If I was a business looking for a new site, a public announcement that local law enforcement wouldn’t enforce a law banning assault weapons would make me look elsewhere. Ignoring the law is bad for business. wtvr.com/news/local-new…

@sthorn_23 Not in this case. They both deserved it. The umps handled it perfectly.

@CPhilly19 Nope. Should have been tossed the instant it happened. No run. That's the only way to stop this garbage.

You can’t do this shit and not expect to get ejected. I love emotion in sport as much as anyone but you know the rule.
The real solution is this … introduce a WARNING to college baseball.
No other sport tosses players on a first offense like baseball.

@MarkWarner How come you were not concerned about any of this 4 years ago?

Prices are skyrocketing from the grocery store to the gas pump.
But Trump’s top priorities are securing a slush fund for violent Jan. 6 criminals and building himself a golden ballroom.
When will he do anything to lower costs?

More than 1 million Virginians have no access to paid sick days. That changes now.
Today I signed paid sick leave into law for Virginia — which means:
✅ 1 hour of paid sick leave for every 30 hours worked with up to 5 paid sick days per year
✅ Full-time AND part-time workers covered
No one in Virginia should have to choose between their health and their paycheck.

There’s been no regime change in Iran. We didn’t end their nuclear program. They’re more empowered to control the Strait than ever.
So why have American servicemembers paid with their lives, and why have we spent billions on this war?

@christianfiveoh Doesn't get much harder than that. Praying for you.

Pepper, the dog you have seen in so many of my videos, passed away yesterday.

Just a friendly warning. We don’t even make $200k per year in Congress despite working nearly 140 days. If we aren’t properly compensated, a lot of us will go to the private sector and you will be left with some real idiots in Congress.

Inflation just hit a 3-year high, gas prices are out of control and life under Donald Trump is unaffordable.
But this guy spent all night rage-posting on social media.
Can someone do a wellness check?

Virginia voters made their choice - and it’s deeply disappointing to see partisan judges override that decision to give Donald Trump what he wanted.

@Serenitee_Sam No a Westinghouse, it is an Ideal Slider. Manufactured by Watlington Manufacturing in Bloomington, IL
English
They just don’t build them like they used to.
This 1955 7-Up Westinghouse slider is a masterclass in mid-century design. Back then, a dime didn’t just buy you a drink; it bought you an experience. No digital screens, no "out of order" software glitches—just pure, mechanical genius.
There’s a certain magic to hearing that bottle slide through the rack and pop out ice-cold. It reminds me of those days when things were built to last a lifetime, not just until the next upgrade.

@MarkWarner Asks the man that voted for every single spending bill put forward during the Biden administration...
English
Americans can’t afford the cost of living, and Trump’s solution is to spend $1 billion on a ballroom. When will my Republican colleagues say enough is enough?
English
@MarkWarner Actually that is exactly what happened. Our democracy, which is actually a Republic, only functions based on the rule of law and the entire redistricting fiasco broke the law.
English
Justice wasn’t served today in Virginia. We must continue to work to preserve and protect our democracy.

@kenmartin73 Don't you think there is enough in Minnesota to be worried about...

The Virginia Supreme Court just rejected the will of the voters.
Democrats are exploring every legal pathway to protect the integrity of Virginia’s elections.

BREAKING: The Virginia Supreme Court has voted to overturn the results of the state’s special election. This decision silences the voices of Virginians who approved an updated congressional map that levels the playing field ahead of the midterms. The fight continues.

What would you call this Presidential Team?

@GovernorVA Maybe you should ask the soon to be aborted babies what they think.

Virginia is the only state in the South that hasn’t restricted women’s reproductive rights since the Dobbs decision. And under my watch, it will stay that way.
In Virginia, healthcare decisions about contraception, fertility treatments, and reproductive care will continue to be made between women and their doctors — not by politicians. That’s a promise I’ve made, and it’s a promise I intend to keep.

ALL Virginians will now have access to 12 weeks of paid leave when caring for a new baby or sick loved one. This makes life better for millions of people who will no longer have to lose out on months of pay during life's best and worst moments
Huge thanks to patrons @JenniferBoysko & @BrianaSewellVA and @SenLouiseLucas @ssurovell @SenatorLocke @SpeakerDonScott @DelegateTorian and all legislative supporters, and finally @SpanbergerForVA for signing this landmark measure into law!
Governor Abigail Spanberger@GovernorVA
🚨NEWS: Virginia now has Paid Family and Medical Leave! Working Virginians will no longer be forced to give up their paycheck to welcome a child or care for a loved one facing a serious illness. A historic step forward for the people who power Virginia’s economy.
