Latest Polls (view all)

Under the cover of Covid, and now in the shadow of the infamous Election Irregularities of that fated 2020 presidential election, with current emerging alleged election fraud in Nevada and Pennsylvania inconveniently slipping into the public discourse, there is proved a colluded ongoing Election Interference in the nomination of the Republican candidate, the likes of which has never occurred in our Constitutional Republic's history, albeit, the question remains: Do you support the plain-sight Election Interference of the Democratic Socialist party, employing its minions in their Propagandistic Media, and their Two Tiered Justice System?

98.94% No, I do not support Election Interference; I am a patriot unto our Constitution.

1.06% Yes, I do support Election Interference; the alternative, Donald Trump, to this mentally diminished president is far worse.

0% "What, me worry" if elections are rigged?

Senate Budget Proposal Emphasizes Income Tax Cuts, Workforce Training, New Reserves

Policy Changes

Raise the mandatory retirement age for appellate judges.
Prohibit discrimination or retaliation against a state employee or potential state employee for refusing to provide proof of a Covid-19 vaccination.
Limit state funding for abortions. State funds are already prohibited from being used to support abortion except if the life of the mother is at risk or in cases of rape or incest. With the Senate proposal, no state funds could be used to renew or extend contracts with any provider that performs abortions.
Prohibit cap-and-trade requirements for carbon dioxide emissions.
Put into effect a prohibition on state or regional emissions standards for new motor vehicles.

Corporate Welfare and Pork Spending

Add $10 million to the Economic Development Project Reserve, along with $500 million to the Regional Economic Development Reserve, over two years. Putting funds into these separate reserves allows for future politically favored local projects to be funded without transparency. These are smaller funding additions than the House proposed to send to the reserves.
Send $8 million over the biennium to the World University Games Reserve for the 2029 World University Games.
Spend $10 million on the Megasite Readiness Program. Among other things, this budget would expand the program to include sites smaller than 1,000 acres that are suited for industrial development. A grant program would be established to assist local governments in the acquisition of a newly identified or existing megasite.
Add dozens of pork spending projects, including sending $692,500 to the Museum of Natural Sciences to staff the dueling dinosaurs exhibit, $300,000 to the NC Sports Hall of Fame, and over $1 million to the USS North Carolina Battleship Commission's Living with Water Project.
