Per @PunchbowlNews, CLF and MAGA groups are officially ABANDONING #FL25 and #NC11
Republicans have now triaged TEN DISTRICTS over the last week ⤵️
📺 WATCH: North Carolina Court of Appeals Judge Toby Hampson released the first ad of his reelection campaign today.
Seriously — who is advising this and how much are they paying you?
Democratic advisers are warning their candidates not to go too hard at AI dlvr.it/TVX4Fs
We are incredibly lucky to have an Attorney General who cares and will hold corporations accountable for their actions

Today we’re announcing the largest environmental damage payment in North Carolina history.
Chemours and DuPont are responsible for massive PFAS contamination of our water, especially in eastern NC.
This settlement is worth nearly $600m, with most funds going directly to local communities.
It was crucial that we got real money for our state, because the EPA completely failed. It gave these companies a slap on the wrist without even consulting us.
We just got North Carolina at least 20x what the EPA got for us.
This new money is in addition to the $1.2b Chemours has been required to spend by the previous court order to clean up their mess, but now that cleanup effort must also be financially guaranteed by DuPont - a key win to ensure the cleanup work continues.
My thanks to @NCDEQ for their partnership and dedication to clean water for our state.

Using Helene recovery as a backdrop for your campaign while we've been suffering here in Western NC for a year and a half isn't fooling anyone.
Republicans keep bragging about a few million here and there, meanwhile businesses are closed and folks are still living in campers.
Attacking political operatives as a campaign strategy might be the least productive thing you can do.
Some of y'all need to log off and talk to average people. Twitter will never be real life.
Aron was a good friend, a great man, and loved North Carolina with every ounce of his being. I'll always cherish our friendship and the memories we made together. Rest easy, my friend. You will be deeply missed.
Sometimes you just end up one play short. I'm already looking forward to next season #KeepPounding
Democrats need to run strong candidates with deep local roots in every district.
Message on what actually matters to voters there.
Build resources to meaningfully compete.
We must play ball *to win* this year — we have way too good of an opportunity to waste.
To my fellow NC Democrats:
Please know that Democratic candidates do not have to collect signatures to be on the ballot.
In 2026, nearly every seat will be competitive.
But there are several spoiler campaigns running that are asking folks to sign petitions.
Don't fall for it.
Not only was it a major night for Democrats nationally, but also in local elections across North Carolina.
You won't read about about these in the headlines tomorrow, but NC Dems are continuing to lay impressive groundwork — building the bench and racking up wins.
Redistricting is just *another* example of why state legislative seats are so important.
Despite Congressional races getting 10x the attention and funding, they are much more influenced by the leaders being elected further down the ballot.
This is just the latest effort in a series of attempts to steal elections in North Carolina — Republicans will stop at nothing to silence the voters and keep their power.
If you stand with our democracy and the people of NC, please support the @NCDemParty today.
Earlier today @NCSpeakerHall and I agreed to return to Raleigh to back up @RealDonaldTrump by redrawing our Congressional map in North Carolina to block blue state Democrats like @CAgovernor who want to take control of Congress from Republicans. #ncpol bergerpress.medium.com/gener…
