction.' I promise I'm not writing for @theonion.com now:

Donald Trump is killing real schoolgirls in Iran and kidnapping and murdering real Americans in the streets. Interesting that the only thing he’s done that went “too far” for MAGA was an *imaginary* image. What a ridiculous world we live in.

Today, Pamela Jo Bondi, our most recent head of the Department of Justice, is blithely ignoring a valid, legal subpoena requiring her to testify before Congress.

We are not a nation of laws. We are a nation of some people can get away with anything.

Smart political move. Takes it to the Rs. Everyone is seeing Trump fall apart in real time. Make his party vote, or at least refuse to vote on this measure, and keep the issue live for the election.

Hungary seems to be inspiring people here too.
