Comments | Eastern NC Now

North Carolina has had the same problem with sellout liberal "leadership" in the legislature, Timmy Moore in the House and Phil Berger in the Senate, who have pushed through the key items in Roy Cooper's liberal agenda. They are no better than Democrats and indeed probably worse than Phelan in Texas.

Now, Timmy Moore is moving on to become a sellout liberal in Congress. Good riddance in Raleigh, but I cringe at the thought of that sleaze bag in Washington, DC. Unfortunately, the special interest Republicans now have a new sellout liberal to replace Moore doing the same things Moore did. The only game in town to stop him is Keith Kidwell's bid for the Speakership.

There is no hope of getting any decent leadership in the Senate. Correupt casino man Berger will continue with no effective conservative resistance to his sellout liberalism. We had a chance to do something about that in our senate primary but voters elsewhere in the district let us down by not seeing through the huge corrupt expenditure of money.

Saddest case of ‘whataboutism” ever!

You hit the nail on the head, Buzz. We need legislators who are OUR representatives to Raleigh, like the way Keith Kidwell serves, NOT Raleigh's representatives to us, which is the mentality of Brinson. And by "Raleigh" both Brinson talking to you, and my comment here means the smoke filled room power brokers in Raleigh. Those power brokers don't like representatives of the people like Kidwell and Speciale standing up for the folks back home. They would rather have go along / get along pushovers like Brinson. When I spent five years working the legislature as a political appointee in the Martin administration, I saw Brinson's type in that body but they were not as numerous then as they are today. And Berger is indeed Basnight 2.0 with a little Liston Ramsey thrown in.

What is really sad is what they have done to Mark Robinson, who IMHO was sincere when he went to Raleigh, but has been so cowed by the Bergerites, he now seems afraid of his own shadow in addressing major issues, including cowering in the corner and keeping his mouth shut when Berger announced he was killing Conatitutional Carry. Mark made his reputation on gun rights, so why is he even afraid to stand up to Berger on that? Sad.

Holly, I can't believe I've never seen this...
Fantastic read. He was my friend, and sole reason I joined the USAF. I visited him last week, on the anniversary of that awful day. I kinda shook his hand, and saluted...

Good for Louisiana and South Carolina. BUt for us here in NC, that turd Phil Berger strikes again! And the jackass has just bought our state senate seat, on top of that. Beaufort County voters were smart enough to avoid his little sock puppet Brinson, but not so elsewhere in the district apparently. Well, now, for the next two years, we are stuck with a yes-man for a slimeball.

They try to bring cases against Trump in places with politicized jury pools that are anti-Trump and judges on the bench who are partisan leftwing Democrats. These are deliberately stage managed as Stalin SHow Trials. The documents case they got stuck on because they had to bring it in Florida where Trump had a shot at a fair judge and jury pool, the only one of the cases where he has a fair fight. Failure to change venue in the other cases shows that our court system's integrity is going downhill fast.

Biden and all others in his regime connected to this violation of our immigration laws should be indicted and prosecuted for treason.

Dude, most of the Jan 6 crowd couldn’t spell cat if you spotted them the c and the t.

Maybe they can get a GED in prison?

Compare the J6 rioters to the BLM / ANTIFA insurrectionists the summer before. Although the leftwing media talked about the BLM / ANTIFA insurrection as being "mostly peaceful" while buildings burned in the background, that term applied more appropriately to the J6 riot. Indeed, there is video of an identified ANTIFA instigator at J6 repeatedly yelling "burn it down" referring to the Capitol building, none of the Trump supporter made any effort to do that. The BLM / ANTIFA insurrections were constantly burning buildings and trying to burn buildings. The J6 rioters were unarmed and did not injure anyone. The BLM / ANTIFA insurrectionists were often armed and injured scores of police and killed civlians.

Yes, people of all stripes behave badly at times. However Jan6goons went too far. Good thing they weren’t to bright.
Hang Mike Pence, indeed.

So here is the thing. It’s not about if you agree or disagree. Most of you got what you want. You won’t hear my side calling for the hanging of the judges or the sacking of the court.

You win some you lose some. Those that can lose and keep their dignity, a la orange boy, don’t deserve a seat at the table.

MAGA- sore losers
