Veteran education analyst: Judge Howard Manning’s misguided views on education should also be retired | The Progressive Pulse https://t.co/WUlzTv3Gmn #Leandro #ncga #ncpol #nced #bluenc #red4EdNC

I agree. His latest op-ed reads like a GOP press release, blaming teachers and principals. He should have focused on bringing more resources to lower income school districts, instead of whining about no progress.

Thomas's reasoning seems to be that the 1A bars gov't from doing anything that any religious person who works in gov't might disagree with.

(Of course, his REAL argument is that only conservative Christians should be given such latitude for their scruples.)#ncpol https://t.co/itOMMLiz8G

Clarence Thomas is the poster child for bad Supreme Court nominations. But he's got some serious competition for that title these days.

What the hell is Madison Cawthorn doing in Atlanta? You know what, I don't want to know, at least until I have more coffee.

Happy #WorldTeachersDay! Due to COVID-19, our nation's educators have pioneered an unprecedented learning environment- while continuing to impart their knowledge, support, and wisdom. Their dedication to their students during this time of crisis is unmatched. Thank you! #ncpol pic.twitter.com/7Ub1ITUZxG

Tell that to the Stanly County elementary school teacher who just died from COVID 19. Oh wait...

The other main driving force behind the attempted takeover of Asheville's water system?

Who, because he got whipped by @BrianTurnerNC, moved to Henderson County for the sole purpose of running for a safer seat at the #ncga#ncpol

I could have gone (forever) without seeing Tim Moffit's name in print again.

So they are preparing to shut down the county/state again. Mecklenburg County (Charlotte). LOL. #ncpol https://t.co/lVHHP8BoPZ

The President of the United States is hospitalized for this virus, and you're still acting ignant about pandemic precautions. Can't fix stupid.

Dem operative takes 12 seconds of my answer out of context and “journalists” go wild.

Clearly the point I was making is that first-hand experience changes the way any individual talks about or relates to something.

Out of context my ass. You literally said Trump now has experience with having Coronavirus, and Biden doesn't have that. Some comments are so idiotic they can't be walked back with a leash.

According to a Reuters/Ipsos poll, 65% of Americans feel that had Trump taken COVID-19 seriously, he wouldn't be infected himself. #ncpol #COVID19https://t.co/EpHQmzNVXk

Still not gonna get excited. But that's pretty substantial.

Republican Representatives Josh Dobson and John Torbett are using state funds as a piggy bank while at the same time paying themselves back with campaign funds, ethics complaints filed Monday alleges. #ncpol https://t.co/4jii05G6Da

Gee, it must be a white male thing. Apparently a toxic level of masculinity is still leaking into our groundwater.

On that depressing note, here's your Onion:
