Heartbreaking. Asheville is such a lovely place. 😢
#NorthCarolina#Election2024#Politics I visited North Carolina this past week. The Trump TV ads attacking Harris are shown frequently, and they are thoroughly disgusting. I suspect Trump is running same ads in every swing state.
#Theocracy#Evangelicals#Democracy#ChristianNationalists#Election2024#Politics#GOP#Republicans#Trump#MAGA#Democracy#Trumpism “There are White evangelicals who will utilize the gospel and twist it in a way that works to their advantage and gives them a way to support Trump”
Why battleground North Carolina will be ‘ground zero for a faith war.’
#Harris-Walz#Harris2024#Election2024 "It’s a strategy rooted in decades of civil rights activism, in which joy, particularly Black joy, is used as an instrument for political change. Joy can be much more transformative than lecturing or scolding, a lesson that Democrats are learning to embrace."
Liberals love it; conservatives hate it. But joy is a strategy rooted in decades of civil rights activism.
#Election2024#Politics#GOP#Republicans#Trump#MAGA#Democracy#Trumpism#Ohio#JDVance "Mr. Trump and Mr. Vance hope to make every town Springfield, where the angry are emboldened by lies and the people they seek to punish live in fear."
An Ohio city that once welcomed immigrants has been changed by the campaign — and not for the better.
#Education#Politics#Election2024 "Public education — and then college — were my tickets out of poverty, just as they were for Mr. Vance. I became a first-generation college student courtesy of federally funded Pell Grants, which covered the entirety of my four-year state-college degree."
The vice-presidential nominee should be thinking of how to extend a ladder to those he left behind, not how to pull it up behind him.
#GlobalWarming#Climate#ClimateChange#Nature#Environment#Politics#Hurricane#Helene "Floodwaters submerged a hospital in Tennessee so quickly that more than 50 patients had to be rescued from the roof via helicopter." The future of Global Warming is here, now.
The storm did widespread damage inland.
