Virginia is now the FIRST state in the South to have a Paid Family and Medical Leave program.
It won't be the last.

Hey Loudoun County, heads up:
Your Board of Supervisors is creating a new county-taxpayer-funded "short-term rent supplement program."
Applicants can qualify for six months of rent payments without having any work or citizenship requirements. Applicants can reapply as needed.
FISCAL IMPACT: Per the proposal, "the fiscal impacts are unknown at this time."
Now that the federal ARPA funds can't cover the rent, Loudoun County taxpayers are being asked to pick up the tab in the county's coming 2028 fiscal budget.

A proposal with sweeping consequences for Loudoun County was quietly placed on the “consent agenda”—a mechanism meant for routine items that pass without discussion. There is nothing routine about this. Brought forward by Supervisors Juli Briskman @SupBriskman and Koran Saines @Koran4sterling, this plan would create a taxpayer-funded rent supplement program with: ❌ No work requirement ❌ No minimum income requirement ❌ No citizenship qualification criteria That is not compassion guided by common sense. That is policy without guardrails. Attempting to move something of this magnitude through the consent agenda—without debate, without scrutiny, without public input—is not just inappropriate. It’s unacceptable. Loudoun County families are working hard, paying rising costs, and doing their best to stay afloat. They deserve transparency. They deserve accountability. And they deserve to have a voice before policies like this are even considered—let alone advanced. This proposal raises serious, unanswered questions: ❓Who qualifies? ❓How much will it cost the tax payer ❓What limits exist? ❓How do we ensure this helps people move forward rather than trapping them in dependence? These are not minor details. They go to the heart of fairness and responsible governance. Sound policy requires balance—compassion paired with responsibility, support paired with expectations. This item must be removed from the consent agenda immediately, opened for full Board debate, and subjected to a proper public hearing. That is not political. That is the minimum standard the people of Loudoun County should expect. Sunlight is not optional in decisions like this. It is essential. @NickMinock @LoudounNow @HUDgov

Why protect child rapists, @GovernorVA? Help me understand how people like this benefit Virginia. I don't get it.
Fox News@FoxNews
DHS isn’t holding back against Governor Abigail Spanberger and local lawmakers in Virginia after re-arresting an illegal immigrant accused of raping a child who was released back on the streets. In 2025 Walvin Victor Hugo Garcia was charged with raping a child, aggravated sexual battery of a victim under 13, and distributing drugs to a minor. Virginia officials ignored ICE's detainer request at the time and allowed him back into the community - ICE is now calling out the politicians who put others' lives at risk: "This sicko is out of our communities. Governor Spanberger and Fairfax sanctuary politicians are playing Russian roulette with American lives by releasing criminals from jail into American neighborhoods.”

"Guys, we just need to unite with the Left" somehow always turns into giving the Left everything they want in exchange for nothing.
Does anyone with a triple-digit IQ honestly believe for one moment that the Left is going to abandon its quasi-religious commitment to mass migration, open borders, transgender ideology, oikophobia, pro-criminality, DEI, anti-White hatred, state-sanctioned misandry, and forced redistribution of wealth from Middle America to the Progressive NGO complex and the managerial class who staffs them?
Anyone dumb enough to suggest a "Left-Right Alliance" has no idea how politics actually works, and they're being dog walked by Marxists who see in them the same markers of a useful idiot that Lenin saw in the lumpenproletariat.

Free rapes in Virginia under @FairfaxDems
Nick Minock@NickMinock
🚨NEW: Fairfax County Commonwealth's Attorney Steve Descano's office reduced a rape charge (up to life in prison) against Alberto Ruiz Mendoza to assault and battery. Mendoza is now walking free. His sentence time was 90 days and his entire sentence was suspended. Descano also dropped the gun possession by an unlawful alien charges, a brandishing a firearm charge, and a threat in writing charge.

It's hard to overstate the sentiment on the R side to equalize the gerrymandering score. Democrats having a Paul Bunyan-sized thumb on every scale with no GOP response is no longer acceptable play.

Tonight is turning into a total landslide for MAGA in Indiana. RINO Greg Walker is on the verge of losing his primary as well. 4 incumbents are heading for defeat at the moment.

@marklivesthings If only all of those gun owners had sholled up to the polls….

At the range:
RO: "Is that an MP5?"
Me: "Just a clone, but yes."
RO: "I don't see many, but I've seen four or five just today."
Me: "Well, it was my last chance to get one legally in Virginia."
RO: "That's what all the other guys said, too."
Nothing sells guns like gun control.

Republicans in Congress could have voted to dissolve all the District and Appellate courts that were obstructing Trump with frivolous nationwide injunctions beginning in March 2025. This has been done before in American history. The Jeffersonians dissolved at least 16 circuit judgeships immediately after they took power in 1801 because they were all staffed by Federalist ideologues.
They also could have allowed the Senate to go into recess for at least 10 days shortly after Tump took office in order to allow him to fully fill out his administration and avoid frivolous confirmation battles with Democrats.
They did neither of these things. In fact, the Senate continues to hold pro forma sessions to this day for no other reason than to block Trump’s ability to make appointments without getting Senate approval, and they continue to allow rogue Biden judges to block every other action Trump takes.
At a time when Trump’s biggest decline in the polls is driven by Republicans and GOP-leaning independents, themselves, the institutional apparatus of the Republican Party is essentially sabotaging the administration because they’re quietly at war with the Republican base itself.

Young people who grew up in Virginia want to stay — but cannot find an apartment they can afford. Families who have saved for years still cannot compete in the housing market. Seniors on fixed incomes are watching their rent climb higher every year.
We have a housing shortage in Virginia. And until we address it, prices will keep rising.

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐇𝐈𝐒𝐓𝐎𝐑𝐘 𝐎𝐅 𝐆𝐄𝐑𝐑𝐘𝐌𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐄𝐑𝐈𝐍𝐆: 𝐑𝐄𝐏𝐔𝐁𝐋𝐈𝐂𝐀𝐍𝐒 𝐇𝐀𝐕𝐄 𝐁𝐄𝐄𝐍 𝐆𝐄𝐓𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐑𝐎𝐁𝐁𝐄𝐃 𝐅𝐎𝐑 𝐃𝐄𝐂𝐀𝐃𝐄𝐒.
The press now calls every Republican-drawn map “𝘦𝘹𝘵𝘳𝘦𝘮𝘦 𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘪𝘴𝘢𝘯 𝘨𝘦𝘳𝘳𝘺𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨.” The data tells a different story. Democrats invented the practice. Democrats perfected it. 𝐃𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐜𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐬 𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐬𝐭 𝐞𝐱𝐚𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐬 𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐬 𝐭𝐨𝐝𝐚𝐲.
The term comes from 1812. Massachusetts Democratic-Republican Governor Elbridge Gerry signed a state-senate map so contorted one district resembled a salamander. 𝐇𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 “𝐆𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐲-𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫.” Democrat-controlled Southern legislatures used the same tool to lock out Republicans for 150 years.
Today’s blue-state House delegations relative to vote share:
Massachusetts: 9D-0R. ~30% Republican voters.
Connecticut: 5D-0R. ~35% Republican voters.
Rhode Island: 2D-0R. ~38% Republican voters.
Maryland: 7D-1R. ~35% Republican voters.
New Jersey: 9D-3R. ~42% Republican voters.
𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐚: 𝟒𝟑𝐃-𝟗𝐑. ~𝟒𝟎% 𝐑𝐞𝐩𝐮𝐛𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐯𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬 — 𝐲𝐞𝐭 𝐛𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐲 𝟏𝟕% 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐬.
The 2024 House popular vote was roughly 𝟓𝟎.𝟓% 𝐑𝐞𝐩𝐮𝐛𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐧 / 𝟒𝟕.𝟔% 𝐃𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐜𝐫𝐚𝐭, yet the seat split came out 220R-215D — a margin only five seats wide. With proportional maps, Republicans would hold a 30+ seat majority. The structural Democrat gerrymandering in coastal states ate the rest.
The doctrinal layer: the 1965 Voting Rights Act, as interpreted by the courts for fifty years, required “𝐦𝐚𝐣𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲-𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲” 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐭𝐬 that packed Black voters into Democratic enclaves and bled competitiveness from surrounding suburbs. Clarence Thomas called it out for thirty years. The 2025 SCOTUS rulings finally let states draw race-neutral maps.

As usual, Liberals are arsonists posing as firefighters.
Below are direct excerpts of the Code of Virginia from § 24.2-304.04. Standards and criteria for congressional and state legislative districts:
“5. Districts shall be drawn to preserve communities of interest. For purposes of this subdivision, a "community of interest" means a neighborhood or any geographically defined group of people living in an area who share similar social, cultural, and economic interests. A "community of interest" does not include a community based upon political affiliation or relationship with a political party, elected official, or candidate for office.”
“7. Districts shall be composed of compact territory and shall be drawn employing one or more standard numerical measures of individual and average district compactness, both statewide and district by district.”
“8. A map of districts shall not, when considered on a statewide basis, unduly favor or disfavor any political party.”
All of this is still on the books, irrespective of any referendum to give the General Assembly the power to redraw districts. Nothing has eliminated this statutory law, and no bills have passed the General Assembly to repeal them. The referendum just changes who can draw the map, not what legal standards the map must satisfy.
Does this look like a “compact” district to you? That preserves a “community of interest”? That doesn’t “unduly favor any political party”?
Of course not.
But none of this now matters because you guys spent the last dozen years stripping the law of its authoritative veneer and exposing to us that politics is entirely about raw power.
You guys wanted a war of convictions where will to power trumped all existing written and unwritten norms. Fine, have it your way. But don’t bitch about the other side casting aside centuries of norms and traditions in turn to treat politics the same way.

Ron DeSantis just intentionally violated his state's Constitution, which explicitly prohibits partisan gerrymandering. These people do not care about the law—only power.

@davidshepardson @SpiritAirlines So, all of the OTHER airlines didn't pay the increased prices too?

.@SpiritAirlines cites high fuel prices in court filing: “ the material additional costs to Spirit proved to be too much for its available liquidity to absorb… When fuel prices spiked and stayed high, and it became clear to the Debtors that the reorganization contemplated by the Plan was no longer feasible due to the unforeseeable circumstances, the Debtors worked quickly to seek sufficient incremental capital to sustain their operations.”

I found some wealth you can reallocate. Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS) • Superintendent Michelle Reid: Base salary of $424,146 (as of late 2024 contract extension through 2028), with potential increases via district-wide adjustments (could approach ~$491,000 by end of contract).

This video should be broadcast 24/7. The Muslim Brotherhood leader explains in his own words that, after 700 years of failed attempts to conquer Europe by force, they are now conquering it peacefully with the help of naive Western governments. The EU's weak and corrupt politicians have caused a disaster of biblical proportions. This won't end well.
