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?

98.85% No, I do not support Election Interference; I am a patriot unto our Constitution.

1.15% 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?

    Publisher's note: Brant Clifton explains the influence of Republican politicians from the Charlotte area in his "bare knuckles" Conservative online publication known as The Daily Haymaker.

    North Carolina’s financial center (Charlotte) and its center of government (Raleigh) appear to be melding together or merging. We’ve seen it in McClatchy buying both the Charlotte Observer and the Raleigh News & Observer. The same editorial operation services both papers. If you’ve read one paper, you’ve read them both.

    The Queen City’s former mayor is being sworn in as North Carolina’s next governor in January. (The state’s next lieutenant governor, although a Raleigh resident, is the son of former Charlotte mayor and retiring Queen City congresswoman Sue Myrick.) Thom Tillis from Cornelius, in the greater Charlotte area, appears to be running the state House for two more years. Recent nominations for House leadership by the majority Republicans make it clear that the Charlotte area’s hand will be strengthened in the legislature’s lower chamber.

    Edgar Starnes, from Caldwell County (northwest of Charlotte) will be the majority leader. Ruth Samuelson, from Charlotte, will chair the Republican Conference. Mike Hager of Rutherford County (due west of Charlotte), a former Duke Power executive, will be the majority whip. (Wake County’s Paul Stam is the easternmost member of the new House leadership team. He will hold the post of speaker pro tem, which is basically ceremonial.)

    Over in the NC Senate, Charlotte’s Robert Rucho (a Thom Tillis ally) co-chairs the powerful Finance Committee.

    The North Carolina GOP is currently chaired by Robin Hayes of Cabarrus County, also part of the greater Charlotte area. His vice-chair and aspiring successor Wayne King is from Cleveland County (due west of Charlotte).
