One thing about working on civil discourse? You get to talk a lot about civil discourse!
It was great to join @NewFrameInc and @skydiving11 to talk about the faculty task force report and the UNC System's Common Ground Collaborative. open.spotify.com/episode/2BU…

For the past couple days, North Carolina’s coast has been firing with perfect, world-class waves worthy of Costa Rica, Hawaii, or Australia. 🌊🏄♂️
Check out the epic surfing action at Wrightsville Beach yesterday!

From the Blue Ridge Parkway to hitting the slopes at Cataloochee Ski Area and shopping at local businesses, Haywood County has a lot to offer for tourists as it grows.

From Mount Airy to Hatteras Island, nearly 1,000 cyclists will cover 500 miles during @CycleNC’s Mountains to Coast Ride, showcasing our state’s diverse communities, culture, food, and hospitality along the way.

Always enjoy joining the Do Politics Better podcast. Extra fun conversation this week with @NewFrameInc and @WebbStevenB.

@knreynolds04 is a Democratic consultant. @WebbStevenB lobbies for the NC Home Builders Association.
They disagree on plenty of #NCPOL issues. But they also agree on a lot, including the fact that they’re close friends and plan to stay that way.
Come for a conversation that reaches back to the days of Sens. Basnight, Rand and Apodaca — and brings us all the way back to this election.
Stay for a master class in how to #DoPoliticsBetter.

Always a good time sitting down with @NewFrameInc and @skydiving11. Best long-form podcast in the #ncpol world.
Start your post #LaborDay week with the #DoPoliticsBetter and @NCDOL Commissioner @LukeFarleyNC.
@skydiving11 & I talk to the first-term Republican about his impressive ‘24 win, his policy initiatives winning accolades from unusual corners of #ncpol, meeting @Pontifex, and much more.

Today, I announced a historic win for workers--a record $3.7 million recovered for North Carolinians who've been the victim of wage theft. Workers have a God-given right to be paid every penny they've been promised--and I'll keep fighting for them.🧵

Everyone please join me in wishing a happy birthday to my friend and colleague who gets crazier year after year. Hbd @NewFrameInc!

We also discuss:
• The 2026 legislative short session
• The state budget
• Education & hemp policy
• The 2026 elections
Plus, @skydiving11 and I break down the latest #NCPOL news—from election legislation and judicial fundraising to Michael Whatley’s ad reservations and more.

Rep @sarahcrawfordnc talks about her service in the House after a term in the Senate. The Dem has also found a sweet spot for getting legislation moving and she shares the formula.
Plus @skydiving11 & I unpack a week of #ncpol, including what next week could look like in the #ncga.

Appreciated the opportunity to share more about the @NCGOP, our conservative #ncjudges, and our efforts this week on the #DoPoliticsBetter podcast.
Thanks for having me!

#ncpol operatives are often powered by nicotine, caffeine, paranoia, and spite. Not @ZacharyAlmondNC, @NCGOP’s Executive Director. He’s powered by something much simpler: a genuine love of politics.
Plus @skydiving11 & I catch you up on #ncpol happenings.
Brian Lewis retweeted
We predict Governor Stein signs the budget into law, but hey, it's #ncpol so anything can happen.
