I hope (and pray some, too) that this will go to court and suffer a serious smackdown.

I don't know who the couple in the above video are, but they make it obvious that this redrawing of the maps is about their hatred for President Trump, rather than about doing what's right for the state or the country.

Rep. Dan Helmer is leading the charge for Spanberger. This is how well he understands the basics in life like, umm, parking. He then parked this RV in a No Parking area and because of his position, was never ticketed or towed.

New congressional map could turn Virginia's 6-5 Republican edge into 10-1 Democratic advantage ahead of midterm elections
quote:
Democratic state lawmakers in control of the Virginia legislature are fast-tracking a proposed new congressional map that would give the competitive state up to four more left-leaning U.S. House districts in time for this year's midterm elections.
The map, which Democratic Gov. Abigail Spanberger is expected to sign early next week, comes as Virginia voters are getting ready to vote this spring on a ballot measure which would give the legislature, rather than the current non-partisan commission, redistricting power through the 2030 election.
Republicans are calling the Democrats' redistricting effort an "unconstitutional power grab." Democrats are countering that it's a necessary step to balance out partisan gerrymandering already implemented in other states by the GOP.

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown

Are there any pics of Republicans with that demeanor?

As I discussed with a fellow ex-Virginian earlier this week, the Republicans when in power managed to have a balanced budget each year. The question people should be asking is what will the revenue from all these taxes be used to fund--items on the socialist agenda?

The other three, especially the blue tie guy and the chick, all look like evil cabinet members of a dictatorship from some movie. And Spanberger is Hillary’s doppelganger.

The rumor is that they are anticipating a huge shortfall from medicaid woke policies bankrupting it. (IIRC)
