Because I’m not owned by the NRA, I can state the obvious:
There are many gun safety proposals that would save lives and would also be totally compliant with the second amendment.
Refusing to even *hear* those bills is a sign of weakness, not strength.

Dad, Soldier, Attorney General for North Carolina
- I’ve been in Congress for 100 days. Most of the really angry voices here are faking it.
00:00 - I told you that the angriest voices in Congress are mostly faking - that they’re just auditioning for certain news shows. Then Newsmax decided to prove my point. Watch:
00:00 - What if hundreds of thousands of North Carolinians couldn't afford health care and the federal govt said, "Ok we'll pay for 90% of it but the state has to pay 10%" and the state said, "No thanks, bc Obama." Imagine how nuts that would be. Now realize that's exactly what happened.
- Aaaand they just did it *again.* They brought us into session yesterday, saw all the Dems were there, so they called a recess, then another, then another, then another, then another, but every time we came back all the Dems showed up. So they cancelled the vote.
- Check this out - it’s a video that shows political corruption in our state Senate happening *in real time.* First I point out that GOP leadership keeps canceling the veto override vote every time all the Dems are present - hoping they can catch us unaware and override the veto.
00:00 - I've officially been drawn out of my congressional district by a small group of politicians. It’s blatant corruption, but I’ve got news for them: I’m running for Attorney General, and I’m going to use that job to fight political corruption. Join us: jj4nc.com/social
00:00 - Thank you, North Carolina. It’s an honor to be your next Attorney General, and I’m ready to get to work.
- The people of Georgia made this Covid relief bill possible. Now we need another Southern state to step up. North Carolina - you ready?
- MORE Breaking: GOP leaders say they will *not* appeal the court's ruling striking down our maps. That means we are 100% certain to get new maps for our state House and state Senate, and get them very quickly. This is simply remarkable. A fair map in North Carolina.
- This morning there was a political earthquake in North Carolina. A legislator in the state House announced she was switching parties from Democrat to Republican. I want to make sure you understand how dramatic the impact of this one switch will be. [thread]
- With gratitude, I hereby resign from Congress effective midnight tonight. It was an incredible honor. Here's some of what I learned:
00:00 - Hey folks - I'm officially running to serve North Carolina in the U.S. Senate. You deserve leadership that listens and learns. So we're making this a true 100 county campaign. This is Day One. Your support now means a lot: secure.actblue.com/donate/jeff-ja…
00:00 - Every time I hear some member of Congress call our military "woke" I check to see if they actually served and you'll be shocked to hear it's always a biiiggg nope.
