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?
98.88% No, I do not support Election Interference; I am a patriot unto our Constitution.
1.12% 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?

The commission that's charged with investigating a replacement for Common Core in North Carolina has a money problem. It doesn't have any. When a bill passed the General Assembly setting up the Academic Standards Review Commission, lawmakers left a funding source out of the legislation.

Welcome back! I trust everyone had a good summer. We all need breaks and I hope you had a chance to unplug. You say that you were following Common Core until school let out. And now, well, you have no idea what's happened these last few months. No problem. It's time for a quick recap.
