When you go out for seafood, do you want fresh local seafood you can trust or do you want shrimp raised on a farm in China under unknown conditions? I think most of us would rather have the fresh local seafood. Unfortunately a group of despicable RINOs led by Sen. Bill Rabon and greenlighted by Senate bully-boy boss Phil Berger are trying to cut off our fresh local seafood by banning shrimp trawling in the sounds of eastern North Carolina, where most of our local seafood comes from. They are doing this at the behest of a radical leftwing environmental organization, the CCA.
Most appalling is the dirty power politics they are using to try to ram this through. Instead of introducing a bill months ago where it could work through the legislative process and both sides could be heard, that used a last minute amendment in committee and took it straight to the floor, where nobody had an opportunity to be heard. This dirty legislative process is condemned in the state Republican platform, but these despicable Undocumented Democrats Rabon and Berger engaged in it against the interests of our NC seafood industry and seafood lovers.
Now it is up to the House to stop this tyrannical madness of Berger and Rabon.
Berger used exactly the same tactics to ram through at the last minute a total rewrite of HB951 to give us NC's Green New Deal. Berger and Rabon are Biden "Republicans".
Fortunately, it is believed that Rabon may not run again. Good riddance to a low life politician. Berger is being challenged in his primary by Rockingham County Sheriff Sam Page, and the polls show Page 15 points ahead. Hopefully we will see Berger go down to a well deserved primary defeat, too.
With "Republicans" like Bill Rabon and Phil Berger, who even needs Democrats? Phil Berger is so bad that he almost makes one wish we had Marc Basnight back. Basnight would not have done this dirty dirty trick to our local seafood industry.

Browny, the worst thing is that $4 million is probably just a pass through from our main seafood competitor, Communist China. I think Berger is bought and paid for by the ChiComs. This is the second time he has helped gut American business in a way that benefits Chinese business.

I cant prove the amt but i surley do not question it. That being that 4 mil from the CCA was provided to one of its most elite who passed it on to Berger. 4 mil divided by 44 is 90,909. Hummmmm??????

The despicable power play used by Rabon and Berger to jam this through the legislature is a gross violation of the NC Republican Party platform, which opposes these underhanded and arrogant tactics. Legislation should go through a process of deliberation where both sides have the opportunity to present arguments in committee and to legislators. A quick amendment in committee and then straight to the floor process is an insult to North Carolinians and should not be tolerated.

This is just another example of how Phil Berger is in the hip pocket of Red China and doing their dirty work to destroy American business and open the door for Chinese competitors. By destroying our seafood industry, he helps China's dominance with its farm raised seafood, which is often of questionable quality.
"China Phil" did the same thing with the NC Green New Deal, HB951, where he is pushing types of energy heavily dominated by Red China - wind and solar - and trying to destroy American energy like coal and gas. Phil Berger is an enemy and a traitor to America. |

Sell out politicians like Phil Berger and all those that follow him are enemies of eastern counties need to be treated as such. The NCGOP continues to be out to lunch and should not expect our support. Think I'll write a check to Sam Page.

Get him gone! Phil Berger is one of the most dastardly liberals in Raleigh, a Democrat in Drag.
