@realclaudetaylor.bsky.social great work, as always. Just a thought, but in my area of NC, the Triangle region, I-40 could use a billboard near Research Triangle Park: www.axios.com/local/raleig...

The Triangle's large research presence makes it vulnerable to NIH cuts

NIH cuts would bring large economic losses to the Triangle

I like Congresswoman Stevens, but Mallory McMorrow is the best candidate.

Wonderful dogs, Governor! I run a mobile dog grooming business here in Raleigh, HydroDog North Raleigh, and would love to earn your business!

Meanwhile, the economy is heading downhill, we are losing more freedoms by the day, and our standing in the world is virtually nonexistent. But let's talk about Trump's diet!

Here in my city of Raleigh, NC, local government has acquired funding for BRT - but they've struggled with finding a vendor to build the project within a specified budget. What would you recommend to rectify this?

It's amazing how the same people who preach "family values" are silent about that. They are also silent about a woman who has made millions off grown men engaging in staged violence & demeaning other women. These folks are anti-family values.

If your father is into Jazz, he'll likely know the name Barry Harris. He was a Jazz piano player from Detriot. Ron Carter, a bassist, is another prominent musician but he's technically from Ferndale.

I want to travel there for the car museums and as a jazz fan, I want to see a concert at Baker's Keyboard Lounge - the oldest continuously operating jazz club in the country.

I like Secretary Buttigieg. He's smart, accomplished, served in uniform, and seems like a nice person. I think Governors Whitmer & Shapiro would be formidable candidates as well.

Here in NC, despite the disappointment (understatement) at the presidential level, we did well at the state level. We've had success in other swing states over the past few years. It's fine to have some DC consultants, but we also need to listen to those with experience speaking to swing voters.

010

Jordan @j92.bsky.social · 16/02/2025

To be clear, we should always be honest with people. If the topic comes up organically, that's one thing. But our main focus in terms of the overall points we articulate should be bread & butter issues in my view.

110

Jordan @j92.bsky.social · 16/02/2025

I agree. This space should be a place where we can discuss things with like-minded people. It's fine to discuss these things with friends and family. My point is, when we communicate with swing voters through door-to-door, calls, and the like, we should focus on other issues.

110

Jordan @j92.bsky.social · 16/02/2025

2/2 they are fine costing us $4 trillion over the next decade to keep the '17 tax scheme permanent. I'm all for deficit reduction; Presidents Bush 41, Clinton, and Obama all reduced the deficit without cutting NIH funding. Trump increased the deficit before, I think he'll do so again.

020

Jordan @j92.bsky.social · 16/02/2025

1/2 While the name change is childish and a bad precedent, I think our main focus should be on other matters that are more pressing. For example, the administration wants to cut funding for medical research. This will hurt clinical trials & other crucial research. NIH gets under $50B/yr, yet...

210

Jordan @j92.bsky.social · 11/02/2025

I agree, and I think there is a lot of misreading of the electorate occurring right now. It feels like 2005 to me, but like you said it's difficult to tell.

000

Jordan @j92.bsky.social · 09/02/2025

Here at home, consider 2004. 43 won a majority of the vote and all of the swing states. In 2005, did anyone really believe the Democrats would win in 2008 while carrying Indiana, North Carolina, Virginia, and Colorado? Doubtful. Much in politics occurs in cycles.

100

Jordan @j92.bsky.social · 09/02/2025

I think the Fed Reserve system could be the model for the federal bureaucracy. While the chair is appointed every 4 years, Fed Governors get 14-year appointments - this takes present politics out of the equation without a lifetime appointment like courts. They recently defied Trump's wishes.

I do remember about 10 yrs ago I went to a Morris Co. Chamber of Commerce event and Sweeney was on a panel. He joked that by his house, the Turnpike only has 4 lanes.

110

Jordan @j92.bsky.social · 03/02/2025

The one thing that could help Sweeney in the primary is he's the only candidate from south Jersey. I do agree he'd be strong in a general. He'd definitely beat Spaedea though I think all of them would.

Jordan @j92.bsky.social · 03/02/2025

Gottheimer sounds like it's the general election already. Baraka will be the choice of progressives. I think Sherrill is the most likely nominee & I agree with you about how she's doing, but there doesn't seem to be anything to change that.

Jordan @j92.bsky.social · 03/02/2025

I tuned in and saw your username in the comments. I can't tell who's winning the debate.

Jordan @j92.bsky.social · 01/02/2025

I agree. As you know, sometimes people have short memories. In this digital age, I think that's become even more true. At one time, people might watch an hour of news a night and read a paper some days. Now, we are all on our phones getting information constantly. It makes '21 seem distant.

000

Jordan @j92.bsky.social · 31/01/2025

It's also worth noting that Trump won 49.8% of the vote. So essentially, everyone who voted for him approves of his performance thus far. That 54% number for Biden was interesting because he only won 51% of the vote.

Jordan @j92.bsky.social · 22/01/2025

I disagree. Inflation is bad for the economy and, therefore, bad for national security. Part of our strength as a country comes from our purchasing power.

010

Jordan @j92.bsky.social · 20/01/2025

I know you are referring to the legal and ethical issues this causes, and I agree. But there is also an economic issue. How will this support of crypto impact the dollar? It's one thing when speculators pour money into it. Now, the POTUS is for it & benefits from the phenomenon.

I think it's great that you post here. You have worked hard and been successful, and you've used your knowledge and resources to help others. Musk and Bezos should take notes.

Jordan @j92.bsky.social · 16/01/2025

I agree. Harry Truman was unpopular during his tenure, but now he's viewed as a good (if not great) president. I think Biden has been excellent on policy, and no serious person can question his character.
