I'd been hearing rumors about this for 8 days now — remember, Edwards has already been sanctioned by the House Ethics Committee for abusing his communications privileges in 2024. #ncpol #WNC #election2026 axios.com/2026/04/30/chuck-e…

Republican leadership just released their plan to redraw North Carolina’s Congressional maps. They are shamefully abusing their power to take away yours. Public comment period is open. Let them know what you think⬇️

BREAKING: Jeff Bezos–backed Wildtype just got FDA approval to sell lab-grown salmon, after the agency skipped independent testing and animal trials, rubber-stamping it as “safe” based solely on the company’s own data. Corporate science just wrote its own permission slip.

My name is Jamie Ager. I'm a father, husband, farmer, and proud son of Western NC. And I figured, if I'm gonna run for Congress, I should introduce myself and tell you why I'm running. #ncpol #wnc #nc11

SOUND ON. You’re hearing the first howl of a dire wolf in over 10,000 years. Meet Romulus and Remus—the world’s first de-extinct animals, born on October 1, 2024. The dire wolf has been extinct for over 10,000 years. These two wolves were brought back from extinction using genetic edits derived from a complete dire wolf genome, meticulously reconstructed by Colossal from ancient DNA found in fossils dating back 11,500 and 72,000 years. This moment marks not only a milestone for us as a company but also a leap forward for science, conservation, and humanity. From the beginning, our goal has been clear: “To revolutionize history and be the first company to use CRISPR technology successfully in the de-extinction of previously lost species.” By achieving this, we continue to push forward our broader mission on—accepting humanity’s duty to restore Earth to a healthier state. But this isn’t just our moment—it’s one for science, our planet, and humankind. All of which we love and are passionate about. Now, close your eyes and listen to that howl once more. Think about what this means for all of us.

Trump & Russia have come to an agreement on how to loot Ukraine. They want to force Ukraine into a ceasefire so Russia can regroup its troops for a 2nd invasion, new elections so the US /Russia can try to install a puppet government, and an agreement over Ukraine’s resources.

Despicable. As families grieve, Trump should be leading, not lying. We put safety first, drove down close calls, grew Air Traffic Control, and had zero commercial airline crash fatalities out of millions of flights on our watch. President Trump now oversees the military and the FAA. One of his first acts was to fire and suspend some of the key personnel who helped keep our skies safe. Time for the President to show actual leadership and explain what he will do to prevent this from happening again.

My sister lives in Bakersville, in the Western North Carolina mountains. Her home, her car and most of the town were essentially destroyed by Hurricane Helene. She figured out a way to vote for Kamala Harris in NC today. I am so proud of her.

I just spent the day meeting with small business owners in Lansing and Boone. Folks have incurred major losses and need funds now. I urge Congress to appropriate adequate SBA funding immediately. To fail to do so would be irresponsible and heartless. wunc.org/2024-10-16/small-bu…

Get to work Capitol Hill. WNC is hurting…
Just received notice from the @SBAgov that they have run out of funds for Disaster Relief Loans until Congress can appropriate more funding. We need help and need you to move faster! #HurricaneHelene #HurricaneRelief
