I really want to tell you about the proposed legislation to end ICE agreements in Virginia but the legislation is still in the work. I expect the bills to be introduced next week and hopefully head in committee in the coming weeks. Senator Salim and Delegates Guzman and Lopez will be patrons.
Happening now: ACLU of Virginia Executive Director Mary Bauer pushes for new legislation that will end Virginia 287 (G) agreements with ICE and local law enforcement.

Hello fellow legal experts. I am at the Virginia Capitol for the first day of the 2026 legislative session. My agenda today includes the Virginia Board of Elections and the hearing for 4 proposed Constitutional Amendments.

The CIA officer turned politician is having the coke dealer turned rapper perform for her inauguration party. Is this suspicious?

Just left the federal courthouse for where a judge set the trial date for Sprink to begin on March 16. There is a pending issue on the indictment signed by Lindsey Halligan who does not have a valid appointment. The case is still going on as planned but that could alter Sprinkle's charges for CSAM.
Just left the federal courthouse where Sprinkle was denied a conditional pre-trial release. Defense argued that Sprinkle wasn't a flight risk because he traveled to England and Canada after the FBI searched his apartment. FBI didn't charge Sprinkle for 2 months.
CBS 6 is reporting a Democratic staffer has been arrested for distribution of CSAM. I personally wouldn't recommend reading the criminal complaint because it includes graphic detail.

well gosh that’s pretty embarrassing, imagine having an in-house PR/pseudo press corp that’s better funded than any local media outlet, and they don’t even flag key news articles to the president! for shame
Senator Creigh Deeds asks President Beardsley about a recent article about how his resume removed references to diversity. Beardsley says he hasn't seen the article.

Lots of lying by the UVA Rector today! Multiple instances in this thread.
Senator Deeds asks UVA Rector Rachel Sheridan if the UVA board of visitors had been working with Governor Youngkin. Sheridan denies and says that the $4500 FOIA involving texts shows that she didn't work with Youngkin.

When I talk about leaving the door open for Trump voters, and about looking for recruits instead of alliances or convenience, this is exactly what I mean

No one had to compromise any values here. No one made the left more paletable by throwing trans people under the bus. And yet, here she is

Green Bay loses by 4 points. Green Bay's kicker misses a field goal and an extra point. Green Bay's kicker was accused of sexual assault. Green Bay hired kicker after sexual assault accusations. All of these things are related.

I'm at Monroe Park in Richmond, Virginia where there might be an anti-ICE protest at 7 pm. Currently a bunch of Richmond Police cruisers have circled the park.

Abolish ICE is the moderate position, keeping ICE is an extremist position.

I don't want to share the video but you are going to see it somewhere. You'll see an ICE agent shoot a legal observer as they attempt to drive away. If there's any humanity in you, you'll be angry. I want you to stay angry at the people who are lying to cover this up.

I watched one episode of the John Fredericks Show and it's terrible. Fredericks is gross, incompetent, and whiny. There's a warning for Joe Morrisey at the end of this video.
