In the Span of 5 Minutes, a Police Officer Goes From Telling Kids to Wear Their Seatbelts, to Killing Heavily Armed Mass Shooter Who Killed 8 People

Democrats’ minds should be studied as they are so unique…. The level of open hypocrisy is astonishing.. your argument is exactly what all MAGA has been complaining about with Trumps policies. How many democratic judges have blocked his moves? Also, if you can’t see that that policy is a blatant anti democratic policy then you are just completely blinded by your partisan beliefs. And before you say it, I think all gerrymandering is wrong..

Let me explain what just happened in Virginia. Yesterday, 2.5 million Virginians voted. They passed a redistricting amendment 50.7% to 49.3%. Today, one judge threw out every single vote. 🧵

Love how you are staying true to the typical leftist mindset, it’s always “we understand you better than you know yourself.” You’re lost. You’re not thinking for yourself, you’re just being manipulated into dividing and demonizing everyone who disagrees. Most of you seem like deeply unhappy, hateful people lashing out. Enjoy that, I guess. As an FYI, not everyone who doesn’t agree with you is MAGA. That being said, MAGA does have quite a few positions that are better than the left’s. And here’s the hard part for you: saying that doesn’t make me MAGA, just like acknowledging that some left positions are better than the right’s doesn’t make me a leftist.

@TPayneCS1776 @SpeakerDonScott @rohanspatel pretty much all republican politicians. I have no problem calling myself a democrat now, in spite of previously voting for McCain, Gov McDonnel, Sen John Warner, etc. You're a republican. Own it.

Tonight, Virginians sent a message heard across this country: we will not let Donald Trump or MAGA Republicans rig our democracy. This started in Texas when Trump launched an unprecedented power grab to rig the midterms and tonight Virginia voters ended it and voted YES to stop his power grab. We trusted the voters, not politicians. We put this question on the ballot because we believe power belongs to the people. And tonight, the people of Virginia answered. In a special election with everything on the line, Virginians showed up in extraordinary numbers and chose fairness over fear, truth over misinformation, and democracy over political games. Let’s be clear about what this means: Virginia just changed the trajectory of the 2026 midterms. At a moment when Trump and his allies are trying to lock in power before voters have a say, Virginians stepped up and leveled the playing field for the entire country. Virginia has done this before — and tonight, we did it again. When the stakes are highest, we lead.

@KyZyVz @EndWokeness @RyanGonzalezCO Jesus you have it twisted.

@EndWokeness @RyanGonzalezCO Pretty dishonest to ignore that only one was voted on. Virginia was literally the result of Democracy. Republicans didn’t believe in giving voters a choice at all.

Texas Republicans take 73% of districts in a state they won by 15% Media: 🚨 FASCISM!!!! 🚨 Virginia Democrats take 91% of districts in a state they won by 5% Media: 😍 DEMOCRACY 😍

@EndWokeness Both are bad but Virginia is much worse.

@swd2 What is happening in Virginia is different then Texas. In Virginia they a nullifying 48% of the states voters. That being said all gerrymandering is bad. This is a very bad path for Americans..

Democrats: "If you redo the TX maps we're going to redo other states." Republicans: "Suck it libtards. Cope." Democrats: "Ok, so we're doing CA and VA." Republicans: "Wait.. no. What? This is the end of America. Stop. You guys are mean."

@LouiseM71436704 @DisavowTrump20 @23dwayne @SenLouiseLucas I 1000% agree with that!

@TPayneCS1776 @DisavowTrump20 @23dwayne @SenLouiseLucas I believe in helping people and that all are created equally! All the left/right stuff doesn’t matter!

Tonight’s win for a 10-1 Democratic map in Virginia would not have happened without Virginia Senate President Louise Lucas. RETWEET to thank @SenLouiseLucas for standing up for our democracy! 🇺🇸

@rohanspatel I haven’t paid attention to u until recently bc u r in my feed.. Jesus your takes are trash

Trump’s liquor cabinet is at it again… an embarrassing use of our military, and one that should have significant legal consequences.

Huh? That is the problem with the left. I am not maga. You all want to classify anyone that doesn’t agree with u as maga. You all are not on the right side of a lot of things. You ideologically captured and just regurgitate the same tired lines over and over again. And continue to be complete hypocrites. Take a step back and actually use some logic…. You have to see it.. it is so f’ing obvious

@TPayneCS1776 @DisavowTrump20 @23dwayne @SenLouiseLucas Of course you would say that! MAGA syndrome!

@DrewHLive @PressSec @WhiteHouse Dude I used to like some of what u posted, now I realize u r just hack like so many others

@PressSec @WhiteHouse If this were true, the war would be over and Iran would be conquered lmao These people think you’re stupid

The legacy media is doing PR for the Iranian regime... again. The truth is that under President Trump’s leadership, the U.S. military decimated the Iranian regime’s capabilities in just 38 days: Iran’s defense industrial base was almost completely destroyed. Iran’s ability to build and stockpile ballistic missiles and long-range drones has been set back by years. The vast majority of Iran’s ballistic missiles, launcher vehicles, and long-range attack drones were destroyed. The Iranian navy was annihilated with more than 150 of their ships sunk. And Iran’s air forces are functionally and operationally irrelevant now.

@RicBoHu2 @DisavowTrump20 @23dwayne @SenLouiseLucas What f’ing rights? That talk is tired. And calling out white supremacy tells all I need to know about u. You can’t think for yourself as u have been fully indoctrinated. Enjoy..

@TPayneCS1776 @DisavowTrump20 @23dwayne @SenLouiseLucas Spoken from a place of privilege. I don’t like gerrymandering either. But MY rights and MY citizenship are on the line and I need the Dems to get in the dirt with the christo-fascist white supremacist party that is the GOP and match their tactics to protect me and mine.

@OHENRY2264 @Trending704 @DisavowTrump20 @23dwayne @SenLouiseLucas Logic can be tough for the illogical.. if you cannot see what happened is wrong then there is no rationalizing with you.

@TPayneCS1776 @Trending704 @DisavowTrump20 @23dwayne @SenLouiseLucas Word salad. The people voted in the redistricting. It wasn’t forced on them. They had to go out and vote for it. That means it’s what they wanted. Full stop

I think any gerrymandering is bad, period. See, not a hypocrite. What is hypocrisy is democrats saying they trying to defend democracy but their actions show the exact opposite. 2 more things what is happening in Virginia is way worse then what happened in Texas. And doing something that u know is bad bc someone else did is horrible logic, ethics and well just makes that person a bad person.

@TPayneCS1776 @DisavowTrump20 @23dwayne @SenLouiseLucas I will just name the state! Texas!

@rohanspatel I do think it’s laughable that the person who claims we must protect democracy by doing anything to fight Trump, including pushing anti-democratic policies, needs to look in the mirror, especially since they justify it by saying ‘the other team did it

@TPayneCS1776 Your logic is lost. I hope you find it

Guess Elon missed the part where Trump kicked off a mid-decade gerrymandering spree - threatening red states that didn’t do so (see Indiana). He could now join with Dems consistently introducing legislation (blocked by the GOP for years) for a nationwide gerrymandering ban?

@RicBoHu2 @DisavowTrump20 @23dwayne @SenLouiseLucas I don’t like any gerrymandering. I see it as anti democratic. And when u say things like “my emperor” it just shows you are ideologically captured.. and the argument that they did so so will I, is not just horrible logic it is childish

@TPayneCS1776 @DisavowTrump20 @23dwayne @SenLouiseLucas Your emperor started this whole thing by ordering Texas to carve up their state for the GoP. At least the voters in VA and Cali got to decide, aka DEMOCRACY. Texans didn’t get to choose. So it’s YOU and your pissed off and bitter ilk who are the true hypocrites here. Stay mad😁

This is why I can stand the left anymore.. I am an independent who used to be a democrat. The democrat party has lost its way and as a result some of my beliefs have become more conservative but I am by no means a republican. Bottoming is the democrats are hypocrites. “The defenders of democracy” that tearing down our core tenets of democracy.

@TPayneCS1776 @SpeakerDonScott @rohanspatel I love it when a Trump voter tries to lecture a democrat about character 😂🤡 You may tell yourself that you're an independent, but your entire profile is filled with rightwing, MAGA talking points. You're a republican you just don't want to admit it for some dumb reason.

@LouiseM71436704 @DisavowTrump20 @23dwayne @SenLouiseLucas What did I say that hypocritical? Please do explain. Thx

@TPayneCS1776 @DisavowTrump20 @23dwayne @SenLouiseLucas Look at the kettle calling the pot black!! You whole statement is hypocritical!

Again, you are proving how the left is incapable of true thought and consideration. This vote was a blow to our democracy if you cannot see that it is bc u r captured by your political beliefs.. let me ask you this, what do you think will happen next? Other states, red and blue, will do the same. That is not democracy that is blind hate for maga being used to justify the weakening of our democracy. So many Dems think they r righteous but they are misled, uninformed and for some odd reason so confident. Ignorance is bliss.

@TPayneCS1776 Retain? MAGA controls all levers of the federal government and forced red states to mid-decade gerrymander. This isn’t complicated, but apparently you’re not capable of following.

@OHENRY2264 @Trending704 @DisavowTrump20 @23dwayne @SenLouiseLucas Comments like this illustrate how the left is incapable of real thinking and so easily led astray and manipulated.

@TPayneCS1776 @Trending704 @DisavowTrump20 @23dwayne @SenLouiseLucas The people voted, democracy won
