“Weapons grade idiots” is just a tremendous turn of phrase
Aaron Fritschner@Fritschner
Virginia politics has produced some weapons grade idiots but Hung Cao, the guy Trump just put in charge of the U.S. Navy in the middle of the war with Iran and naval blockade, is one of the biggest idiots I've seen here

Republicans are nervous because their values don’t align with what working families need right now.
Carpetbagger Jorge Borrego fights for private schools and protects insurance companies over working people.
It’s time #HD118 is represented by someone from here, for the people.

I want to emphasize: Never forget to acknowledge the Black women who were pivotal in our victory in Virginia—@SenLouiseLucas, the mastermind behind 10-1, and @KDongo, who led this campaign with distinction!

Republicans: [unsavory tactics]
Media: Gosh, that’s some maneuvering.
Democrats: [punch back]
Media: We need to ask ourselves if this is the sign of a healthy democracy.

Louise Lucas didn’t get the memo that she isn’t supposed to fight back.

My biggest concern is Republican activists are moving to eliminating countywide voting all together — either through coordination at the county level or (eventually) statewide legislation.

Election Day in Virginia isn’t a game — and neither is redistricting.
These lines matter — so politicians don’t pick their seats, voters pick their leaders. That’s how you get real representation in Washington.
This is a temporary measure to make sure Virginians choose who represents them — not the other way around.
Go vote!

Politicians shouldn’t pick their voters. We should pick our politicians. 🗺️ TOMORROW, April 21, 6am–7pm, fix this rigged system. Vote YES for elections that actually represent all of us—Black, brown, rural, urban, everybody. We, the people have the power! #VoteYesVirginia
