Senator Thom Tillis endorses Left-Wing NC Superintendent

Embattled U.S. Senator Thom Tillis comes out to support another embattled Republican: NC Superintendent Catherine Truitt.

Embattled U.S. Senator Thom Tillis comes out to support another embattled Republican: NC Superintendent Catherine Truitt.

Catherine Truitt just announced a fundraiser with a star-studded lineup of GOP millionaires and billionaires like SAS founder Jim Goodnight and auto parts king Temple Sloan. The invite packet indicates that Truitt is explicitly raising funds to save herself from inevitable electoral defeat in the March 5th primary.

Speaking on Truitt’s behalf is Senator Thom Tillis, arguably the most divisive lawmaker in the eyes of the state’s GOP primary voters. Last year, North Carolina Republicans censured Tillis over his repeated votes for far-left laws.

Tillis enshrined gay marriage in federal law. The senator lobbied his GOP colleagues to vote for the "Respect for Marriage" law but only a few, including him, voted for the bill.

Tillis also enthusiastically supported Biden's gun-grab bill that would allow judges to predict dangerous behavior and issue orders to prevent it by revoking Second Amendment rights. Judges, like anyone else, cannot predict the future, and many law-abiding gun owners could lose their Second Amendment rights.

Last week, Tillis blamed Donald Trump’s influence for blowing up talks for Biden's signature border bill that rewards illegals for entering America. In the Senate bill, two-year work permits will be issued sooner instead of taking months to receive as is the case now. The Democratic mayors of cities like New York and Chicago have made this demand for months.

Senator Tills' support for Catherine Truitt makes sense. Last summer, Truitt participated in a political roundtable to support Tillis' gun-grabbing bill that also funds school counselors.

Over her tenure, Truitt has angered the Republican base by doing the following in her role as Superintendent of Public Instruction:

• Hiring and promoting hard-left Democrats in her administration

• Allowing teachers accused of child sex crimes to keep a teaching license

• Offering CRT training for teachers across NC

• Delaying the Republican Parental Bill of Rights

• Allowing a Wilmington school to close to American children so illegal aliens can use it
  

By supporting far-left policies, Tillis has made our county more dangerous, Truitt has made our schools more dangerous for the same reason.
