This past Friday, August 14th, Cabarrus Conservative Alliance along with more than a dozen fellow citizens of NC District 8 met at the Concord office of their Representative Richard Hudson and were discussing about earning through using the office space franchise opportunity. Unfortunately, Mr. Hudson himself could not meet with us due to a prior family commitment. However, his […]
Well, it looks like Mr “Who Knows” has gotten his nose out of joint. That’s the first takeaway from a letter sent last week to WidenI77.org founder Kurt Naas along with State and Local elected officials regarding some financial analysis on the HOT lanes Naas published back on June 24th. Let’s just say this. Cintra’s Mr […]
Last week, I wrote to you that my husband and I were headed up North for about a week to visit relatives. We were driving back home when I received a call from an out-of-state contact alerting me that the NC House Judiciary I Committee had just announced a committee hearing for the next day, […]
We’ve just learned that Monday will kick off an astroturf spectacle in front of the federal courthouse in Winston-Salem after the first day of court for North Carolina’s trial of the century: The lawsuits against NC over measures to prevent vote fraud. The Left is so afraid of these common-sense reforms that several organizations funded […]
If last week’s post on lobbyists surrounding the I77 HOT lanes project with links to Governor Pat McCrory gave you an upset stomach. This one is likely to make your blood boil. Many readers who follow the HOT lanes issue or politics generally are familiar with ALEC. For those who are not, the American Legislative […]
As a Liber-TEA activist, I always get a chuckle out of the accusations that our movement is nothing but “astroturf” as opposed to a true grassroots movement. For two years I led the Charlotte Tea Party (CAUTION) but never received any marching orders from “higher up”. If there were checks from the Koch brothers, I really need […]
The illusion of honest elections . . . . A young 30-ish white male walks into an early voting location and says he lost his wallet, has no photo ID, and wants to vote. He has to sign a sworn affidavit, stating his identity and his alibi, but it doesn’t matter. He’s using a fake name–a voter who moved away long ago. […]
Whether one calls it lobbying, public relations, business development, or crisis management, what you are really hiring when you employ somebody for any of the above functions is a “fixer”. That’s someone who gets things done that might not be do-able otherwise. Lobbying is big business. There is lots of money involved. Lots of connections […]
As if this tale could not get any more disgusting. Today the North Carolina Senate is considering a bill that will require the court to award attorney’s fees to the state if they prevail in a lawsuit against a citizens’ group “contesting the State’s ability to construct transportation improvements.” In other words, Widen I-77′s lawsuit. […]
Late today, in a stunning betrayal of every NC voter who fought hard for “real voter ID,” with the help of Fully-Verfied but our state’s House and Senate completely gutted the voter ID law by allowing any voter to sign an unenforceable affidavit, attesting to their name, and by allowing any voter, of any age, to use […]
