Whatâs fascinating, Abi, is we donât have to take @jonesjayâs violent rhetoric out of context - he actually fantasized about putting bullets in a manâs head and watching his children die. Clearly, in context, Winsome is talking about death, and how weâre all going to die and be
My opponent has said some deeply disturbing things about abortion â claiming itâs âmurderâ and that âone day itâs going to be your turn.â That kind of violent rhetoric has no place in our Commonwealth.

I endorse the game-theoretical argument in this post. It's up to the Democrats to make the right next move in this iterated Prisoner's Dilemma by sending an expensive and reliable signal that they're going to give up lawfare in future election cycles.
On Tish James: Here's what you need to know. If the facts alleged in the complaint are true (which seems very likely), then Tish James committed garden-variety mortgage fraud, which plenty of normal citizens have been prosecuted for and convicted of. There's no novel theory, no

This is one of the most effective segments of any debate Iâve seen in some time. Well done, @WinsomeSears. The fact that Spanberger stands there with no response is chilling. No reassurance? No rebuke of Jay Jones? The silence is deafening.
WINSOME EARLE-SEARS: 'What Would it Take [Jay Jones]? Pulling the Trigger?' Virginia Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears, the Republican candidate for governor, questioned Abigail Spanberger why she hasnât asked Jay Jones to drop out of the race of state attorney general.

One of the ladies who approved these grants told me the Mars airplane project I was on "was overly white." It was one of 4 finalists, but wasn't selected and got defunded for more global warming satellites. Why I left science and entered politics.
For the record, I am against NASA cuts *in general* but it is impossible to ignore how completely deranged and ideologically captured NASA became in the past 5 years with race quota grants & race/gender obsessed comms (rather than science). It is no surprise it has to take its

"Jay Jones campaign will be kept comfortable. Abigail Spanbergers campaign will be resuscitated if that's what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother." - Ralph Northam Probably
I just got off the debate stage, where I outlined my plans to put Virginia â not the President, not a political party, not a personal agenda â first. Thatâs what you deserve, and thatâs what Iâll do as your next Governor. Help us get to the finish line: https://t.co/OCg64OrbWr

So much of policy development is like this. Please love grand theories but the details nobody thinks about matter a lot.
The procedural requirements in NEPA were added at the last minute. They weren't debated, because Congress wanted to get home for Christmas.

If the objectively wrong for a decade now angry bunny had the courage of his convictions AND was actually right, he could take $1 million from with an investment of $10k. Thats such a great deal from his POV, theres no reason not to make that bet https://t.co/7nWpuz9ztC

This is nonsense. If TF00t actually believed this, he'd put his money where his mouth is, and grow that cash by TWO ORDERS OF MAGNITUDE if he was right. But, he wont actually do this.
we all know how this will end..... 2028... if trump is still alive... he will declare an emergency and cancel the elections..... sending the military into cities every month is just acclimatization.

You are either lying or dumb. Or both.
The era of oil & gas is over - reserves are running dry and companies are pulling out leaving workers and communities high and dry Government urgently needs to make a plan to harness those skills for the green energy transition My piece for @prospect_uk on my Energy Jobs Bill:

The super Karens cost the US economy some $529 billion in 2022 through frivolous lawsuits. Thatâs a $4,207 tort tax on every US household. Often targeted against small businesses that are stunted and often bankrupted in extreme cases. Unlike big corporations, they have no legal

This is clearly true. Leftist terrorism has been tolerated for so long said terrorists forget what theyre doing is illegal!
Activist groups literally donât have any concept of the harm they do. They would literally kill helicopter pilots because it feels good doing so. Based on the outrage that followed Palestine Action being banned in the UK, they would likely be confused if they faced consequences

Govt redistribution doesn't even work well...which is insane considering the sheer scale of it. Taxpayers are robbed to buy votes.
The big sociological question I always pose: if we live in a world where >50% of U.S. government spending is just wealth redistribution, and likely >50% of GDP is spent by gov't, nonprofits, or legally-privileged sectorsâin what regards exactly do we have a "capitalist" society?

This is a one issue race. Jay Jones wants to kill Republicans in Virginia. He fantasizes about shooting them and their families. Heâs running for a position where he could protect people from being prosecuted for it. There is nothing Spanberger could possibly do or say thatâs
Earle-Sears was asking Spanberger directly to ask Jones to drop out and Spanberger and just looked forward without saying anything. Earle-Sears has talked about nothing but Jay Jones 13 min into this debate

There is an increasingly large share of Democrats who are childless. Broadly speaking, there are two ways to grow a movement: - Recruitment - Reproduction If Democrats don't reproduce, then their only path forward is recruitment.

This is how bad it went for Abby...Blue Virginia is saying we should not have debates. https://t.co/A94hSbyZlh
In sum, Earle-Sears spent the entire debate yelling, interrupting, dodging and LYING. Why do we even have these ridiculous things? https://t.co/3mcnTqYDY6

When youre complaining about the moderator, you lost...
Anyway, despite the awful right-wing moderators, etc., Spanberger clearly won tonight's debate...no mistakes, no gaffes, knew what she was talking about, and a much more even temperament than Earle-Sears, who just shouted the entire hour. https://t.co/3mcnTqYDY6

The biggest leftwing website in Virginia is not even trying to spin Spanbergerâs debate performance, just jumping straight to âwe shouldnât have debates.â
In sum, Earle-Sears spent the entire debate yelling, interrupting, dodging and LYING. Why do we even have these ridiculous things? https://t.co/3mcnTqYDY6

France's last government fell in 14 hours... So why not restore the Dual Monarchy?
Hear me out: - A man who speaks fluent French - A man known and respected globally - A man whose ancestors owned half of France anyway.

Incredible that they played this at the VA Gov debate. Local news stations are so much better than the national broadcasters at giving their viewers accurate information.
