Continental Congress HAS SIGNED A DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE! 

The UNITED STATES are OFFICIALLY INDEPENDENT from BRITAIN.

LIBERTY BELLS ring out throughout Philadelphia; the streets ERUPT IN ECSTASY.

@ItsJustRaleigh "Red ink is particularly associated with persistent itching, swelling, and granulomas…"

Bad news for all the red-team 'if we win the championship I'll get a tat pledges'.

Hurricane fans beware. State fans should be ok.

The Miami Marlins are searching for the dog that went viral after watching another pup enjoy a hot dog during Monday’s game. The team has posted a "wanted" flyer and is promising the overlooked pooch a dream day at the ballpark.

Jarvy spraying the crowd with champagne then immediately stopping so he doesn't spray a baby like "oops my apologies ma'am" is so funny to me idek 😆

And then there were two. Team flags are lowered when they get eliminated in Omaha at the #CWS. @DiamondHeels and Oklahoma are the last two at the top of the flagpole.

𝗕𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗯𝗮𝗹𝗹, 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗿, has brought together all levels of NC government, from both sides of the aisle, in support of MLB in Raleigh.

With a public/private partnership (mandatory if you're going to land an MLB expansion franchise) closing in, North Carolina's bid will check EVERY box needed.

✅ Billionaire investor
✅ Government support
✅ Land for a stadium
✅ A viable, growing market
✅ Community Support

No other market has what we do.

Here are some quotes from the past two days from NC’s governor, the President Pro Tempore of the NC Senate, Raleigh’s mayor, and the NC state treasurer.

Good morning. North Carolina has more Stanley cups in this century than Canada.

[Drew Elliot @jdelliot]

@HUCosell Here it is from my daughter's view 😀

[Josh Graham @JoshGrahamShow]

The Hurricanes are one win away from winning the STANLEY CUP.

So there’s only one thing to do.

PLAY THAT DAMN SONG. #SoundTheSiren

@ItsJustRaleigh Most are magnets, meant to be on only when the kid is driving (that's how I did it with my kids). But since so many people leave them on all the time, the effectiveness is diluted.

Collective action problem.

Generosity is not about waiting until we have excess. It begins with offering what we already have, right where we are.

It’s personal news time: My nearly 33-year run at The Associated Press has come to an end. Like dozens of colleagues in the company, I accepted a buyout. My last day was Thursday. (1/6)
