@LorettaBoniti Loretta, thanks for all you’ve done! Good luck in whatever is next.

A little bit of breaking news this evening. After 25 years in journalism - 16 here in NC- I’m hanging up my microphone. Thank you for sharing your stories w/me- so I can share & inform viewers. It’s been an honor to bring you the news! #ncpol My last night on the desk is Monday

@FordPorter1 @NC_Governor @sadieweiner @jordandmonaghan Enjoyed working with you Ford. Good luck in the next chapter.

@jmonkatthestate John, thank YOU for your service!

Hundreds and hundreds of Fort Jackson soldiers, Jr ROTC cadets a dozen-plus high schools, police and veterans marched down Sumter St in Columbia SC for Veterans Day today. As a long ago Army veteran, I can say soldiers’ boots today look more comfortable than ones we wore

@JoeBrunoWSOC9 Congratulations! Your life will change. In good ways.

I am now officially on paternity leave so I am taking a break from news coverage. Thanks as always for following along. I’ll be back on election night and then again on November 25.

@JudgeBobOrr Wow! Be safe.

This is Bolens Creek Road in Yancey County. It’s not even by the river and the road is gone. From this point it’s still 10 miles to my place along the river.

@SusanPage @USATODAY You’d be perfect!

Exciting personal news! A NYC headhunter has asked me if I would be interested in applying for a job at. . . @USATODAY.

@DougHeye @kasie Obama likes Midwood Smokehouse.

For reporters covering the Trump rally, if you’re looking for good traditional BBQ, I don’t know what to tell you. As @kasie documented so well in 2011, NCers don’t look to Charlotte for BBQ. Maybe that’s changed, who knows. politico.com/story/2011/02/…

@michaelkruse Good thing nothing has happened while you’re gone!

I’m here because my girls wanted so badly to be here. But goodness gracious Taylor Swift puts on one hell of a show.

@choosesam @JamieBollWBTV @WBTV_News @LevineCancer Congratulations Jamie! So happy for you.

@JamieBollWBTV @WBTV_News @LevineCancer Congrats, Jamie!

The bell has been rung, treatment is over and the prognosis is excellent. Couldn’t have done it without my family, my friends, the whole crew at @WBTV_News and the amazing people of @LevineCancer Thanks to all.

Hang in there Jamie.

@_lucillesherman Congratulations!

Some news: I had a baby! Been learning the ropes of this motherhood thing instead of eating, sleeping & breathing politics, & it's been the greatest joy of my life. One thing about caring for a newborn: It'll remind you what actually matters. See you in a couple months, #ncpol!

Make them stop saying “DEESantis.”

.@Eric_Frederick and #TheAssemblyNC go deep into the GOP race to replace Rep @PatrickMcHenry in NC's 10th District. The March 5 primary will be for all the marbles in the safe R district.

.@NPRInskeep Enjoyed your Lincoln book. Good read.

Congratulations to Jesse! But sorry you’re leaving Charlotte.
