MOT Morning Open Thread with Roy Cooper News; August 6th 2026 [1] ['Chitown Kev', 'Belinda Ridgewood', 'Chloris Creator', 'Darrell Lucus', 'Bill In Portland Maine'] Date: 2026-08-06 Good Morning I have gone to see Roy Cooper at 2 events now, I have asked about doing Signs each time with Roy by standing inline and waiting my turn! I made a mistake of wearing the Daily Kos “Abolish Ice” t-shirt the first time, the staff was freaking out about that! They are spooked by anything the GOP can use to smear Roy!! Here is a Picture of my truck & trailer ready to haul signs! I believe the trailer will hold 1000 signs! truck about 300. plenty of room for tools and shovels & even my weed eater to cut the spot where I decide to put them!! e eeff Oil companies are reporting historic profits this quarter, while NC is struggling to fill up at the pump. Know who else is profiting? My opponent, Michael Whatley, thanks to his stock in these companies that he refuses to sell and the Iran war he continues to support. — Roy Cooper (@roycoopernc.bsky.social) 2026-07-31T19:19:43.491703226Z Too many politicians want to be something. I'm running because I want to do something. — Roy Cooper (@roycoopernc.bsky.social) 2026-08-05T13:48:52.10535657Z (71) WRAL: Roy Cooper Holds “Make Stuff Cost Less” Event in Wilson – YouTube I’m running for the Senate to make life easier today. To go after insurance companies ripping you off. To make sure you can retire with dignity. And to build an economy that finally values working people. — Roy Cooper (@RoyCooperNC) July 31, 2026 As I’ve traveled the state, I’ve heard how difficult it is to get by now. I want to make life easier for North Carolinians, and that starts with making stuff cost less. My opponent only wants to make life easier for his friends in DC. — Roy Cooper (@RoyCooperNC) August 4, 2026 Roy Cooper for North Carolina God bless my nerdy kids watching the election results. Lol. Tear of pride. — Wajahat Ali (@wajali.bsky.social) 2026-08-05T04:22:33.825Z This is an Open Thread! What’s going on in your neck of the woods?
