Tariffs up 50%. Stocks down 5%.

You know what hasn’t changed?

What benching 225 for reps feels like.

Time to visit the church of iron boys.

@NCLeague will continue to work closely with State Treasurer Briner and his team to make sure small communities in WNC come back stronger. This program is a huge step forward in the ongoing recovery. #ncpol

[NC Department of State Treasurer @NCTreasurer]

"[DST] has never been in the lending business, so we developed this from a standing start. We expect the first of these loans to be issued by the end of February, and we’re happy that we can play a small part in this recovery,” Treasurer Brad Briner told the COS. @NCLeague @NCACC

This isn’t about politics—it’s personal. Time to secure the border, once and for all.

Can’t wait to embark on some needless travel this evening. Nothing better than driving on empty roads in Johnston County, we don’t get much of that anymore…

[Derrick Applewhite Jr. @DApplewhiteJr]

Reminding Ohio that North Carolina is First in Flight… 🎶 It’s the most wonderful time of the year! 🎶

[Senator Ted Budd @SenTedBuddNC]

Today, I met with the @NCLeague and @NCACC to hear more about the needs of #WNC and develop a structured process to collect and share information with state and federal leaders.

As Congress considers a disaster aid package, we are listening to impacted communities, and we remain committed to getting WNC the resources they urgently need as quickly as possible.

[Derrick Applewhite Jr. @DApplewhiteJr]

Nothing makes me happier than to see snow at Beech Mountain. Small victory for the tourism industry, be sure to get out west this winter! WNC is going to come back better than ever.
