I had the honor of meeting Gov Jim Hunt on his farm while doing photos for Lt Gov Rachel Hunt’s campaign. He shook my hand with an iron grip. He was tickled to know my grandfather. Jim Hunt is an NC icon and the state is better off because of him. Rest easy Governor. #ncpol

Why is every time a city (@RaleighGov) decides they want to “update” a service (like paying the water bill) it breaks and fails miserably to deliver. I can’t make an account. What was wrong with the old system? Who got a kickback for this? #raleigh

@TravisFain Matt Mercer is as pathetic as they come. He was during his short time at Chatham News and Record as they ran it into the ground and he is now as the chihuahua barking for the GOP

[Carolina Forward @ForwardCarolina]

In newly released campaign finance reports, we've learned that Duke Energy contributed $100,000 to the effort to overthrow last year's state supreme court election in North Carolina.

And it was completely legal for them to do so, all because a group of lawmakers in our state legislature moved fast to change the law to make it legal.

@10busch @HarrahsVegas I was gonna spend a couple hundred bucks. Ended up spending zero 🤷‍♂️

At @HarrahsVegas looking for $5min tables like I played at lunch. Pit boss says “it’s Friday on the strip” like I’m an idiot - as I look around at half the tables completely empty. And they wonder why Vegas is dying off.
