Gov. Cooper is deflecting from the N&O reporter question about why he issued mandates on K-12 re-openings but not colleges.

#NCpol
It's yet another example of how arbitrary the Governor's #SHEOs have been. When he wants to, he drops the hammer (bars, gyms) - assuming near-limitless power. But when he doesn't (nursing homes, meat processors, colleges) he pretends his power is limited.
#NCpol
The Secretary of Public Safety is impressive how he can speak for such long periods of time without saying a single thing.

NC DHHS Secretary saying again that the statewide mask mandate is the reason why the numbers have declined.
No reporter will challenge her on this.
#NCpol
Democratic Governor pauses from criticizing the Republican #NCGA & Republican President to say he won't tell us if he'll debate his opponent... because he refuses to engage in politics during his #COVID19NC briefings.
