VA's loudest Dem with a spreadsheet · Digital strategist · DNC Youth Council · As seen in: WaPo, CBS, Daily Beast, Fox News · AMDG✝️ · Opinions are my own

The DNC finalized the 2028 primary calendar. Virginia votes February 29. The Mother of Presidents finally gets a protected slot. The window opens in South Carolina and closes here. All in the South. We are the last look before the field closes. Let’s do this.

The chair of Virginia’s State Corporation Commission was a senior attorney at NextEra until 2024. In April she recused from a NextEra case over a 2.4-mile power line. NextEra is now buying Dominion for $67 billion. Largest utility merger in US history. She has not recused from that one.

Dems who cop to the Right’s stance of “not letting men in women’s locker rooms” don’t get any credit from the Right just like everyone said they wouldn’t so what’s the point in giving it any air? Throwing a small group of people under the bus for zero lift is just a bad look.

IA Dem House candidate Sarah Trone Garriott says she opposes “letting men in women's locker rooms” in her latest ad

In 2023 she voted AGAINST legislation that prohibited men from accessing women’s locker rooms. 

Anything to say about your voting record, @SarahforIowa ?

Apple got $2.2 billion back in tariff refunds. Amazon got $600 million. Nike got $300 million. The tariffs cost the average household about a thousand dollars last year. The refunds are going out. Just not to you.

JD Vance, Stephen Miller, Karoline Leavitt, and anyone else in this administration who has had children recently has to answer the question: are you putting your own children at risk by following these new guidelines or is this all to play to your misinformed base?

On August 5 Virginia regulators ordered Dominion to write a tariff putting transmission costs on the data centers that cause them. Dominion has ninety days. A Florida company’s sixty seven billion dollar purchase of Dominion is in front of that same commission right now.

When it comes to Spencer, every accusation is a confession. Dude literally used fake AI videos to campaign and said he had polls showing he was going to win this Fall and couldn’t even make it past the primary. Take several seats, Hills supporting character.

They use fake polls, they use 3rd world bots on their X accounts, they cheat wherever they can to give this false impression of popularity & inevitability of the socialist virus, because the language of the communist is the lie. These psychos aren't popular, they're just scammers.
VOTE! Don't let commies run anything. Not even dog-catcher. You've seen how the DSA people treat dogs, anyway.

Kalshi opened betting markets on clinical trials in July. You can currently bet on whether a breast cancer treatment gets approved. And on what date. A researcher who runs trials says a pharmacist with money on it could adjust the infusion rate. Kalshi’s answer is that the stock market is worse.

Joshua Pederson’s twelve year old son is in a clinical trial for a cancer that came back. He wrote about it in the Guardian last week. Kalshi opened markets on the trial results and FDA approvals July 16. Over $100,000 in bets day 1. Their answer to the objection is that the stock market is worse.

On July 8 the White House said POTUS was flying home from Ankara aboard the old Air Force One. He was moved to a different aircraft inside a catering truck. The press flew home on the decoy, shades down, believing they were with him. They learned otherwise from the Washington Post a month later.

We've been told that only men who weren't good enough to make it in professional male sports become trans women to play women's sports, and that tracks with Kanter and White, who were both forced into retirement because no one wanted to pick up their washed-up asses after being first-round flops.

Utah checked more than two million voter registrations over thirteen months and found twenty-seven noncitizens. The SAVE America Act would require every American to show a birth certificate or passport, in person, to register.

Todd Blanche was confirmed attorney general at 4 AM on a Saturday. 50 to 49. He gets sworn in this afternoon. The deciding vote came from Bill Cassidy, who already lost his own primary to a Trump endorsed opponent. They won’t stand up to him even after he ends their careers.

Mitch McConnell has not cast a Senate vote since June 14. That is 56 days of paid leave. The United States does not guarantee a woman who just gave birth a single paid day. And that’s thanks to guys like Mitch McConnell ironically enough.

Abigail Spanberger lost Galax 68 to 32 and showed up anyway. A Republican would have tucked tail and stayed at home when it comes to events in places they lost, like Jason was yesterday. She won Virginia by 15 and still went to one place that booed her. That is the job.

Governor Spanberger booed in Galax. Turns out when you break your campaign promise, attempt a Leftist power grab pushing an unconstitutional gerrymandering effort In order to silence rural Virginia voices, coupled with massive tax increases, it results in a frosty reception....

The most ironic thing is that James Fishback can only make political waves falsely reporting his opponents being investigated for crimes because we have a President and DOJ that literally does that all the time without consequences.

Falsely accusing someone of being under investigation is a dangerous form of weaponization. This claim is not true.
Congressman Byron Donalds is not under investigation.

James Fishback announces that Byron Donalds is under investigation for "federal sex trafficking" as it relates to disgraced Rep. Cory Mills.
Donalds has a 98% chance to win Florida's Republic...

The East Wing is already demolished. Today a federal appeals court said the ballroom replacing it needs Congress to sign off. 2-1. The dissent was Trump’s own appointee. He is appealing. The building he tore down is not coming back either way. www.cnbc.com/2026/08/07/t...

Trump says he will appeal to Supreme Court after lower court blocks White House ballroom

The appeals court placed its ruling on hold for 14 days to allow the Trump administration to appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.

A Florida company is buying Dominion for $67B. Largest utility merger in US history. It would create the world’s largest regulated electric utility. Virginia’s SCC gets 60 days and three judges to review it. Today the governor became the first in state history to intervene in an SCC case.

Cornyn and Tillis held Trump’s AG hostage over a $1.776B slush fund, then took a memo Blanche signed himself. Durbin: unenforceable, and revivable fifteen minutes after he’s confirmed. Both men leave Congress in January. They sold a vote for paper with an expiration date.
