North Carolina's "totally not a teacher's union" .@North Carolina Association of Educators knocked on my door yesterday looking for support and to get petition signatures. 🧵 #NCPOL #NCED

One of the things that hurts @North Carolina Association of Educators (aside from the whole totally not a teacher's union stuff) is their leadership for over a decade has partnered with people like William Barber to attack Republicans and Republican policies. #NCPOL #NCED
They also can't ever give specifics of what they want. For over a decade, it's just wanting more money and less responsibility. #NCPOL #NCED
Being captured by Democrat politics to the extent you're using the party's preferred data tools to ostensibly work for a non-partisan objective? No, you're telling on yourself. #NCPOL #NCED
Here's where the petition actually goes: NGP VAN. #NCPOL #NCED
Here's your introduction to NGP VAN's website: "NGP VAN is the leading technology provider to Democratic and progressive political campaigns and organizations, nonprofits, municipalities, and other groups." #NCPOL #NCED
So, in addition to ignoring the record funding the Republican-led General Assembly has spent on NC education, the "totally not a teacher's union" is also using the Democrats' campaign tech to list build. Let's see if the legacy NC media will cover this story. #NCPOL #NCED
