Robinson’s bid for North Carolina governor ended in November when he lost to now-Gov. Josh Stein by nearly 15 points; it was the biggest landslide in a governor’s race in the state since 1980. Following his defeat, speculation swirled about a potential run for the U.S. Senate in 2026 or chair of the state Republican Party. His announcement puts an end to those rumors and likely came as a relief to state Republicans.  

During the first week of his second term as President, Donald Trump hinted at cutting back the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) during a visit to North Carolina to survey the damage from Hurricane Helene that devastated the western part of the state in September of last year. 

Judge Jefferson Griffin’s effort to toss out 65,000 ballots is impacting North Carolina voters across the board, including Republicans. In a new political ad, one Republican-led group is pushing back against Griffin’s attempt to overturn election results.

Labor Commissioner Luke Farley and State Auditor Dave Boliek, both of whom are newly elected Republicans, announced that they had directed their North Carolina agencies to remove all internal Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) policies. 

Of the myriad questionable picks Donald Trump has made for his cabinet nominations, few are as worthy of intense scrutiny as Pete Hegseth, Trump’s pick for Secretary of Defense. 

 Ahead of arguments in the federal appeals court Monday, Democrats and impacted voters held a press conference to condemn Judge Jefferson Griffin’s efforts to erase 65,500 ballots more than 80 days after the election.
