A father’s love for his daughter never ends, even when her time here does. There are no words to describe the heartbreak of losing a child or the emptiness that lasts a lifetime. The years may pass, but the love, the memories, and the longing to have her here with us never fade. If you are able, please consider making a donation to support us as we walk to honor Autumn this Saturday. These donations, no matter how small, help fund life-saving research, suicide prevention education, and support for families who know the unimaginable heartbreak of losing someone they love. Autumn will always be my daughter, our heroic archer. She will always be loved and always be a part of everything I do. afspwalks.donordrive.com/tea…

And @RoyCooperNC would rather all those domestic-abusers/future-murderers be let out of prison early rather than serve their full prison sentence and risk getting COVID. #ncpol #ncsen

Dang. I mean DANG! I know I’m too cynical, but if these 2 lovebirds couldn’t make it, is True Love even possible anymore in this day & age? On an unrelated note, if it really was almost a year ago, I’d love to have the number for whichever lawyer negotiated that NDA.

I disagree. @NCDemParty folks should be overconfident. But if not and concerned about Early Voting as per @JoshStein_ counsel, make sure they get out and vote on Nov. 4! Vote at noon on Nov. 4 to maximize your vote’s impact! #ncpol
Vibes run on lagging data - Democrats shouldn't be overly confident

In defense, local news, many of which are making more money than ever before thx to NC being a battleground state. Their news divisions are loss leaders for the corporate overlords. So, while they make more money, they can’t afford weekend news coverage. #ncpol 🙄
Pro tip to politicians, businesses and others who want the news media to come to your event: Provide at least 24 hours of notice at a bare minimum Two to four business days is better Otherwise, media that might go to your event may otherwise be committed to other events #ncpol

🚨Pay Attention, NC🚨 Meet Jessica Bichler, Democratic candidate for NC Senate District 7. Bichler fussed about an ad depicting her as bonkers for her extreme views—defunding the police, releasing criminals, and free healthcare for illegals—she even sent a cease-and-desist letter over it. But I got my hands on her dissertation. Her own words show the ad's heart was true. 🧵

Great writeup and recommendations here for #ncpol Thanks for sharing, Brian.
Kratom is sold at gas stations, yet federal data tie it to more than 5,200 overdose deaths from 2020 to 2024. One of its compounds can be 13 times stronger than morphine. States do not need to wait on Washington to ban it, writes Kevin Sabet. city-journal.org/article/kra…

So in other words, the story about @SusieWiles was completely made up. Nice to see a correction…
Wiles ‘offered positive reinforcement’ for press secretary’s Fox News interview ahead of her exit, but had no direct role in setting it up. Note: This replaces an earlier post that mischaracterized Wiles’ role in connection with the interview. politi.co/3Wp30Md

Wonderful to catch up with Courtney Felts @USChamber bus touring universities ! They came to @SMU to promote free enterprise ! @CityOfDallas @KBHCCDallas

Democrat Jamie Ager (NC-11) hosted the drag queen barn dance featuring Sister Dominatrix and Sister Helen Holy in his barn with kids. Last month, Ager wrote a check to Blue Ridge Pride whose family-friendly festival featured Divine Hullern and Will Pounder. Jenny Ager talks like you and me on TV, but he's dancing with they/them.

In a movie full of great lines, Tom Skerritt's advice to Tom Cruise in Top Gun was the apex: "The simple fact is you feel responsible for Goose and you have a confidence problem. Now I'm not gonna sit here and blow sunshine up your ass, Lieutenant. A good pilot is compelled to evaluate what's happened, so he can apply what he's learned. Up there, we gotta push it. That's our job." R.I. P. , Viper. nytimes.com/2026/10/22/arts/…

Final reflections on this embarrassing ordeal. We now have clear, documented evidence of an @TheAssemblyNC reporter obtaining, misrepresenting and weaponizing voter-registration information to devalue a fellow journalist’s work. Is that practice used on readers? Contributors? Subjects of his reporting? No one should be devalued based on this information. But now we see that irrefutably clear methodological partisan bias has been exposed coming from the reporter. The NCSBE lookup requires entering a name to retrieve a record. He says someone supplied the screenshot. He still chose to publish it as evidence *against* her, and it belonged to someone else. The source excuse is meaningless. That is an extraordinary failure of professional judgment. In trying to undermine her credibility, he documented why his own fairness and impartiality deserve scrutiny. That's not within the standards of The Assembly or many other NC reporters, and should be called out. #ncpol

Welp…other than their obvious partisan bias, looks like we now know why @NCCapitol & @WRAL has been so hard on @ncgop public servants who pushed for passage of Iryna’s Law…#ncpol #ncsen
Senior investigative producer at WRAL faces charges of felony stalking and violating a domestic violence protective order. He is being held without bond under North Carolina’s new Iryna’s Law. The latest from Autumn Coleman and @SolomonLexiB. newsobserver.com/news/local/…

But the [maybe timely-to-other-news-today] #ncpol rumor mill is that @NCCapitol has some relatively recent experience hushing up problems via NDAs?

In defense of their “anonymous” reporter, if I worked for @TheAssemblyNC, I would assume my salary was predicated on partisan, biased reporting attacking Republicans & further attacking any #ncpol reporter who dared to question the mental or physical fitness of Dem candidates.
The Assembly's editors are aware of tweets from our reporter that violate our social media policy. These tweets did not meet our organizational standards and are being addressed internally.

My Dad was dying. I asked @wolfpackclub if Amato could call Dad. He did, & it was a special moment. After Dad passed, I ran into Amato & thanked him for the call. He remembered it, got teary & we sat there hugging. THAT is who coach was. He loved people, like V. #GoPack 😔
