Thank you General Honore for your service and for speaking out. Your words hit home for many of us who do not want to see the military used as political pawns. Our National Guard should not be policing our cities.

Both Abigail Spanberger and Zohran Mamdani are younger than their predecessors and stress the issue of affordability. But Spanberger’s campaign is about competence and pragmatism, not guaranteed heart-stirring. http://nyer.cm/UheaUsD

Spanberger: I'm running I want to serve Virginia. My mother always used to say there is no higher calling than service to our country. And I served, first as a federal agent. And from there, I went on to serve as a CIA Case Officer, working to keep the American people safe

BREAKING: VA Democrats just passed a measure to let the state redraw its congressional map—an effort to offset GOP gerrymandering in states like TX & NC.
They’ll need to pass it again next year, so Democrats have to hold the VA House in Tuesday’s election.
