Progress on the #xclt trail is stellar. Seamless ride from uptown to SC.
"For most Republicans, Dr King is just the guy who said to forget about skin color; they basically just know one quote of his, out of context, & they repeat it ad nauseam." My commentary, for #MLKDay, on the real MLK vs the 'Santa Clausification' of him:
The @goodreads wrapped for 2022. Another year thankful for @cmlibrary and @CMLibFoundation !
“In an era of increased book banning, library defunding and even bomb threats, it seems that now more than ever I ought to make clear how valuable and central libraries have been to my life and success,” writes @CharlesMBlow. nyti.ms/3U3y9hl
New question for the voter guide: Interest level for riding bikes with constituents (downpour optional) Thanks for sticking it out with us @JeffJacksonNC! #PMTNR

NEW: #CLTCC has voted unanimously to amend City of Charlotte ordinances to include familial status, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, veteran status, pregnancy and natural hairstyle as classes protected against discrimination.

My thoughts about Derek Chauvin’s murder conviction. 👑🙏🏾
VP Kamala Harris visited NC today & made an unexpected stop at the International Civil Rights Center & Museum in Greensboro. She sat at the original counter from the Woolworth’s sit-in of Feb. 1, 1960, which led to a wave of sit-ins nationwide. bit.ly/3alDKeW #ncpol
Touchdown confirmed. The #CountdownToMars is complete, but the mission is just beginning.
Amanda Gorman. What a remarkable talent. That was extraordinary. “It’s not what stands between us, it’s what stands before us.”

All my Raleigh/Durham/Burlington/Greensboro/Charlotte peeps- if you have not ridden the NC trains from Raleigh to Charlotte you are missing out. 👉 huge comfy seats 👉 free WiFi 👉 massive overhead luggage holders One way ticket is $21 ($42 round trip), you can’t drive for less…
NEWS: We just issued a rule that requires airlines to promptly provide passengers with automatic, cash refunds when owed. No more having to request your money back—airlines should automatically do this. thehill.com/business/46166…
Huge change—Airlines operating in the U.S. will soon have to AUTOMATICALLY REFUND you when your flight is cancelled or delayed (3 hours domestic, 6 hours into’l) or bag is lost. Refunds within 7 business days. The new Biden DOT rule starts in 6 months.
Today's new rule makes it easy for passengers to obtain refunds when airlines cancel or significantly change their flights, delay their checked bags, or fail to provide the ancillary services they purchased.
Absolutely worth the 6 hour traffic jam I participated in
Reminder:
Please do not take medical advice from a man who looked directly at a solar eclipse.
Happy #SolarEclipse Day!! #SolarEclipse2024 An eclipse occurs when a much smaller object travels between the viewer and something much larger. For example:
The skyline color meanings are always a big deal to some of your fellow Charlotteans. They bring joy! If you don't like the meaning of the lights on a given night, try to enjoy one of the most colorful, beautiful skylines in the country instead of stealing someone's joy.

Tonight's draw against FC Cincinnati marked the 12th consecutive regular season home game without a loss for @CharlotteFC, which extends their club record and ties Atlanta United for the sixth-longest streak for a club within its first three MLS seasons.
My friend just posted her daughter’s science fair project that got her kicked out of the science fair and I’m ☠️☠️☠️
Pepas at a @CharlotteFC match is a vibe 🎶
Kudos to @SawreyforNC. He becomes the first Republican state lawmaker in NC to provide records to me, responding within 15 minutes of my request today with 42 pages of communications and vowing to share more. #ncpol
