The Postmaster General has now been accused, on the record, of the precise crime I questioned him about two weeks ago. There is federal legal exposure, and the state of North Carolina should not hesitate to open its own investigation.
What he said. DeJoy is an arrogant, unapologetic partisan hack, who refuses to put back the sorting machines and blue mail boxes he removed. He doesn't deserve the benefit of the doubt.
“#NCSen Thom Tillis (R) of North Carolina has failed to define himself as much other than a reliable Trump vote in his first term and most polling suggests that former state Sen. Cal Cunningham (D) is ahead.” #ncpolhttps://t.co/2N0mNdTg2A
Go tell it on the mountain. Trump and his ilk are transparent as hell about their support for the top 10%, but too many that are left behind aren't paying attention.
More than twice as many people have died in ICE custody this year than last year, in part due to the immigration agency’s response to COVID-19. 2020 has been the deadliest year for people in immigration detention since 2006.#COVID19NC#ncpol#nchealthhttps://t.co/9NVOyWd4G8
No matter how miserable our own situations are in this pandemic, we can't forget about these families, who are being punished harshly simply for existing.
Not endorsing Trump's EO per se, but NC *should* be paying the unemployed an additional $100 a week, across the board. That's only half of what was slashed earlier in the decade. #ncpol
Until Congress gets its shit together, we need to do this. Most Federal grants come with a state or local government buy-in. And when this thing expires, NC needs to make that extra $100 (if not more) a permanent increase. p.s. This is not a complete reversal of my previous opinion, but I've seen several folks say that Governor Cooper should decline to participate, and that would be a mistake.
None of it is hyperbole folks. Trump and the toady he installed are literally trying to sabotage the us postal service, an almost 250 year old institution. https://t.co/GkHZRrbUTu
There is NO doubt in my mind, based on your record and statements as #NC House Speaker and now US Senator, that you would have NO PROBLEM leaving me to DIE as a "disabled" person @SenThomTillis.
I fully endorse your opponent @CalforNC who is from NC, not Florida like you.#ncpol
Asked if he regretted his Hispanics/mask comment, Thom Tillis told me: "No. I mean what I'm worried about is the same community where we also have to surge medical supplies, therapeutics, vaccines to the areas that are most at risk."
COVID 19 infections align with other negative health outcomes suffered by minority families, thanks to a system that was designed to cater to the wealthy. Everything has a price tag, but not everybody can pay those prices.
