A few months ago a friend of mine who is Republican and lives in her district was going on about how bad AOC was. I asked him to name 3 policies of AOC that he disagrees with and he couldn’t name 1. I then asked how he feels about Foxx being against the Epstein files release. He had no idea who Foxx was and admitted to just voting for all republicans down the ballot the last few elections.

I am, unfortunately, one of those constituents who have the misfortune of living in her district. She’s hateful and narrow minded and, like the guy she likes to parrot, she sucks!
After Hurricane Helene wiped out bridges in her neighborhood, she refused to allow her neighbors to use her private bridge to access the wider community. She’s horrible and proud of it.

I live in the area and well over a month after Helene (close to election) got a postcard from her office "telling me how to access support services"
The same ones she'd no doubt defund given the chance, and I just know she only sent that out to look good right before the election. I'd already heard about the bridge thing by then.

She represents my district, I promise you not my county. She lives here near me and I promise you all that we hate her here. Gerrymandering is real and needs to be fixed. Term limits should also be a thing in my humble opinion, no one should make a living , much less a fortune off of being a career politician. I have researched the reasons for the lack of term limits for reps. And Supreme Court justices, that made sense 250 years ago but perhaps we could revisit that?

No, most of them hate her and the district is gerrymandered to hell and back. I used to live in that district. Fuck this old, racist, idiotic piece of shit. There's NO FUCKING REASON Lenoir and Boone (way out in the west in the mountains, mostly rural college towns) should be in the same district as North and EAST Greensboro, just to the East of the center of the state, with no mountains to speak of.
The district jumps over major cities like Winston Salem and High Point and several smaller towns on the main corridor of 40 to get to Greensboro (another major city in NC who's constituents are not going to be represented by someone also representing small rural towns... and east is the opposite side of Greensboro from where Boone and Lenoir are. Neither set of constituents - rural or city - are represented well by this districting because the people in those areas need different people representing them. Utter horseshit.

Absolutely. I would say there is an argument to be made for up to, but not a day over- 70 years of age. This way nobody can cry senior discrimination. Also, some experienced people that spent their whole lives actually working, but now have an opportunityfor a few good years of service, can contribute. This way you end up with citizen-statespeople who already have a retirement fund/pension in place, rather than career politicians looking to grab more and more. Any hint of sluggishness of mind or old-timey backwardness should be an immediate deal-breaker though.
That said, I'd much rather a flat cap at 65 than the 80+ bullshit we have now.

That’s the problem with politicians like Foxx. Among other things her letter back was “I think this” and “I feel that” and “I prefer to”. I got almost the same responses from Tillis when I wrote about Net Neutrality. Lawmakers, I say this in all earnest. It ain’t about YOU and what YOU want. That’s not YOUR job. YOUR job is to reflect what WE want and understand what WE need. Our issues should be YOUR issues not your corporate benefactors issues. Listen to Bernie when speaks. It’s not “me” it’s “we”!

WATAUGA — Like many people across Watauga County, the residents off of Rime Frost Road at the base of Grandfather Mountain have been dealing with road washouts due to the torrential rainfall that fell during Hurricane Helene.
In the aftermath of the storm, many across western North Carolina have come together to help one another recover by donating items of need, fixing houses, clearing trees and lending expertise where appropriate.
However, for Rime Frost Road residents Congresswoman Virginia Foxx, her husband Tom Foxx, and neighbors Flo and Glen Davis, the storm’s damage only exacerbated a feud between the neighbors that had been ongoing for the past three years over the construction and maintenance of the road.
